Is there something on the DIS that just super annoys you?

[MoniqueU]

Sorry Monique but You can't just expect women who are married, have children, etc. to just pick up and moved based on advice received online or even when confronted with undeniable evidence. Denial is a process that needs to be worked through, just like denial after a death. Who wants to believe the worst of their spouse (or children, parents, etc.)? Give these women a break -- they're hurting, scared and possibly already have low self-esteem issues which are compounded by even lower self-esteem because they're wondering why they weren't good enough, etc. It's a long road from denial to anger -- some take that journey faster than others.

Ok well the number of people who claim it is a deal breaker on the dis is high compared to the number of those that grasp the situation when it is presenting itself. And then there are some that just never do seem to get angry they run for senate.
What happened to all those women who cheered that movie somethings gotta give???

I am helping a friend right now in the final stages of her divorce, he cheated, he told her she said ok its over. Had I have known more of the situation earlier she would probably of known earlier and why yes I do believe that would of been it for her then as well too. I don't think it took him but two weeks from the time he told her and the time she said see ya to be out of the house. And she is a SAHM with 3 kids and is in an apartment now. Her son is over at my house right now. These are the women I know. I have 3 myself and while honestly I donlt know that I would pack up and move I would probably be posting what LEGAL revenge I enacted or something along those lines. Lke buying him a chiauau or something and have my son drop it off at work. Name the dog bill or the other womans name stuff like that LOL.

Old/er inactive threads that are suddenly reactivated

Misperceptions claiming other posters' thinking Disney can do no wrong.

Posters who complain when the thread they started doesn't go their way.

"Text speak" used in a post. Not nearly the same as not knowing how to spell something.

On the other hand , the repeated use of "dinning" when the topic is not related to making noise.

Posts asking "what have I got/what's wrong with me/should I see a doctor" - given that even the medical professionals here can't diagnose via description only.

How addicting the DIS is.

Posters who keep editing their posts .

Original posters who delete their post/s when the thread doesn't go their way.

And finally (I promise!), first-responders on the CB who forget Rule 1: quote the entire original post, in case the OP edits/deletes it.

 

[Disneyland1084]

People who think their OPINION is fact.

ITA!

 

[alexandria674]

The fact that us west coasters are treated like 2nd class citizens LOL. Hey my park was the original dream and YES I DO like it better.

We are such the original dream we have Steve Martin and Donald Duck do a special show for us.

 

[Disneyadore]

People that come here,tell lies ore very exaggerated stories to get sympathy from other DISsers.

 

[Robinrs]

Ladies only posts or posts by people telling sexual things about underage children. Do they really think there are no horny men on this board?????

 

[TangaroaTiki]

Is there something here on the Dis that just completely gets under your skin?

For me it's when posters will repeat the same thing many other people have already said. And I am not talking about those long threads that you don't want to read but you want to give your input... but the ones that are only 4 posts long. You say... yes, BTMRR is open when MK opens and the next person below you writes the same thing an hour later!!!!!!

This just happened to me and I am annoyed because this person just goes around affirming what others have said to... idk, boost post count. I really should just put him/her on my ignore list.



What what about you all, I am curious. I hope these things aren't things I do but you never know...

No, nothing on the DIS annoys me, but I only read threads of interest

 

[Nancy]

What I don't like about The Dis is that many of the people here

seem to be holier than thou

never make mistakes

are ALWAYS honest and have never lied in their life

have never walked away with an extra dollar in their pocket from the cashier

have never ever thought about reusing refillable mugs

always report their ebay sales to the IRS

have 100K saved up for each of their children for college

can feed a family of 6 on a grocery budget of $40 per week

they eat 6 servings of fresh fruits & vegetables every day

donate thousands of dollars to charities each year

and are perfect in every way and are free of any human faults

exactly...and they never have credit card debt and only have a mortgage payment.

 

[DisneyBlonde]

I see the same few posters on lots of threads posting in a mean, almost troll-like fashion. I see their name and when I open the thread and read their post, it's almost always a flame. Give it a rest. Or up your meds.

 

[maxiesmom]

Those 3 are biggies!

People need to realize that when you post on a public forum, not everyone will agree with you, or see something the same way you do. Telling people to not respond to a post unless they share your point of view is just plain childish.

I know I have leaned as much from the people who have disagreed with me as I have from those who share my point of view.

 

[HakunaMatata2]

Nothing really annoys me, but it is interesting that so many can be annoyed by topics on a message board. I don't read many threads because the topic doesn't interest me, but that doesn't mean that someone else doesn't have a right to post it and others have an interest in responding to it.
So what of someone wants to ask again about crowds at a certain time of the year. Perhaps they never cared to read similar posts before because it wasn't of interest to them at the time.
So what if someone asks for a little personal advice. Perhaps that person is in a situation and wants to collect their thoughts before opening up to family and friends.
So what if someone asks again for another meatloaf recipe. Is that really such a problem to just pass by the thread if it is not of interest?
I guess just feel that when you are on a message board and find a uninteresting topic, just move on.

 

[happygirl]

I'm sure some of these have already been pointed out.

When I post something in a thread two post down below a person will post the same thing and the Op will quote and them and tell them it's a great idea.


When you are talking to someone and they want you to back up what you say with a link or something so you do. Then they tell your link is not right because they don't agree with the website.

People who attack other for spelling mistakes or grammar errors.

People who complained and got political and religions thread banned.

Poster who try to delete there threads when they get advice they don't want to hear

 

[kaytieeldr]

People who attack other for spelling mistakes or grammar errors.

Conversely people who visit a thread specifically created TO 'vent' about misspellings/misuse/poor grammar, and attack the participants in that thread.

Yep - that's why "Rule 1" came into being. It should be noted this is an individual DISer's "rule" and not one initiated by DIS Moderators or management.

 

[Free4Life11]

Yes! For me it's the thread titles that contain the phrase "Tell me about...." Have you not heard of Google? Why not just ask a specific question?

NEW RULE

its actually called the new rule, and there is a thread about it!!

OMGSTUNNING @ THIS!

Please please please! We do not need to know about your teenage son who got his girlfriend pregnant! We do not need to know about your PMSing! We do not need to know what brand of pad you use! We all know how you had your kid, but we do not need to hear about it!

FTR, I've never clicked on those threads. They've had it in the freaking title sometimes!

 

[SelfEmployedDebtFree]

The fact that us west coasters are treated like 2nd class citizens LOL. Hey my park was the original dream and YES I DO like it better.

I'm in NC, and that was great!

 

[PolyndianPrincessJes]

Which is why we have a million posts asking the same things over and over, as someone pointed out as their most annoying thing above. It's a domino effect.




Certain overused phrases annoy me, like "hypocrisy at its finest!"

Mine are "that is so telling" and "speaks volumes."

My child is wearing a stupid hat!

Actually this is a picture of him 16 years ago! I wouldn't post a current picture... besides the fact that he'd KILL me!!

I had to quote you because now the picture in your signature is MJ, and he was wearing a hat when I glanced down.

 

[minniecarousel]

Several things bug me (& I think they've all been mentioned already):

- the first poster to reply for the thread must quote the thread, especially if it's controversial. (see, I'm just nosey enough to NEED to know the original post!)

- resurecting old threads (like this one - so why am I responding?!)

BUT, the number one thing that bugs me about the DIS:

People who post "results" in their thread title! Living on the West Coast, we don't see the Olympics the same time you guys see it in the East. And I don't want to know who won: Idol, Bachelor, SYTYCD, etc, so I don't go to those threads, but occasionally some idiot will post right in their thread title the result! PUH-LEEZE! How self-centered! Oh, it didn't occur to you that we aren't seeing a network show at 6 PM? We are 3 hours behind you, you know!

whew - I feel better

 

[rgf207]

Here are a few things that annoy me

1. When people will ask what the weather will be like on a certain day 6 months ahead of time. The weatherman can't even predict tomorrow's weather. How the hell are we going to know what it will be like for your trip in January 2010.

2. People who come here asking if they should be feeling mad/upset/guilty/jealous etc. For the love of God, you have free will. You don't need a diser to tell you how you should feel.
