"I was mocking the four threads... winking face"

Then you can understand why I jumped at what looked like a request for yet another thread.

Only after I posted my reply, did I notice your 2nd sentence & winking emoticon.

Yep. I do an eye-roll after the first three threads on breaking news.

I get it - 20 years ago, it was pretty exciting to get the first scoop on FR - but now I figure someone else will get the big scoop, unless it's obscure.

I stick to little scoops, like Brett Kavanaugh's wife having been Dubya's personal secretary while he was governor and President, and hence probably like family.
