This sub makes it hard to communicate elsewhere online
55 2016-04-09 by MandrakesLeg
Usually it's when I'm somewhere else on reddit. I'll think of a brilliant insult that I find rather tame, but then I'll think about it a moment and realize the people in /r/personalfinance probably wouldn't react too well to a prolapsed anus reference. This sub is making me institutionalized. I can't function anywhere else.

If anything it's made my tolerance for the Internet and what people find funny extremely low. I'm at the point where if someone shares a meme on anything I tell them that I hope their parents die
23 TakesTheWrongSideGuy 2016-04-09
It's made my life at work very hard. I got to uphold a professional demeanor most of the day. It's extremely hard to talk to people and not insult them especially when you work with some idiots. The worst is when one of these assholes finds a meme, or shitty youtube prank that they gotta show me and I have to entertain them by fake laughing and acting like it's funny when it's not. I feel like Anthony in those moments. Yuck. Opie and Anthony ruined me as a person and what I find funny. It takes a lot to actually make me laugh out loud.

A guy at work tried to tell me about "this hilarious radio show where they tricked a guy into buying flowers for his side chick! But his girlfriend was listening!"
I tried explaining that it's fake. Never do that. It's better to smile benignly and nod. They'll never understand.
15 destinyaltboy 2016-04-09
I've been there too. Even listened to it with them and pointed out the spots where it didn't make sense. Didn't matter. I came off looking like a fun ruining dick.

Don't claim it's fake. Just cite section 73.1206 of the FCC rules

I explained to my kid the other day that the people calling in to the Pop station were pre-taped, and were just dropped in to sound like they were calling live to make requests. There was also a Prepburger like contest that they advertised, and I had to pop that bubble too. I don't care if she likes shitty pop music, but I'll be damned if I'll let her fall for a prepburger bit.

I know what you mean. There's nothing worse than a fake water cooler laugh. Nothing. Get outta here with your dumb Evoltion of Dance 2013 video, you moron.
5 rottenseed 2016-04-09
The best thing to do in the work situation is to turn regular Joe on them and say "you can watch your internet movies, but I'm here to get a good days work in."

Big subs are so faggy sometimes. I saw some shit about the most difficult decisions you've made in a computer game, people talking about taking days to recover from killing somebody in a game, fucking cringey.
58 DisgustingFaggot 2016-04-09
I love video games, but I hate self-proclaimed "gamers" who actually say things like how they've lived so many lives and been on so many adventures. It's a game you stupid faggot.
23 rottenseed 2016-04-09
"It's a game, you stupid faggot" should be on a shirt and sold at all Game Stops
3 WiretapStudios 2016-04-09
Sold? They should make the employees wear it, I'm sure
somemost of them are autists, but for the legit semi-normal person that works there, I can't IMAGINE what it's like to talk to the customers.3 RearNakedGrope 2016-04-09
The guy at Gamestop always tries to spark up conversations with me when I go there to sell old games. He'll ask me what type of games I like so he can recommend something to me. I only like GTA, fuck Witcher 3. To be fair, I'm probably the odd one in this situation
37 clickclack8 2016-04-09
Big reddit subs are the worst things on the internet. Looking at the front page when you're logged out makes me physically ill. It's unbelievable how much amusement these sheltered retards get out of intensely mundane garbage.
28 Slippery_Slope_Guy 2016-04-09
Check out this awesome zelda costume I knitted for my girlfriend's son!
21 nomorecompromise 2016-04-09
hahaha So true. Like, "We hope your girlfriend's son is burned alive in a vat of acid" amiright guyz? LOL
Yeah, the fake do-gooder wholesomeness of most online communities is a creativity-vacuum. The majority of reddit is adults patting themselves on the back for "being good people".
10 dejavu4thedead 2016-04-09
I worry that the only things considered "funny" in the future will be recycled memespeak, pop culture-crossovers and cat pictures. Not a single original joke to be found.
6 rottenseed 2016-04-09
The problem is a lot of people really do think like this. They're do-goodness and patting themselves on the back make this vicious cycle. Trying to navigate the world when you're jaded like many in this sub is difficult if you don't know how to fake being a total faggot.
5 Viking_Lordbeast 2016-04-09
I get a little annoyed when someone tells a sad story and the next comment immediately is "I hope everything is better in life for you now/I'm so sorry you went through that."
Maybe I'm being overly cynical, but those comments never feel genuine. They're complete strangers. For all the guy knows, he could be saying that to a serial baby rapist.
1 dooogie 2016-04-09
You're so right. Those comments always seem to be insincere and bursting at the seams with faggotry. I just imagine some smug asshole hitting send and feeling like he made a difference when he didn't actually accomplish anything. It's the same with internet activism in general.
15 [deleted] 2016-04-09
I hate when subs have a [serious] tag on threads. It's like "why"? Who are you protecting when I can't make a joke? If it's about someone dying then they say "have some respect". What, like the family members want Reddit's take on their brother's/friend's/daughter's death.
12 Chris_Benoit_Daycare 2016-04-09
It's not so much protecting from your joke. These retarded redditors come into every thread with the same jokes and puns. I'm glad there are serious tags because I've had so many accounts banned for wishing things like a stillborn child on people or their parent to succumb to a degenerative bone disease.
6 [deleted] 2016-04-09

6 WiretapStudios 2016-04-09
I agree, I don't go into a NASA thread to see goddamn Bohemian Rhapsody pun threads, I want to see what the fuck the thing is that was posted about, explained by a teacher or scientist so I can understand it. Nothing makes me happier than seeing those [deleted] minefields in space / history threads.
4 CowsAreCurious 2016-04-09
There have been so many times I've just said fuck it when I actually see an interesting question in /r/AskReddit but they forgot the [serious] tag so you never get an answer only a million awful puns from these unfunny cocksuckers.
1 Chris_Benoit_Daycare 2016-04-09
Do those people still get karma? It would make me so hard if not only did they get no karma for the comment, but they lost karma for being a loser.

2 americanmook 2016-04-09
that is the worst part. I fucking love serious tag, it means i dont have to scroll halfway down the page past all the fucking shitty faggoty puns and get to the real posts.
3 dejavu4thedead 2016-04-09
Exactly. They should be too busy mourning to go on Reddit.
9 youdonotnome 2016-04-09
All of default Reddit is faggotry now
It's all fuzzy animal gifs and idiotic feminist opinion pieces
Browsing the front page when I'm not logged in is kind of worrying really

This sub is to posting what jerking off to porn is to sex. We get to be as brutal as we can here because its accepted then we can't function in normal situations. In your case, posting in /r/personalfinance is like trying to get 19-year-old virgin to fuck you with a black dildo and call you cuck faggot.
7 TriangleDimes 2016-04-09
The problem being that if you jerk off to heinous porn too often it starts leaking into your sex with civilians

12 andycumiashow 2016-04-09
If you look at the top non-political post every day on /all you'll notice that the highest rated comment is always something that would come out of Chip's mouth.

2 Viking_Lordbeast 2016-04-09
I usually do it to myself. If I say something funny (to me) and it gets nothing I'll say something like "wow, that was stupid", but then sometimes people get uncomfortable with that and condescendingly go "Noooo! It was funny! I just didn't hear it too well!" like they think I'm going to go home and kill myself because my stupid joke bombed.
