I don't get it.

it's not funny anymore. It wasn't even funny the first time i saw it. now that we are into the hundreds of thousands of times it's been used, the originality appeal has just gone away.

The ONLY reason you are on these forums is to a) post b) read posts. it's not like you are here to listen or watch, you are here to READ. to bitch that something is a bit long to read or hard to understand (unless the english is atrocious of course) really screams "LAZY"

the person posting took his time and made and effort to post something, either READ it or DON'T and STFU.

finally in conclusion these calls for cliff notes really speak of the direction our society it going lately. the attention span of RATS is what you guys have. ADD everywhere.

If you're too lazy to make paragraphs, I'm too lazy to try and make head or tail of it.

I got asked for cliff notes when I was talking about my friend's funeral. The guy who asked got flamed pretty well for it, so there are some people out there just like you, me included.

i understand that SOME people aren't serious when the shout CLIFF NOTES, that they are actually just attention seeking whores that THINK it is humorous, tho it wasn't even that funny the FIRST time it was used.

but it is stilll annoying and not the slightest bit amusing.

I totally agree. When I see someone asking for Cliffs notes it just sounds like he's saying "I no read good, me have small brain, me need small words."

But unfortunately, for many members here they have such a hard-on for posting they can't restrain themselves even if they have nothing to say except something that's been said 500,000 times before.

Meh, the fact that it gets your panties in a wad is enough to validate its practice. Chill out and have a :beer:

I Agree it's disrespectful, but how many times have you've been disrespectful without even knowing it?

So I guess this rant highlights it.

Just one of those community subtleties we have to live with.

And Btw, people who don't eat their bread crust should STFU! lol . I'm going STFU right now and go to work!
