This is gonna be the thread where we talk about stuff

I write slow and lots. You can typically assume whatever I'm typing is continuation of a thought from five minutes ago, and that I'll pause for sometimes a half-minute in the middle. I'm not waiting on you! I'm waiting on me.

One of the advantages of the textual medium is that data is not lost as the conversation progresses, so I typically don't worry as much about carrying a tangent through. I understand that conventions of normal conversation are hard to shake, but when it comes to text chat relay I won't mind if you talk over me. Because, strictly speaking, you're not.
