Am I missing something in the pit?

That Easy Tokyo character posted 15 minutes ago, at 9:45 A.M. the 17th, and now, at 10:09, has over 411 views?

That seems a bit impossible to me.

Why would that be impossible?  
Lots of people have more posts than that, even you.

Forget my question. I thought the time from the first post to the last was only 15 minutes. I somehow got it mixed up.

My only satisfaction with being that dense to begin with, was being out-done by AM/PM’s reply.
