What is with that annoying flea that people have scurrying around their DU posts?

[stopbush]

Really annoying.

I skip any post that features that bullshit. What is this, 1996?

[mikehiggins]

1. Yeah folks. Isn't it time to retire the bug? n/t

[Whiskeytide]

2. Uh oh. Here we go again. n/t

[DawgHouse]

3. You can turn off signatures and find peace.

6. Most of them are gone but a few seem to have survived that measure.

[jberryhill]

4. Some folks just seem to attract parasites

5. Don't know about you, but here's my response. . .

7. It's an homage to a former poster who was tombstoned

under what some believe to be questionable conditions.

Said poster was critical of Hillary Clinton, so the Clinton supporters did a lot of grave-dancing. This has evinced some back-and-forth involving the bug.

8. +1

[MohRokTah]

14. There's some re-writing of history, right there. eom

[fleur-de-lisa]

17. Says the grave dancer.

[Ed Suspicious]

18. This post makes me sick.

It's not unusual.

19. There seem to be

a couple of letters missing in your title. I think they are "e" and "r". And I think they belong after the second word.

[question everything]

23. Why? How does this bug convey any message? (nt)

[saturnsring]

9. on browser goto tools/internet options/advanced/multimedia uncheck play animations in web pages

[madokie]

10. But that sucks though

I want some animations to play but just like the poster this one is wearing me out.

[saturnsring]

22. like dawghouse said " You can turn off signatures and find peace." idk how to do that but maybe

s/he does

[Jack-o-Lantern]

11. It drives my cat nuts too.

[cwydro]

12. Oh boy.

[Warren DeMontague]

[hootinholler]

20. Geeze You Bet Yer Bippy is so 1970!

[Warren DeMontague]

21. "Geeze" is 1937, by jove!

[LiberalElite]

16. This again?

It's in solidarity with a DU member who was tombstoned for spurious reasons. For that matter, I too skip posts - every one who has that disgusting flea swatter gets put on my ignore list.

24. I was skipping copycat threads over the same thing, but you guys make it fun!
