Stupid yet slightly aggressive standard MN responses

[Coatzillaclaus]

Why can’t posters think of something slightly more intelligent to say when they see a post they don’t agree with?!

I see these kind of posts a lot:-

Did you get your own way a lot, when you were a child?

This is hilarious...

Etc etc

I guess it’s just place-marking too.

This is hilarious .

for you OP.

don't disagree necessarily but on the other hand, if people don't agree why should they put an essay? In fairness, this board in particular is kinda set up so it's just a yabu or yanbu answer. It's variations on that

Here’s another

Oh please 🙄 Please this is why kids are so badly behaved nowadays..........with this as an example GUESS what sometimes in life things don't go your way.
Please give it a rest

Is English your first language?

I said it on another post recently but the use of to indicate incredulity on something completely normal, like:

OP: I cooked a steak for my DH last night
Reply: Why were you cooking a steak for your DH?

Is English your first language

‘You sound very young op’

Also, when an OP posts something like they are bleeding profusely, their leg is half hanging off and they are in severe agony and someone pushes in front of them in the queue for A&E because they have a cold and ask AIBU to think that they should be seen to before the person with a cold:

"Are you always this entitled"?

I’m a bit irritated by “turkeys voting for Christmas”. It just patronises those in lower socioeconomic groups (for context, I’m a middle class remainer, so no axe to grind).

HTH - typed after a pointlessly rebarbative comment where helping was the last thing on the writer’s mind.

you sound very young = you sound very thick

I guess people just run out of nice. Maybe they put up with a lot of idiots in real life, so like to off load on perceived idiots online.

'No is a complete sentence'

It really isn't. It's rude and obnoxious.

"You don't like her very much do you?" Usually to someone whose MIL's hobby is knitting dolls that look like the OP and sticking pins in them or something.

On a recent thread a SAHM who lives rurally posted just to vent about finding it hard to occupy her toddler during the cold winter months.

There followed the standard MN responses where advice the OP did NOT request and bore no relation to her problem was dispensed: “just get a job; “just learn to drive”; “you’re a fool for being an unmarried SAHM. Your DP will leave you”

You sound awful.

It all sounds very dramatic.

First baby?

"Have you had help for your anxiety?"

Why are you married to a man child.

LTB.

Fairly standard for any responses where the male of the species isn't perfect all the time.

“And you had children with this man why?”

Fuck off.

‘Are you always this controlling?’

‘You sound hard work.’

And my personal fave:

‘Meh, I couldn’t get worked up about it’. All aimed at making OP feel like an arse. Who even says meh?

Oh @Pinkarsedfly I HATE that one it's so superior like the poster remained pure until finding the perfect Stepford DH, who has never been mildly annoying or an arsehole

And in the more severe cases, the abuse didn't start til after DC

"No" actually is considered a complete sentence. And it's not rude to tell someone no.

"Did you mean to be so rude?" is not the cutting retort some MNers think it is.

I just hate the fact that anyone and everyone get constantly 'diagnosed' with ASD or mental health problems.

“She’s not your friend. Dump and block”.
“You sound angry OP”
“There are already several threads on this”
