The ones who claim the only way to get into college, a top 20 college, is to be a URM or have a “hook.”

The ones who complain their DC was rejected or waitlisted from their safety only to reveal the “safety” was in reality a top 20 college

Totally agree with this one. Those threads are so obnoxious. I've noticed some of them just being deleted lately, thankfully.

DCUMs unstable racists are my vote most annoying poster. So tired of them. I wish they would leave DCUM alone.

You are very obsessed for some reason. If someone doesn't like her dress or finds her insincere it's called an opposing opinion. When you call people racist because they don't feel
the same about that couple, it shows your intolerance. So what if others like or don't like the couple, respond to the comments you like. Ignore the others like most posters do.

Should’ve taken your own advice as you now seem triggered, pissed and defensive.

The people who think that anyone who exercises any degree of caution around COVID is a basement-dweller/mentally ill/hermit/science illiterate, and get very scream-y about it.

I bet people would be a lot less annoying here if they weren’t anonymous.

I really dislike the poster(s) who use(s) “dummy” to insult any opinion that he disagrees with. I believe that many of these posts are from a middle aged man, which makes it funny in a way.

They’re practically rabid in their fury and full of the usual grievances. But I’m old enough to have seen all of this before (eg. bashing “hippies” and the anti-war movement, calling women advocating for more rights “feminazis,” the war on gays, bristling at any minority group trying to stand up for themselves) and I know that the louder and angrier these folks get, the more certain it is that change is coming.

New totally annoying poster: the crazed people who think that anyone who doesn't rabidly and bizarrely hate MM the way they do is a "stan." Good God you people are annoying. I literally just like looking at pictures of pretty dresses, worn by MM and Kate Middleton, and pictures of the cute kids. I can mostly see those in the Cambridge thread because even if there are some KM haters, there aren't a lot and they can be largely ignored. It is, in contrast, impossible to do the same thing with the Sussex thread because there are pages and pages of often-racist vitriol that sounds totally batsh!t crazy, and any normal news or posts are buried. I have to read the fans thread for MM because of the crazies, which is annoying. Idk why MM haters are so unhinged. The KM haters are annoying too, but the MM haters are next-level with it.

Yes! MM haters are next-level crazy. It’s scary.

+1 Those are the absolute worst DCUM posters. They are vicious, unhinged and defensive.

+2.

Anyone: *tepid praise of Meghan Markle*

Honestly, the MM stans and the MM haters are equally annoying. I enjoy BRF gossip and have tried a few times to post in those threads. Inevitably I get called out for either over praising MM (if I say that I thought she did a good job in her Oprah interview), or being a racist hater (if I note that I thought her dress in the interview was dull).

If the tenor of conversation is such that literally any opinion gets you yelled at by someone, you guys have lost the plot. Step away from they keyboard. You don't even know these people. You are over identifying and way, way too over involved.

The same could be said in many other threads where people just get way too overheated and lose the ability to just have a conversation about the topic without getting angry or lobbing bombs. The MM threads are the best example, but I see it constantly in the school and parenting threads, even stuff like beauty and fashion. Some posters really need to dial down the intensity and learn to let things go.

The person that is super racist on Meghan and Harry thread, but terribly hurt when called out.
She also calls posters out who care so much about Meghan and are wasting her time on the thread!
After nasty posts about Meghan, she then can't take it when people point out that she is nasty.

The person who started a thread to call doodles ugly. Who has that kind of time?

Or a trump lover. It is so random tbh.

Or they call you a Russian because you've just proven them wrong. Crazy conspiracy from when Trump was in office I guess.
