I'll start with one that isn't really related to chuds or fascists, but it still annoyed the hell out of me for years:
"Wow, really? Seriously? Wow, just... wow" as a method of snark carpet bombing. I hated how little substance such remarks and responses had. They were used everywhere for a while about almost everything. The worst moment of its use was when I was at a social function and someone I knew belted out "wow, really?" while looking at me and people around me. I asked what the matter was, and got "seriously?" as a response. Then he walked away saying "wow, just... wow." To this day I still have no idea what exactly happened there but he must have felt very smart and quippy about it.
I blame Lisa Simpson for that one. Maybe it was the last gasping moment of Simpsons cultural relevance, like a noxious gas wafting from a dying body.
I'm very, very happy that "gay" as an insult has lost its teeth outside of the most isolated chud bubbles across the internet. Sometimes I do see it used, but it's often at the expense of the speaker, making them sound really out of touch, even old. It's even better when they get mad at people for not taking it the way they want it to be taken.
"I am socially liberal and fiscally conservative" is practically a punch line now. The few times I still see it, even in public and offline, it's often from the kind of person that is so out of touch that they still think Brad Pitt is every woman's dream date.
except for bacon, the rest are still very prevelant on stormfront :agony-soviet:
I think :reddit-logo: was still riding a carninist high thanks to :jordan-eboy-peterson:
they'll keep doing it until everybody has gone through shitting themselves in public while trying the carnivore diet. which will take literal decades due to the part of the userbase that never is in public and only shits themselves at home.
I know someone who still uses the gentleman and a scholar line a lot.
I'll throw it out there when I'm rudely helped in a blunt and unintelligent way that still works. I work in a kitchen so this is pretty often.
wtf, I had a very old teacher in elementary school (he was like 70 or something) who said that a lot. didn't know it became popular on reddit.
"removed"
Edit: Oh it's a banned word. Duh, silly me.
You probably know the word tho, it's the combination of "feminist" and "nazi"
I'm glad it's not used as much now. It used to be all over youtube comments.
That word stopped being used roughly around the time :trump-anguish: started normalizing fascism without the usual decorum and masks. The change was almost instantaneous on Fox News.
Incidentally: rest in piss Rush Limbaugh, you tumorous chunk of shit
JK Rowling. She was always a shitty writer, but it’s especially cool she’s now viewed as the trash person she always was.
Buying into the misogynistic stereotype that women can't write, I see.
Anyone can be rude on the internet: Why don't you come to 124 Whitehouse Rd, Cramond, Edinburgh EH4 6DQ, and call me a "trash person" (another misogynistic trope) to my face?
:leslie-shining: I’ll send you some packages in advance.
I’ve never watched them, but I’ve heard they’re awful lol
The good part of Harry Potter, to me, has always been Wizards doing quirky things that only make sense to them. There's a couple scenes, mostly in the first movie, which capture this feeling pretty well. If that's all the movies focused on they might be fun even if the writing was weak.
Unfortunately about half the first movie and nearly all of the second is an attempt to do a dark drama with wizards, and that's a genre that needs good writing and a big tonal clash that would need to be handled delicately, and JKR's script just isn't up to the task.
Yeah, I was down with the first three movies cause it was Adventures in Wizard School. I took it for that and could suspend a lot of disbelief but once it started getting 'serious' the massive silliness of the core premise became harder to ignore.
im glad 23 skidoo is finally over, that shit was eveywhere
Remember when every video game franchise just tried to become CoD? Or some kind of shooter?
Did you know XCOM has a third person shooter in the series? What the fuck?
I sure do.
It's too bad the "realistic high fidelity means rusty broken down ruins everywhere" artistic laziness fad hasn't died yet.
not only is there an XCOM 3rd person shooter, it was originally going to be the series reboot for modern systems. The community raged until they decided to make an strategy game again
R***rd going the way of the dinosaurs is good, coupled with ppl with learning differences/disabilities being there to basically be the butt of a joke.
If you'd asked me a couplea weeks back I would have prob said people seem generally more aware of nazi apologia stuff like clean whermacht myth and all that but... what with recent events I can see a Michael Bay movie celebrating brave WW2 Ukranian partisans fighting off dastardly Soviet forces so there's that.
Some time around 2010s my school (and surely everywhere else) had a big "retire the R-word" campaign and to this day I'm astonished that it worked, kids were really mean back then
I still hate the "sammich" spelling/pronunciation. It's a reliable indicator of whether someone's a douche.
What happened with Emma Watson? For a while she was like President of Feminism and now I feel like I have seen her since Beauty and the Beast.
None that are AS stupid, but I do hate the current "Hitler youth short haircut with a lumberjack beard" fad.
Just get a mohawk FFS I've had one since I was 18 they're fucking awesome I'm 32 now and this is just my hair for life.
Same, it's either that or a mullet depending on how long I let it go
I do hate the current “Hitler youth short haircut with a lumberjack beard” fad.
yeah, it's fucking gross.
The only person I know with that mustache is a firefighter who's built like these guys, so it kinda works
yeah, the Cool Gamer Guys moved on to wispy wannabe Tom Selleck mustaches instead of the 1930s strongman ones
The general trend of 1990's comedy to have flat monotone narrators and actors who over-emote like a silent film character. Snack food advertisements had it real bad.
I wish Adam Sandler "be obnoxious and stubborn until revenge achieved and sex trophy attained" movies didn't keep shuffling on year by year. Last I checked they were still going.

All the memes that are just "phrase: item" seem to have died. They aren't copy paste as much as they once were, it's like people started using pirated copies of Photoshop instead of mspaint.
