You know what grinds my gears?
It's when people quote complete posts in their replies ... even when the post they're replying to is directly above theirs ... and worse when it includes several pictures.
My sanity hangs by a gossamer thread at the best of times, so can you do me a favour. If you need to quote, please do it selectively ... if not, just hit the POST REPLY button at the bottom left.
And the other thing that grinds my gears is Andy B's energy, creativity, and seemingly abundant time!! I'm gunna kick that kid's @ss one of these days
And then there's Martin ... and Stu ... and don't get me started on Perry!!!!
Thanks for listening ... I'm going to have a lie down now.

There there just take a powder and every thing will be better soon and you can console your self in the knowledge that at least I'm listening to you

Ssshhh..........Did you hear something ? Nope, my mistake.
The full run of quoting pictures gets tiresome too. Cut to the chase I say !!!
When I crack the sads I usually stay off the forums for reasons of sanity
And Andy needs a full time job. That'll sort him out in no time.

Perhaps it may reinforce your gossamer thread, to understand that the quoted post is only the on-screen manifestation. It isn't really as wasteful of resources as it seems. In effect, it's merely a self-generating link to the quoted material (sort of).
Granted, all the extra scrolling can be a PITA. But there's a lot more serious things to worry about.
Feeling any better now?
Cheers,

What do I care about system resources Joe?!?! I care about me ... I don't want to trawl through doubled up posts!! It's all about me Joe ... me!!!!
Andy B, Floody ... you quoted my full post even though it annoys me ... I get it ... now that's just comedy gold!! Hilarious!
I think Wal gets most points on the sympathy stakes. You guys!!!!
+1 on the scoliosis Andy B ... take care of it 'cos I can tell you it's gonna cause you grief as you get older. But yep, my marriage is great ... so make sure you work on your relationship too.
Okay everyone ... back to guitar talk please ... and no more full quote posts!!!!!

He may be 'english breakfast' at heart but he definitely needs the Chamomile variety to
try and curb the stresses he's struggling with.
And a bit of positive chi right up his chakra could help too.

Why do I bother ... fair dinkum ... why do I bother?!?!
I try to introduce a little constructive criticism to you philistines and these are the sorts of puerile, juvenile responses I get!! You should all be ashamed of yourselves!!
Get out into your sheds right now and do something creative to make amends ... AND POST PICS!!!!!!
