I don't know, it's just nice to not have to scroll through it so that I can read other topics without hassle, even if it's just minor. You know, using a forum for its intended purposes and such.
Or maybe just staring at organized spreadsheets and tables at work all day is just starting to get to me too much, I don't know.
you actually complained about it, tho. those topics and all that one second of scrolling annoyed you so much that you came here and spent even more time copypasting an image, uploading it and posting it.
did you report the topics? as soon as i saw them i posted them to drule on irc and he got rid of them.
and even then it's not really about the time issue, it's more like how the hell does it affect you so badly that you need to moan about it.
sorry that your job sucks!!
