Nice clothes and makeup, loser. Oh, you’re expressing yourself? You’re having fun? Well I’m going to stop you right there, because we both know goth is a music based subculture and I can tell from looking at you that you don’t listen to any goth bands. Depeche Mode and Joy Division? Don’t make me laugh. The Sisters of Mercy? Andrew Eldritch himself says they’re not goth, are you saying you know better than him? Siouxsie and the Banshees? Oh, I’m terribly sorry to inform you that they were straightforward post punk, who then sold out to the mainstream and became alternative pop. Don’t see the word goth anywhere in that sentence, I’m afraid. Rosetta Stone, the Merry Thoughts, Fields of the Nephilim? You may not be aware of this, but all so-called “gothic rock” bands were simply ripping off the Sisters of Mercy while bringing no creativity or value to the table whatsoever. And as we have already established, the Sisters of Mercy are not goth. Bauhaus? Just because they wrote a song about a vampire they must be goth, huh? I won’t even bother to address that, but I will gladly let you know that Bauhaus clearly is not a goth band, since there was no goth genre yet when they were in existence. It’s really not complicated at all. And the Cocteau Twins are popular again, so obviously they’re not goth. You really are stupid, aren’t you? Oh okay, something more modern? Vision Video, Urban Heat? Oh please. Just plain new wave poorly masquerading as goth. It’s honestly insulting. Drab Majesty? With that instrumentation? Give me a fucking break. London After Midnight were never goth, and they certainly aren’t now. There’s something here you seem to be missing. It’s not about having fun, or listening to music you like, because I hate to burst your little bubble, but you’re not supposed to like goth music. Listening to it should be a chore! You’ve got to suffer through every minute in order to earn the right to wear those cool clothes of yours! But uh oh, you seem to be out of luck. Goth music isn’t real. Nowhere on this Earth exists real goth music. Well, nowhere except on my bandcamp page, where you can find my 102-minute demo tape. And yes, it’s also produced by yours truly. You’re welcome. Of course, you still won’t be a real goth until you can recite the lyrics of 5 songs each from 10 goth bands in 15 subgenres, but that’s okay. You can just call yourself darkly inclined. And also a dumb loser.
Started as a circlejerk post on the OSRS subreddit mocking the elite hardcore players.
The playerbase of this game is in dire need of a small, elite upper crust to look down upon and belittle the vast majority of you pathetic plebs.
At the end of the day, what separates the kings from the peasants is a fundamental disparity in skill, wealth, and accomplishments. We elite players represent the top 1% - a rarefied echelon that you mouth-breathing knuckle-draggers can only dream of reaching. Our superiority is undeniable, our prowess unmatched. We are OSRS's Olympians while you're all stuck wallowing in the special olympics.
The vast majority of you are simply irredeemable losers by nature. No amount of grinding or pet hunts will ever change the fact that you're playing an online medievalclicker game in your mid-30s. Your very existence is a joke - a punchline that writes itself. The only shred of purpose your meaningless lives can ever have is to serve as whipping boys that we elite players can endlessly mock and negatively reinforce our own grandeur.
We are OSRS's Übermensch - a superior breed of gamers forged from endless hours of grinding, scamming, and psychological torment. We've ascended beyond such trifling concepts as empathy, humility, and human decency. Such traits are crutches clung to by the weak - and weakness is a sin that we elite ruthlessly extinguish from our ranks.
You can preach about "community" and "basic respect" all you want, but we'll be too busy sneering at your failings from our vaunted pedestals to hear you over the sound of our own self-satisfactory laughter. We are OSRS's Alphas and Omegas - demigods walking amongst peasants too blind to even comprehend our greatness.
Stay mediocre and know your place at the bottom of the food chain, runescapers. The throne only has room for we few elite players worth of occupying it.
I can't take it anymore. I'm sick of Reno. I try to play Demon Hunter. My board gets cleared by Reno. I try to play Rogue. My board gets cleared by Reno. I try to play Sargeras. The portal gets cleared by Reno. I want to play Druid. The best deck has Reno. I want to play Mage, Warrior. They both use Reno.
He grabs me by the throat. I update my deck. I shove excavate cards in the ETC. He isn't satisfied. "Make your deck highlander" he tells me. "You need the board control in the end game." He removes the second Sleet Skater from my Mage deck. "You just need to have me on turn 9. I can wipe the enemy board."
I lose the ladder game, I can't survive until turn 9 to play him. He sits around in my hand. My hero explodes. "Guess this is the end." He tips his hat at me. "Looking for a standoff? Careful-" There is no hint of sadness in his eyes. Nothing but pure, one-sided board clear. What a cruel world
My name is Baby Gronk. I'm 33 years old. My home is in the northeast section of Ohio, where all the Skibidi Toilets are, and I'm not an NPC. I work as an employee for the GYATT Fanum Tax Rizz University, and I'm mewing looksmax every day by 8pm at the latest. I don't griddy, but I occasionally jelq. I'm in Tilted Towers by 11pm and make sure I get 8 hours of gooning, no matter what. After having a grimace shake and doing about 20 minutes of sus ayo poses before going to bed, I usually have no problem edging until morning. I was told there were no Peppinos at my last goonsesh. I'm trying to explain that I'm a Sigma who wishes to rizz a very skibidi toilet. I take care not to fanum tax myself with any Peppinos like gooning or cringing that would cause me to lose rizz at Ohio. This is how I deal with skibidi, and I know that is what brings me gyattiness. Although if I were to edge, I wouldn't gyatt to anyone.
Started as a rant on DoT teams on r/HonkaiStarRail, the post has been used ironically mock other mechanics of the game and player-base. DoT are Damage over Time where some characters have the ability to inflict damage that slowly chips enemy health like poison or burn.

The fact that trying to make ____ viable essentially ‘nerfs’ other characters that don’t rely on ____ is the single greatest mistake they have created. Look at PF, what is that? How is this a gacha game when you are required to pull for certain characters to clear content? They are telling us to pull for certain characters to enjoy the game and that’s the most cunning thing they have done. Yet you and so many others fail to see it.
____ needs a redesign but they cant do it. The best ____ character is already out and it’s only version 2.x of the game.
P.S. Even though this game is so so young compared to other hyverse games, I feel like we are already in ver 4.x. Any harder and no one will start playing anymore.
DoT is a very bad game mechanic that nobody talks about

Copypasta is a very bad Reddit mechanic
Copypasta is a very bad Reddit mechanic that nobody talks about
The fact that trying to make copypasta viable essentially ‘nerfs’ other posts that don’t rely on Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V is the single greatest mistake they have created. Look at r/HonkaiStarRail, what is that? How is this a gacha subreddit when you are required to copy certain posts to get upvotes? They are telling us to copy certain posts to enjoy the subreddit and that’s the most cunning thing they have done. Yet you and so many others fail to see it.
Copypasta needs a redesign but they cant do it. The best copypasta is already out and it’s only year 2 since release.
P.S. Even though this subreddit is so so young compared to other subs, I feel like we are already in year 10. Any funnier and no one will start posting anymore.
