Look at current active posts (5 min if I look at comments), look at news mega (10 min if I haven’t looked at it in about 12 hours), sort posts by top 6 hours, see nothing new, sort by top 12 hours, see maybe 1 new post in my slop (2 min), sort by new and look at new posts (2 min), call someone a liberal (30 sec), sort by active again and then repeat
May I suggest: Think of a comment (1 min), reconsider that comment (5 min), realize you can kind of make a joke out of that comment (5 min), notice that in doing so, you now fail to make the point you intended to make (3 min), try to rework it (7 min), convince yourself it wasn’t a very good joke/comment anyway (1 min), abandon the whole thing and go to another tab (1 min), GOTO step 1
It really helps pad things out
