Now, initially they'll go through the newbie stage of "Wow! This is awesome, everyone is having intelligent debates" before the bitter realization of the hive mind, the floods of memes, rage comics and the circle jerk bullshit seeps in. What I like to do to speed up this stage is to start telling them about subreddits that they probably don't know about. Start with r/clopclop, r/spacedicks, r/picsofdeadkids and gleefully watch as their view of reddit as "intellectual" crumbles slowly around them.

In a cumulative group effort, it's almost as though we are all searching for the answer to life the universe and everything, but end up discussing boobs, spacedicks, and cats.

[–]zloon 9 points10 points ago

42, is the answer to the question of life the universe and everything. we're just unsure of what that question is.

What is the optimal amount of combined pictures of boobs, spacedicks, and cats to look at per day?

Doesn't matter, they are mutually exclusive and can't simultaneously be known in the same universe.

Perhaps "how many subreddits should one subscribe to?"

I'm trying to remember when I had that realization. I think it was somewhere around, "Carrots? DON'T YOU MEAN WAFFLES!"

Intelligent debates isn't what attracts people to Reddit, it's the collection of the funniest links on the internet combined with the funniest comments on said links. Only after a while do you realize there are some intelligent debates going on in sub-reddits and strangers genuinely helping other strangers.

[–]dumbledorkus 1 point2 points ago

I disagree. I recently introduced a friend to reddit after he told me he was bored of sifting through all the porn on 4chan to find the funny stuff and he told me how impressed he was that people were actually discussing real news here. Shortly after that he started discovering things like randomactsofpizza and some of the cool charity things redditors have organised. A few weeks of sending him horrific subreddits and him browsing further than the front page and he is a full blown redditor, complete with bitter outlook on the hivemind.

YES. just slowly watch their world crumble and laugh because it's extremely sad/funny.

... r/spacedicks?

+two minutes later+

I don't know what I just saw. But I want to understand what the fuck that subreddit is supposed to be about.

[–]dumbledorkus 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Ha! Someone tried to tell me it was "the most horrific shit on the internet" but it's really not that bad. May I reccomend r/beatingwomen for a full service mind fuck?

It's better than 4chan, digg and 95% of other social websites anyway.

I like that moment when someone brings to light something you are now suddenly realizing you yourself were a victim of. Then you go from the denial stage to laughing at yourself within one minute. "Oh yeah, WTF is wrong with me?"

As a newly addict to this drug we call Reddit, I can honestly say I went through all stages you just described all in one night. I was introduced to this at around 10pm two days ago, next thing I see it's 6am and I have to go take a shower to start my day. I was also explain about subreddits and such... Thanks Reddit, you've made my life that much more enjoyable =]

I introduced my boyfriend to Reddit last week. Haven't seen him since...what have I done?!

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

He won't if posts that lack content, like this, keep getting posted.

[–]Pravusmentis 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

in 2006 USC released a study saying that when you learn new things it may cause an opioid release in your brain, 'thirst for knowledge' or something like that.

So when anyone asks you, you can now argue why you are addicted.

I'm in for one week, and I'm starting to have doubts. This is more addictive than theChive.

I think I'll go back to watch the occasional Youtube-video... and comment on my friends update statuses on Facebook.

I don't have a problem!I swear! It's just pretty much the only thing I do online any more. And pretty much the only app on my phone I use.

My supervisor introduced me to reddit. It started with texting r/nosleep threads after work and now I type this from my work computer, on the clock.

Joey makes the Yao Ming face. Or maybe Yao Ming makes the Joey face?

Btw, I need a fuckton of Friends gifs so that I can spam them somewhere in 20 years so that people would either be "wtf, what's that show" or "oh my, thats Friends, nostalgia attack!".

Upvoted despite my not understanding reddit 'addiction.'

I only use this site to kill time at work.

Er, well, sometimes /r/gonewild at home ... but that's it.

KNOW YOUR REDDIT FIEND. YOUR LIFE MAY DEPEND ON IT! You will not be able to see his eyes because of Hipster-Shades, But his knuckles will be white from inner tension and his pants will be crusted with semen from constantly jacking off to /gonewild when he can't find a rape victim. He will stagger and babble when questioned. He will not respect your badge. The Reddit Fiend fears nothing. He will attack, for no reason, with every weapon at his command-including yours. BEWARE. Any officer apprehending a suspected Reddit addict should use all necessary force immediately. One stitch in time (on him) will usually save nine on you. Good luck. - The Chief

I've actually become careful on who I suggest this site to. You're a douche? Hey man, try digg.com. You're cool? Try reddit.
