That's a quite an imaginative and tedious process. May your ducks always guard you and keep you safe. If ducks could actually do that... not saying they can't, not saying you're crazy. Not at all. Just being sceptical.

The dashnhammit thing works. I got an email, in my junk mail, with a notification from you. So thanks for helping me figure that thing out!

@dashnhammit You said it. Consent. Big one, that. If and it's a pretty big 'IF' we can establish a way in which your ducks would be able to communicate and in fact, consent. Then I and your ducks, yes all of them, will gladly have a big duck sucking party. Then, we'll do the worst thing, the worst, and just forget to invite you.

Thank you for letting me unnecessarily explain my point and the absurdity within what I was attempting to say, and yet, replying back to it. I wish you much duck-loving, friend.

(by the way, did the '@' sign summon you into conversation? According to these tips it should but I have no way of verifying whether it's functioning or not)

You know, I just realised how much reddit's fucked with me. One thing specifically, the constant one-upmanship, the infighting, the ' this is better than that'. I don't have specific experiences but I will say that I never found it, nor do i now, as a safe place to say anything. I very rarely post comments out of fear that someone might say ' FUCK YOU SUCK A DUCK!'. I'm not particularly fond of ducks, frankly. Neither am I fond of the down voting and upvoting, which in my case, led to me being unnecessarily anxious about my comments; knowing that some duck-loving person will tell me to suck one.

to clarify, the ducks i talk of above aren't a way of mocking hubski but instead to represent the absurdity of internet trolls and their weird creative manners of trolling people whereupon anything can be turned ANGRY and RIGHTEOUS and used to make me or others feel lesser about themselves.

Thank you @kaliYugaz for the reminder as to how horrible Reddit is.

TL;DR Yes, I no longer want to live on an internet site where I fear for criticism from anonymous hate-filled others. I'm glad to know of sites that aren't simply an iteration of youtube commenters.
