Have people ever accused you of not being a good listener?
Do they say you tend to cut them off before they finish speaking or seem to stop listening shortly after they begin?
Do you tend to feel slightly bad about this but don't know what to do about it?
Well, here is the solution to your problem. The solution is that you don't have a problem, they do!
After all, they are the ones complaining, aren't they?
The key here is to move beyond the calcified perceptions and perspectives of this pack of whiners.
You can help them to rise above all this pettiness when you realize that these poor misguided wretches need your help.
You can help them by explaining to them that what they perceive as a lack of interest or poor listening skills on your part is actually just the opposite. You were so interested in what they were saying that you were listening faster than they were speaking!
You heard what they had to say even before they finished saying it!!!!

It might have seemed like I don't bother reading your blog...
... but in reality I am reading it so fast that I'm pre-reading.
Unfortunately for commenting, I have to be so excited about the post that when your writing of it catches up to real time I still care enough to want to.
And frankly? What seemed witty and clever three weeks ago just ain't anymore.
I'm excited about the stuff you are going to post three weeks from now.
Wow!

Well yes, and I of course pre-read this comment and have since changed my mind about what I'm going to post in three weeks in order to pre-disappoint you. How's that for ya?
That's why I said "Wow!"
It excited me to see the changes you were making to pre-disappoint me.
Heh heh.
