1. The grammar police

It is as though they only do it to make themselves feel superior for half a minute.

Nyah :P

2. Correction:

It is as though they only do it to make themselves feel superior for half a minute.

[liberalhistorian]

3. And that is exactly

why they do it! Trust me, as the daughter of not one, but TWO English teachers, I know whereof I speak.

4. Perhaps you mean to say....

"It is as though...."

Hey, I do feel superior. But it will only last another few seconds, so someone please make another error!

[SemiCharmedQuark]

7. You are too late.

So I say :P to you! :P!

[pagerbear]

9. Oh yeah?!!!!!

Well, I say x( to you!!!!!

[neohippie]

5. low post count blues

The accusations, damn it feels bad to be a newbie

[pagerbear]

6. [insert instruction here] NOW!!!!!!

Usually tune in to see a TV show that was over hours before I read the actual post.

[baldguy]

8. "... Ask me anything!"

[UdoKier]

10. Submissions full.

You'll have to settle for "other" now.

[Paul Hood]

11. Other, n/t or eom in the message instead of the subject. n/t

[liberalmuse]

12. 'Other'.

1. Seeing an enthusiastic poster start a thread, only to have it pissed on by some elitist, arrogant a-hole for some trite reason that usually has nothing to do with the topic. It's so rude.

2. People who jump on posters because they dare suggest something that isn't in line with the meme currently bouncing off the walls in the echo chamber.

Other than those two things, I think DU is a great place! :)

[liberalhistorian]

13. Oh, damnit, the one

about newbies with low post counts saying "you DUers should", appeared after I'd already voted. I HATE THAT! They usually have no fucking clue what they're talking about, either.

[Mizmoon]

14. I voted for "polls containing"

Seemed nice and cryptic, just the way I like it.

[UdoKier]

15. That was an error - it's been fixed.

For some reason, when I edit polls with quotes, everything after the quote disappears.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

16. Copycat threads

I've never seen one that was funny, but plenty that just plain cluttered up the board.

[Kat45]

18. I second that one.

[donheld]

21. I third that

They annoy the hell out of me. also the "ask me anything" threads annoy me.

[Awsi Dooger]

17. Conspiracy and fraud threads

Worthless. Almost zero substance. But they plague the internet in general, not just DU.

[HEyHEY]

19. .....

Starts with Z ends with f

[PartyPooper]

20. DU'ers who tell low posters to go back to freeperville...

instead of ignoring them...or hitting the alert button!

:D
