just imagine intentionally putting yourself into a 1 year relationship.

Cultivating love and devotion in someone.

Just to hurt them by saying you never cared and break up.

I mean, it's an excellent plan and I have to applaud her patience but this is just straight up evil.

wow you made me feel bad for the bully.

"I only bullied you cause I didn't want you to get together with anyone else" is some real redneck tier fanfic material, but hell it'd be plausible compared to what other reasons people start dating ("you look hawt!"). This is probably that lardcake's only hope at love, given they're willing to waste 365 days of their life to be petty, and they throw it away?

Reddit will do that to you.

Edit: I find it funny how Reddit's reputation has shifted over the past few years. The meme used to be that Reddit was a right-wing cesspit, with some comically racist and misogynistic subreddits. What actually happened was that reddit banned or gutted all the "right-wing" subs, and only the left-wing spergs remain. Still a cesspit.

And yet they still believe reddit's a misogynistic hellscape because one redditor said something bad about a twitch thot. These types will find misogyny in everything so even if reddit is almost entirely left-wing they'll still find one or two lost right-wing redditors to bitch about.

$10 says she's also one of those people who claims to be baffled why incels and nice guys exist.

Customer leaves $1,300 tip to support Texas restaurant on day it reopened after coronavirus shutdown (cnn.com)


"Is this good news or is this horrific news? Can't tell."

"Horrific that clearly it’s not about economic hardship for re-open people eager to get back out, it’s about them missing their service culture to lick their wealthy boots. He’s celebrating jeopardizing human lives over a nice dinner, and mostly rewarding the restaurant owner for being willing to endanger their staff."

From what I can tell, the subreddits all seem to hate each other and many act like they're "above" other subreddits despite being no different from each other.

It's funny how much much ignorant BS Redditors spew out when they try to "correct" info or make it seem like they know something.

More like 1 in 20,000 and that’s the worst case scenario. Most cases of the coofs are asymptomatic or have mild symptoms, meaning most people don’t bother with getting tested or seeking out treatment. I’ve said this like 10,000 times but at this point it should be clear that the biggest fears concerning the rona are mostly bunk and we should keep the most vulnerable population safe from it all the while not crashing the economy. The quarantine was just a safety measure to make sure that hospitals aren’t being overrun and since they aren’t, we should go back to normal life ASAP so we don’t into too bad of a depression or avoid one completely. All these fucking redditors fucking fretting about a fucking mildly worse case of the flu is really just proof to me that boomers coddled their kids too much without teaching them any common sense.

This sounds like the plot of a stereotypical Shoujo Manga.

MC is a girl who dates her bully and tries to breakup with him so he can feel bad but like after 100 chapters she literally forgets about it.

I'm calling it fake but the poster might be a fujoshi herself and might try applying her logic to reality.
 
^I think that was the plot of Masamune Kun No Revenge. At least the whole having your bully/tormentor fall in love with you only to cruelly reject them plan is similar. And guess how that ended up for the main character and the bully?
They end up together in the end.
 
This may be too late for such a thread, but I had a discussion with a friend of mine that might shed some light on Reddit culture.

My friend andI have a mutual acquaintance (more of his friend, not mine) who is a moderator on a debate subreddit which typically touches on issues of religion and philosophy. As a moderator, he acts as the "fallacy police," most likely armed with a nifty chart of informal fallacies thought by those who never took a logic class to be iron clad rules. His time on this subreddit has led him to embrace New Atheism™ (he was formerly a Christian). Now his beliefs are more in line with a mid-2000's atheist middle schooler.

My friend and I were trying to figure out how this could have happened. He lives in a predominately conservative Christian area, so unlike Rhett & Link he has nothing to gain from taking such a position. If anything, he's become more alone, given that his family and in-laws - yes, he's married - are also conservative Christians. He hasn't been disowned or banished (quite the opposite), but he's more isolated than before, spending most of his free time with video games and Reddit. From what I've understood, he's always been a bit "heady" - I'm reluctant to say intelligent because I don't know him that well - and so he's drawn to intellectual-sounding topics. As I've discussed with my friend, we think that we may have found part of the reason for his "deconversion."

Reddit is structured in such a way to promote groupthink, with its system of karma and rewards that mean essentially nothing. You're encouraged to join the circlejerk so you can grow that sweet, sweet karma. Reddit also tends to attract pseudo-intellectual types. The mixture results in a deadly cocktail of group think among people with crippling Dunning-Kruger tendencies all jerking each other off and congratulating themselves with how smarter and above it all they are. As someone else mentioned, a lot of subreddits think that they are above the Reddit circlejerk, but in reality they are just as bad as everyone else on the site. While I am not saying that my acquaintance left his faith just because of Reddit, but I think it contributed to it. Reddit seems to be his "community" where he can receive validation for the intelligence that he thinks he has.

Anyway, that's that.

There is a good subreddit called r/averageredditor that tends to highlight to insane stupidity of this site. There's a trove of exceptional goodness there.
