Y'know, I seem to be having that problem a lot lately. Like, I'll be halfway through this, like, 15 page DIATRIBE and then it's like, y'know what? I don't want to write this any


15 PAGE?? eek


Well, nah, maybe not fifteen pages. =P Maybe... two paragraphs. xP


Wow, almost gave me a heart-attack

Happens to me a lot, especially late at night or on the weekend when I'm either drunk or suffering from insomnia. As a failsafe, I usually stop myself from posting if I only have half a sentence to say or I've written so much that my eyes/head hurt trying to look it over for errors. dead

Not a lot. I don't think so. confused
Yeah. I have no idea.

(Like the above, for example, has no input to the topic whatsoever, but nonetheless I posted it.)

If you think about it, a lot of people post useless posts anyway.
That, my friend, is called spam. smile

Let that be a lesson to you. mad

About half my potential posts end up unposted, primarily because I can't find a way of wording them that I like, and secondarily because I get half way through them and decide what I had to say was stupid and/or unnecessary.

I'm surprised to see that so many of you are holding back.
I've always figured, "It's the internet. Ultimate anonymity." If you have something to say, just throw it out there.

A lot of threads get boring pretty quick without the random posts and chatter, so think of it as helping the conversation flow better.

I don't know about anyone else, but I don't have any problem with saying anything I feel like, it's just that usually when I cancel a post it's because I feel as if I'm saying nothing at all.

I type something that's like a paragraph long then read it over about 5 times to check for typos then i either cancel it or cut it down to a sentence.

Ugh.. i really have to get out of this habit.

I always weigh out if the topic is worth posting before I start writing.
