If someone spends the time to FM you with advice or what have you, take the time to respond, even if it is just with a short "thanks for the info" type response

this is a HUGE pet peeve of mine



This is a really really GOOD ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When you are p issed at a specific person on the boards, start a very general thread about why people are so rude...



And make thinly veiled references to how you feel about them so that only one side of the story is known and you can get only the reactions you really want.

Ditto, when asking for computer related help. There are a small number of people here who can offer that help and they may get tired of offering it when it's thankless.

This is my favorite rule as it increases my entertainment for the day.

Okay, my boobs are itchy, I have to go pee on a stick.

Re: Unwritten "rules" of the boards...

Here's one of my greatest pet peeves - if you write a post asking for advice, i.e., is my kid eating enough, STOP asking the same damn question over and over when you've been provided with 100 responses with perfectly good advice and explanations Chat Icon

The classic pitfall

Do not start a thread asking who on LIF you'd want to meet.

GUARANTEED 10 whiny pages of people crying "no one wants to meet me"

followed by pages of "we love you and I would love to meet you"

Ok-ONE MORE:

Don't post a picture of your beautiful, new 25K square foot home and "forget" to mention that it's in North Dakota. At least put that in your original post-who do you think you are kidding?


Disclaimer-I moved out of state, but I don't post pics of my mcmansionChat Icon

Most importantly, make sure you delete them from your friends list b/c that really sends it home that you mean business!!! Chat Icon

I believe they exist purely to link everyone on the boards through Liza.

Seriously, she's ALWAYS the connector.

But then again she's a friend wh*re.

Re: Unwritten "rules" of the boards...

One pet peeve of mine is when someone posts a topic looking for help. You take your time to reply with a answer and then that person posts a reply that says "BUMP" or "ANYONE ELSE?"

It makes it out as though they weren't appreciative of your taking the time out to post your reply in the first place! lol

If you post a photo, don't feel the need to thank each person who said "aww, how cuteChat Icon Chat Icon " individually therefore bumping it to the top repeatedly!
