Reading threads backwards?

Post Reply New Topic

I want to know if this is just a "me thing" or if it's a possible "Aspie thing."

For a lot of forum threads, especially those with multiple pages, I like to start at the end and read backwards. Often I'll end up even reading long posts from bottom to top, one paragraph at a time. Somehow it all seems to flow just fine.

Anyone else?

lol yh im always doing that

i do it with books aswell and ive ocassionally done it with dvds wen i got really bored

I read many threads that way. I figure the latest discussion is at the end so I read that, but then I need to know where the discussion started from so I have to read backwards to the beginning.
I read a lot of new webcomics that way too.

I read the first page first so I know what it's about, then I jump to the last 2-4 pages and read from there.

Upon reading a thread backwards I found it fun, I might do it more

I do that occasionally.

I read posts backwards too. Sometimes I will read the last page of a thread and keep reading the posts and go to the next page when I know I should be reading the first pages first.


Sometimes I read a post from the bottom to the top. Sometimes I read parts of it and most of the time I skim when there is too long of a post.

You're all crazy, the lot of you.

I do it a lot. Especially when there are more than 3 pages.
