I think I already posted this one here but it's a perfect example of where he's coming from. The dude swoops in and tries to downplay the possibility of racism before even reading the story beyond the thread title. It's basically his knee jerk reaction and that says it all, really.

[thisismyusername]

Wow, you're a male ginger too? You sure were dealt a harsh hand. 

Hey, I know a decent looking Married :'( Ginger.  :'( But I guess we'll come back to this bridge in about... 2 years?

[headwalk]

what is stereotypical reddit culture?

i mean, to me it was always the kind of limp, insipid internet collectivism. a toothless wryness which distils humanity into a self congratulatory gloop of memes, shit puns and painfully inoffensive humour.

but to others, reddit is personified as a breeding ground for groups of insular thinking nutjobs to double down on their own unhealthy prejudices and misconceptions.

it's probably too ubiquitous at this point for anything so specific to adequately describe it. even as a stereotype.

It's a floor wax AND a dessert topping!

[StealthFan]

4chan owns but I am warming to Reddit. I still hate the layout but I downloaded this firefox extension and it makes it a little bit better. There is some ok discussion in Truegaming and I can get news from Games instead of GAF. Fuck GAF, man. I am pretty much done with that place now.

Usually I stick to Games at SA but SA is down and has been for a few days now Shit better not be gone forever. Their SJW shit was annoying but I liked some of the threads there.

I've been missing the Doobie's Dog and Politoon threads.

The best part of that thread was the link to Gifcam.

gaf gaming side is pretty much unbearable to me now. i don't know why but all of a sudden i am disgusted by all the manchildren in that place

[Pickles the Firecat]

The subreddits worth visiting fall into three categories:

1. Schadenfreude

/r/subredditdrama
/r/thebluepill
/r/tumblrinaction (kind of shitty now tbh)

2. Hate and/or Pity Reading

/r/theredpill
/r/redpillwomen
/r/worldnews
/r/mensrights
/r/relationships
/r/relationship_advice

3. Legitimate Utility

/r/askhistorians
/r/Coachella
/r/AdvancedProduction
/r/[yourcollegecampus]
/r/[yourcity]
/r/[yourspecificillness]

4. Gone Wild

Never really had a problem with the layout. Use Reddit Sync on Android.

/r/games and /r/gaming is just as fucking awful as GAF,

@Pickles: /r/subredditdrama is amazing. I don't really care for /r/thebluepill since it's pretty much "ShitRedditSays" just in another cloth.

Honestly:

-The default layout is fine. The problem is the white is too bright which breaks the "nesting line" to show which comment goes to which parent (but you can get around this by using the "permalink" which nests the comments under the one comment they're replying to) it takes about an hour max but then you adjust
-The default subreddits are all terrible
-The minor subreddits can be good... provided they don't get large
-Only go to Reddit for the amateur porn. Otherwise don't bother.

Then again that last one could be replaced by /soc/ on 4chan, depending on shady-age-business finally being stamped out, I guess. Well, that and obviously photoshopped dicks.

I don't think people 'hate reddit', they just hate the design of the site.

i've hated that format for discussions ever since slashdot. fucking christ. gahahahashdhhhdhfahsld



also, my gary oldman thread, which was really just poking fun at needlessly stanning your dumb celebrity friends, has gone off the rails pretty well.

Welcome to post puberty, dont worry, by age 25 you'll start reverting to your old prepuberty stupid self. It's the circle of life.

[WanderingWind]

r/tumblrinaction is where I go when I want to get mad for no reason related to my actual life. Like, visit the page, then see how many posts it takes you to want to drag some fuck to a real shitty area of the world and leave them there to blog about oppression.

Today, it took me 3 posts.

[Momo]

You guys should browse the misc, at first you are dumbfounded by the idiocy, then you get mad, then you mellow out, then you just laugh at the idiocy.

[StealthFan]

Truegaming is fine. While /games is probably full of putzes it gives me news without having to browse GAF.

[Squiddy]

Browse?
I post on misc.

[Oblivion]

What happened to the SA forum? It's been down for several days now.

[Kara]

/r/communism has rules so thorough no one can even post substantive content in the subreddit.

Nobody is surprised by this, you disgusting pakipoor

There is no explanation as of yet.

[Verdigris Murder]

SA literally went down just after I'd posted about the rumour about Tom Cruise's weird 'personal time' Scientology thing.

So, will you bite? Honestly, I want it (and I want it bad) but don't want to have to worry about yet another release, this time a director's cut of XI with all the amazing deleted Klingon scenes. I would kill for a director's cut of XI, wouldn't you? Additionally though, I am afraid buying this will send Paramount the wrong message (I'll keep buying anything), but equally afraid to send the wrong message by not buying it (fuck bonus content, just make shit releases of Trek). What do you think is the best way to get the right message across? I don't wanna support shitty practices, but I want good releases like this one again.

[Verdigris Murder]

He's given time off from his cult once a year.

He spends it on his island in the pacific, being hunted by four black guys.

Oh shit, Martin Raperman is back, hide yo kids hide yo wife.

[Shuri]

SA's downfall is sad. It used to be an incredibly powerful and  resourceful forum in the early '00. I think 4chan is starting to die out too? we barely hear anything about them nowadays.

[thisismyusername]

Nah, 4chans still around. Just mellowed out considerably.

[Rufus]

Other sites are sucking up all the new blood that would otherwise go to 4chan. Reddit, Tumblr... And if you think Reddit memes are annoying, here's a board with temporary threads that repeat themselves over and over and over until you need a filter for them.

Tumblr is like the dark net to me. I don't even use it for porn, even though I probably should, looking at some of the stuff in our NSFW thread...

[Atramental]

Tumblr is a magical place. 

[Great Rumbler]

We're very much aware that the forums have crashed, and greatly apologize for this obscene amount of downtime.  A DBA is currently working on restoring them, but has given us no ETA on their return.  If you want to keep updated on their status, please follow my Twitter account:

Again, I'm sorry and embarrassed as hell about this.  I will keep you all updated through my Twitter account the moment I learn anything.  Thank you for sticking around during this shitty time.

Fuck if I know, I'm old. Tumblr and Reddit are all I could think of.

Oh. I read it that you included reddit and tumblr in with 4chan

Tumblr is the anti-neckbeard. That's their entire schtick, near as I can tell

[Tasty]

Yeah, like literally. They're polar opposites, but oddly just as annoying.

Holy fuck that tumblr in action subreddit is amazing. How do these people function in real life?

yea tumblr porn is pretty dumb. So much nerd shit and weird fetishes nobody cares about. Like you might see a cool pic of a babe and say hm, lemme find the source. Then you stumble across the tumblr and it's full of armpit fucking

[magus]

Tumblr is a magical place. 

i know the place has a bad reputation but i have a few gaming/comics in my list of tumblr that i follow and it's a great source of "look at the cool things the internet has!"

like old capcom artwork!



random artwork about robocop and terminator playing rock em sock em robot!



this 4koma manga about tales



this dopey animal crossing ad



remember when square made goofy game?



this cool comic about batman two face!

High quality porn if you aren't a porn addict and just want to see some hot guys with their tops off.

[king of the internet]

I've seen some quality amateur/self shots tumblrs. There's a ton of self-indulgent garbage on the site but there's plenty of good content too if you know where to look. Aside from porn I've seen some good art and photography tumblrs as well.
