Thought of something fun the other day. While putting away groceries in the fridge, I realized that having a nubbin or something on the bottom of the refrigerator door would be massively helpful, allowing me to manipulate the door with my foot while I have full arms/hands.
So I went to reddit 'showerthoughts', which I thought was an appropriate venue for the idea, posted aaaaaaand immediately deleted. Mod said "read the rules," and -no joke- it was like 5 pages of bullshit, wrapped in bullshit with bullshit bullet points. And despite reading it carefully, nowhere did I find the supposed rule I violated which was "to reply to your own post in the comments."
Bro, fuck your website, fuck your rules, and fuck you.
I remember getting inspired by the "Polandball" comics, so I drew one myself. Even followed all the stylistic rules laid out on the sub and everything. But instead of just being allowed to post it you have to submit it to a mod first. And the mod rejected it because he didn't get the joke. So explained the joke to them but they still thought it didn't make sense, so I didn't get a licence to post in the end.
I understand that there are rules for the kind of stuff you want to allow but come on man...
I made a polandball, submitted to the mod, and was told the joke was overused so rejected.
It was in the vein all the other jokes currently were, hence why I went with it.
It's a shame they're so gatekeepy. I found them quite fun in the past but since my experience trying to contribute unsubbed and never looked again. Fuck them
We could start our own polandball here! With blackjack! And hookers!
Reddit is in the end stages of an online forum. It's too big to be good now. That's why we are here. It's way better
