    -v, --verbose
    This option increases the amount of information you are given
    when reading a post. By default, first posts are cryptic and
    force readers to click on random URLs. A single -v will
    give you information about what the heck the first poster
    really meant and a brief summary at the end. Two -v flags will give
    you information on what was skipped (intentionally or not) by the
    second poster and slightly more information at the end (than you
    probably wanted to know). More than two -v flags should only be
    used if you are debugging your browser or are a glutton for punishment.

    2) destroy it completely to show that not much is new inside
    3) take pictures and post them on the web
    4) get minor apple slashdotted
    5) withold geeky information from the descriptions and piss people off
