Complaint about too many people posting about something I don't care about and think is discussed far too often recently.

[George II]

49. MIRT!!!!!

[petronius]

Faux-innocent inclusion of the word "concern," along with references to post count and 'joking' reference about zombies...

(Where X = the date screen name was created + 5)

[emulatorloo]

88. You left out a comma. You have no credibility.

[emulatorloo]

90. Alerting! No broad-brush attacks on my English teachers

[Binkie The Clown]

[yallerdawg]

Suggestion that McIver actually wrote your post and that you are plagiarizing her.

[femmocrat]

32. Meta!

Doesn't belong in GD. Post in ATA instead!

(JK)

[treestar]

33. Admonition to you that you have merely added one more post about the subject

Further information to you that we can walk and chew gum at the same time.

[MineralMan]

36. Post declaring that I just logged on.

Question about whether you expect me to actually look at the thread list?

[onehandle]

34. Is this the 'Official' Yet Another Original Post about Too Many Other Posts about Something, thread?

I'd hate to think we were duplicating efforts.

[MichiganVote]

35. You've got mail.

[MineralMan]

37. Notice that I do not reply to DU Mail.

Suggestion that you can post to me in public.

[MichiganVote]

39. No, no, no...I was only following the leads of others. No mail to you from me. :)

[George II]

40. Too much of that around DU these days, and everyone knows the "reason" behind them.

[turbinetree]

64. What are they-----------------I like to know

[Rex]

42. Outrage! You posted an article dated 3 months ago! Everyone should have read it by now!

I could care less about this OP, so let me write a few lines about how little I care about it.

Maybe two replies, no three in a thread I care nothing about.

MEMES!

I disagree with you, so therefore we must stay locked in mortal combat like those two dudes on Star Trek (Classic not TNG).

[Warpy]

43. Absolute fury at someone who wants to end nipicking a trivial subject to death

Asparagus cast at the OP's parentage, anatomy, proclivities and ultimate destination.

Frantic edit before this post gets deleted.

[MineralMan]

45. Overly polite, passive-aggressive response to furious post.

[Photographer]

44. Drunken post to get a hide.

[MineralMan]

46. Alerted for the wrong rule.

[Peacetrain]

47. Sigh.. MM you did me in before I even started..

Zucchini is coming in and you know what that means.. endless posts from me on what the heck I am going to do with all this stuff..

[MineralMan]

50. Locking! Wrong forum. Belongs in Cooking & Baking.

But, I have recipes for excess zucchini. Yes I do.

[Peacetrain]

52. Send them my way!!

Listening to HRC speech as typing .. she is doing a great job ..

[MineralMan]

55. They all begin with processing the zucchini

in your sink's DisposAll.

[Peacetrain]

56. ROFL! sunny beaches..

There are some threads that could use that processing process

[MineralMan]

48. Expression of surprise that this silly thread is Trending

on the DU Home Page!

[Saviolo]

51. Lengthy and wordy post

That has something to do with something tangetically related to the original post, with a great deal of wordy concern and information largely taken from articles provided in link form: http://www.boredpanda.com/faces-of-foxes-roeselien-raimond/

Along with lots of excerpts from the article that are not as relevant as the poster thinks:

This para is about something else entirely, but is needed for a little bit of context for the linked article and its tenuous link to the original post.

This para has the small snip that the poster liked in it.

This para is only here because not including it would have made the excerpt end too abruptly

And a grave closing para that doesn't have as much to do with the linked article -OR- the original post as the poster thought it did.

[MineralMan]

53. Sarcastic compliment on your brilliant reply.

Well done. Please proceed.

[Saviolo]

63. Staunch avowal that poster really will die on that hill

N/T

[pnwmom]

54. K & R

[MineralMan]

57. Complaint about your passive-aggressive reply.

We all know you didn't really mean that recommendation and that you're only kicking the thread to see your name one more time on DU.

[pnwmom]

58. Don't bash other Democrats.

[byronius]

59. Professed confusion in an attempt to illustrate some irrelevant point.

This is not my beautiful wife! Something about days. Going by or something, I'm not sure.

[MineralMan]

61. I ain't got time for that now...

[Boomer]

60. Belated response after the conversation has ended

Statement that emphatically repeats what has already been said, just not by this poster.

[MineralMan]

62. Thanks from original poster for the kick!

[Hugin]

65. Reply totally unrelated to OP.

Obviously posted as a reply to another thread in a different tab by a DU n00b. Possibly, even a different web forum.

Content of reply unintentionally extremely inflammatory when taken in the context of this OP.

[MineralMan]

66. Accusation of stalking.

[Hugin]

69. Reactionary response and denial.

Surreal content entered without checking to see where original reply was posted.

[beastie boy]

67. Just what you would expect from a Hillary/Bernie supporter

On edit: veiled suggestion that the OP is a hopeless partisan hack not deserving to be taken seriously.

[MineralMan]

68. Dismissive reply.

Clumsy attempt at a humorous riposte.

[beastie boy]

72. Generic personal insult

To the jury: this is not a personal insult.

[MineralMan]

70. Lengthy complaint about stupid 3-hour time limit on Trending

threads on Home Page. Argument about censorship, directed at site administrators. Demand for changes to unfair policy.

[leftofcool]

73. Not so veiled suggestion that you are a conspiracy theorist.

[MineralMan]

74. Immediate accusation of aggressive stalking.

Obscure reference to some other website.

[Tom Kitten]

75. Expression of amusement

Indicated by usage of acronym "LOL" followed by emoticon for different acronym "ROFL":

[MineralMan]

79. Message of thanks for your amusement.

[Purveyor]

76. Yet another 'meta' post that, convieniently is left off the list of alertable actions. "How sweet

it is"...

Now off to ignore with you.

[MineralMan]

80. Expression of confusion regarding your meaning...

[ismnotwasm]

77. Complaining about the post while repeatedly kicking it

By Starting subthreads

[MineralMan]

78. Expression of undying gratitude for your support...

[struggle4progress]

81. Incoherent off-topic reply

[Tom Kitten]

82. Obligatory mid afternoon kick for the evening crowd

Post showing concern for those where it's dark out and might otherwise miss an important discussion.

[Tom Kitten]

84. Rapid follow-up post stating previous post meant for original poster

Acknowledgement of error accompanied by blush emoticon:

[mcar]

83. Standard thanks for addressing this very important issue

[bravenak]

85. Obligatory +1

[hatrack]

86. Use of "At the end of the day" in some poorly clarified context

[ProfessorGAC]

91. Monsanto, Something Something

So there!

[Blue_Tires]

92. What's with that C. Everett Koop avatar again?

[MineralMan]

94. Yah, you'd better hide!

That's a caricature of my own mug you're looking at. A pretty good likeness, too.

It was done for a bio of me on another website by an artist, so I shrank it down to avatar size.

I ain't a handsome devil, but I am what I am.
