I have this annoying habit of wishing to express my thoughts, sometimes wasting a few minutes of people's time by elaborating.

It is a good thing that I am an old man and won't live all that much longer, since I am ill suited for the age of twitter twittery where one is required to express the depth of one's thinking in as few words as possible, well laced, of course, with sarcasm wherever possible.

This may be why we have malicious idiots running the country, but no matter. Times are what they are.

You are, of course, correct.
