The history of FSTDT is a surprisingly simple one. The initial administrator, WinAce, found religious stupidity humorous, so he decided to set up an archive for the craziest of the crazies. He called it Christians Say the Darndest Things, but quickly changed it when he realized that Christian fundamentalists aren't the only people capable of saying outrageous things. Unfortunately, three years after the initial creation of the site, WinAce [[Author Existence Failure|passed away from cystic fibrosis]].
However, this wasn't the end of FSTDT as a new administrator, Yahweh (who saw fundies in much the same way as WinAce), picked up where the first left off, both in the memory of WinAce and as a project to improve her coding skills. However, Yahweh found the task of rebuilding and recompiling the website to be far more difficult than she initially expected and ended up abandoning the project after a valiant effort.
The third
Shy, the fourth administrator, managed the site with great efficiency, but because of burnout and manic depression, in 2019 he recruited Pryo as webmaster, who helped the site by moving to a better hosting service. As of 2020, they both still manage the site, along with a team of moderators. keeping material that goes back to the earliests incarnations of the site
At first glance, the site seems to mock conservative Christians exclusively, but it only seems that way because they tend to be [[Vocal Minority|the loudest]] (in English-speaking countries, anyway). Stupidity of any religious or political persuasion is fair game and the site's history has had a respectable number of quotes from antitheists, liberals and other non-conservative and non-Christian fundies.▼

* [[Cluster F-Bomb]]: [http://fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=70373 Sometimes].

** The commenters have a version of this as well. Whenever an American fundie is quoted, a small subset (mostly Headache) of the non-American commenters will blame the USA as a whole for the existence of its fundies, but this ''never'' happens when the fundie quoted is from elsewhere, and if an American tries to claim such, the other commenters show him no mercy.

* [[Dude, She's Like, in a Coma]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20151010045531/http://www.fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=58637 This quote] seems to suggest this trope.
* [[Dumbass Has a Point]]: Sometimes (albeit very occasionally) the fundies quoted also say something reasonable in their rant, which is usually acknowledged by at least one commenter.
* [[Eagle Land]]: The American fundies are [[Sarcasm Mode|shining]] examples of Flavor 2 (not to say that other countries don't have their own fundies). Unfortunately, because the USA is so much more populated than the rest of the English-speaking world outside of Asia,<ref>The USA has one-quarter of the population of India, where English is also spoken as a third language.</ref> a naïve commenter could easily assume that all Americans are like that even though that is not the case. In fact, [[Single-Issue Wonk|Headache]], if he isn't a [[Troll]], seems to believe this, as the vast majority of his comments are about how the United States is "the land of the fat and the stupid" and how the American people deserve their country to be ruined because a minority of them vote for fundie candidates.
* [[Eats Babies]]: Apparently, [[Blatant Lies|because atheists have no morals]], logically they find eating babies [
* [[Enemy Civil War]]: When one religious nut criticizes another religious nut, expect a commenter to declare "FUNDIE FIGHT!"

* [[Evil Counterpart]]: FSTDT and Rapture Ready sometimes act like this to each other.
* [[Feeling Oppressed by Their Existence]]: Many quoted fundies feel this way towards gays, atheists, and basically anyone not like them.

** One commenter came up with "Chronic-Oppressive Reality-Disconnect Syndrome", or '''CORDS''', because [[Don't Explain the Joke|fundies want to bind everyone to atavistic "cords" of behavior]].

* [[Halfbreed]]: One of the fundies' many [[Acceptable Targets]].
* [[He Who Fights Monsters]]:
** The users of the site sometimes display bigotry, double standards, research failures and the like despite ([[Troll|or because]]) the site is devoted to mocking those very qualities.
** However, a lot of posts are written in [[Sarcasm Failure|sarcasm]], and some of the more bigoted replies are often [[Poe's Law|Poes]].
** For example, some of the comments in response to the commenters whatever and SpukiKitty in [http://fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=81147 this thread].
** Trolls and fundies posting to try and call out quote posters notwithstanding, there are 28 pages of quotes from the search word "FSTDT".
* [[Hitler Ate Sugar]]: Far too often. Running a search of the name "Hitler" yields 49 ''pages'' of results as of this edit, some of them comparing him to [[Barack Obama]].
** [https://web.archive.org/web/20140208175312/http://www.fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=87268 This] is one of the most obvious examples (though it doesn't concern Hitler himself).
* [[Hollywood Evolution]]: Oh, so very much. A huge proportion of people ranting about the "EVILutionists" have no idea how the Theory of Natural Selection works... especially whoever came up with [https://web.archive.org/web/20130825044015/http://fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=60638 these].
* [[Hollywood Psych]]
* [[I'm a Humanitarian]]: According to one fundie, [http://fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=69008 cannibalism is atheist doctrine].
* [[Implied Death Threat]]: The fundie Mark Dreher makes one to the commenter D Laurier [https://web.archive.org/web/20150921204402/http://www.fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=81890 here]. For context, an earlier quote submitted to the site established that Dreher [[A God Am I|believes himself to be God]], so when he claims that God would kill a person, ''he is thinking about doing so himself''.

* [[I Reject Your Reality]]
* [[It Is Pronounced "Tro-PAY"]]: [[Inverted]]. Wiley thinks that "''raison d'être''" is pronounced "raisin date", and ''actually spells it that way''. [
* [[It's All About Me]]: Many fundies seem to believe this, even though one would think that they would not because their religion teaches otherwise.

* [[Jerk Justifications]]: [

* [[Maligned Mixed Marriage]]:
** At least one person on the site provides an excellent example the maligning when he says there is no love whatsoever in any of them.

* [[Quote Mine]]: Quite a sizeable chunk of the site.
Line 168 ⟶ 172:
* [[Readings Blew Up the Scale]]: A common response to an ironic statement made by one of the fundies whose statements have been quoted is that it has "destroyed [the commenter's] irony meter."
* [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]: Some of the commenters are great at pulling this off. Others... not so much.
** [[Otaku|Anon-e-moose]] has gained such a reputation for doing this (especially to fundies who hate [[Anime]] or [[Manga]]) that [https://web.archive.org/web/20151007054634/http://www.fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=83711&Page=1 other commenters started getting worried when, three pages in, he hadn't responded to this.]
* [[Red Scare]]: Some of the fundamentalists on the site seem to think everything is a communist conspiracy. [
* [[Rogues Gallery]]: There are a few who have a lot of quotes on the site.
** Some of the most notable fundies on the site are AV1611VET, dad, JohnR7, Supersport, Carico, LoneWolf1984, DoctorDoom, Bro. Randy, savagesusie, [[Conservapedia|Andrew Schlafly]] and [[He-Man Woman Hater|fschmidt]].
** A commenter came up with another list, including fundies who are just plain evil, rather than stupid. The only names in common with the above list are DoctorDoom and fschmidt. The others are [[Evil Reactionary|Proph]], [[I'm a Man, I Can't Help It|Feynman and Coulter's Love Child]], [[Nazi Grandpa|alanorei]], [[Those Wacky Nazis|Hunter Wallace]], [[Abusive Parents|Ronald E. Williams]], [[
* [[Rouge Angles of Satin]]:
** There are several examples, but [
** Also, [https://web.archive.org/web/20140913103648/http://www.fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=71901 this one] actually makes one of the trope naming errors.

** [https://web.archive.org/web/20120608062257/http://www.fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=84644 DoctorDoom] asked why criticism of Barack Obama is perceived as racist, and immediately followed by calling him a "Magic Lawn Jockey". You were saying, Doom?
* [[Serial Escalation]]: "[[What an Idiot!]], no one could possibly get more stupid than... [[Oh Crap]], they just did."
** An excellent example is Cassiterides, who seems hell-bent on denying [[Science Is Wrong|every scientific theory in existence]]. He apparently believes that [https://web.archive.org/web/20120608061335/http://www.fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=76077 the sun is only 32 miles in diameter], [
** Supersport is also notable in this regard. In his quest to deny modern science he has claimed that [https://web.archive.org/web/20151007070213/http://www.fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=23311 wild animals don't get sick], [https://web.archive.org/web/20151007070443/http://www.fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=22575 that smallpox vaccinations might actually cause smallpox], [[Somewhere a Paleontologist Is Crying|that the fossil record disproves evolution]] [https://web.archive.org/web/20151007003421/http://www.fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=31398 because we don't find fossils of animals with eyes on their feet], that he can explain why [[You Fail Geology Forever|fossils of larger animals are always found in the "higher stratas" [sic] of the geologic column]] [https://web.archive.org/web/20151007054856/http://www.fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=31265 because he once shook a can of mixed nuts and the larger nuts ended up on top], [https://web.archive.org/web/20151007055050/http://www.fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=21998 that bacteria developing immunity to antibiotics is an example of Lamarckian Evolution], that if you get a tan your offspring [https://web.archive.org/web/20150904025854/http://www.fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=63204 will have darker skin than you], [[Artistic License Physics|that E=mc2 is wrong]] [https://web.archive.org/web/20151007055008/http://www.fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=28277 because it contradicts Newton's Law of gravity], [https://web.archive.org/web/20130905131243/http://www.fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=30247 that we can't assume light travels to us instead of our eyes traveling to it], [[Artistic License Physics|that the actions of molecules]] [
*** The two are so unbelievably stupid that some have suggested that ''Cassiterides is Supersport's kid'', hoping that there is no way that two people so stupid could exist independently of one another.
** A new contender to the title of "dumbest person on the Internet" is Self-Mutation. He has made such stupid statements as that [https://web.archive.org/web/20130905134157/http://www.fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=83091 a crucifix will not shake during an earthquake] (because [[You Fail Geology Forever|earthquakes are caused by the devil]]), that [
* [[Single-Issue Wonk]]:
** Several, but one who comes to mind is baileysmom from Rapture Ready, whose posts are ''always'' rants against gay people. She even derails [[Left Fielder|completely unrelated threads]] to take a swipe at them.
*** This became so common that at least one commenter has decided to post using that name, [[Troll|celebrating]] [[Parental Incest|the (fabricated) child abuse of the eponymous Bailey]].
** A more recent example is Headache, who is a commenter on FSTDT. Inevitably, when an American fundie is quoted, he ''will'' rant about how the United States of America sucks and how the American people are stupid and have no hope of ever matching the rest of the world in intelligence. He is quite fond of calling the US "batshit insane". True to this trope, he never talks about anything else with the vitriol that he reserves for Americans, and non-American fundies who are just as stupid or [[Hanlon's Razor|evil]] as any of the American ones tend to get little or no reaction from him.
* [[Stay in the Kitchen]]: One of them even [https://web.archive.org/web/20130905142321/http://www.fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=87333 wrote a poem] about how women should stay in the kitchen.
* [[Stop Being Stereotypical]]: Some of the site's fanbase are Christians who are tired of the fundies' shit.
* [[Stupid Sexy Flanders]]: Heterosexual variant: quite a few of the commenters are ashamed of themselves for considering Christine O'Donnell, and occasionally Sarah Palin, to be sexually attractive, when those women have made some of the most ignorant comments on the entire site.
* [[Tempting Fate]]:

* [[Trope Overdosed]]: It's surprising how many tropes there are in what is little more than a collection of unconnected quotations.
* [[Two Words: Obvious Trope]]: [http://fstdt.com/QuoteComment.aspx?QID=16695 "I can sum it all up in three words: Evolution is a lie."]
* [[What Do You Mean It's Not Heinous?]]: Most of the quotes are pure Type 1.
