I used to play pool a fair amount and it reminds me of a quote an older player shared with me one time: "Every shot is a practice shot". His point was that every time you shot you …

Until it didn't.

Agreed. A regular frustration for me is clicking on a tweet that is a replay to a tween, and then I still have to scroll back to see the original tweet. I'm old and mostly use desk…
