    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.
