Go Back With Backspace offered by google.com

I use Chrome all damn day. I can't understand, I can't imagine the logic behind taking away the navigation function of the backspace key which, if memory serves, and it may not, this may just be a particularly potent hallucination, which, as I was saying, when pressed, navigated the fuck back one fucking page.

Why is this so hard?

Why is the new way so gooder?

Yes, questions with no answers.

Fuck that. Click the link at the top for your answer.

You're welcome.

As a long-time fan of not having the web page I'm typing a huge reply into suddenly, inexplicably ƒucking dissapear, as I'm launched into the retro experience of viewing the goddamn login screen I was at 15 minutes ago--instead of the motherƒucking post I've been typing for 15 minutes--I'd like to suggest that the backspace key is supposed to back up A SPACE not a ƒucking PAGE, and, respectfully submit that THAT'S WHY THEY'RE CALLED THE GODDAMN BACKSPACE KEY NOT THE MOTHERFUCKING "BACKPAGE" KEY.

But of course, I understand that some people may prefer to NOT be able to type things on the internet without getting logged out of the site they're posting to.

To those people: get this neat plug-in!

I had that happen too many times, so now if it's a long reply, I type in in a WORD or NOTEPAD document, then cut and paste when I'm sure I'm approved.

Me too, as a rule, but the memory that it has ever happened--necessitating me taking this extra step-- is an injustice that I've never forgotten.
