3. Jackasses posting song lyrics without putting "song lyrics" in subject line.
Posting song lyrics is one of the dumbest fucking things here, and especially annoying when I click on a thread that I think is going to have something interesting or relevant, and then see it's some fucking song lyrics.

4. Hmmmm.
I could say blind insanity in general. Could insanity be considered a fad?

5. The "Mann Coulter" jokes.
Edited on Wed Sep-19-07 05:55 PM by Jamastiene
They are insulting and very hurtful to real TG people. Remember, she's straight and NOT TG, so those who do make that joke, please remember, she's one of your own, not ours. You keep her. You can have her. We, the GLBT community, do NOT want her. She's ALL YOURS. Now, quit trying to shove her off on us. She's not one of us.

9. True.
Followed by the automatic "so and so must be gay, because they're a right winger" ad nauseum crap.

But the Mann Coulter shit is particularly insulting. There are only about 1 trillion reasons to attack Ann Coulter without insulting GLBT people.

19. brazilians fucking?
:wtf:

The pirate speaks,"Donald Rumsfeld be givin' t' President his daily briefin'.

He concludes by sayin': "Ayeterday, three Brazilian soldiers were went t' Davy Jones' locker involuntarily.

" "OH NO!" t' President exclaims. "That's terrible!"

His staff sits stunned at this display o' emotion, nervously watchin' as t' President sits, head in hands.

Finally, t' President looks up and asks, "How many be a brazillion?" "

26. "Replace a word in any thread title with________"
Funny the first thru 30th time. Now it's old and sad, like a dying grandmother.
