That always troubles me. The invisible audience. I always wonder who they are.

I'm a viewer. I just had nothing clever to add so I was being all lurky. I am the lurkinator. 

This. You bitches* are all way funnier than I am, I just bask in the snarkiness and chime in on rare occasions.

*Bitches is totally meant in the most loving way possible. No TOS violation here!

I don't like that invisible audience thing... they're out there... watching us....

Honestly, I just closed the curtains.

I was a lurker too.

Too bad the OP was a troll because I actually have experience with this. My sister's (a BM) due date is like a month before my wedding. And I'm not worried. I just have babysitters as a wedding expense. And am planning to ask some cousins if they want to hang out day of and watch babies.

I'm lurking in here because I have nothing valuable to add right now.

Except this adorable kitten..

It's all about context

Everytime you view the page, either to lurk or respond, it counts as 1 view. So today, I have been on this post say 4 times, so it counts as 4 views. If every 55 posters visited this page at least 5 times, that's already 275 views. Now for the rest, I don't know shit.

One view: I usually leave my love it somewhere when I have nothing to add, like now, like usual.

I lurk. A lot. Normally I'm not witty enough to respond or I just like watching shitshows (hello recent thread on the E-board). Work can be sloooooooooow some days. I also wonder about the rest of the lurkers out there...

I frequently read, but don't comment. Often, I agree with the 9 million PPs and don't feel I have anything to add to the discussion.

Doesn't mean I don't enjoy some great drama, though.

lmcooper86

I lurk on this board a fair bit, but I'm usually late to the party and other (prompter) posters have said anything I would have said.

charlieyankee03

I mostly lurk, because gifs and snark are hard.

I've also been wondering if OP could be responsible for THIS train wreck...

Be more visible, @chrisandcait!  (Mostly because I always get giddy when I see your signature.)

Ooooh there was a shitshow on E.

Peace out, y'all. (I'm a lurker up to this point on this thread. I usually try to participate in threads rather than just pop in and out, but most of the time I just either don't have any useful input, all the cleverer posters beat me, or can't find the energy to make my fingers move.)

Not because of my charm and wit? I mean, no one can see my incredibly good looks, so I get that being ignored, but still.

I guess Knotties always know exactly where I am cuz I don't know how to keep my thoughts to myself :P

Well that too, obviously :P

I'm lurking mostly because I've been sick and don't have anything witty or sarcastic to say.

glitter2015

I admit I am totally a lurker...just don't have much to add but love to read everyone's comments.  Thanks for all the chuckles!

KatieinBkln

I love it when lurkers come out of the woodwork. 

A genuine thanks, troll!

I lurked this thread. My BM had a baby 3 weeks before my wedding so I do have advice to post for a legit question. No sense wasting time to give advice to a troll.

KeptInStitches

I lurked this thread, mostly because I didn't have time to look up adorable kitten gifs.

That didn't occur to me. When you post a YouTube video, can you tell where it's been linked/reposted? I've never made one, so don't know this. If I thought she might track it, I might have said something more diplomatic than "kill me."

I would guess it's a more frequent lurker. Because she knew exactly one of the topics that would be guaranteed to annoy everyone.

Either way, poor trolling, disappointing follow up. On a troll grading system, I have to give her an F.

This is getting deep, guys

I saw all of the new comments and thought troll came back...D'OH!

The more views the better the thread.

I usually lurk because the PP's usually say what I am thinking and no one wants to read the same advice/comment more than once.

Do you have any advice? I'm not really worried because it's my sister's second child so she's knows the drill. But I would love to do anything I can to help her/make things convenient for her.
