I also don't like when people post about a problem or something serious and then never update. It's like you get emotionally connected and then just wait everyday to see what happened.

When people start posts:

"Do you think"
and then continues the question in the thread.

Just give us an idea of what the thread is about in the subject line so we don't have to open it! Chat Icon

We all know the "search" feature has its flaws, but when people don't use it at all, so the same question gets asked over and over and over again on a board, it's annoying.

Re: Do you have LIF or internet related pet peeves?

I have a couple:

1) People who start a thread by asking for opinions, then get all defensive when people give them opinions. It's as though they really asked because they were just looking for people to validate the way they felt and then make snide remarks to people who disagree with them and have a differing opinion.

2) Maybe this isn't just a LIF thing, but I am really bothered by hypocrital posters. The ones who seem to post replys that completely contradict something else that they have said in the past. I don't know, maybe I have too much time on my hands, but I always notice the posters who are very hypocritical.

I second this. I also can't stand when people quote a grossly long post.

or something can be easily searched on the web...what time does target open? does macy's take returns? The time it takes someone to post the question is probably how long it would take to google or go to the appropriate website to get the information they need.

This makes me RAGE. Chat Icon

In the time it took for you to type the question out -- you could have typed it in google or any other search engine and get the damn answer.

Re: Do you have LIF or internet related pet peeves?

I hate when people announce they are deleting FB friends.

So many people do it I just don't get it, if you want to "clean" your list do it. But the cries for attention are silly IMO

Anyone who complains about how they have no money to pay their bills but in another thread will post about a new pocketbook they bought or how they just went to the yankee game the night before.

I never answer those threads because it infuriates me, abnormally so.

The woe is me status updates on Facebook - just to get negative attention and have their friends boost their ego with "noooooo, you're wonderful, noooooo don't feel that way, you're awesome"

It bugs me when people ask a simple question and then gets a snarky and unrelated response.

This is just an example:
Question: Does someone know where a parking garage is near Lincoln Center?
(which could be googled Chat Icon)

Reply: You should take the train because you'll sit in traffic.

~~~~~~~~~~
Also when people ask a question and it doesn't seem they want an answer because they dispute every response.

When people ask for help with a gift but don't tell you how much they want to spend or anything about the person... I need help with a present for my next door neighbor... give me something to go on at least.

Also, when people put, "What do you think about" as the topic.
