Did the Fluther developers provide us with any sort of Fluther "Raspberry"?

A user-to-user message where an answer was met with disdain?
Is there a polite way of saying, “Pluuuuth!” :-P

Fluther has matured, but years ago it was not unusual for some members to give a raspberry to others by posting a link that was just vile.
I think the moderators’ allowing of some pretty (ahem) direct profanity just about covers anything which a ‘Bronx cheer’ would…
Only in a passive-aggressive sort of way, where lurve is withheld near-universally from a reprehensible answer and awarded copiously to the following derisive reply. An example can be seen with the fourth and eighth posts on this thread.
Holy crap…..2008.
I was so young then….
Thanks, all. I think ‘Pfffft’ pretty well covers it. Thanks @chyna! :)
Sorry, I have to disagree. I think that @Haleth has come as close as I’ve ever seen anywhere, and should copyright “ppppppbbbbbttt”
( That’s my story, and I’m stickin’ to it…)
I was just counting Pfffft as a more accurate ‘Pshaw’, the traditional, but pppbbbttt is actually equally as good. :) @OneBadApple)
No. Not as good. Better.
“Pfffft” is more in the “you don’t know what you’re talking about” family of noises…
You can call it off in Kansas (or wherever-the-fuck) if you want, but I am staying on this until @Haleth is given some kind of award. A plaque, or a phone call from Obama or something…
