So true. I've pretty much gotten backlash most places, forums, social media etc for being a long winded gas bag lol. Unless I'm really in a hurry I'm not great at 140 character post it notes. I type the way I think, the way I'd speak. And if I'm trying to help someone I try to lay it all out as clear as possible so I explain myself and they grasp my point. Part of that's me thinking I fail to be clear rather than their not getting it.

Too often I've asked for help even with simple things. Maybe it's me that's dense. Like even an online game. How do you do this or that? And I get "on the screen click the thing". Do what?! What the fuck's 'the thing'. Maybe it works for others, maybe my esp is dull. I do prefer longer complete thoughts and sentences. My social media posts I'm sure make people groan. (Are fb responses supposed to be 6-8 paragraphs?) lmfao.

I haven't been quite as wordy lately, but have been known to do just what you're talking about.

In real life, I can make explanations EXTREMELY long, and have discovered that you can see in another person's eyes when you've "lost" them. They get to their saturation point and then just can't take in anything else, or they're too bored and just want to slink away. lol With me, I always just figured it was a natural result of writing program code for 30 years. Sometimes one needs to give background information in order to understand the matter at hand!

And yes, I write mostly like I speak, although I might go back and clean things up a little bit if there are glaring grammar errors or misspelled words in a post. Well, and there are some things I say in speech that I wouldn't want to include in a post - like the generous use of f-bombs that I picked up from my son. I swear I've tried to clean that up, but haven't been too successful.

"Click the thing" would make me lunatic crazy. That would be a person I'd want to hunt down like a dog.

All that to say....you aren't by yourself. Personally, I like long posts, so I'll read yours. :)

I three can go on quite a while at times. Other times I get fussed at for starting a sentence, ... wind up coming back later to finish. Wife hates it, I get told "use your words."

Not much time this weekend for VU. When I go out on road trips for work the weekends are for catching up on honey-dos and some rest... Back at it tomorrow then a week at home. I did sit out on the patio vaping while my dog was taking care of her business.

Oh double posts looks like the VU is having some issues because it is lagging today?

I needed a refill for my Quickie Mop and the local Ace Hardware didn't have it or a Supermarket. So was going to use Amazon or Ebay and I see a search result for Home Depot. Was $9.99 at Ace but is $3.42 at HD so I go to order for curbside pickup. NOPE not in stock~! So you get free shipping by tomorrow if you buy 2. So for a total of $7.43 I don't need to start my vehicle. Works for me~!

So I broke my New VooPoo Drag MAX by dropping it off the top of the refrigerator in the basement. Sucks because I bought 2 spare Pods (Tanks) and 2 Boxes of coils recently. Currently using it with a rubber band to hold the battery door closed and once I have a new one I will see what I can do to fix this one.

Found a good deal at Ecig Mafia, has anyone used them before? USA Company.

Want me to make it an Internal battery huh? LMFAO

Have to make some pins with nails or something to hold the battery door shut. Small pieces of plastic cracked off. I would say it wasn't strong but did take a 6 foot drop~!

Could not figure out why my Aro V2 with the mesh deck installed was getting crazy ohm readings ... checked coi, it was fine. went clean up the condensation on the Odin 250 and it was soaked. checked the atty again and realized it had a squonk pin installed . Ok I'm an idiot. looked in the box and wonder of the other pin is a sqonk pin also.

I can't stand when customers want to play games. Had one call before and try to tell me I told him 1/2 of what I estimated for an HDTV Installation in a commercial environment. I go so annoyed I told him this is the price so call me if you want it done and I hing up. Then when he called back I ignored his call and called him back 20 minutes later to hear why did you hang up I was going to ask when can you do it?

In this day and with what is going on I have no time for games. When I need to run to the Hardware Store across the street for some new bolts or whatever I am going to turn to him and say give me $20~!

First was tomorrow ASAP but now they didn't have the TV in stock so will be delivered on Friday morning. I told him call me when he has the TV there and I will tell him when I will be there because if I schedule him now and it doesn't come when they say I have to charge him for my time. You don't want to pay me to sit and wait for the delivery do you? OK! I will call you when it gets here~!

I can go without Vaping but I might see if I can park around back which will allow me to leave my tools in the truck and vape outside. Since it is a Vape and Smoke, Cigar shop NYS rules are No smoking. But vape shops used to be clouded out like crazy. With the PanDemic I am not sure on the Regulations.

Coffee was good this morn. Got phone call doctor appointments today. Know one for sure is 12:15. The other could be any time after 2, or not at all. Yay. Well, looking at the last two seasons of 3rd rock.

ETA: Kidney doctor: Given records, blood pressure + gout medication triggered further kidney disease. I had kidney disease prior to the yr & half I had the pain. Then, adding the gout medication triggered further disease.

Watch salt, diet. Get blood & urine test, ultra sound on kidney again. He'll "see" me again in a few months unless I present with more issues, then call, or arrange transport to his office. Don't go to E.R. for possible kidney stuff.

It's not terrible or gravely bad but he wants it watched.

Hubbs gave me a Yeti Rambler mug for Christmas. I had used his (which he got for a previous Christmas from a friend at his office) and loved it, so he got me my own (probably so I wouldn't monopolize his!). It keeps coffee hot as Hades for about 45 minutes, and it's still warm enough to taste good for hours longer. I'm still drinking the cup of coffee that was made at 8:15 this morning and it's good and warm.

I only drink one or two cups a day; more than that burns my stomach.

starting the 2ed pot of Flogers

I used to go through 6-8 pots per day. One of mom's friends was 12 pot a day addicted. Kind of afeared to drink more than three 10oz cups a day now. Hell kind of afeared to see doctors now too.

For all the "looking" what the local doctors did, none of them ever took my questioning if it could be kidney issues serious. I had pain a year and a half until finally someone thought "hey, let's refer you to a kidney doctor." And it was the same one that give me gout medicine. The kidney doctor said there are other medicines to use. Unfortunately, ...

Pardon me, ... fucking quacks!
