AIBU: The threads that annoy you most

[user1471517900]

Like those where the OP writes hardly anything and expects others to entertain them.

Now you go.

Bit - isn't it obvious? You need to LTB, go NC with your MIL, and book yourself into a spa for the day. Although quite why you would have carrots on Christmas day I have no idea - I feel sad for you if that counts as a Christmas vegetable in your family.

Sabineundine, I've noticed the same thing. I usually skip the first few pages to get to the more helpful replies. Also, avoid the last pages, they're always 2 or 3 people arguing with themselves.

Zombie threads just randomly cropping up annoy me.

I don't get the "am I pregnant?" ones either.

Is anyone really that interested in whether a stranger is pregnant or not?

Anyone who refers to 'mummies' 'fellow mummies' 'kiddies' or 'hubby'.

Just please stop it.

The Phantom Wheeze Bark

Ooh yes, fellow mummies.

Don't include me in your 'mummy' shit.

There's only one person in the world who gets to call me "mummy" and, frankly, at nearly 11, I kind of wish she'd stop.

Today I saw an old lady fall over in the street. I rushed over, called an ambulance and held her hand until it arrived. Then I accompanied her to hospital. Did I do the right thing?

I long ask if the OP gave her her coat too Worra. Serious question. When watching action films I see a dramatic scene and wonder whether in order to save someone's, life I'd jump into murky water in my nice coat or hug someone dying and get blood or vomit on my nice coat.

Then I wonder whether it would be okay to take off my nice coat before helping them. In the first instance it would be acceptable because I'd argue that I didn't want to be weighed down, but in the second, I think people would judge me.

By that time I've lost the plot of the film and have to ask people what's happening.

SirChenjin no need to be so smug about your Christmas veggies. If you have nothing helpful to say please leave the thread.

Although, I am gutted about the spa advice. I forgot that one. A spa day will remove my carrot issues.

This thread is therapy.

Actually, while I'm here, the worrying thread from last night about the woman stuck in Wales in the bloke's house. I can't find it now. IS it still around?

It's still there somewhere Communion.

Any thread where a landlord asks for a small piece of advice.

Q: My tenant has asked to change the carpets/ pay rent two days late, what would other LLs do?

A: If you haven't undertaken a degree in LLording and then followed it up with a Masters in Property Law then why the fuck are you in this?

A: Owning a property to let is a national disgrace and it's entirely your fault that young people can't get on the housing ladder ( regardless of the OPs situation).

A: < my favourite after a very simple request for advice> You sound a bastard and I'd take you to court.

And only after 5 pages of abuse you might get a few helpful replies.

communion the op was on a train on her way home when I saw that thread a wee while ago.

The one's who declare a name change. Just post under another name without all the drama if you really don't want to be recognised.

The ones where people who reply and have a different opinion from the majority are flamed for it..
Just because my opinion is different to yours, it's still my opinion.

thanks Sparkling

I have a love/hate relationship with baby names the do you like Masie no its very common what about Augusta

I sometimes see a baby names thread in Trending and click just out of curiosity. I usually have this face because it's either a completely normal name or something so strange it's almost cruel.

Where people ask users to use Google for them. The lazy shits

People watch One Born Every Minute... people are strange.

thanks Bailey. I'll stop searching, happy she's safe.

I don't tend to look at usernames, but you do get to recognise a poster's style.

I have hidden the pregnancy board as I am also a hater of the 'am I pregnant/is this a line' type threads. Why would you discuss (also a hate!) this with strangers on t'internet and not the other person involved in the pregnancy!

I can see why people would advertise a name change because of those people doing advance searches on usernames rather than be accused of trolling 'nice post for your first one'.

Merailed threads, especially where they don't read or actually respond to the OP's original questions but just want to get their own details and opinions in there ('but what about meeeeeee').

And the last one (who said about long posts ...) is people who don't understand a debate. I see a thread as an exchange of opinions, I don't think that someone is going to read a post and change the mindset of a lifetime.

Years ago on Digital Spy if people posted "What's wrong with me?" Threads someone could usually be relied upon to post "it could be cancer", I.e. "Why ask us? Go to the doc". I have been tempted here, but I know it won't end well.

This. I don't understand it at all!

AIBU threads where all posters say YABU then the OP completely loses their shit and keeps insisting they aren't. Why ask if you are so sure YANBU?

Also when posters start moaning that pp haven't read the whole thread when its 22 pages long ffs.

The ones I hate the most are where the advice and responses to a complicated relationship issue are TOTALLY different depending on whether the OP is a man or a woman.

The tone and the language used, the blatant double standards and the open hostility to male posters makes me sick. I really don't understand why they come here expecting unbiased relationship advice, I honestly don't.

"Name change for this. Penis beaker, naice ham, elderly Korean lady"

OK then
