Fullerene Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 4 hours ago, Shandon Par said: Afghan/COVID type threads where folks have clearly been googling the f**k out of a subject then trying to pass it off as stuff they knew. "Fullerene, what are you doing here in Afghanistan? Not sure if you have been watching the news. Not exactly safe just now." "Yes I know but I was wanting to post something on P & B about the number of hospital beds in the country and I have been told that I can't just Google it". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eez-eh Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 4 hours ago, Hedgecutter said: Replying to the slightest of disagreements with "seething", "verge of tears" or "you seem upset". Also, repeated use of Ainsley gifs is a sure-fire way of ending up on the ignore list. Agreed, although I think it used to be a lot worse. I mind there was a time, some years ago now, where every single match thread was full of this sort of patter. Fans of a losing team weren’t allowed to have any grievances or groans about any aspect of the game. Anyone who deviated from “we were shite and the opposing team were amazing” got told they were on the verge of tears. I think the match threads at least are generally much more readable than they used to be. ^^^ seething 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgecutter Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 12 hours ago, craigkillie said: This is based on an assumption that P&B is entirely representative of the population average when it comes to intelligence. However, given that posting on football forums is mainly the preserve of geeks and weirdos, it's not inconceivable that P&B is on average more intelligent than the general population. Except for the old Juniors forums, of course, where the opposite is true. It specifically related to comparison against other users of P&B, not the general population. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullerene Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 I recall a radio station in Canada that had a phone in quiz. They would give clues to a city and if you could guess where it was then first prize was a one week holiday for two to that city. Aberdeen was the correct answer. Second prize was two weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky Nosejob Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Irrelevant posts on the ITYPD thread. It’s there as a safe haven to vent your frustrations with your partner’s behaviour rather than risk actually having to address it face to face with them. There are more suitable threads for week-long arguments about acceptable pizza toppings or preferred barbecues. Endless posts about lane discipline and signalling etiquette when navigating roundabouts on the COTR thread. Pedantic posts on TTJ&TET highlighting what are, at most, typos. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An ironic "but we just don't know" on the Coronavirus thread is the poster boy of the genre.

What? This thread is about crappy post types. I nominated those where exactly the same stock phrases get trotted out by a variety of posters. I even provided an example for Christ's sake. I've no idea why this seems to be conceptually beyond a couple of you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
