[Zap Rowsdower]

According to reddit metal is about community and sharing and love.

I went on Reddit for the first time a couple weeks ago ready to scoff at how stupid the internet is and came across this, which was a genuinely fascinating read:

I go to r/frugal periodically. There's a make up/hair subreddit too that's okay. I generally consider the place to be a cesspool though. Pretty much anything else I want is already on 4chan or Tumblr anyway.

not a good thread, but a brave thread

there's undeniably good info here (amidst some nonsense), regardless of the inane commentary:

aside from the monstrous horde of actual porn subs, I dig this one:

[Zap Rowsdower]

I unsub'd from there when I got a bunch of shit for saying a woman who was jailed for lying about someone raping her should not be punished for as long as a rapist.

Ask fundamentally flawed science questions, e.g. "Why are Japanese people born with blurry genitals?" or "Did I just find out how to breathe underwater forever?"

[How Are Mortiis Goatse?!]

I unsub'd from there when I got a bunch of shit for saying a woman who was jailed for lying about someone raping her should not be punished for as long as a rapist.

Obviously the correct punishment would that the dude who was accused of rape gets to rape her for real, since he might as well cause everyone's gonna think he did it anyway. That's a win-win situation if you think about it. Especially if it's all an elaborate ruse and if he actually tries to rape her the act is intercepted and he is sentenced to public flogging. Since that would be entrapment we'd all have an excuse to throw rocks at cops.

This thread turned me on to the notion of subreddits - until I saw it, I wasn't aware that you could actually tailor the site to your liking. I had thought that the entire site was basically just a bland version of /b.

Since then though I've completely reversed my anti-reddit stance; specifically because of the ability to subreddit any topic, I'm starting to feel that this site might be better than any other large messageboard system I've ever seen. The combination of heavy general traffic and niche interest focus is pretty fascinating, and I'm stamping on the jame seal of approval (since I know you all sit around waiting to hear what I think about unbelievably well-recognized internet stuff).

I'm now in the habit of jumping directly to one of a few subreddits I've discovered, and foregoing the 'front page' experience entirely.

So, thanks for the thread Zap - here's my list fwiw:

ahaha, "nottheonion" is tempting

[james]

IG's r/frugal recommendation is spot on - if I had any sense in my head I'd be browsing that place a bit more regularly.

This is a particularly cool idea: http://www.reddit.com/r/FiftyFifty

Each link is submitted with two descriptons, and you won't know which one is true until you click - like flipping a coin.
It's fascinating, because I figure most web junkies are probably fairly numb to nudity, cute animals, and unsettling images - but somehow, adding a gambling element to the whole thing makes it a fresh and thrilling experience all anew

ahaha, "nottheonion" is tempting

Lady jame turned me on to that one. Browsing it straight is amusing enough, but I enjoy that one the most when the stories float to my main page feed; your eye finds the headline first, and then seeing that it was posted to 'nottheonion' is like adding a punchline.

nottheonion is great
