Most annoying DL expressions:

You know. The kind of smarmy thing an elder headmistress would throw in to show how smart they think they are. Used over and over.

I’ll start:

“But you knew that already, didn’t you?”

Not an expression, but more of a DL attitude: "You have the nerve to disagree with MEEEE, you must be (fill in demographic you personally can't stand)!"

Usually it's filled in by "old", but it sometimes is "a woman/frau", "black", "fat/obese"....

To manage to come across as a pervert, misogynist and 50 years behind the times is a bit of a trifecta. Cringe. I bet he spends a lot of time on the perfect wording of those bizarre sign offs too.

Except it's not equally tiresome. Which wasn't even the question R17.

R19. You must be a team mom poster. Grotesque sexless men who hate women and children post those things. Those with a lot of mommy issues. The words they spew are so obviously just a variation of what their 105 year old mother whispers in their ear. Move on, ancient white fags. Get some new material. The Patsy Ramsey poster is not funny or original and the team mom poster is even creepier and dumber. Sad old men. Practicing their very old song and dance. Tiresome probably is the appropriate word.

There's a button for it right at the top of the OP's post, R70. It's a circle with a red line through it. It's to ignore the thread. It is different than the circle with a person in it and a red line through it, next to responding posts (i.e. next to the WW and FF buttons). Maybe some of you have incompatible browsers? Everything works in Firefox.

R73 they still work. I just WW'd you as a test. After clicking WW, the WW and FF button sort of "grey out", to indicate that I already either WW'd or FF'd you, and therefore can't do it again to your post. This is how they have worked since I started coming to DL in 2015. How they worked before that....I have no idea.

by Anonymousreply 74August 14, 2020 6:08 AM

"Ignore threads" does not work in Firefox. It hasn't worked in over a year. Yes, the button is clickable, and it gets lighter when you click it, but the thread does not stay ignored. It doesn't work in Firefox, Edge, Chrome, or Safari on my phone. You can ignore posters, but that is more annoying than effective.

Thinking about it and reading the long list, I could go for tossing most of these out; if only because for half the context is almost completely arcane to everyone beside a few elder posters, and for the other half the humour wasn’t there in the first place.

For example: I know how to deploy a ‘move it along, Toots!’, but I couldn’t tell you how the stock response came about or what the original context was - presumably I wasn’t on DL the Palaeolithic year it came about, or I simply wasn’t in the relevant thread.

I do however have a soft spot for ‘WHET?, ‘Tasteful Friends...’, Vivian Vance, ‘Dead to Me!!’, Patsy Ramsey (and I’m a woman who doesn’t hate kids, go figure), and of course R29’s timeless choice. Some gags have such fantastic legs they just run and run, even (and especially) if they are on the dark side. DL wouldn’t be what it is without irreverent miserable character-memes, dramatic and colourful turns of phrase, and bizarre impenetrable catchphrases. That’s part of what has kept me around for almost a decade.

"Oh, dear" or the occasional "Oh dear". Not only overused but totally disregards that 1) DL is not a professional site so users tend not to proofread when posting something; 2) most of the errors are minimal at best; 3) many DLers might be posting using cellphones or other devices where accurate keyboarding is virtually impossible when typing quickly; and 4) mistakes happen to everyone.
