What kind of response were you expecting to get from this thread?
I thought people would be amused. I can't help but be concise. When people are talking to me, I often keep on replying monosyllabically even when I want to say more. I find conversations tiring but they do serve their purpose.

If you would like an exemplary sample of verbosity, assuredly, you ought to peruse the annals of Romanticism and Victorian era literature, for example, illustrious authors such as Charles Dickens and William Blake. Or, if fantasy strikes your fancy, you should analyze the belletristic wanderings of the extravagant George MacDonald.
Quite strangely, that was rather concise...hmmm....
You talk about books in a fascinating fashion.

By concise I believe you are saying that sometimes a person on WP posts a "lengthy post" and you prefer a short and to the point posting. Am I correct in this assumption? I can see your point in that when I read through a thread if one post is a really lengthy post and I do not have a lot of time then I may skip reading the lengthy post.
Indeed you are correct in your assumption but I won't labour the point, as I didn't notice how strongly some people feel about their way of writing.
