Coming to a comment thread to reply "this" feels so cheugy. When I think of the heydey of reddit, I think of 2011 in my dorm room doing the grow a college subreddit. And here we are twelve years later and the best experience you can get now is exactly that same experience.

A month or two ago I got a bunch of downvotes for explaining why I didn't like a game. The people responding said it was because my comment was "too long." It was like six sentences. Why are these people on Reddit instead of Twitter?

I think we just witnessed the birth of its use! It vibes like something that's chuggy but has a kind of abstract phlegmy quality to it.

Who knows - I should be sleeping!

It's that kind of mucus you cough up, normally if you're a bit sick. Not quite snot, not quite spit. Somewhere between.
