Using reddit for judging others is like using The Brothers Karamazov for judging 18th century Russian inheritance law and homicide jurisprudence.
- If he's honest, he'll steal; if he's human, he'll murder; if he's faithful, he'll deceive.
Reddit is anything anyone needs it to be. Reddit is the internet's rule 34 generator.
Reddit is the 21st century Hamlet.
