Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

Something that makes you annoyed as hell when it really shouldn't, or something that makes you feel like a nerd for getting annoyed at it.

I'll start with a combination of the two: When people call chiptune music "bitcrunch"

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?
