OK, fess up.
You ever wait to hear from someone online, and sit there and hit the refresh button like some sort of fucking idiot?

Like, every second or so?

Like a fucking message is somehow going to magically appear in a second?

One thing about these here internets...makes you feel like someone will get in touch with you soon.

It's like looking at the phone and willing it to ring.

Ah what the fuck...I had a real productive day, so I guess I can sit here and hit refresh.

6. Right click on the page and it's one of the options in there.
I'm at work so I don't have Firefox to check exactly what it is right now, but you can set time intervals and such.

I don't get replies because of it, so no chance of waiting for one. Look, this thread will die soon after I post. Just watch. x( :hi:
