And people who quote an entire post but don’t add anything to it.

There was a thread a couple years back where people were compound nesting replies to the point where the original text was so small it could barely be read.

"I'm yet another resource-consuming kid in an overpopulated planet raised to an alarming extent by Hollywood and Madison Avenue, poised with my cynical and alienated peers to take over the world when you're old and weak!" - Calvin, "Calvin & Hobbes" | |||
