This so dumb, but once on the AskReddit someone posted:
Your murderer says, "You get to choose one object. If I can't kill you in 15 minutes with that object, you get to leave." What do you choose?
I wrote:
A confetto (the singular of confetti).
And it received 4.5K up votes.
That's really clever nice one
It was my content but not my comment. It was maybe a decade ago, I was really new on social media and I had a blog. I made a blogpost about something personal, knowing it was public –I found it easier to talk to everyone than to someone I know– but thinking maybe three people at most would read it.
Somehow, it reached someone from a collective who shared it on twitter, FB, all. Thousands of RT, more of 1000 views on my blog, which was a lot for me. I didn't know how to handle it, but I think it participated to change my political life.
I made an offhanded joke comment on Reddit a very long time ago and it exploded, triggering a chain reaction ultimately causing tons of drama among some of the biggest powerusers of the site, resulting in some leaving (or making new accounts.)
Holy shit. How did you feel?
Oh I had no idea how to feel!
I don’t wanna doxx myself or I’d get more specific, but I saw the main power-user in a game like 12 years later, and told him who I was… he just said “you RUINED ME!”jokingly, and we chatted a bunch. Unfortunately, he died shortly after that interaction. Rest in Peace, my funny old-reddit guy.
Blimey it must have been chaos, social media can get very dramatic. I feel for you
How could a joke lead to all that?
I posted a meme on Reddit during 2018 that got 10k+ upvotes. It will probably be the most liked thing I'll ever post in my life.
Levar Burton once liked one of my tweets on my birthday.
Seems like a great way to link past socials to the current ones....
I posted an original meme in a Dune shitposting group and it had 700+ reactions. I also have maybe 4 or 5 reddit comments that hit 2000+ upvotes back when I was active there.
I once shared a reel on Facebook and it was shared nearly 1500 times.
Not a comment but probably one of my MS Paint Pepes or abstract CIA (baneposting). Ahhh, my depressed, NEET days... I don't miss them, lol.
I think the most likes/shares i ever got on any comment anywhere was the time i called Mineta from MHA "Bad Ball Boy". People seemed to enjoy that lol
One time I said something about crypto being better than options or stocks because brokers always warn you about possible losses, but crypto never did. It got liked by the head of coinbase security for a little bit and someone from binance.
I made a way too long reply to a post on a nerdy meme page on Facebook. I haven't even logged into FB in years, but the last time I did it was still (rarely) getting likes.
I remember the image, a Nat 20 and the "What do you see with your Elven eyes?" scene, but I can barely remember what I wrote outside of it being Legolas being able to see everything.
