I'm sick of hearing about "karens". Like, I get it, it was funny and we've all seen those kinds of people, but the joke is fucking old. I'm mostly just mad because one of my sisters keeps using it over and over.
 
Anything SJWs say, but "oh sweet summer child" is especially infuriatingly patronizing.
For some reason, just reading the phrase immediately brings a rapidfire slideshow of Stephen Universe images in my head and I just want to hit people with a bat.


As a Latin American, this just makes me want to shove my fist down someone's throat.
 
toxic
salty
tilted
yikes
seethe
cope
dilate
bait

And basically any other low effort "lol u mad bro", "u must b trolling" or "I was only pretending to be exceptional" substitute.
The quickest and most effective way to shut down "u mad bro" is to say yes. The other phrases require a different approach.
 
X is the wrong hill to die on.
Fuck off, it's a perfectly good hill to die on.

Anyone using this has lost the debate that just happened. "You have made a convincing argument that due process should be applied to everyone, including paedophiles, because suspending due process based on the severity of the alleged crime is not only illogical but also allows governments to pull their critics from circulation, which could even include me in the future. But rather than engage with that I'm going to attempt to call you a paedophile in the most passive-aggressive way possible."

There are other, similar phrases, designed to dismiss an argument without going to the effort of actually saying why it's wrong (usually because they don't actually know):

"Yikes!"
"Urrrrghhhh!"
"Sir, this is a McDonald's Drive Thru"
"Educate yourself/I'm not here to educate you"
 
Ok, I admit I find "sir, this is a wendys" to be mildly funny.

Because in the context of Twitter at least it actually makes some sense, Twitter was never meant to be the great political forum people use it as today, it was meant for innocuous "just had a great lunch at Johnny's!" type stuff.
 
niggas who use chanspeak outside of imageboards are just redditors who want to be edgy so they go on 4chan. 4chan has been polluted with faggy redditor types since Gamergate and now 8chan is basically dead, 8kun is a sick corpse puppet on a stick of its former self.

Who cares! Just have your corn syrup anyhow please...
 
I hate it in general, but "lmao" after something that isn't funny at all and is usually self deprecating. "Just wanna die LMAO" shit like that. Like why even say that, what's the point. How is it funny.

God people that use that whole "Crippling depression/existential dread" """""""joke"""""" should just fucking end it all.

Yes, Chris Ray Gun, I'm looking at you, you absolutely worthless calcium depository and waste of skin.
 
  • X is a super food: mostly used in marketing, but it’s just an obvious cash grab. Sorry, you calling kale a “super food” won’t make me like it
  • We’re all in this together: it’s been repeated so much lately, that it’s annoying. Also, most people that use this phrase aren’t being genuine. I understand unity is important, but this phrase sounds trite
  • If you’re still X after Y (event), you’ve learned nothing: it’s a manipulative phrase that assumes you’ll automatically change your belief system after major events. Sorry, but humans are much more complicated than that
  • (Racism, sexism, homophobia, etc) is not an opinion: it’s another manipulative phrase, and doesn’t leave any room for debate. It also doesn’t help that there’s a lack of clear definitions of any said -phobia or -ism from people that say this
  • Love is love: an annoying phrase that was really popular around 2015. I get people want to support gays and all, but can there at least be less obnoxious euphemisms? Is that too much to ask?
  • If you are neutral in the face of injustice, you’ve chosen the side of the oppressor: thanks to Desmond Tutu, slactivists use this phrase as a scare mongering tactic, and the oppressor is always conveniently against said slactivist’s beliefs

Self-deprecation isn’t funny anymore. To be honest I found it pretty annoying when it first started up. Before all these youtubers found their #relatablelol goldmine, lots of emo faggots used this same sort of humour for humour. “I’m so depressed LOL xD.” God am I glad that weeb-emo cringe culture has been relegated to the dark chasm of discord.

On that note, I’m gonna go out and predict that the next youtube trend will be TTS discord server messages now that reddit and other platforms are so heavily policed and psyopped.

it seems that 99% of annoying shit on the internet was created by leftists or blacks. But yeah, the right can’t meme.
Freetards calling Microsoft "M$" gets pretty fucking tiring
I’ve seen this before, but like most things nowadays, I just ignore it. With most things I don’t immediately recognize or understand, I chock it up to kids being fucking stupid. My boomer ass can’t keep
I wince in physical pain when I hear/read people saying "real talk" at the start/end of sentences.
You have nigger culture to thank for this. Everyone wants to be black now, everyone wants to be a rapper or gangbanger or fucking both. Women with promising careers or opportunities to start families nig themselves out, then tyrone skips out when the baby arrives. Men with promising careers and the opportunity to be a real contributor to our country throw it away because they were raised to believe that only talking like you’re from detroit makes you cool. This wigger culture needs to die. Since when is it cool to spend your whole day smoking pot or god knows what else, wearing trashy unwashed clothes, speaking like a fucking south african and refusing to ever even try to seek employment. How anyone can see this culture and not think something dubious is behind it baffles me. Pop culture teaches you to not have kids, don’t seek stable employment or quality education, don’t dress nicely, ruin your body with “body modifications.” This is a brickwall in life being sold to dumb shit kids as the cool new lifestyle.
