LMAO.

What I really want to know is how did you get the link to go straight to a specific post?

I disagree. “s\>|ueH| '+uno) +sod”, you say. “s\<|reQ| '+uno) +vod” would be closer to the truth.

Grr. I have no self-control. Was able to resist posting even after I found the word “vibraphone” just to keep my 999 status. Was able to hold off on some Great Debates thread.  
But the chance to correct a doctor on a minor medical matter that I knew a bit about in GQ was just too great a temptation.  
Welp, now into the thousands. Woo. 🙂

If you right-click, and -view source- you can see the post numbers. If you want to quote your own post, or to see the format, after you post it sends you to your post specifically.

Oh, right. That was another question I really wanted to answer, but was constrained by the nature of the thread.

Oh, and if you’re too lazy to view souce, do what I do.  
Move your mouse over the “quote” link on the post you are interested in.  
note the postid=number portion of the link.  
append to the thread URL as follows.  
#post\<thatnumber\>

another easy way: right-click on the link, select “copy shortcut”, then paste it wherever you want and modify to your heart’s content. 🙂
