I think you have forgotten one very important point about communities like Hacker News: Those who know teach those who do not.
I appreciate your annoyance. However, even gratuitous repetition of so-called catch phrases is useful in that it gives newcomers a view into how the community things about things and uses the language of this rarified niche.
Please be tolerant.
