I am a thorough enjoyer.

Meaning: I enjoy everything that I enjoy to the very last drop. I milk that drink until even a scotchman's whistle brooks no result. (And for the definition of a scotchman's whistle, you'll have to look up my grandpa. (Or I could tell you it's the annoying sound produced when someone sucks on their straw and there is very little beverage left. (SSLUUUURP! (Yay! Parenthesis!))))

I sit at a sports game until the end of the last inning (quarter (whatever)), I wait at concerts until the very last encore is over and the lights come up. Then, since I waited, I become one of the herd. (You know, the mass exodus of thosands of bodies that once occupied such a small area that the movement of all of them threatens to disrupt the rotation of the earth itself.)

I wait until the very end of a television program before switching channels, or turning the television off. For that I have to suffer through the last set of commercials to get the very last 30 seconds of television that is neither important, nor substantial. (But catastrophic to miss!)

That's just how I roll.

So, my dear reader(s), are you the stay-and-enjoy type of people or the cut-out-to-beat-the-crowd type?
