10 things we all hate about the internet

Recommended Posts

I wouldn't necessarily call myself a grammar nazi... even if I do go back and re-edit posts I made a few hours ago...

 

I re-typed my status update last night because of typos... Yeah, I'm the Hitler of grammar...

A grammar nazi is somebody who corrects somebody else's grammar every time they forget a capital or something.

 

And you have no idea how much your post hurts me. Start with the "A" at the beginning, and then the "y" in "they". And I would have put "to capitalize a letter or something".

 

I try to keep it to myself, but if you insist...

That's actually kind of ironic, you being a grammar nazi on a thread that's 10% about hating grammar nazis.

I like flame wars when I'm not involved, because lurking is fun. I can be a fangirl sometimes, I try not to though. Most the time I just chillax.

I hate number 4 with a passion. So damn annoying.

How I avoid a flame war. Step 1: Make a comment of my opinion that some jerk out there can't help but reply to. Step 2: Read the reply that tells how I'm wrong, they're right, and how I'm a horrible being for having a different opinion than them. Step 3: Reply to that block of text with "LOL!"

 

Renders them speechless every time :D

7. I'm a grammar Nazi in real life, but only care in forums when people have paragraphs of "text language."

 

4. I hate when parents look over my shoulder. I can't Roleplay or look at video game sites w/out them saying, "You should do more with your life," or "Aren't you too old for silly games?"

 

3. I found a Tracey Sketchit fansite once. I was like "WTF?" Does he deserve one?

 

1. Sometimes that's just plain annoying. I've had problems on other forums. KH13 seems really good about this though.

 

I'm surprised the "How to lose 15 lbs" adds didn't make this list.

I agree to 3 because I just came across an obsessive fangirl (or fanboy idk) who is obsessed with my favourite character.

Well we were talking about how we love this character and then I must have said something wrong and he/she starts to get all "OH NO YOU DON'T" and now I think he/she's trying to kill me ._.

9. Trolls

 

Yes, I'm not trolling.Even I find my own kind irritating at some points.Usually when I try trolling someone and it turns out they are actually trolling me, or when I come across trolls that instead of trying to rid people with flawed ideas and arguments, have flawed ideas and arguments themselves. However they take the number 9 spot because they are the spiders of the internet. They are pest themselves but remove even more annoying pest in the process

Agreed.

 

8. Spammers

 

Your in a chat room, or forum, trying to have a nice conversation when suddenly...

Yep, it's rather irratating. There I am, telling my friends how much I love Star Wars and when I am mid sente-

OK KNOCK IT OFF! But as annoying as spam is, it only makes it to number 8 because almost every website has a block feature now. And the spam is instantly removed from your life.

Also agreed.

 

 

5. People trying to be your friend when you don't want to be friends with them

 

It happens all the time in the real world, so it's bound to happen on the internet. We've all come across that one person trying to be nice but you don't really want to talk with them. It's not that they've done anything wrong but something about them is just irritating. You know they mean well and you don't want to hurt their feelings so you are stuck with them, constantly annoyed. Some might just tell them to go away. However some people realize there is a human being somewhere trying to befriend you and as a result you are forever annoyed.

Seriously, I can't stand people like this. I deal with this shit irl and on here. I say things to people to make them leave me alone, but they still try to talk to me. I'm like "Can you take a firetrucking hint?".

 

3. Fanboys/Fangirls

 

The scum of the internet in my opinion. They come in all forms but they seem to be immune to reason and logic. If you have a different opinion they will likely try to hunt you down and kill you for it.If you try to explain to them why you like something over something else they will still try to hunt you down and kill you. Fanboys and Fangirls are the zombies of the internet. Irrational, aggressive, and determined to destroy you.

Agreed.

 

2. Flame wars

 

You are having a nice friendly discussion and then, opinions differ. If there is one thing people hate it's another person with a different opinion. First comes a debate, with valid points and everyone is poilte. Then an argument starts. Most points aren't valid and instead of trying to convince each other why their opinion is better, they instead start to try and prove why the other person is wrong. Afterward personal insults get tossed around and now the discussion isn't about who will win the World Cup, but how stupid the other country is and how stupid all the people in said country are.

 

I disagree with this one, though. I love watching flame wars erupt, but they do get annoying when they are constant. It's just funny to see flame wars over things like Power Rangers (yes I've seen a 20+ page thread full of people arguing about Power Rangers).
