Poll: What are the most annoying posts?

[AHarvey]

no "smash a pasty" entry?

definitely the most annoying for me, and always gives a very pathetic view of the poster.

 

[Mat]

'Spec me a way to wipe my arse' type threads.

Ha! I was pretty close

This is the 'worst I hate people trying to be funny and failing in my eyes' OP ever.



see what I did their?

I managed to squeeze 2 in the post, not bad!

The most annoying one's are anything thats overused. Most on that list were funny the first time, but not the 1000000000000 time

Though this could be added to the argumentative posts that come afterwards where people cannot accept that people do things because they want to, not because some forum bods think otherwise

And this is the frustrating part. Surely it isn't a giant leap to realise that perhaps, you know, perhaps, the question is 'why did X decide they want to'. 'Because they decided they want to' is what prompts the question it isnt what should answer it

I find "adjective noun is adjective" style posts mildly annoying. E.g. naff poll is naff.

RSS style posts by far. Every day there's this horrifically slow echo of old news stories trickling down the first page of GD. Very annoying.

Also old memes, old memes used incorrectly. It just takes so long for a meme to reach GD that they're all annoying by virtue of them being half dead by the time they get here. That's pretty much universal and imo applies to everything in the poll (aside from 'worst x ever').. And to make it worse it feels like they're being re-hashed by people that are very much out of touch, or maybe that's just because of the age of the meme by that point.

But, everything has it's place. If I want fresh internets I'll go find a *chan. When my brain's done being fried, I can come back to GD and have a read!.

I have to add a +1 to the RSS feed posts.. People feel the need to post it, they must have an opinion on the matter

 

[yashiro]

Did you mean just in GD?

For me any post that contains 'Spec me' or 'Worth it' makes me want to head-butt the author.

Irony?

No, it's called hypocrisy...

[Morba]

Oh, if any forum on here then one from SA:

"I don't train legs as I ride a lot".

Get out!

 

[Strife212]

Also RSS posts about newsworthy events, where the poster simply reposts info and photos from another source. Made even more annoying when the poster gives off an air of authority about the topic by deliberately not citing sources.

These posts are often found one after each other as if the poster is talking to himself

I think I know exactly who you are talking about

Kwerks or anyone else who posts a big load of crap just to make themselves appear slightly more interesting than they actually are or the 4chan / icanhazcheeseburger crew who things retarded spelling is the way to go e.g hai instead of hey.

Was that too serious an answer?

Worst thread ever

[gillywibble]

The only one that's crap is 'cool story bro', probably because the picture is as well.

 

[Vonhelmet]

I dont get why everyone gets their knickers in a twist over the RSS style threads, most of them often link to something interesting i probably wouldnt have seen had it not been for the OP.

So sign up to Twitter.
