I think NTs are a happy medium between either forging a diamond quarterly or shitting out coal non-stop, and a suitable vehicle for both the terse and the mundane.


Who says they have to be diamonds? But putting some sort of effort into posts is to the advantage of the writer, the reader, and the fucking board in general. As hilariously funny as AIM logs are, having to scroll down all of them to get to a post that actually says something is just annoying, and it makes caltrops look even more stupid than it is. And worry not about conversation slowing to a crawl - no posts will draw only slightly fewer viewers than a nonstop string of "Fag -nt-" posts will.

They also work well as a Hemmingwayesque tip-of-the-iceberg device - a simple "Fag -nt-" carries more weight around here than your average messageboard since it is often backed by an incredibly forked tongue.


No, it doesn't. Also, Papa called and he says it doesn't, either. "Fag -nt-" is the equivalent of saying, "Hey, how's it going?" It means nothing. It carries no weight. It is ignored immediately. If it says anything at all, it's "A thought hasn't materialized in my head yet regarding your post, but the lizard brain compels me to type."

I'm not saying this because you resort to the classic NT fag post nonstop, ES, I'm saying it because when you do actually put some effort into them, your posts are enlightening and a good read, at least 20% of the time, and that's 20% more often than "Fag -nt-" is.
