Today, another lesson in how to get yourself hundreds of upvotes on Reddit.
It’s really quite simple.
1) Go to the Ask Reddit subreddit. Find the post asking Redditors if they’ve ever “tried a crazy urban-dictionary sex move? (e.g. Alaskan Pipeline, Komodo Dragon, Donkey Punch, etc.) How did it turn out?”
2) Post a story about a hilarious little prank you (allegedly) pulled on a sex partner that instantly transformed consensual sex into violent rape.
3) Oh, and throw in a gratuitous racial slur while you’re at it.
4) Then whine about how your partner’s negative response to your (alleged) little rape prank gave you “blue balls” and complain that you might have to pay her damages for “emotional distress” in civil court (allegedly).
You might think that this might be a bit much even for the morally undeveloped manchildren (and occasional womanchildren) who populate Reddit. But guess what? The poster of the tale in question got literally hundreds more upvotes than downvotes for his whiny “confession.”
Here’s the screenshot to prove it. (I’ve partically obscured the racial slur; click on image to see full-sized version.)
There were, of course, those who reacted like normal human beings to Mr. Dick Pic’s story. (I’ve obscured the homophobic slur that made up the entirely of his reply.)
Mr. Dick Pic was so offended that anyone was offended by his shitty (alleged) behavior that he rage-quit the thread, deleting his comment and — living up to his name — leaving only a dick pic in its place.
Now, Mr. Dick Pic may just be trolling, and I really hope that’s all there is to his terrible story, but his ridiculously pissy behavior after he got called out makes me think that his story, or at least parts of it, may actually be true.
Just another day on Reddit, the internet’s largest and most influential asshat aggregator.
Thanks to an anonymous Reddit informant for the heads-up, and the screenshots.
Oh hey, look everyone, SRS is currently mocking posters who are obsessed with punching women in the face! And pedophilia apologists! That wicked, wicked hate group. *Eyeroll*
Hey, @Brz,
Don’t make me get mean…
The 90% has far more socks than one person needs, you’d think he’d offer to share with those in need.
Whaaaaat the hell! That is fucking appalling, what a horrible man.
And all those socks have holes in them.
And his name embroidered on the cuffs.
Portrait of the 90% (Warning: gross!)
Sometimes I forget how awesome Bobby McFerrin is.
blargh, urgh, ew, @Kittehserf! 🙂
Anyway, I’m gonna try for bed, sleep seems to hate me, but I am definitely gonna try.
Have a lovely night everyone, hope everyone who needs to feels better 🙂
So, just to totally contrast with that last lovely video, and just in case PEMWANK comes back tonight, I’m going to continue with the Wanker theme.
@PEMRA, just in case you’re not clear on my British terminology,
(Sorry all others here who are loved and actually have souls, I’m not on the payroll of Aardman, I just loves me some Angry kid 🙂 )
Also PEMRA….WANKER!
Dude, anti semitism didn’t pop out of nowhere. It popped out of centuries of oppression for Jews and Jews being treated like less of people.
White people have not been oppressed. There is no systematic oppression against us.
Also, difference: I don’t think Jews colonized or genocided anybody. When people say white people are guilty (well, do they? Or do the just say we benefit from privilege?) it’s because of the actions that our ancestors did and we still benefit from
Here, I’ll break this down in five-year-old talk for you.
*Joe shoves my vase off the table*
Me: Gosh, Joe, why’d you break my vase?
Joe: WAAAAAAh, you’re saying I’m guilty!!!! This is just how them Nazi’s in Canada got started!
Obviously, there would be much different power dynamics and social forces here, but I don’t even think I fully get them, so I can’t possibly explain them to a troll.
Can I be lame and say its my birthday?
Too late already did.
And its 6:30pm and I’m all alone.
🙁
I’m just glad I have one friend who isn’t a flake.
I keep trying to tell myself that it is just a day and that it doesn’t matter………
In regards to this post…that is an awful thing to do to someone.
Brz clearly has NO idea what white privilege is……
And fade I don’t think anyone can be fully aware of all power dynamics. I’m with you on that boat.
Hey guys, I’m posting in this thread because it’s pretty active. This is OT but GGG is saying some actually threatening stuff today. I’m not entirely convinced yet that his blog isn’t a joke but his latest post is pretty scary…
Happy birthday and hugs and cake, melody!
@melody:
Happy Birthday, melody!
I hope you had a good year and will have an even better one onwards 🙂
It is just a day, but it is a day that feels special to one having it!
@melody
Happy birthday!!! How old are you turning? If you want to say. And it’s totally not lame to mention it. 😉
And I agree with you. Practically no one can be aware of all the power dynamics, but I think
girls* women are more likely to be aware of sexist power dynamics than men, PoC more aware of racist power dynamics than white people… and so on.*okay, I astricked this for a reason. I originally typed “girls”. And hta’ts like… something that bugs me. Often times, adult women are called “girls” so often that it just kind of… seeps in. I didn’t even realize until teh word was already typed out.
@Bad_dog
Who’s GGG? Either I never heard of them before or my brain edited it out.
It’s a purple people sighting!
I’ll grant you that a LOT of white folks confuse white privilege with the general usage of “privilege” (which has historically referred to class), and assume that white + poor can’t possibly add up to any kind of privilege. It’s a very common misunderstanding, especially when someone is encountering the concept of white privilege for the first time. Fun fact, though: the fact that it’s common for people to get defensive doesn’t mean they’re correct to do so.
I’ll also grant you that mainstream liberals can be appallingly classist (I’m looking at you, people who make sweeping generalizations about rural conservatives), but that still doesn’t mean poor white people don’t have white privilege.
So, liberals are going to get beaten up en masse, and we totally have it coming? You’re so gross.
Happy Birthday melody!!!
Also, because I forgot to post it earlier, all the hugs for cloudiah!
Am I reading this wrong or is this one of those “HITLER WAS A SOCIALIST!!!!!!” bullshit arguments? If so, I’m not Jewish, but I’d still like to say fuck for you for appropriating their history and oppression!
@Fade
GGG’s GovernmentGetsGirlfriends
Happy birthday Melody!
Cloudiah et al, cancer does indeed suck 🙁
Fade, GGG is Governments Get Girlfriends, the guy who thinks he’s being murdered by every woman who won’t fuck him.
Happy birthday, melody!
Oh…. kay. Now I remember that guy. Yuck. Well, I guess I’ll go over there and see what Bad_dog was talking about.

Okay, I agree with Bad_dog it was super creepy and threatening. He (GGG) said he needs to teach this girl who rejected him that “actions have consequences”.
Wait.
The Protocols of the Elders of Zion were fabricated by the Russian secret police some time between 1897 and 1902. The October Revolution didn’t happen until 1917.
That was the Imperial Tzarist state, not the socialists. And it doesn’t help your case that these were then promoted by both Henry Ford and Adolf Hitler, who were rabidly anti-communist as well as antisemitic. Granted, Stalin was also a shit-stain of the highest order and certainly no better in his treatment of the Jewish people, but to point at socialism as the driver of antisemitism is pants-on-head wrong.
