Annoying things other posters do

[user1485342611]

Just wondering what things other posters do that really annoy you?

For me it's the deliberate misconstruing of an opening post and then flaming the OP for something they never actually said or implied.

Also the posters who conjure up wild scenarios to try and prove the OP is BU - "How do you know the woman who pushed you out of the way at the bus stop wasn't rushing home to her seriously ill child and has only 2p in her purse so couldn't afford a taxi. Try to be kinder and less self absorbed in future".

ThisIsTheFirstStep

Oh I always assume "the hobby" is messing about with some old car or running/playing football!

@elQuintoConyo u ok hun? Think you need to book an appointment with your GP about that

People who proffer advice/solutions/criticism without having read the OP's posts properly.

"Just asked DH and he says..."

Calm down, Carol, no-one cares.

I also really need to know what bitch-plopping is. It hasn't even made it onto Google!

'Is that all you have to worry about'?

'I don't know why you're so worked up about this that you had to start a thread about it"

'Meh. Non-issue'.

Gives-me--the-rage.

Oh, and posters who go 'rage? rage? really? Mildly annoying maybe but if it makes you rage maybe you should take anger management lessons.'

You sound lovely OP

Hampers - aaaagggggghhhhhhhhhhh

What about nice hamper? I would get them a hamper. I made them a nice hamper and they were so happy gave signed over their first born.

oh and people who post stuff like:

'AIBU today I gave £28282792 to a beggar, purchased a new car for my neighbour so she wont have to walk her kids to school, saved a child from drowning and cured cancer - did I overstep the mark?'

when you know they just want a billionty posts telling them how wonderful they are!

It does really annoy me when people spend fucking ages on a thread and give OP advice and then there is never an update. Happens so bloody often. And if you ask for an update there is always one sanctimonious arse who says something like "this isn't a soap opera, this is OP's LIFE". Like yes, obviously, but perhaps people are worried or interested or care about OP and the outcome.

Also when the OP gets sassy as hell because people think she is being unreasonable. Like the reusing bathwater poster.

*“Just asked DH and he says..."

Calm down, Carol, no-one cares.*

yes!! If the only contribution you have is from your DH, create him an account and take a back seat.

Seconding the people who tell you that the answer to having no money is to get a better job or more qualifications or take in ironing or something, with no real understanding of how it actually is to have absolutely zero money.

Apart from that I quite like the varied advice and life experiences on here. And sometimes even people who haven't RTFT can offer a new take on things!

"I had sex 3 days ago, could I be pregnant?"

"Here's my scan, any guesses what sex it is?"

Really long titles with ... at the end, tell me before I waste a click ;

It’s snowing - where??

My dh says - no one cares

And the long bold quote - keep it streamlined, it’s a conversation so it’s like you’re shouting my own words back at me mid chat

“Are you always this anxious/entitled/uptight/insert word of choice here”

Coming on to moan that a thread is boring/already discussed before/still going on

Commenting a thread to moan about the OP when it’s clear from the title what it’s going to be about, just don’t go on the thread in the first place! It’s the strangest thing.

And I absolutely can’t stand - “you/they/he/she sound unhinged”

*AIBU today I gave £28282792 to a beggar, purchased a new car for my neighbour so she wont have to walk her kids to school, saved a child from drowning and cured cancer - did I overstep the mark?'

when you know they just want a billionty posts telling them how wonderful they are!*

Yes! This winds me up. Yes, you're great. Have a sticker.

Porn threads all go the same way

"All men watch porn"

"My husband doesnt watch porn"

"Bet he does just tells you what you want to hear like ops partner did"

"Sex work is never consensual"

"Ethical porn"

"No such thing as ethical porn"

"I watch porn"

"Your just trying to be cool"

Meanwhile ops thread is completely derailed

People who say, "Here, have my very first"

Why is that more special than all the subsequent biscuits?

You're offering them a snack emoji, not your firstborn child.

Oh, and 'We are so skint, we only earn 7 million pounds a year each, and we've only had 18 holidays this month, how can we save money?'

Drives me mental.

The thankfully few but very sanctimonious ones that show no humility and assume everybody else MUST be a total moron.

Over use of the word BITCH and BITCHY.....because I love dogs!

The ones whose default response to any complication in life is
"Just tell them to Fuck off!" 😂😂😂 actually, its uncerebral but sort of funny!

OP - 'I'm, getting married next week [excited emoticon] and starting to worry about how long it will take to change all my documents to my married name. Does anyone know how long it takes?

MN: What is this the 1950s?
Why are you changing your name?
Is he changing his name?
I can't believe people still do this

Yes love, people all over the world still do this. As of 2018 In the real world, MOST people still change their names to their husbands upon marriage. Not changing your name is still a fairly new way of thinking that is catching on. Only on MN is every married woman bearing their dad's name (pardon the irony).

Shovelling any old tripe into AIBU.

Someone says their dog has done something wrong and is told it's all your fault because you are a bad person.

Someone says they hate Megan Markle's shoes and is told they are a racist.
