everybody on ilx complains about reddit

uh I think I just found something that's even worse than the cigarbox

unnnnnggghhhhunnnunngggghhhhh

turn back

it's weird how intertwined the ghastliest rotten.coms and gentry of internet culture are.
(the dude who made kickstarter is heavily part of the star wars kid story)

I'd be interested in hearing that - though one of the other co-founders was heavily part of ILX.

on the internet everyone is only two degrees from snuff porn merchant.

on the internet everyone is just the same one guy

Ah. Gizmodo is still mining Reddit for content while simultaneously disparaging Reddit. Well Played.

* permalink

the AMA with the "hello my future girlfriend" guy was great

basically any commenting system that doesnt display comments in chronological order from first to last makes absolutely no sense to me

It certainly is chronological, though, they just have a personal reply system in the threads.

threaded comments with up/down votes for visibility + a lil alien bro

doesnt it automatically sort them by "hotness" or something

ya i just looked and comments are default sorted by best, tho you can change that to top, new, hot, controversial, or old

i just want to put the skeevy shit on top, can you do that?

2nd most controversial comment in top thread

That might actually be one of mine - I had my corneas removed after watching an episode of Toddlers and Tiaras.
Alive and blind!

MY GOD

wonder what the difference between best top and hot is

and controversial

i think top is highest up:down vote ratio

hot is highest number of both up/down votes

controversial is highest number of votes closest to a 1:1 up/down ratio

i think

i think

its reddit, don't try too hard. clearly most of them don't.

HARSH

*pops zit in mirror, takes picture*

*upvotes furiously*

*sends .0000000000000002356 bitcoins in thanks*

*seasteads with proceeds*

haha holy shit i forgot about seasteading -- i interviewed a guy for the sealand doc who was all about it

haha yeah I think there was a separate thread about Reddit Island

maybe ask if there's an implicit grammar behind popping zits?

feel like chomsky is actually already a reddit person

some good questions on there!

(LINGUISTICS QUESITONS ONLY)

"precisely how do curious green ideas sleep furiously?"

joined roxy's seekrit reddit borad. now there are two!
I like reddit for nichey stuff. good Toronto community on there (my previous haunt, Toronto LJ, has become stagnant)
Nail polish and makeup communities. TV stuff. All useless goofy stuff like that, but entertaining when I am bored or want to pick apart Project Runway episodes.

<3

agreed re: niches. the one for my college is p worthwhile for lols

i posted something to our subreddit!!!!

what is your name on there, ffm?

im trying reddit and got the following error for trying to reply to two posts in a brief time:

you are doing that too much. try again in 8 minutes.

Spam protection

Cheap stimulation of Reddit may be making me stupid but at least it updates constantly. It's not like I'm already struggling with debilitating ADD or anything here. Help.

random livejournal pictures still best for ADD relief:
www.fuzzysquid.com/LJ.php
(could be NSFW, but mostly Russian)

Thanks!

Also are you saying I should just tell my boss "its OK, only Russian"

it's a crapshoot but i feel like 10% of traffic is NSFW, 70% is Russian. maybe some of which is both Russian and NSFW.
livejournal is weirdly popular in Russia.

Russia is a frightening place to me but makes for fascinating content if nothing else.

LJ is owned by a Russian company now, too.

I thought he got married!

exactly

roxy i am rednotdead :) I saw your post in /blur/ just after joining /ILX/ haha
