This trend of four part documentary thread posts is a tad tedious.

Half tempted to use Chat GPT and turn out a 36 paragraph post in a few seconds time. But, only the lazy half of me. So...

Perhaps it's a test to flag to Para the people who don't read before posting Big Grin

In all seriousness, it actually takes more time to write a brief, articulate, easy to follow post than it is to write a meandering, stream of conscious 35 paragraph post.

I'd be cool with that, if it was original thought instead of yet another posted full text of some linked article that drones on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on.

The symbol is used in editing, typesetting, etc. to indicate a paragraph.

The pilcrow, , is a handwritten or typographical character used to identify a paragraph. It is also called the paragraph mark (or sign or symbol), paraph, or blind P.

This mark -- -- indicates a paragraph. I was the first one to give you 35 paragraphs, per your request. What do I win?
