Copypasta and circle jerk response to reddit culture or hivemind mentality. Primarily done to ridicule AITA sub or r/relationship_advice absurd nature.

Can we stop infantilizing Ringo please?

    Its a circlerjerk comment by u/Background_Carpet841 on Ringo Starr who used to be the drummer for the Beatles.

    Can we stop infantilizing Ringo please? Just because he's not very articulate and sings kids songs occasionally doesn't mean that he should be treated like a child by fans. Ringo is a man, not a cartoon character. Come back when you find a baby that was in the grips of crippling alcoholism for over decade, nearly killed his wife on accident, and beat his addiction to become one of the most positive and healthy rockstars alive. 

    I’m done with Anarchychess

      I’m done with Anarchychess
      
      I've been a member of the subreddit for about a year now, and I'm just tired of it. The jokes are overused, the memes are stale, and the community is toxic.
      
      One of the things that annoys me the most is that everyone on Anarchychess is obsessed with en passant. They're constantly making jokes about it, and they even have a bot that posts about it all the time. But en passant is a completely normal move in chess. It's not that interesting or exciting.
      
      Another thing that I hate is the "shove a bishop up your butt" joke. It's not even funny, and it's physically impossible to do. But people on Anarchychess spam this joke all the time. It's just plain annoying.
      
      And then there's the fact that everyone on Anarchychess calls knights "horsey." This is just wrong. A knight is a knight, and a horse is a horse. They are two different things.
      
      But the worst thing about Anarchychess is the community. It's just so toxic. People are constantly arguing and insulting each other. It's not a fun place to be.
      
      I'm just tired of all the bullshit on Anarchychess. I'm done with it. I'm leaving the subreddit for good.
      
      Here are 20 paragraphs explaining why I hate Anarchychess in more detail:
      
      En passant is not that interesting En passant is a completely normal move in chess. It's not that interesting or exciting. But people on Anarchychess are obsessed with it. They're constantly making jokes about it, and they even have a bot that posts about it all the time. I don't understand why. It's just a normal move.

      The "shove a bishop up your butt" joke is not funny. It's not even clever. And it's physically impossible to do. But people on Anarchychess spam this joke all the time. It's just plain annoying.
      
      3. Knights are not called "horsey"
      
      A knight is a knight, and a horse is a horse. They are two different things. But everyone on Anarchychess calls knights "horsey." This is just wrong. It's like calling a queen a "lady" or a bishop a "priest." It's just not accurate.

      The subreddit is just plain weird. I don't even know how to describe it. It's like nothing else on the internet. It's a unique and strange place.
      
      I'm done with Anarchychess. I'm tired of the overused jokes, the stale memes, and the toxic community. I'm going to find a subreddit that's actually funny and welcoming. 

      I am leaving this subreddit. This is not funny.

        FUCK YOU ALL
        
        I am leaving this subreddit. This is not funny. Not related to chess. Not related to anything and not even FUNNY. Who is even the target for this jokes. What is the point?
        
        "Let's just share pornography because hahaha we are being edgy. Do you get it we are all edgy and we are making jokes NOT EVEN RELATED TO CHESS and you know what the jokes being not FUNNY is supposed to be FUNNY because of shitposting".
        

        I am joining this subreddit

        FUCK YOU ALL
        
        I am joining this subreddit. This is funny. Not related to chess. Not related to anything and still FUNNY. Who even likes chess? What is the point?
        
        Let's just share pornography because hahaha we are being edgy. You are all edgy and are making jokes NOT EVEN RELATED TO CHESS and you know what the jokes being not FUNNY is so FUNNY to me because of shitposting! 

        I never realized how awful it feels to have your efforts dismissed politely.

          If I cause a wipe by charging a pack that everyone and their dog knows needs to be los-pulled unless you want to fight the whole room and someone says "gg noob tank" followed by "lmao git gud loser" then leaves, that doesn't feel nice.
          
          But when you break it down, what this person is saying is that they're frustrated with me, that I'm too inexperienced to meet their standards and that they expect me to do better. And they're saying it in gamer lingo which means that despite my inadequacy for the situation at hand, we remain colleagues in this shared activity of playing WoW, they might be flipping me off while leaving me in a cloud of dust on this racetrack, but in a way they still acknowledge me as a fellow racer.
          
          On the other hand if what they say before they leave is "I'm sorry, this isn't working out for me", that sounds like "I'm so disgusted with this situation that has me working with this... person that I don't want to even comment on it", it sounds like "Margaret, it appears that there is a homeless person sleeping in our opera booth, no Carmen for us tonight, I'm afraid". It sounds like I'm not a living human being who caused the problem, but some manifestation of the reality itself being disappointing. I'm not a noob tank, I'm a vessel of pure idiocy that unfortunately can be found in the game. I have no agency in this paradigm, there is nothing worth addressing because what's intolerable about me penetrates and permeates my very existence. It's not me you address, but someone with the power to insulate you from the fact that I exist. Like I said, it feels awful.
          
          I will git gud, I will spend as long as it takes gitting gud and by that time I will be one of the few tanks who endured that ungrateful task and when people ask me to tank heroics for them, I will remember who simply called me a noob and who subjected me to this dehumanizing existential horror.

          Arrowhead saved me when I was in a dark place.

            I don't give a fuck.
            
            Arrowhead saved me when I was in a dark place. They were my childhood and my adulthood. I owe Arrowhead my life and honestly? So do you probably, you ungrateful piece of shit. So that's why I'll die fighting for them, because evil little cunts want to fuck with them despite the good they've done, despite all the people they've saved, despite all the lives they've changed for the better.

            Burglar is wasted points

              By u/JonBlackfyreTruther, its a shitpost for Project Zomboid on someone who refuses to put their points into burglar.

              Get home from work. Make dinner, talk to my wife, put my daughter to bed. It's now 9 pm. What should I do with the exactly 2 hours of free time I have left in the day?
              
              Play Project Zomboid of course.
              
              Open up character creator, default apocalypse settings of course. Just want to shoot some zombies, and run them over on the highway. You know, fun stuff. Don't take burglar; I can learn to hotwire for free.
              
              Burglar is wasted points.
              
              Spawn in and try and find a car so I can get to the military surplus store. Hmm not a lot of keys for these cars. Still stuck in Rosewood.
              
              Burglar is wasted points.
              
              Okay well I'll just learn to hotwire real quick. Find a mechanics book but not an electrical book.
              
              Burglar is wasted points.
              
              Start disassembling watches. Check my phone once I learn how to hotwire. It's 2 am, I needed to be in bed 2 hours ago but I spent all my free time learning how to hotwire instead of playing the game.
              
              Burglar is wasted points.
              
              Start shaking and sobbing as I crawl into bed next to my wife. A horrible epiphany crests and roars through my mind like a great ocean wave.
              
              "Honey, what's wrong? Were you playing that zombie game? Are you crying cause you picked Burglar?
              
              Burglar is wasted points," She whispers.
              
              I look deep into her dark brown eyes filled with love and concern.
              
              "No dear," I sob
              
              "I'm crying cause I didn't pick burglar."
              
              She recoiled as if I struck her.
              
              I didn't know what I saw in her eyes that night as she started packing her bags and waking our daughter. I didn't know what it meant until the divorce papers arrived a week later.
              
              What I saw was love dying.
              
              Burglar is wasted points.
