It would be nice to collapse or skip all replies to a parent, do any of these extensions do that? I often find some discussion that is uninteresting to me (but might be others for others) and just want to easily get past it. If it is long, it takes some time to find where the indention matches-up many PGDNs below.

If you want to add collapsible comment threads without changing anything else about the site, "Hacker News Collapse" is the extension for that --

The top comment by moskie points out one such chrome extension. Just installed it and works great for collapsing threads.
