Most annoying DCUM posters... name yours.

[Anonymous]

The innuendo poster, worse than an adolescent boy with his need to insert jokes about sex into everything.

The clearly fake sex posters in the relationship forum who copy and paste from playboy forum or whatever, and think no one notices.


The posters who ask for gift ideas as if all men and women are the same.

I have no problem with the my SO is into XYZ, should I go with option a or b type questions. It's the ones with zero effort that irk me.

I love you.

The apostrophe issue is painful to see. "Mom's", "Dad's", "teacher's", "daughter's": these are not possessive plurals, people.

Honestly, I just don’t care to correct AutoIncorrect. <— see? Arrogant bastard.

I don’t think anybody should spend time proofreading a post on DCUM unless it’s somehow very important. We are on our phones, trying to hit submit before the ads refresh and our post gets wiped, and in top of that we have life to worry about. It’s not healthy to stress over an autocorrect error. This isn’t a job application or something.

I can tell the difference between an autocorrect/errant thumb issue and a grammar mistake that an adult should know by now. Won’t say a word about the former. Learn the latter and maybe you’ll finally get that promotion at work and become DCUM rich! You’re welcome!

The posters that diagnose every shitty husband with ADHS or autism. Maybe he's just a lazy asshole.

Omg!! YES!! No matter what problem or issue there is with the husband—it’s always “he’s on the spectrum or has ADHD”.

Just by reading these boards you would think 95% of DCUM husbands have Aspergers and/or ADHD.

I dislike both:

The people ready to diagnose everyone with ADHD or Aspergers.
The people who have self-diagnosed as ADHD in order to explain away their rude, unkind, selfish behavior.

ADHD is a real diagnosis but it's not a justification for being a jerk. Even people with ADHD have to apologize or compensate when their disorder hurts others, just as someone with depression or anxiety is still accountable for saying or doing hurtful things, even if it's their illness explains why they did those things. But it's especially tiresome when a poster is going on and on about how it's "different for them" because of their ADHD and then it turns out they just did a self-diagnostic online and have never even sought treatment.

This. I have ADHD and ASD. It's really freaking hard, but I work very hard not to hurt people, and when I do I try to make it right. It sucks when people use these diagnoses as an excuse to be lazy, selfish, and mean, all it does is reinforce negative stereotypes.

Or the Big Pharma Rep Troll.

The psychic reader

[Anonymous]

The posters in both Diet & Fitness and Beauty & Fashion who are obsessed with dieting and aging. I think I need to just stay out of those forums, even though I love fashion and always enjoy discussing fitness, because it’s too depressing.

[Anonymous]

The poster who always says "I'll bite". The poster who uses the term "navel gazing". The poster who calls everyone a drama queen.

Still, do enjoy this board.

[Anonymous]

The people who tell parents whose kids are struggling with public school distance learning to just homeschool, hire a full-time tutor, or put them in private, as if that's an easy option for everyone.
