101. Seeing someone asking a question only to be responded to
with sarcasm and 'where have you been' comments. Obviously not everyone is glued to the computer 24/7 and is bound to miss some stuff. I've seen others responded to in GD and GD politics this way TOO MANY TIMES. So when it happened to me, I totally lost it and went off on people about it.

I don't like thinking that someone that has been lurking, not sure if they want to join up decides to post--only to be called an idiot for admitting they don't know something.

We (dems, DU'ers, etc.) give the right shit about being so uninformed. Then someone openly admits they are uninformed and would like help figuring out something and people jump all over them.

That's just bullshit, and a major peeve of mine.

I don't like seeing people treated disrespectfully.
