I found a quick article that completely describes most of the world around us these days. Especially in the days of Facebook where people think that we give a crap about their cat or that they have a rash and a hammer toe. In reality, no one really cares. Sure we may say “ah, that’s terrible”, but there’s only so many “ah, that’s terribles” that I’ll give you before I just totally delete your ass. Let’s talk about something more important, more interesting, less bonor-shrinking unless, of course, it can bring me quick and massive money. At that point, if the price is write, I will live through your bullshit.

Idiocy Levels Unaffected Despite Shorter Stories

Written by The Sarcasmist

There is a growing movement of people using the term ‘long story short’ appropriately. In recent weeks there have been growing reports of long stories being shortened in order to save the listener’s time.

As is the norm, people use the phrase ‘long story short’ as a tool to make up for their boring blather and trick the ‘listener’ into thinking that the story was actually short; however, more and more people are becoming wise to this scheme and are refusing to listen to stories (which are inevitably stupid). As a response the blathering public has had to switch their approach, spewing their inane nonsense about the uninteresting minutia of their lives in short bursts. This has not reduced the amount of idiotic stories but has significantly cut down on the time spent listening to them.

Note: Human behavior is often interesting, sometimes amusing, but almost always idiotic. Please don’t subject others to what seems interesting to only you, like how your cat’s health problems are causing you sleepless nights, or by insisting to describe a half-hour situation comedy (which the listener has no interest in) scene-be-scene.
