Just roll the scroll-wheel.
yeah.. about that..

A clear case of JJG right there.
Protip: Some of you guys just need to up your mousie game (also known as baby ratt).  
Protip for the ones scrolling a lot: Trackballs.

EDIT: And if you're also pointing and klicking tons of times, use them left handed for scrolling . or right handed if you're a left-hander.
You can also map your mouse scrollwheel to something else than scrolling windows.

hahahahaha

I find it a wee bit funny that you are quoting the "protip" portion of my post, especially for the last couple of years, I have never meant to use the term "protip" in a completely literal way.. ..

I consider the use of "protip" to be a bit of a purposeful exaggeration..

I think that I heard "Joe Rogan," say something like that in one of his podcasts, and thereafter, I had continued to consider the use of "protip" as a kind of fun comment, rather a serious or a literal one.

Yeah, my "Protip" itself was meant as fun, directed at your use of the "Protip" word, while the content following was serious.
Nowadays, it seems to me that "Protip: ..." became some sort of a memetic introduction tagline (or something like that, which i don't know a better term for), or as you described it: a purposeful exaggeration.

Sometimes i got to use these keyboards integrated into video cutting workstations when i was working in the broadcasting area (decades ago), which had built-in trackballs for quickly navigating through content. And man, these were quick as hell. The best thing about them is that they are weighted (and heavy) so they spin on their own for a while after accelerating them.
