People paying American dollars to let other people know they didn't agree with someone's position on something is the lifeblood of these forums.
"How game taught me how to be a better x" articles are also in the running for biggest waste of megabytes.

Man if letting my other half die in coop games was a relationship ruiner we never would have lasted 4 years. She would have given up a month in when we were playing a game and not only did I not save her I was the direct reason she died.

My partner and I joke a lot about letting each other die in Diablo and how we're done because of that. That article is so, so bad.

In the Wii mario game I pushed my girlfriend off a ledge on purpose, we had other problems later that ended our relationship, but I'm pretty sure that was the beginning of the end.

Yeah there's some physicists and astrophysicists I follow on Twitter that have their own personal little stalker who is like "You're wrong because (Timecube-level reasoning)" on every single one of their posts. Like, they'll post a picture of their cat sitting in the sun, and their own personal crank will post some ridiculous theory.

China's proposed social credit system, could it possibly be used for terrifying poo poo like silencing government criticism? No, it's PC gone mad according to imgur!


(one could hope that in this case "political correctness" is used to mean (forced) compliance with government politics but knowing imgur this is very unlikely)

Bonus points for calling it "utopian".
