"Evidence contrary to my claim makes me angry!! Go away!!" Redditor moment.

Not evidence, cherry-picked anecdotes. The Redditor's typical standard of evidence, sure, but not one that actually is valid.

The thousands of moments people used a word how you said they didn't doesn't count?

Republican logic.

Versus the hundreds of millions of moments they didn't, lol. You're just like the people who think the rate of crime is always going up, because instead of looking at the actual statistics, they just go by the 'thousands of moments' they see in the 24 hour news cycle.

Please acquaint yourself with what cherry picking is, before you scoff at being called out for doing it, while enthusiastically confirming you're doing it, lol.

P.S. "Republican logic", lol, fucking hyperpartisan brainrot. Telling on yourself.
