1 year agoI have a pet peeve around people saying “this.” When they agree with someone. Idk why… I was hoping I wouldn’t see that here but unfortunately it’s cropping up.
My concern is that and a bunch of other reddit-isms flood the site. I don’t mind redditors coming here but I hope the site can still have its own identity.
There are a few others:
- “at least the <inanimate object> is ok” on videos where someone gets hurt
- “no shoes therefore dead”
- “some ninja is cutting onions”
- “sir this is a Wendy’s”
- Etc.
I mean this reddit post complaining about annoying phrases came out 9 years ago. 9 YEARS. And since then I continue to see so many of those and others.

I don’t want to gatekeep either. But certain phrases repeated over and over is just so irritating.
I’ll take “things I give no fucking shit about” for 500, Alex.
