What words are in your trash can here at DU?

[Phentex]

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Omaha Steve (a host of the The DU Lounge forum).

Since I was looking at my profile, I decided to look at my trash can. Obviously it's been a while since I trashed anything. I thought I trashed the word *rump years ago but it was gone so I added it again. Here are the others.

NO JUDGEMENT ZONE PLEASE *********

Barr
Mueller
Northam
Palin
porn
RFK
*rump
Zimmerman
Zimmy

1. LOL. What an interesting thread idea. I'll bite.

Hamas
Israel
moore
pedo
roy

I'd forgotten about this feature. Do wildcards work? Can you enter a list or a two word item? I wonder these things in Search, too.

[Phentex]

3. i don't know

It's pretty useful but I did forget about it, lol

[Xavier Breath]

2. Too many to list here.

Some political, some just minor annoyances. All being necessary.

[Phentex]

4. I probably need to use it more

sometimes I'm just in a mood

[Xavier Breath]

15. It certainly lowers the stress level.

[Different Drummer]

5. I've never used that feature.

Never really thought of its existence. I may have to check it out since it might keep my blood pressure on an even keel.

[Fla Dem]

6. Very few.

heart
hearts
valentine
valentines

One Valentines Day season I got worn out with all the back and forth on posts about valentines and hearts, they were overwhelming non-valentine posts. So I blocked them.

pellucidly

After a while I just found this word to be irritating. Which is a bit unusual for me, because I generally don't let minor stuff bother me. It just came across as a bit elitist which I'm sure was not the poster's intention. I don't even remember who it was.

That's it.

[Different Drummer]

7. The "pellucidly" poster was probably Malaise.

I've never seen anyone else here use it. I think Malaise has an unofficial copyright on it.

[Nittersing]

8. I haven't trashed any words. But I *do* trash individual threads. nt

[Niagara]

9. Apparently I have a long list of word annoyances....

Talking about food, especially food that I can't consume can really annoy me. I generally go on intermittent fasting periods too so most of the time I don't want to talk about food.

I hate Star Wars so the May 4th thing is super annoying to me.

I hate NFL and football.

I hate it when people attempt to tell me where I can and can't shop. I work for my paycheck and I'll shop where I want to. I also hate it when people push dis-savings stores like Aldi's. I've told people in person that they need to stop pushing Aldi's and why.

I don't understand the war/genocide that's happening in Gaza-Israel and I'm not going to pretend that I understand what's happening because I don't. Fighting about it on DU isn't going to solve the situation. Palestine is listed twice because apparently it didn't take the first time.

I hate it when people complain and whine about certain commercials and certain TV channels. There's a solution...turn the TV off!

I also hate it when people marginalize people that have tattoo's. Don't like tattoo's? Don't get one, problem solved.

11. That explains a few things! n/t

[Niagara]

13. Harker!

Where have you been hiding? It's good to see you!

[Harker]

14. Always my pleasure, Niagara!

Futzing around in the lounge, and getting ready for winter.

Hope you're well!

[Niagara]

16. Nothing wrong with lounging in the Lounge

Oh yes, winter ...it'll be here before we know it.

Thank you. I'm doing well. I hope that you're doing well too!

[True Dough]

29. Wow!

You're not only the Hallow Queen, you're the Trash Queen! And I mean that in a sense only applicable to this thread topic!

[Niagara]

37. That's 12 years worth of annoyances, True

I didn't even list them all.

[True Dough]

38. At least

the word "True" hasn't made the list... yet!

[Niagara]

41. Dough hasn't either!

[True Dough]

42. But it's rising!

[Skittles]

45. a lot of yours are on my list

I too detest the I/P thing, they ALL make me sick, they hate each other more than they care about anything

I also have Bernie Sanders on my list because I don't give a FUCK what he does or thinks but somehow he always manages to slip through

[Harker]

10. I have 25 words in my trash can...

Last edited Wed Nov 20, 2024, 07:04 PM - Edit history (1)

all of them in aid of reducing the number of animal related and "bad cop" posts I need to wade through.

I like animals as much as the next guy, but I'd sooner spend more time with Lily and Tosca than reading about or watching videos about other people's pets.

I suppose I similarly dislike bad cops, too.

[Wicked Blue]

25. I love my dog and like cats

but the words cat, kitten, kitty, puppy, pup, etc. are on my trashlist. Also the word Wordle.

This makes me sound like a cranky curmodgeon. While that's probably true, I mainly come to DU for news, political information, commiseration, snarky humor, science and anthropology info. I have no interest in cat videos and the like.

[Harker]

47. I'm with you on that.

My cranky, curmudgeonly bona fides extend to the inclusion of several cats' and one dog's personal names.

And 'kitteh.'

[Wicked Blue]

48. Kitteh, absolutely

DU curmudgeons, unite!

[BWdem4life]

12. Just the f-word. nt

[JoseBalow]

19. Furry?

Right with you there!

[True Dough]

30. Fart?

But "gas" still gets a pass!

[JoseBalow]

34. Fornication?

[True Dough]

35. Isn't that

SPECIAL???

[SCantiGOP]

17. anything to do with cats

sorry, i have a cat and I like cats, but seeing random pictures daily of people's cats is not interesting.
And even though I trash it, it still shows up all over my home page.

[Wicked Blue]

26. Amen!

[LuckyCharms]

18. Just one word..."LuckyCharms".

That way, I don't have to read my shit.

Saves me some embarrassment.

[Harker]

24. Are you a copromancer?

[LuckyCharms]

27. Harker, you know I don't understand big words.

[True Dough]

31. Harper wants to know

if you've romanced any police officers. C'mon, do tell!

[LuckyCharms]

33. Not really...er...define "romance".

[True Dough]

36. Probably involves

handcuffs...

[Harker]

39. A shit reader.

[JoseBalow]

20. It's just for words in a thread title, right?

It does not apply to posts, signatures, user names, or anything else?

Will those threads still show up on the homepage, like ignored users do?

Auto-trash by keyword

When you auto-trash by keyword, discussions which contain that keyword in their title will be removed from your view when browsing the site. To add a keyword, enter it into the box below. You may enter a single word (eg. chicken) or a string of words (eg. corn flakes). Capitalization is not important.

[Iggo]

22. Yep, just thread titles.

And only inside the forums.

I still see my trashed words in thread titles on the home page.

[JoseBalow]

23. Thanks!

[Elessar Zappa]

46. That's quite a list!

[Dave Bowman]

28. I had no idea that this feature even existed.

Could be useful.

[Clouds Passing]

32. Me either

[chia]

40. I didn't think I had any words in there. Apparently I have one word, although I have no memory of putting it there:

Squeeeee

[Mosby]

43. I just checked

And saw that I trashed "trump" at some point. Don't remember why.

[Elessar Zappa]

44. Trump,

tsf, tfg, Donald, Elon, Musk, Eloon.
