>Do you know I moderated an imageboard once?
Sorry?
>A board.
No, I didn't know that.
>I was a janitor by trade. Mmhmm.
>It went from Page 1 of /3/ to Page 10 of /xs/. It spanned nine hundred and twelve pages across the catalog. 12,100 people used this thing a day.
>And it wasted thirty-five minutes of time each day between people taking a shit and crossposting to reddit.
>That's a combined 847,000 minutes of posting. A day. Or 25,410,000 minutes a month. And 304,920,000 minutes a year. Wasted.
>Now I moderated that board starting in 2006, that's seventeen years ago. So over the life of that one board, that's 5,183,640,000 minutes that were completely useless. At, what, let's say fifty IQ points a poster? So that's, what, that's uh... 4,319,700,000 IQ-hours, or 179,987,500 days. So that one little site has cost the people of those boards a combined 3,287 years of Einstein level thinking, wasted checking dubs.

Do you know I built a bridge once?
I was an engineer by trade.
It went from Dilles Bottom, Ohio to Moundsville, West Virginia. It spanned nine hundred and twelve feet above the Ohio River. Twelve thousand people used this thing a day. And it cut out thirty-five miles of driving each way between Wheeling and New Martinsville. That's a combined 847,000 miles of driving a day. Or 25,410,000 miles a month. And 304,920,000 miles a year. Saved. Now I completed that project in 1986, that's twenty-two years ago. So over the life of that one bridge, that's 6,708,240,000 miles that haven't had to be driven. At, what, let's say fifty miles an hour. So that's, what, 134,165,800 hours, or 559,020 days. So that one little bridge has saved the people of those communities a combined 1,531 years of their lives not wasted in a fucking car. One thousand five hundred and thirty-one years.
