Are you desperate to be seen as smart on the interwebs?
Maybe I'm just a misanthrope, but this is what I imagine the motivation is for posters who post inordinately, long walls of text on, often, minor issues. I'm talking about the posts where they throw in "clever phrases" or what the poster seems to think of as a witty manner of speaking. (That feels like it has been ripped directly off the script of some random American TV drama)
