[QUOTE="rounser, post: 228391, member: 1106"] It's all opinion, eh? What ages - and what doesn't - is a personal thing. The WotC boards are, IMO, far worse than ENBoards because of the "WHAM! Dig dig dig" thing that they all find hilarious, and keep on using again and again and again... As far as the internet in general goes, the hundreds of variations on "Worst. X. Evar." have begun to annoy me. It was clever in the context of the original scene from the Simpsons, thanks to the delicious irony involved in Comic Shop Guy saying it after Bart implies that he and all the other internet geeks owed the creators of (by implication) the Simpsons for hundreds of hours of free entertainment - not the other way around. Removed from context and requoted by internet geeks who may or may not be oblivious to the "laughing at you, not with you" irony of them requoting it (because of what that scene symbolises and what the Comic Shop Guy represents), and it strikes me as just....really lame. Then again, "A WINNAR IS ME" and "Wehre is teh funney?" don't seem to be aging at all. Subjective, eh... [/QUOTE]
