It doesn't make you seem clever. It doesn't make you sound smart. It doesn't make you sound funny. It only makes you look like a giant tool.
Seriously, every time I see someone type M$ seriously I lose every ounce of respect for them and I cannot take anything they say seriously. Saying M$ in any argument is pretty much an automatic lose card and you fail at life.

Unwilling irony ensues from your own rant being peppered with subcultural jargon, that is also seldom as funny or clever as its now accustomed speakers think ;)
|
I was going to make a witty comeback and explain how you missed the point of the first post, but then I realized you would probably miss the point of that too.
|
I'm pretty $ure no comeback would have been witty enough to obfu$cate the fact that WereKitten kicked your rhetorical a$$.
A$ in, he threw a deve$tating, life-stopping heart punch $traight into the middle of your argument.
"Fail" gets on my nerves way more than M$, and I've seen you reply to thread$ (especially back when the fail meme was all the rage) with nerve-grating fail pic$ quite a few time$.

Ah, so you missed it too!
I didn't make a thread about being annoyed by people who use subcultural jargon, I made a thread about being annoyed by people who use the term M$ because they don't know what it actually means (and apparently even I didn't even know where it started) and they think it makes them clever.
I don't give a crap if people use things like fail (or even phail, which would be more appropriate to point out) or other random jargon. When someone says fail they aren't trying to stick it to Microsoft and sound all sorts of clever because they're almost being political or whatever, they're just being tools (and tool is as much as subcultural jargon as idiot).

I didn't bold tool, I didn't coin use the phrase subcultural jargon.
We didn't 'miss' anything.
WereKitten pointed out that while complaining a stupid internet meme (for whatever reasons, they don't really matter here), you used a few much-more annoying and more widespread memes that, if not exactly the same as M$, are at least in the same genus. It still really undermines your argument.
Analogy for dense people: A man complains how he hates those dumb t-shirts with wry quips on them, because the people who wear them aren't even witty enough to get them and they're just stupid. Meanwhile, he is wearing a hat and t-shirt that both also have stupid quotes. Even if his reasons for hating other people wearing said shirts doesn't derive from their inherent inanity, he still looks like a toolbag.
Also, starting sentences with "Ah", even facetiously, ironically, or sarcastically, gives off a strong "I'm a jackass" vibe. Jus' sayin'.
M$ annoys me too, but self-indulgent rants about minutial problems annoy me a lot more.
Okay, I'm all argued out. Don't take me too seriously, I just like to argue stupid stuff with the people for the sake of exercising my vocabularly and debatin' skills if nothing else. Think of this as more a simulated exercise than my true sentiments.
