  • On top of that, bullshit “reputation” rules should never exist here.

    When I first made my reddit account years ago, I remember being so confused when I couldn’t post more than one comment every 10 minutes (absolute bullshit arbitrary restriction), and when I tried to join a community with “too low karma.” “Oops, you can’t do that cause you’re an unpopular nobody and we don’t want you here… Yet.”

    What’s the actual point of holding someone back from joining your online community if they don’t have enough “points” on their comments or posts? It’s just such bullshit imo, and restricts everything an online forum should be.







  • I love my family, but my aunt and uncle have too much money most of the time.

    They’re actually planning to go on a two-week Mediterranean cruise this summer. And my aunt is going to France at some point for an art study thing, and then she’s just gonna hang out for an extra week by herself. Then my uncle owns a sailboat, and is regularly buying/paying for stuff for it, like a $20,000 engine overhaul, or an $800 custom welded part.

    My aunt, cousin and I all love Legos. We love building them and playing with them and looking at all the details and things. Yet my aunt is weird about dropping more than $100 on a set at one time, even for something like a birthday or other occasion. It’s a weird dichotomy.
