Want to wade into the snowy surf of the abyss? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful youāll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.

Yud explains, over 3k words, that not only is he smarter than everyone else, he is also saner, and no, thereās no way you can be as sane as him

Ah, prophet-maxxing. āthey have no hope of understanding and I have no hope of explaining in 30 secondsā
This guy wrote this (note I donāt think there is anything wrong with looking like a nerd (I mean I have a mirror somewhere, so I donāt want to be a hypocrite on this), but looking like one and saying you are above tropes is something, there is also HPMOR)
No one point out that ākeeping your head while all about you are losing theirsā is also a trope.
