Ever read someone's long posting and think, "There's 3 goddamn minutes of my life I'll never get back..." ...?

Every time I accidentally click on some conservative screed or anti-science drivel.

Nope. If a post bores me that much, I stop reading it and move on.

Even when somebody tells me a really long boring story, I don't ever think in terms of minutes of my life gone -- I'm just grateful when they are finished.

If the post is written well and includes short paragraphs, it does not bother me. But, if it poorly written, rambling, and/or one big blob, I stop reading after the first couple of sentences.

Precisely.

No I may start it but don’t finish reading it. Then move on.

Ditto!
