When a tree dies, it dies slowly. The heart of it rots, and then the roots stop growing, and only much later do the branches stop growing new green leaves. By the time the whole trunk falls over, there've been raccoons burrowing into the rotten heartwood for years.

With this analogy Lemmy could be the sapling that one day will grow into a large tree!

Then be the racoon. Drive up the cost. Upload hour-long videos of white noise or pictures of John Oliver beeing sexy. I think I am going to create a couple of throwaway accounts just to show how unprofitable reddit can be ;)

I respect that, but I'm more interested in raccoons personally

Oh you meant literal raccoons, sorry my tired ass was still thinking of them metaphorically :D I don't know, beeing an animal and not having to work is cool and all, but I like my opposable thumbs.
