Oh! I grab popcorn for any drama xD

In fact. I have popcorn ready any time I brows reddit.

Do you have to keep popping it to stay prepared or do you just eat stale popcorn? Is it that popcorn that comes in a tin?

I have pre-made popcorn. They come in little plastic bags =D

The gif may be funny, but think about it guys and gals. This is really uncreative and the kind of stuff that makes people think r/atheism is a circle jerk.

r/atheism is a circle jerk

r/atheism is a bit of both. Living amongst theists is hard enough. Some of us get here to blow some steam. If you want a slight more serious board, I recommend r/skeptic and r/philosophy.

r/debateanatheist is good too. With popcorn even.

Hey cgo435, this right here.

No reason to care if people think r/atheism a circle jerk. It's not a valid detraction. Nor is a lack of creativity. More so, considering the nature of all popular subreddits.

Honestly, depending on the way you look at them, it seems like all subreddits can be a circlejerk.

All I want for Christmas is one week of r/atheism with image submissions banned.

How did that go for the other subreddits?

[–]darkbridge 1 point2 points ago

A few tried it and ended up sticking with it, I don't know the details of which ones though. One of my favorite subreddits is /r/games if you're interested in gaming, as an example of what it's like.

This is the submission you think makes people see r/atheism as a circlejerk - not the ones dedicated to bashing theism?

It's very disheartening that you're being downvoted when you speak the truth.

And here come my downvotes.

[–]cgo435 0 points1 point ago

Bashing theism is bad. Calmly explaining the truth is good. This is something entirely different. This is just a mindless meme that serves no purpose to the goals of the subreddit.

[–]instapunish 1 point2 points ago

I think that ridicule has its place.

[–]Denkrit -1 points0 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I agree with most of what you said, but I'll keep my opinion on whether this submission is mindless to myself.

Is there a higher quality subreddit where 13 year olds don't upvote this garbage?

[–]darkangelx 1 point2 points ago

and

r/downvoteandmoveonwithyourlifeifyoudontlikesomething.
