    For me it has to be the one and only "yore ma".
    I just imagine the poster sitting in glee at his/her pc at home delighted at their wit and intelligence while the rest of the boardies I'm sure thinks "god..what a fcukin gob****e..can't even think of something smart to say.."
    I think every poster that posts this should be banned from here on in.




    guaranteed some fcukin eejit will say "yore ma" in this thread ".

    "yore ma" and "+1" should be site banable.


    Edit: Also "I for one welcome our <insert group here> overlords" and any 4chan memes.

    The "another mod on a power trip" phrase is terribly annoying. Stop trolling/being a jerk/posting spam or porn and you won't get banned. K thanks, stfu!

    Yeah, that's pretty terrible too. People generally don't understand the context it was originally intended to be used in.

    These catchphrases are not uniquely terrible on boards.ie. They're terrible when used anywhere, on any website at any point in time.

    To be fair, it could just be a typing error! But I dont get why anyone would find it funny.
    "yore ma" is definitely one of the more irritating phrases.

    You know what I hate? Not a phrase particularly, but when posters you know for years suddenly go and have their name changed by an all-seeing hidden higher power.

    I didn't know what it meant for a long while and now that I do know, it's still pointless.

    I for one welcome our new overlords

    And the mods are the worst offenders! Usually used when a new mod is appointed

    Gobshites saying "X much?", where X can be angry/bitter/confused/etc.

    Also, "/facepalm" is now worn out completely but it still serves a useful function as a kind of stupidity filter, signaling that any post containing it should be ignored. People posting the ascii art of Picard facepalming should be shot dead as well.

    That was one of the last official uses before it wore out. \o/ That post was probably the straw that broke the camel's back. But shoot me anyway, it turns me on. :pac:

    Indeed. I've started a few polls here and you always have someone moans about the Atari Jaguar option being missing.

    I don't understand the tradition, I don't particularly want to learn and it won't be in any poll I start

    " :rolleyes: "

    serves no function except to annoy the recipient whilst similtaneously identifying the composer as a total dipshít.

    http://wiki.boards.ie/wiki/Atari_Jaguar
    An ancient games console that some boardsies are pretty fond of.
    Usually the I don't care option in a poll. In one poll long, long ago about favourite games consoles, someone complained that there was no Atari Jaguar option and someone else disdainfully replied "Atari Jaguar?! Atari Jaguar is other" and so it began.
    It is now an offically a legend of the boards.ie due to this poll.
    This is has also been immortalised as a gathering card.

    tbh

    "PC" and "bleeding-heart". Mainly because the poster who uses them never has any idea what the mean (if anything).

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Yes! They just drive me insane, every other day (probably an exaggeration) I have to look up some new acronym or some old one I couldn't be bothered to remember! I often wondered if people used acronyms in public until I actually heard somebody say lol!!! Ridiculous!
