I loved Reddit for what it is, but nothing made me back out of a post faster than seeing the top 3 parent threads as a regurgitation of the same inside jokes, pun-chains, and so on.

For me, that was part of the charm.

I could still find the information I needed when it was a serious query, and I could still find sound and sensitive viewpoints on many topics. But, opening a horrible post just to see a horribly distasteful comment as the first response just kept reminding me not to take life so seriously.

I'm fine with a horribly distasteful comment, but for the love of God make it a unique horribly distasteful comment.

Idk, I love comment chains like that. The funny comments, references or comment interactions are often the funniest thing about a post.

and nothing makes you feel part of something as finally getting an inside joke.

I love inside jokes. I'd love to be part of one someday.
