double posting

Here's the thing, kids. After you've hit 'sumbit' to post your writeup, don't hit 'sumbit' again if lag doesn't make it come up right away.

Don't press the shiny candy-like 'sumbit' button again even though it screams out for you to push it.

You will cause noise in the database and work for the editors, which will make them cranky.

*sigh* I just know I will regret this.

Now look below to see the horrible consequences.
