I joined the reddit Melbourne dt because it looked fun. Sometimes I comment sometimes I don't. Then I read comments that are snarky and bitter and I think for a brief moment are you a cunt irl? Anyway love you guys ♥ (I am sober by the way. For the time being. Not afraid to show my feels).
Did you see the comments yesterday from the guy bragging about making a 3D printed gun and shooting a 100 rounds into Silvan Reservoir? He's a cunt IRL for sure
I did indeed and I had no words for that.
Total dick. Can’t stand people like him.
The people that wanted to be social came here, the people that wanted to sook stayed there.
That's true. This shit about "it's actually a random discussion now". Huh. Enjoy your 45 comments people.
The melbourne sub is a shadow of it's former self. Way too many grumpy fucks.
There's a handful of gatekeeping smug smartarses on there that stand out like dog's balls now that we're gone. Oh but apparently we'll be back. Yeah nah fuck you. Bathe in your own shit if you like.
Tailgaters and slow people in the right lane amiright?
Yeah. Kings and queens of their own lounge room.
We'll be back? It's been months jeez they're clingy
Yeah. Today it was "unfortunately they're coming back" fuck off dip shit. I'm done.
If you haven't already, check out mythic quest - specifically the ep Dinner Party
That's how i'm envisioning reddit trolls lol
I'll do that. Thanks
Aaaah, I don't think I will though, alright?
I don't think I will either after today.
My work computer had Lemmy blocked until today, so I found it hard to come on here during those moments where I needed a mental break from work. The DT feels like it's maybe 10% what it used to be and 90% people asking questions into the void. I miss it all being in one neat place, but given Reddit's slide towards (more) questionable content, I guess I'll just use this place as my dose of social media and leave it at that?
Oh look I get it. I never left but when the same question comes up "where is everybody?" you have cunts with smartarse answers and yet you can answer in the most mature way. I always upvote you.
Ugh, you're so right. And like, if that's what's left of Reddit then it's just going to turn into yet another Twitter alternative. That kind of response flies in the face of what the DT was, as well. So annoying. We used to be there to downvote that type of rhetoric but I guess without the positive community vibe to set the mood the rats are just going to scamper about.
Hahaha. That's spot on. I just can't do cunty behaviour. I just can't.
Some people call it "lurking" I call it "observing". Nothing wrong with that. Some people though have a problem with that.
It's that whole thing of "If you have nothing nice to say, then say nothing at all" - but for whatever reason the internet has missed that lesson. And yeah, the post-Covid world is really out of fucks to give when it comest to cunty behaviour.
I prefer the saying "keep it civil or fuck off".
Hey CEO. Your trousers are awkwardly short. Suckerrr
