why is it whenever theres a popular post on reddit, it doesnt matter the context, there's always a shitload of "wholesome" reacts
like even if the post is "two hundred dead in horrific airline accident" there'll be a bunch of wholesome reacts
i'd get it if they were free, but they cost money lmao

Wholesome is one of the free awards that Reddit occasionally gives out to users to award, which explains why it shows up in weird places

Having a 16 year old handle all your enterprise resource planning is a bad idea as contracts signed by minors aren't legally binding in the same way they are for adults, at least in US law.
Maybe it's different in the UK

I saw the full post on this one, OP claims to be the 16 year old. Honestly assuming they're not lying about ages this seems pretty normal? Horny teens are going to have sex through whatever means they can and the only "weird" thing here is deciding to seek legal advice from reddit about it

Same for me, but with CBT.

I've considered asking my therapist if she's seen those memes, as she does sex-related therapy, too. I imagine nothing surprises her.

You’re telling me there was an entire group of hateful lonely guys who hated women (and probably everyone else), on Reddit??!!! I can’t believe it :monocle:

The veil was pretty much see through on mgtow. They advertised as a place for men to discuss mens issues, which invariably means sexual strategy/redpill bullshit.

"Im comfortable being single", generally spiraled into "women are irrational worthless hamsters that need to be dominated and im sick of playing the game after my divorce, who else wants to talk about how much better we are without women".

You know cool poo poo like that.

They usually only ban subreddits like this when the media points out a murderous chud was a user of that subreddit before they did something horrible so it's not super excellent.

The theory I saw in /r/subredditdrama implied that it could have been the guy who recently got caught planning to shoot up a sorority was found to be a MGTOW user.

Or maybe the Reddit admins discovered empathy and reason lol idk

today my art director had me change a design that had a couple of tiny vinyl albums as part of it. apparently king crimson and pink floyd are big mock targets on some reddit vinyl circlejerk subreddit, so he had me swap em out. butthole surfers and funkadelic i replaced with are better anyway so I don't care but it cracked me up that reddit was the reason for changing this local bookstore's design lol, not the clients or anything.

I don't but that sounds like something that would happen. Just gonna assume the other 10% were asking him what his favorite funko-pops are or just them posting pictures of funky-pops.

There's a ton of users like that and they all have millions of karma from reposting poo poo constantly. The most "famous" of them was GallowBoob, who has tens of millions of karma and regularly got caught (by users, admins do not give a gently caress) doing poo poo like deleting quickly rising posts then reposting them himself, and deleting comments criticizing him. He finally got mostly run off of reddit after an obvious sponsored post that was just the Netflix logo posted to r/oddlysatisfying or another one of those asinine subs that all overlap. Now he just posts on reddit once in a while and mostly just reposts stuff on Twitter.

Whenever I feel masochistic enough to browse r/all I use the browser add on that lets you tag users to tag anyone I notice with millions of karma. It's interesting what a huge proportion of r/all during prime time (mid to late afternoon in America) is posted by these power users - I've seen as much as 75% of the first page be by users I've tagged.

Any reddit quote from a TV series is usually from the first couple of episodes. When I started watching Arrested Development way back when I was kind of surprised to find all of the commonly repeated reddit catch phrases are within the first two episodes. Same with Futurama. I wouldn't be surprised if most of the people repeating them haven't even seen the show and are just repeating what they see others post.
