Let's try to avoid being snarky, ok? It has nothing to do with being lazy, and since you don't know me, you probably shouldn't make assumptions.

I cut-tag my longer entries so that people have a choice as to whether or not they want to read them. We all have people on our friends lists that we're closer to than others - some folks we want to read everything they post, and some we only wnat to read certain subjects, updates on their actual life, or such. I don't assume that everyone wants to read every post I make. Some of my friends read from work, or have a huge friend list, so have asked for cut-tags. I respect them, so I do it.

Cutting long posts is about being polite to others, respecting them, giving them the choice instead of making it for them.

There is nothing wrong with asking other people to cut really long posts, as long as it's done politely, and I didn't see anyone who'd requested a cut do it rudely.

It's great that you scrolled past it and came back, but it doesn't matter whether or not it was easy, we're talking about whether you should have to.

I do think it's a great article, and I'm glad that Donna posted it. I don't have a problem with the message.
