Re: Pet hates on BE!
I really don't like the way that a lot of threads, sometimes really interesting ones, get killed off when a few clicky mates start their banter and innuendo. Its always the same people and its wearing a bit thin now. Its getting so predictable that I follow a thread, then when a particular person starts to post, I stop following because I know thats the end of whatever the OP wanted to talk about.
Don't ask me who though, it would be cruel to post the names. But if they are reading this they should know who they are and perhaps it will ring a bell with them

Re: Pet hates on BE!
I hate it when people complain about positive comments in a negative thread but the same people post negative comments in positive thread (or try to derail the thread by talking about beer).
Nothing wrong with posting positive comments or negative comments but one rule for them and another rule for us is just hypocrisy.

Re: Pet hates on BE!
Agree with that one completely. My son's friend even says "lol" now in verbal conversation at the end of sentences. The urge to reach out and give him a slap is becoming too much to resist.
in a row is a sure sign of madness

Re: Pet hates on BE!
I hate it when one does a bit of self-depreciating humour (in the traditional British way) and then someone comes along and uses it as a tool to bludgeon you with (the new British way?)
The joke is really only funny the first time.

Re: Pet hates on BE!
I hate it when you're having an argument/debate/discussion with someone and they suddenly realise that they've got it wrong or have grabbed the wrong end of the stick and then just stop posting. No parting comment/agreement/settlement; just blank. Are they so petulant in real life?
