everybody on ilx complains about reddit

relationships.txt Twitter account does a fine job of curating

That was sadder than I expected.

r/aww is great for cheering you up, has all the pics of cute pets one could ever need.

dildo thread was poignant

r/wholesomememes also good cheer.

r/aww is hilarious for all the people who lose their shit over reposts, reddit points are serious business

lol yeah I see that a lot on r/niceguys. but tbf theres a couple of memes that honestly do get reposted almost every day. Reddit is a fecking huge audience.

TIFU by admitting to my girlfriend that I pretend she is a giant cockroach when we have sex.

idk, feel like that's not likely to make a top five of most fucked up fetishes i read about on the internet this week. Almost vanilla.

TIFU by waking up as a giant cockroach

TIFU by showing off a new machine for punishing condemned criminals by inscribing their crime on their skin with needles, but the visitor to the colony wasn't impressed at all

I got downvoted (presumably by an ilxor) for bagging on said ilxor's food post, lol. Sorry bro, that looked like straight garbage.

The good news is... he has never posted on this thread, so perhaps he will never know that was me!

how do you know it was food by someone from ilx?

so i was at dinner with a britisher. she ordered a prawn and rocket pizza. when it came, she put ketchup on it. I have pics

The poster has the same unusual username here and there, and by browsing their posting history I could tell it was the same person.

their algorithm does some weird auto-downvoting shit to compensate for spam or brigading

u should just spill so we can all see the gross food thing ilxor posted to reddit and downvote it

haha, i'm petty but not quite that petty!

ooh good clue. who is the biggest tom petty fan?

food redditor, please post yr gross food thing itt

i think i see the post in question and uh are you sure it is the same person?

Same hometown and same current city?

r/relationships:

I [26m] just caught my girlfriend [20f] lying to the IRS saying she’s ‘single’ on her tax form. Should I be concerned?

Anyone been following this Spongebob Squarepants thing?

The main Spongebob subreddit, https://www.reddit.com/r/BikiniBottomTwitter/ , started a change.org petition a while back for the NFL to pay tribute to Spongebob creator Stephen Hillenburg, who died last year. They wanted them to play a Spongebob song, Sweet Victory, which came from an episode about a football halftime performance. The petition gathered over a million signatures.

At some point the nfl's twitter account (i think) tweeted a gif of Spongebob, leading many to believe that the song would indeed be included in the halftime show. For several weeks, /r/bikinibottomtwitter posts about Sweet Victory would rise to the top of /r/all, indicating the redditors fevered anticipation. On game day, Maroon 5 posted a teaser trailer that included Spongebob and it seemed like the deal was sealed.

However, when the halftime show rolled around, the tribute was minimal. A little bit of Spongebob footage was used to introduce Travis Scott's portion and I guess that was it.

/r/bikinibottomtwitter went into a full meltdown. People were like "I never would have watched the Superbowl if it hadn't been for the promise of a Spongebob tribute." The subreddit changed its downvote button to the NFL logo. Many even began brigading /r/nfl, whose mods apparently just adopted a policy of deleting any spongebob-related posts on sight.

finding it very hard to know who to root for here

lol reddit xp

lmao @ watching one football game in your life and having it be *that* one

i was wondering what that spongebob shit was about lol

man, trawling a bit around the internet.....people really are mad about this SpongeBob thing. it's like Szechuan Sauce all over again.

Yep, good comparison

I suppose it's worse to meme wrong than to not meme at all

Tencent is, at great cost and ultimately for great profit, literally reinventing censorship in China. The Great Firewall was not built by the Communist Party in Beijing, it’s built by the tech giants all around China. This opaque but clearly powerful relationship between the $699 billion company and the Chinese government raises interesting and unanswered questions about Tencent’s forays into the West, including questions about Reddit’s future.

what the hell is going on

Tencent is part of China’s foreign policy strategy, it would appear

oh i meant why is a massive chinese censorship juggernaut buying a slice of this politically uncensored website

oh i see what you mean. perhaps the ccp has recognised the threat reddit poses to meme control

Meme control to Major Tom...

Seems potentially ominous who knows

reddit more like no i was not allowed to

Why is it that racism can't be artistic?

Bolt the door, Varg is loose!

>Also that he hates non-Aryan people and thinks they should be exterminated.

Has he ever said anything about exterminating any race? As far as I know he just wants to avoid being demographically & culturally replaced (which is a desire that's expected and goes without questioning from pretty much everyone except whites).

Wonder what ol' Roger Adultery is up to these days.

Playing Proud Boy meetings, probably

punksishippies just asking questions

Has anyone gone onto that T_D thread and actually pasted his "racism is great!" posts to show up the lying little toad?

...oh wait its a 2 year old post nm
