It is so old and unfunny. The people that use it weren't even around when it was original and fresh. It provides an annoying way to tell someone something has already been posted, an act which is annoying in itself.

Is this the airing of grievances? I'm sick and fricking tired of the ____ stacked _____ fricked deal.

it seems the later the join date, the higher the chances of a "germans" response...i guess it makes them feel like a good ole' boy

The only way it will happen is if the admins start banning people for it.

Here's the deal: Germans doesn't even make sense in context.

Posters cite the source of "germans" from animal house where The "Germans bombed Pearl Harbor."


So that means that "germans" means misinformation, not repeated information.

You should use THAT as a plat for to rid it from here, not your feelings. You have to approach it objectively, then win the crowd over with your personal take.

Hope that helps, doubt you read it all.

Germans as an insulting and stigmatizing word is old and unfunny, but it has become a useful word.

So I actually stopped and read your post and it seems to me that you are getting pissed off about someone telling someone that what they are posting is old news.

That's pretty much it, plain and simple. It's not supposed to be funny anymore, its meant to be a short and to the point way of saying "Hey dumbshit, if you knew how to use the godamn search function you would know that so and so just posted that earlier today/2 weeks ago. God you fail at life" but consolidating it down to just "Germans".

Do you hate efficiency in other parts of life or just internet message board posts?
