I do not find any of them annoying.
There are a few people who I think are simply trying to stir the pot. I "alert" on them if I believe that the moderators should evaluate their posts.
Other than those few, I think that most of the people -- even those who post things I strongly disagree with -- are trying to express their opinions and feelings, and to make sense of the changes that are happening (or not) in this time period.

9. I know there's always a certain amount of us talking about HOW we're talking... |
|
but it seems unusually high these days, for some reason. I guess it's just the transition that has sparked all the navel-gazing, but it just seems like the same six threads are getting posted over and over and over again. :shrug:

couples who find themselves having the same fight, time after time. Quite often, if each of the two is willing, they can find better ways to disagree. It doesn't mean that they are going to see things eye-to-eye, but they can avoid the wasting of energy and the other damage that fighting does. There is the same potential here on DU.

4. People can get over it if people criticize Obama |
|
The day that we're not allowed to criticize those in power or soon to be in power is the day that this site loses all relevancy. After all, just what are we supposed to talk about otherwise? This is a discussion forum after all.

15. I'm thinking this will get better once Obama finally does something that pisses off |
|
some of his "my-President-elect-right-or-wrong" cheerleaders. There are still too many people on here that seem to be blinded by their positive feelings towards Obama, and equate any criticism of anything he does with not "supporting" him or covertly supporting Repugs.
"What, you don't support Obama's pick for such-and such?!?!? You must not trust his judgment, unlike purehearted true believers like myself. Would you prefer President McCain?!?!

and the posts with people (who apparently don't understand what the term means) calling her a "concern troll."
