So, if you are here to entertain yourself, then go right ahead with your abundant "verbosity," but if you'd like to actually become part of a community of discussion (instead of treating it like a constant mental dumping ground), then you may want to rethink your intentions.

Of course there's going to be some self-entertaining—I'm going to volunteer time and effort to do something I hate?
I think I'm participating at least somewhat.
"treating it like a constant mental dumping ground"?
I make a list of videos with somewhat esoteric criteria, though most of the videos are quite listenable; I refer to a site I've spent at least several 10x as much time than I have here; and it's less than 72 hours since I've joined this site and just getting used to it. You somewhat make it sound like I'm some global warming denier who's ****ting bogus stuff all over the place.
Btw, can you give me a few links to this guy's threads or posts so I can see how similar/different they are to mine?
