In the US, there are 3 places you go when you have totally lost your mind:
1- A psychiatric hospital
2- The Republican Party
3- Reddit
Ok, and maybe an audition for The Bachelor, but that’s it – those four places. That’s why Reddit is such an amazing forum; with only a few places to turn, so many incredibly entertaining people turn there. And where they really shine once they get there, is in the Comments section.
Every once in a while we get lucky, and on Reddit people post links to our articles. Every once in a while we get even luckier, and on Reddit people comment on those articles. Some of those comments are so weird, witty, hilarious and grossly inappropriate that I couldn’t help but start a Hall of Fame. These are my first batch of inductees, with article titles, images, videos, and some color commentary of my own.

There is no denying that this post is highly educational and really helpful. This one should be included to my collection because I thought it to be rather intriguing. Write more.
I really enjoy Reddit. Even though cookie clicker appears to be the same as the rest of the internet, with all of the trolls and such, it is a distinct environment.
I can get lost in Reddit for a day or two at a time, but eventually I realize that everyone there is just trying too hard to outdo the last person who commented.
Is that there will be a report about comments of Reddit every end of year? So what is the main point of this report?

LOL, thanks for the laugh! I really like Reddit but after a while it becomes harder to find anything worth reading.
I am in fact happy to glance at this web site posts which includes lots of useful data, thanks for providing these kinds of information. http://windmason.com/two-stage-evaporative-cooler/
I had a long time fear of posting on Reddit because of the trolls eating me alive.
No kidding and depending on the topic, the level of Trolls is hard to determine until you make that post.
I really like Reddit. Even though it feels like the rest of the internet, with all the trolls and such, it is a different environment.
So many comments, so many mom/fart jokes. Its hard to keep up 🙂
I could spend a day or so at a time on Reddit, but after a while, you can just tell that most of the users are trying hard to impress the next person commenting.
