Humor Since I think we haven't been having enough fun lately on OSNews, I decided it's time we do something fun for a change. We all have our little pet annoyances when it comes to other people's comments. Fixed expressions or comment styles that annoy the living daylights out of you. Here are mine.

This is just a selection. I'm sure you boys and girls can come up with a load of other recurring comment annoyances.

I guess I'd have to say that my #1 Internet forum annoyance is editors who use the phrase "boys and girls" in referrence to their readership. (Outside of romperroom.com, of course.)

Edit: Oh yeah. And people neglecting to provide a useful subject line for their posts...

i hate the "boys and girls" thing almost as much as i hate individuals who feel the need to address everyone as, "kids" or "kiddos." notice the lack of capitalization ;)
