It's amazing how you people just fall for rage bait all day. One sheet the other. Just looking for mostly non stories to be pissed off about.
- This is a fun comment from a downvote dumpster account that’s spent the last hour spastically vomiting out shit take after shit take. tRiGGeRED muCh 😂🤣😂
  
  "I hate everyone here! Not enough to leave, but I want you all to know it!"
  
  This dipshit has 23 comments since the last time I replied to him, not even two hours ago. That’s either mental illness or a bot.
- Wow, you seem incredibly unpleasant. I'm sorry your life is such that this is how you choose to spend your time.
  I hope things get better for you!
  
  I've read their insipid thoughts on here before, I'm glad they're still around. Partly because their hot takes are hilariously-stupid, but also I think it's good to have our opinions challenged from time to time.
  I mean, they haven't succeeded in making me change my opinions but it's still good to be challenged. I don't want to exist in an echo chamber!
  
  Oh I definitely want and love my opinions to be challenged well. There's just a fine line between an edgy teen determined to be a contrarian and someone with actual, interesting and well reasoned but contrary opinions.
- Um we all agreed it was a shitty non-story. Doesn't mean we can't discuss this while on the shitter.
