...and yet I'll still down that shit with all my might.

[–]Scaredoftriangles 13 points14 points ago

If you headbutt your left mouse button hard enough, you'll see multiple blue down arrows. Makes you feel more accomplished.

[–]Stregano 6 points7 points ago

Challenge Accepted

EDIT: nope, it didn't work and I have a headache

[–]oivitz -2 points-1 points ago

GUYS! GUYS! HE DIDN'T ACTUALLY EDIT IT, GUYS!

[–]jettrscga 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

You can edit a comment within the first 2 minutes without the icon appearing indicating that you edited it.

I trust Stregano and firmly believe that he headbutted the fuck out of his mouse, regained consciousness, and edited his comment in under 2 minutes.

Edited 3 times just for fun.

[–]oivitz 1 point2 points ago

Or that. Man, do I feel dumb.

[–]jassack 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

You're not dumb, just misunderstood.

[–]Pravusmentis 0 points1 point ago

The fake out:

downvote, rescind, re-downvote! haha fooled you fuckers!

[–]edgeman4 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Everyone can double-downvote, just upvote it first!

[–]GORILLADIX -1 points0 points ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I like to downvote all my own post! Just so i can upvote myself later! See

Edit: but sometimes the hivemind sees -1 and theres no stopping em

Red rover, red rover, send krauser1 right over.

[–]streleckub3 0 points1 point ago

You pop your left shoulder in, you pop your left shoulder out, you pop your left shoulder in and you shake it all about...

[–]ProbablyHittingOnYou 21 points22 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

You should leave a comment telling others why it is shitty. It can have a surprisingly large effect of reversing or at least stemming the tide of upvotes.

[–]gangy86 29 points30 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Then most of the time you get downvoted for being an insert negative comment here

[–]Yarik32 11 points12 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yup kinda lke this

[–]The_Angry_Gamer 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Like 90% of my comments? :D

[–]Kelphatron9000 11 points12 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Then you just get those threads that make it to the top of the front page with all the high upvoted comments negative. Those are enigmas. The post is 2k+, but then no one in the comments likes it.

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points ago

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

most people don't go into the comments they just upvote based on the titles which are always accurate and never deceptive

[–]chris_ut 0 points1 point ago

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

Many people have it set so once something is voted on it is cleared from the front page so they just upvote everything to get rid off it.

[–]Probabilly 1 point2 points ago

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

You only need to convince 10 percent of the commentators to agree with you, then the majority will follow.

[–]pseudolobster 1 point2 points ago

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

That only works if you are a high profile well recognized redditor, say, with the highest comment karma on the entire site.

[–]ndneze 1 point2 points ago

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

Reply regardless if you feel strongly about the issue. What's the worst that could happen?

[–]pseudolobster 5 points6 points ago

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

Oh, I do. Quite often in fact. I'm just saying often times it backfires, you get -50 downvotes, and people reply to say "I upvoted OP just to spite you".

The actual worst that can happen is someone goes and adds their opinion to the reddiquite page, so now "no complaining about reposts" is now an "official rule"

[–]Telepathetic 0 points1 point ago

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

It doesn't work so well if you're downvoting a repost though. Then people just get pissy at you for commenting on it.

[–]brolix 0 points1 point ago

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

go against the hivemind? lolololololol

[–]fargin_ice_hole 8 points9 points ago

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

Like that Australian picture of text, for example.

[–]Compromised_Identity 2 points3 points ago

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

To be fair, it was in r/funny. They don't have rules about that.

[–]EnfantTerribleFan 2 points3 points ago

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

Seems they don't have rules about funny either

[–]fargin_ice_hole -2 points-1 points ago

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

It's kind of an unwritten rule. Although people still upvote that crap. It's annoying as hell.

story of my life...

[–]Pravusmentis 4 points5 points ago

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

pets, kids, something your girlfriend made, your parents, rage comics, memes, your costume, celebrity worship.

These things will get the downvote no matter how tall they are.

Also if you hit preferences (next to your name) you can make posts that you have voted on disappear after you voted on them (keeps you page looking cleaner) and you can also set your page view count to 100 instead of 25 or having ot use neverending reddit on Reddit Enhancement Suite

[–]AlwaysAppropriate 0 points1 point ago

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

Too bad that after a while your vote gets auto rescinded and the post pops back up on your front page... Annoyying as fuck and i reported it but nothing is happening about it..

And pardon the typos. Doing this from the phone with a very small qwerty kbd...

[–]Pravusmentis 1 point2 points ago

i thought I was taking crazy pills

[–]NameTak3r 0 points1 point ago

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

The conversation in my brain: "Awwww what a cute puppy" "No." "But it's so..." "Come on, you're stronger than this. Do the right thing." *downvotes *

Sadly I'm not strong enough to actually close reddit.

[–]weisner 6 points7 points ago*

I downvoted this to experience what was happening in that photo

You cannot observe me, but I am there beside you, brother.

[–]djcack 1 point2 points ago

I misread that. I heard Fight Club in my head, "I want to downvote something beautiful".

[–]Doggiestylze 1 point2 points ago

That guy is a complete badass.

Upvoted for super relevance to current events!

Down know if I should down vote this or not...

Reminds me of that scene in Arrested Development where Gob is trying to dramatically throw the letter in the ocean

[–]cornelius_mumbungo 0 points1 point ago

i'm going to let this get a load of upvotes and then downvote just to know your pain...empathy: it's strong shit

[–]xteve 0 points1 point ago

There's got to be more to life than Reddit-centric posts. I downvote.

[–]RandoAtReddit 0 points1 point ago

You're right. It DOES feel that way. Huh.

This is how I've been feeling the last couple of days downvoting halloween posts.

Dont know whether to upvote or downvote :(

[–]butterjuice 0 points1 point ago

This is a perfect example of how a title makes a mediocre picture hilarious

[–]Brocktoon_in_a_jar 0 points1 point ago

that's your fault for supporting Israel, believing the word of the U.S. government over that of Iran, not finding dumb memes funny, and not jerking in a circle

[–]txdude75252 0 points1 point ago

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

Wow! I now feel the same way too...

[–]brolix 0 points1 point ago

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

But we still do it damnit!

[–]Cypherwraith 0 points1 point ago

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

I feel the same way when I upvote something with tons of downvotes. BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN I WON'T TRY!

hahahaha :D

[–]mikepixie 0 points1 point ago

Downvoted just to see what it feels like.

[–]lefthandedsurprise 0 points1 point ago

Probably going to get buried...

but like that post around 10 hours ago that said something like "the star you wished upon blew up millions of millions of LIGHT YEARS ago. I wanted to punch everybody.

[–]non_existing_person 0 points1 point ago

When I opened this my first reaction was... This... Is... SPARTA!

Never compromise. Not even in the face of Armageddon.

[–]jingoblingo -3 points-2 points ago

You tricked me into upvoting. Clever.

[–]Hidetoshi_hasagawas -5 points-4 points ago

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

I'll save this and wait for it to have 100s of upvotes to downvote it. Solidarity.

[–]Hidetoshi_hasagawas -3 points-2 points ago

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

Dang, three people either didn't get the joke or don't care for solidarity.

[–]spazmodic- -2 points-1 points ago

going against one-hundred's of upvotes is conceptually easy but tough in reality
