Has anyone written more words than Paul Markham at GFY? The true TL;DR king. - GoFuckYourself.com

Socks · 01-29-2012, 08:48 AM

I know there's people with a lot more posts than him, but surely nobody in the history of GFY has typed more characters than he has...

Anyone else even in the running?

I'm waiiiiiiting

B.Barnato · 01-29-2012, 09:15 PM

At the same time he has most likely written the most unread characters on GFY.

Socks · 01-29-2012, 09:21 PM

lol so true.. Every time I make an attempt at reading one of his posts I get like 20-30 words in and then think fuck this and move on.. And then 2 posts down there's another one, same length, and thankfully the pain of the first post is still fresh in my memory so I can avoid it with ease.

Hey Paul, honestly I'm not a Paul hater like many of the people here, but can we politely ask that you do a TL;DR on all your posts from now on? (it means Too Long, Didn't Read)

At the end of every post you write, say TL;DR and a one line summary of you what you just wrote. It's for the people who just can't set enough of their day aside to read your many insights.

While there have probably been people who've written more words, he certainly gets the crown for most repetitive words / broken record / usually wrong.

You can always tell a Paul Markham thread when you see one...it's always a new thread with a title along the lines of "Is traffic the king for successful online porn businesses?" or "Why free porn is killing this industry"

porno jew · 01-29-2012, 11:33 PM

how it's daily threads on internet regulation.

Paul Markham · 01-30-2012, 02:03 AM

I post reasons behind my thoughts. Rather than the usual replies that say nothing much. I guess your inability to read anything longer than a paragraph is your problem.

jimmycooper · 01-30-2012, 02:31 AM

I'd like to see Paul start a thread about ritalin babies.

C'mon man that was the obvious response. I'm asking you nicely. I'm unable to read YOUR posts longer than a paragraph. But I would read a brief synopsis.

raymor · 01-30-2012, 09:52 AM

If a long post starts with a one or two sentence summary / headline set off by a line feed I'm more likely to read it.

At least I'll read that sentence or or two, then decide if I want to read the supporting text. I'll also better understand the author's point if while reading the reasons or supporting text I know what thesis those reasons are intended to support.

I suppose it's a lot like headlines before articles - the headline tells me whether the article may interest me. With no headline, I'm not going to read four paragraphs in to find out what the post is about.
