Is it just me (please, tell me no) that cuts to the chase?
I see an article on a topic where I know immediately -- the author telegraphs it -- that I'll disagree with the main point. I think I ought to read this anyway, be well-informed, hey, they might be right. I read a couple of paragraphs, feel the eyes-glaze-over sensation, and cut to the last paragraph. Yadda yadda yadda so what's your point? The middle could have sex, drugs, and rock-and-roll, not to mention the authoritative and accurate word on what happened to Jimmy Hoffa, Judge Crater, and Amelia Earhart, as well as who really shot at Kennedy, and I wouldn't know. I just cut to the summary.
Is it just me?
