Great post. It confuses me why this isn't at 10+ karma

+5 is fine!

Y'know, one of the actual problems with LW is that I read it in my Internet as Television time, but there's a REALLY PROMINENT SCORE COUNTER at the top left. This does not help in not treating it as a winnable video game.

(That said, could the people mass-downvoting waitingforgodel please stop? It's tiresome. Please try to go by comment, not poster.)

So true!

(Except it's at the top right. At least, the one I'm thinking of.)

The other left.

(Yes, I actually just confused left and right. STOP POSTING.)
