CanvasShoes, I wholeheartedly concur (though agree it’s a term not limited to this board).
When I am audio digitally ambushed by that word, a scenario ensues where I angrily-faced punch it to death, projectile vomit on it, and then pour acid over its twitching remains.
I fucking *** HATE*** that word.
I have a branding iron with an ‘F’ on it that I mentally sear with hellish burning on the foreheads of posters who use it.
It doesn’t wash off.
Ewwwww. The webpages are all stuck together.
<fap><fap><fap>

Most people first encountered FAP in the webcomic Sexy Losers back in the late 90s. Harmless.
Most people? Really? Wow, that is one popular webcomic (that I’ve never heard of).
If we’re on to annoying internet non-words now, how about “nom”? Grrrrr. Hate.
Vyl, Turnip. Simply vyl.
** silenus**, I don’t know what to do with you…
Nomnomnomnomnom…

(Argh! Missed the edit window when I was vomitting - so I shall continue)
silenus, at least you were straight up about it whatever it is you were doing. I trust that italicised action of yours** VT ** leaves you with the smell of burning head flesh.
Yeah, yeah… not because you have a bionic arm…
I really hate when people submit a post with every other word misspelled.
I had to read this sentence twice to make sure.
Well! (and to the others who educated me on its origins). I’m only faithful to the dope, so there!
How about leaving out pronouns when starting a sentence? This really bugs me:
“Went to the store and bought broccoli. Chopped the broccoli. Made soup.”
I get it that a lot of people are writing/posting from mobile devices, and it makes it oh so much easier to drop the “I,” but to me, it’s just plain irritating to read choppy sentences. You spend so much time texting, write a complete sentence already!
Choppin’ broccoliii, choppin’ broccollaaaayyy …
I have absolutely no idea why, but that made me laugh out loud.
I hate posts about what the poster hates. Because I hate hate.
Wait…
It’s a reference to Dana Carvey’s satire of the power ballad, which is what I had in mind when I mentioned broccoli, but dammit, my post stands as is in context of the thread in which i hAtE iT whEn pEopLe skIp proNoUns when starting sentences.
Maybe you remember an old Saturday Night Live sketch in which Dana Carvey plays singer-songwriter Derek Stevens who has cleaned up and is trying to make a comeback. But he shows up at the office of his producers (Phil Hartman and Sigourney Weaver) with no demo tape.
He claims he really has been composing though and sits at the piano to play his next hit, “A Lady I Know.” The lyrics describe a lady who goes to the grocery and buys broccoli. The bulk of the song is the line “She’s chopping broccoli” sung with increasing emotion.
However, thinking everything started on the Dope is a Doper thing.
It didn’t?
