Boring!
Haven't you ever taken English 101 and been told not to be so wordy in your writing?

On a friend's FB post, someone commented that they approve of voter fraud if it will keep Trump out of office. Progressives have no integrity.

Anyone else catch Nikos's post yesterday on our FB group page? Seems he's warming up a bit to Mr Trump. ;)

W&P would be too much for me. If I can these days I pick up a book of short stories. I even FF the TV shows I've recorded.

Real progressives wanted Bernie Sanders, and they have a great deal of integrity!!! (In my humble opinion.)

But some folk will sit through a movie like Titanic (3 hours) or watch a ballgame for 4-5 hours, but it hurts their brain to read something worthwhile or significant. Mature Adults that care about what's going on in our government and the world have no problem reading long articles.
I just wish they'd keep their ignorant tirades to themselves. So tired of so-called Christians over 60 who never grow up, acting like 2 year-olds when they don't get their way or when no one is paying attention to them.
Must be miserable in their own lives so they stalk forums making a nuisance of themselves. Can't believe folk like that actually pastor churches. It's difficult to respect folk like that. And the tragedy of it is they NEVER grow up. Just continue to behave like a juvenile. How can anyone stand being married to such a clown? If you don't like reading long posts, keep it moving, you don't have to make stupid comments. It just makes you look like an idiot.

Reality check.
I have a friend who's very mature but unfortunately dyslexic. It's with difficulity he reads scripture at Bible Study so yes he would have a problem reading long articles.

At most Uni's essays have a minimum word limit which encourages wordyness.
A collegue sat down with his wife's tutor and argued against a low mark in her essay when it wasn't long enough. His story is that he showed the tutor that she'd answered the question as asked and supplied all the relevant information; anything else would be padding.
He won.
