What, three posts in this thread saying the same thing?

Consider this, and consider the OP, which cities day and time:

Imagine someone - you, maybe - watching your favorite show with your favorite host. Lots of good discussion about a news event - like a primary - and you're really paying attention.

Then, in the context of that show, they cut to some annoying personality - let's say Chris Matthews - and he does 90 seconds of off the hook gibberish.

Would you change the channel? And then change back. And if you see him still there, change the channel again. And then change back, hoping he's gone?

But you go ahead, post three times with the same thing. Do I hide my thread because you're still posting?

Probably not.

And as to simply posting about it, this is a DISCUSSION BOARD and that's what I felt like discussing.

You DO know there is a way you can avoid such discussion, right? Or you can do what you accuse me of doing.

Have a swell day.
