Better "searching ..." (Meta)

Why Is This Idea Important?: Bad money drives out good. Works that way with brainstorming too. It gets tedious to scroll through hundreds of "He was Born in Birthistan" rants. As a result, I've lost interest in participating.

I'd like to be able to create a search string that will return the various category results minus the annoying and repetitive stuff.

For example, all posts that contain "birth" or "birth certificate" would be ignored (the results could say 'we have ignored the following:' at the bottom of the list, in case there's an inadvertent exclusion.)

I'm sorry that there are so many folks who don't understand the purpose of a site like this ... even CompuServe, many eons ago, had a way to set an ignore flag and ignore threads that were of no interest.

    Are you kidding? Of no interest? One of THE MOST important issues of the new presidency being legal or not?

    Regardless of which side of the argument you may stand on......this is HARDLY an unimportant issue with "no interest".

    How utterly ignorant that comment was!!!!!
