Which type of post-whore are you?
There are several basic types of people who post on this board. Can you tell which one you are?
A) Catch-phraseologist: They take portions of previous posts and make inside joke references to them. The most frequently-seen of these are "brillant" and "IsTrue( )". Newcomers to the site are confused and try to correct these apparent errors, while the seasoned veteran readers don't find it at all amusing. Continued pathetic attempts at humor like this will be met with a stapler to the face.
B) Uber-geek: These argumentative assholes will write up a dissertation-sized response in which they go into detail about processor architecture and kernel operations, even if the WTF has to do with Javascript. They ignore the true nature of the problem originally posted, and prefer to engage in pointless debates with other uber-geeks. To these people, sex involves a keyboard, and no physical contact.
C) The one-liner: It's as simple as that, they post one line that gives no further insight or comedic value to what everyone else reads. It could be as simple as "W... T.... F!?!" Thank you for the affirmation that we are, in fact, viewing The Daily WTF. There was no point to your post, my life would have been better without it because I wouldn't have wasted 2 seconds reading your trite submission. Quite a few of these people are "Anonymous" posters because they are afraid that registering an account with their email address will cause satellites to beam communist thoughts into their brain via microwaves.
D) The optimizer: These geniuses quickly identify that the post of the day has logic flaws, spelling errors, or over-complex methods of performing simple tasks. As a way of showing off their programming skills, they re-write the post of the day to be the fastest and most stable piece of code known to man. If you printed their code out, you could take it to a bank becuase it's made of gold. Figure it out bonehead, the code was posted because it sucks. No one cares if you can write it better. It's especially fun when they "optimize" it in a different programming language, which makes the whole concept even less useful.
E) The "first" post: They like to be at the top of the list, with the fame and notoriety of having the very first response to every article. These people are also one-liners, because they never have anything else to say except "First!" These people are tard-monkeys, useless members of society who will most likely grow up to be politicians. 'Nuff said.
F) The whiner: They rarely have anything to contribute to the topic. Instead they complain about how people's conversations are going off on a huge tangent, and they try to find new and creative ways to insult those people like calling them names in different languages, or coming up with overly-descriptive lists of the types of people that piss them off. These people should be shot.
