to compile a list of pointless/annoying AIBU responses for MNHQ to outlaw?

[ICBINEG]

Other than troll hunting and personal abuse etc.

eg: "don't you have anything better to worry about?"

Yes of course I fucking do. Just because I posted something doesn't mean it is the only cunting thing I care about!

Okay I have another one! I hate it when people start a thread complaining about something, people tell them they are being a bit unreasonable so they come back and update with a brief "ah well, its not important anyway, I don't care anyway" type of comment. It was bloody important enough to you and you cared enough to write an essay about it but now no one agrees with you, its not important? Its so passive aggressive.

'I don't mean to be rude but..............'

oh exotic I love the 'I don't mean to be rude....' it's usually followed up with something that deserves its own AIBU

'I'll just get my mumsnet bingo card'

"I would hate to have you as my daughter-in-law" or "I hope my son never marries someone like you" and other variations on that theme.

We need a brigade of cliche police.

Have you considered that the child who hit your son over the head with a brick might have an invisible disability?

Can we also outlaw OPs who ask AIBU but then refuse to accept that they are, why ask for opinions if you're not willing to accept them or a least take them into consideration (apart from the ridiculous ones like those mentioned in this thread)

"Grow a pair"
"Strap on a pair"

And variations thereof. What an utterly unhelpful, pointless and woman-hating phrase.

Mine are -

""

"This won't go well"

"Have you got a flameproof suit OP?"

""

"This makes my teeth itch"

'Stabby'?

God, yes, all of those Shaky.

Hackneyed beyond belief. At least find an original way to say it, if you feel compelled to say it at all.

I'm racking my brains trying to recall if I've ever used any of these phrases...probably have. But then I know I can be "unreasonable" and a bit of a fanjo at times....

I think instead of 'gets popcorn' I might start saying 'changes fucking channel'.

'What an odd and ridiculous post'

"You might be happier on another site"

"This might not be the site for you"

I like "stabby", though. It's just an adjective.

"Goady Fucker" OTOH is a cliche.

Goady fucker hasn't been about long enough yet. Give it a few more months.

"Reported."

It hasn't been around long, but it's everywhere . Really, really tedious.

Yy to "Reported." Ridiculous.

"Where's the AIBU?"

"I don't give a shiny shite about --"

"sanctimonious"

That is all
