    I don’t want to seem like a prick

    Well you kinda failed.

    You are entirely capable of posting material.

      The situation presented in the comic is true, but you have to admit that this is the millennial equivalent of a boomer comic.

        I have to admit nothing and, in fact, I disagree with you.

        That’s the thing about opinions, they’re subjective. You are not the arbiter of the funny. Don’t mistake yourself for such.

          “You have to admit” is a very common figure of speech.

          I’m sorry that made you think I was going to come to your house and beat you up if you disagreed with me.

            You should probably take this hyperbolic and over-reactive garbage back to Reddit where it belongs.

              lol you call me hyperbolic after your “arbiter of the funny” comment?

              Here, I’ll say what I guess I should have said instead of trying to make a joke: you’re allowed to have an opinion but other people are allowed to have one too. People posting differing opinions in a comment section that reflect their own subjective perspectives is what comment sections are for. And yes that includes comments like “I don’t like posts like this and I think we should try to have less of them”. Nobody is censoring you or acting as an “arbiter” by voicing that perspective; and, in fact, there’s nothing I or anyone else you were arguing with could do to that effect.
