Sheesh, everyone, quit jumping on Carm. She was merely trying to state an opinion, correct?
Anyway. What annoys me is tiny text like this. It's unnecessary, why use it anyway? People are going to copy and paste it, or quote it, to see what it says, so what's the point? To draw attention to yourself? It's quite annoying to quote something or copy and paste it somewhere just to see what someone says. >.>

I want to outlaw tiny text. I shouldn't have to press "Quote" just to see what you said.

People who use the word retarded on this forum as an insult, without knowing what it means.
It is a VERY nasty name for someone with any type of special needs <<. I have dyspraxia, so I get really offended when someone says that.
Also, someone who uses Poo as an insult d: It's something pre-schoolers say, not 10year olds. People who use that as an insult should grow up.

I can't even count the amount of times I've been called retarded in real life. Not so much here or any other part of the internet at least. Very offensive indeed.
I'f you think saying poop is going to offend me you seriously need to get off the internet and get a life already.

X3 I see this threads pretty popular... something that really annoys me to go along with Applefiend's annoyance.
'Spread the Love',
ok so... I get that. But also those little dogs almost everyone has in their siggy, I mean look, ok so their cute. But this annoys me:




Their not even
smiling, so why even have them up their? the whole idea is to spread the love? why would you have a scowling plushie in your siggy if your trying to get that massage through? I mean seriously...
[ oh you were a phonograph, I was a kid
I sat with an ear close, just listening
was there when the rain tapped her way down your face
you were a miracle and I was just holding your space ]

The puppies are unhappy but they have little hearts and spread the love on them, showing that even unhappy people can be nice. =3
Or at least that's how i saw it.
And honestly whether it annoys you or not it's not polite to post pictures linking back to their thread and complain about them...

lol! I have my siggies turned off, so I haven't seen those yet...that's hilarious! xD
Well...I know why people use tiny text. I can usually read it without copy-pasting, but when it's not worth it I get kind of annoyed xD
And I agree about using the word 'retarded.' I view that the same way as people who use 'gay' to call someone stupid. I kind of just want to smack those people with a dictionary and tell them to find something a bit more original/tasteful/that won't make them look like an ____. My brother's autistic and he's more intelligent than most of those punks. He's got a job interview at a big company tomorrow to be a computer tech person; I'm excited for him.

XD People always have SOMETHING to complain about. I mean come on, a FACIAL expression? If she'd changed them so they were smiling, everyone would be all "OMAIGAWD UR NOT BEING TRUE 2 THE ORIGINAL 111!!!!11!!11!!!"

I think some people use tiny text to discuss off-topic things in the hope that mods won't bother reading it and chastising them for being off-topic.
But it makes my eyes hurt.
I need a banner that says "Save Rosie's eyes and use LEGIBLE text"

Not my fault they link back, that was the original code I posted there, I didn't purposely Make them link back.
@mausolem-then why make them at all? I mean there are plenty of other CS pets that have smiles.
