    One that I don't think has come up here yet, but is often found in threads like this. Someone will be like "I really don't like X." Someone will then immediately reply to do X, and think they are very clever.

    Like, "I don't know why but I don't like when sentences end with a preposition." Someone will think themselves very clever and reply with like "Why? What's up?"

    I think because it's too obvious to be funny, and also just like very low grade cruel? Like they just told you they don't like the thing, why would you go out of your way to do it?
