Thinly fcuking veiled "I'm an eejit"

    The following is a list of people who, in my opinion, are not even "not funny", but are actually minus funny:


    <mod snip, looooong list of names removed>


    Why? Because they are the perpetrators of the cringeworthy, obvious and intelligence-lacking post that is the "thinly veiled" post. It's everywhere now, youd be hard pressed to find a thread that doesnt feature it. Is it just me who dispises it and dies a little inside everytime they read it?

    Am I overreacting AH? I mean, I thought it was funny about 6 weeks ago when I saw it first yeah, but daily since then its starting to wear on me now.

    That list up there is all within the last 2 weeks, there was a **** load more posts and posters who did it but I wasnt arsed listing them out anymore. Are you part of this list of unfunny people? If so why dont you explain to me why you do it and if, when you do it, you think you are the most wonderful funny person on the planet when you do it!

    I'm not gonna say "In before" you know what because that way I can give the unfunny folks a chance to write "thinly veiled" something thread to this thread and, you know, because this thread is about "thinly veiled", and they post "thinly veiled" back to it, they are actually so funny its unmeasurable!

    That is all.

    /rant.

    Here's a "mad" idea.
    Bring it to feedback and ask if anyone else thinks something could/should be done about it.

    Or report them.

    Or ask a mod if it would get modded if reported.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,153 ✭✭✭Rented Mule


    Eejit is the word that comes to mind.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,783 ✭✭✭Pj!


    He probably has a point to be fair


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 3,838 ✭✭✭midlandsmissus


    I just realised while reading that that I could never make a 'list of people' thread because you're all a big blur to me and I never remember anyone's names or contributions except for:
    Brummytom...for some reason?:confused:

    If you type "thinly veiled" into the search box you get your list.

    I'm not actually walking around with a mental blacklist of these people.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,346 ✭✭✭✭jimmycrackcorm


    Op is missing from the list.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,836 ✭✭✭Colmustard


    Phew that post took man hours, the op is upset and fatly veil upset.

    Haha, a mental blacklist would have been cool. :D

    Interesting, I wonder what a search of 'blast them with piss' would come up with..

    People say a sight of ****e around here, on the internet and in life in general that's overused, unoriginal and not funny but they do it because it was funny at one time. It's just how it works, someone makes something funny and then everyone batters it to death with overuse.

    Thinly veiled is just the new thing at the moment.

    Jaysus OP, talk about endearing yourself and making friends.

    Please don't do this again. It's mean.
