Question How do you read Calgarypuck threads?

Kind of a random thought.. But I'm curious, how do you guys read threads?

For example: I usually goto the Last Page and read backwards.. I'm not really sure why. Just always have read this forum that way.

Funny, that's exactly how I read this thread.

Usually first page or two, then the last two pages (initial impressions, then either more reasoned responses or total meltdown, depending on whether the thread discusses Bennett).

I read the first post, thank it if I agree, scroll down quickly being unable to read anything until something I don’t agree with catches my eye, throw in a jerk comment and then close the thread..

Usually go by first unread.

Sometimes, I like to filter.
Like the Trade Speculations/Rumors thread, I search by sureLoss.
Edmonton is No Good, search by CaptainCrunch (outstanding roasts).


Also, whenever I see ricardo post, I check back in that specific thread after about 20-30 min for the entertainment factor.

Click to the last page and work backwards.

Also, I have one subscribed thread, the classic Snotboy Story (which I totally forgot about until now).
