You're searching the web for a question that requires a
direct answer, such as a number.
Click your Doctorremulac3 "GET TO THE POINT!" browser
plugin and all the wanna be Hemingways and Shakespeares
endless prattling on about the stuff you don't want to hear
about is
replaced by the word
BLA.
So if you're looking for an answer that says: "19.5 inches of
mercury at 8,000 feet" rather than filtering through a small
novel to get to the number, you see:
BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA
BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA
BLA >>> 19.5 inches of mercury at 8,000 feet <<< BLA BLA
BLA
BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA
BLA BLA BLA BLA
The author would get to click this button and see the
preferred way readers of his article have requested to view
his post as well. Then maybe next time they could get to
the
damned point. "They didn't want to hear about my great
aunt's bursitis when talking about manifold pressure? But I
was being so cute and interesting.
Another way would be just to be able to click a box that
says
"Include only numbers and their sentences in answer."

What's the point of posting an idea with the title //BLA BLA BLA// and the subtitle //bla bla bla/ and the entire text just six paragraphs of //bla bla bla//? Is this some kind of postmodern joke? Or is there some kind of adblock-style filter at work replacing actual text with bla? |

Isn't "Blah" like boring and dull where "bla" is,.. yea,
you're probably right but I'm not going to go back and
add 100 hs. Great, now how do you spell a multiple H
situation? |

Has she tried physiotherapy? |

The point of replacing the words with markers, in this
case the word "BLA", but it could be anything, a dot
for instance, is so you can zero in on the info you
were looking for. You would also be able to highlight
the marker words and change them to the word that
was originally printed there. |

And yes, having the word be "BLA" is a bit facetious
but I have no idea what a "post modern" joke is. |

//spelling it without the ‘h’ is incorrect// |
|
| |
His spelling is the result of the many times [doctorremulac3]
been told to "Get the 'h' out of here." |
|
| |
Yes. That's absolutely true. |
|

I might add that I've been banned from classier
websites than this. ;) |
