How often do you stop writing a post, and cancel it half way through?

A lot and basically because I can't be bothered to put what someone else has already said.

Does TC even know what "frequently" means?

Not often.
I don't want to waste the time I had spent typing something just to end up not posting anything.
As soon as I hit post reply, and start typing. At some point or another I end up hitting submit reply.
The only times I hit cancel reply is if I haven't typed anything yet, or had second & third thoughts whether I should express my opinion or not.
Yes yes, I know I make longwinded comments, but that's just me >.<
I should proof read my comments more, but I won't...
So keep in mind I'm filled with typos

Oh God, I do this way too much, but the problem is that I don't "cancel it half-way through". Oh, no, no, no... I'll write a full length post, clean it of any errors, make sure it's worded juuuuust the way I want it... and then not post it.
I think I have around 30 full posts I never made saved into wordpad, including one that's around 25 pages long, and probably another 30+ I just outright canceled without saving.
Trust me, it's... better this way.
I infrequently post on them although I have no idea what they're talking about since it like many many pages long and many many conversations at once. But sometime I cancel it and other times I actually respond to it.

All the freaking time. Either I realize halfway through that what I was going to say isn't necessary, I misunderstood the topic or I just give up for some other reason.
