How can you know if a poster is male or female on an anonymous forum? Seems stupid to post such questions.

Well when they answer “Not a man but...” Why answer when the question isn’t directed at you?



That responder could still be lying about their sex. Iy's just a stupid style of question to ask when there's no possible way to check. Clearly, you like to ask these questions, more power to you, just know you are annoying, not just for the stated reason, but your questions are incredibly juvenile " do guys like pink hair?" work on your self esteem.

It is astounding how stupid the average American is. What's even more astounding is that half of America is dumber than that!

Pre-covid, OPs in the travel forum who'd post something like "I need a vacation. I have Southwest points. Where should I go?" without saying ANYTHING about interests, ages, etc.

There was like one of these every day.

So random and neighborhood-specific and I only see these posts for select parts of Montgomery County. Take it to your neighborhood listserv or Next Door.


OMG and worse (but I guess we don't see it as often thanks to COVID):

"Is there a stomach bug going around?"

Around where? The entire DC area? Yeah, I bet at any given pre-COVID time there are a dozen kids in every school that have a stomach bug. Really a question that betrays almost no understanding of statistics.


I'm with you.

I really hate when things like math, science, and geography are disrespected.

That poster on all the MCPS threads that apparently keeps a running list of administrators and teachers at every school who are teaching literally any anti-racist material and interjects their outrage in every single thread about GreatSchools ratings. "Oh, you think [<7 GS School] is good? Well they teach that miscegenation is not a mortal sin!!! They say a white person maybe did something bad once!! Watch this YouTube video and read this John McWhorter piece!!!! And you'll see the real victims of racism are white people!!!"

I don't typically use the terms myself, but "boomer" and "cool story, bro" are funny when used correctly.



A few years ago. Though I don’t mind it being used antagonistically with the understanding that it’s absolutely not funny.

Posters who ask something basic that could have been answered faster by googling it instead of posting. Example: the person asking for help on the Framing Brittney Spears Documentary because they couldn’t find it on Netflix or Amazon. Then asked a follow up. Less effort to have googled it. Or even read the first page of the thread they were posting on.

Oh, yes, I'm sure in 40 pages someone has mentioned all the $500k HHI "we're not rich! especially not in DC!" posters.
