1) give the OP an answer they didn't want to hear.
2) request peer-reviewed research instead of personal anecdotes as justification for a statement.
3) use logic in your arguments.
4) be skeptical about unfounded claims and assertions (also known as "The Shakeology Rule").
5) post funny gifs.

do any or all of these things and you will quickly be called "mean & rude". when it happens, wear it like a badge of honor...

...or not.

    in the interest of helping newbs join this elite status, here are 5 gifs that you can use on almost any thread...

    a) in response to unfounded fears (usually about food):

    b) in response to something demonstrably false:

    c) in response to something you can't quite believe anyone believes, much less would post:

    d) in response to a thread which you know is going to crash and burn shortly:

    e) in response to terrible advice:
