What is your silly MFP pet peeve?

Mine is when people send FR with no message. My profile clearly states why I don't accept FR unless you include a message so I find it very frustrating when people don't take the time to read your profile before hitting that "add friend" button. I think it validates my feelings on the included message with FR...

    I agree. Mine says that too so it doesn't make me feel the least bit bad about not accepting if they don't write anything.

    Mine is a little more about the site than people. It drives me crazy that you can't "copy to meal" like copy what you had for lunch to your dinner on the same day!

    Broscience, by the same posters, over and over again, who never bother to read the well thought out replies to their idiotic advice. They just go on and on in their broscientifical haze, sorta like bro-fitness-zombies. And I get really really tired of trying to calmly and politely correct their advice.

    Imma gonna get me a gun. :grumble:

    There is a trick for that (at least in the Android).

    You select the meal and "copy to date" that way you will have duplicates of everything. Then you choose the duplicates and "Move to ..." and select the meal you want to move it to.

    When you click "add food" change from Dinner to All Meals and click the Recent tab. You will see what you entered for lunch at the top if lunch was the last thing you entered.

    Or, go to Quick Tools and Remember Meal. It doesn't combine them all like a recipe, but you can save the individual elements as an easily added meal.

    These are both options using the computer. I don't know how the app may differ.

    in the bang, lick, hug, pass threads when a dude posts one minute after you about a chick who posted before you.. basically skipping you. There is an unwritten bro- etiquette to wait at least 2 minutes before skipping your fellow bro.

    How there is no "read" function in the forums -- so when you click on a thread you have to go either to the very beginning or the very end, not to the last post you read. Unless there's a way to do that and I haven't figured it out yet.

    thatd be me. as far as not logging daily anyways.
    but for me- ive gotten very overwhelmed lately. with 3 kids, trying to revamp their diets as well as mine. a teething baby, remembering to work out, log food...it just doesnt always happen. and i get frustrated and down.
    so right now im trying to focus on slow changed. right now im making healthier eating choices, and working out daily. soon ill add in the logging of food. but if i get too overwhelmed i tend to say f it and give up.

    Self-centered people :laugh: I get that you want to know what you look like from 1 to 10 but stop commenting every second so that someone else will rate you :wink:. I do get that you're here to be fit and all but some people just talk about themselves too much and show off. That's just my opinion though HAHA

    I have so so many.
    1) asking what counts as water? Mfp making people worry about water intake.
    2) saying "I'm no expert but..." And then saying silly stuff.
    3) saying "yeah but you're no expert, where are your peer reviewed studies to reinforce your point?"
    4) all the talk about women and lifting and not getting bulky!!! *yawn!*
    5) people who ONLY want to flirt.
    6) ten people attacking one incorrect comment on a thread.
    7) people who use any excuse to display their latest pics or videos of lifts shamelessly trying to draw attention away from the subject and on them.
    8) "I've been doing this for a week and it doesn't work"
    9) slagging spouses and other family members.
    10) asking for advice so they can argue against every piece of advice they receive
    And that's just the beginning but OK I'll stop....

    I don't know...sometimes the ellipses get excessive......but sometimes they add to the meaning of the message.............

    Which is normally crap anyway..................................

    Wow! You've been around for less than a month and already seen all/most of the bad side of MFP. Hope you've had some good experiences too! :flowerforyou:

    ^^^ this, and nothing to find your own posts either. So if someone bumps an old thread with a lot of pages, and you can't remember what you wrote in it (but you know you must have written something because it's on your "my topics" page), you have to go through the whole thread to find out what you posted....
