Default Re: What\'s your pet peeve?

This is a great thread with some true howlers in it. Well done, folks.

One small posting pet peeve I have is when somebody writes a post a minute or two after someone else with the same content; they go back and edit their post to say, "Oh, xxx just said the same thing but he types faster!" And that's it.

Why don't they just delete the post? I'll tell you why: because they're proud of themselves and want everyone reading the thread to know they came up with that joke/knew the answer to the question too. So they leave the edit in, but don't do the obvious thing which is just to delete the redundant post.

PJ,

Yea that irritates me too. It's too bad some people here put as much effort into reaching their post count quotas as cops do to reach their citation quotas for moving violations.

And thats how thread that should have about 30 legitimate replies have 95 responses to wade through.
