You mean your comment that says "If you're listening to dubstep then you're a piece of shit"?

[–]robofreak222 13 points14 points ago

And he means -65 karma.

[–]55555 3 points4 points ago

i'm confused. Reddit is downvoting his referenced comment while upvoting this post.

[–]C_T_C_C 0 points1 point ago

Psychologically, people can't attack his post, b/c it's true, yet they can down vote his comment because he was a douche... the negative and positive karma will then cancel each other out.

[–]robofreak222 0 points1 point ago

But one is link karma and the other is comment karma, so it will be reflected by looking at both of his scores.

[–]yeaitsgroog 7 points8 points ago

OP's comment from another thread... haha I am choking on the irony.

My toddler got the cops called on me today by screaming "Help me! Stranger!" during a tantrum at the store. What have your kids done that has resulted in police intervention? by blinkerfluid13in AskReddit

[–]backhudson -4 points 1 day ago

You literally used the nigger argument, and the "Good one. Not!". You don't know me, you weren't there when this happened, and you are mad that I used a word. Nobody asked for your opinion on this matter. I didn't drag out anything, you felt the need to cram what you think is right down my throat. I don't care. I didn't mess up. I'm not an idiot, or a hillbilly, or a bigot, or a homophobe for making a joke. I'm pretty sure that the dozens of people that up voted my comment would agree. You are not the all powerful judging eyes of peace and genius. Don't tell me my word choice was bad, because it offends you. If anything you are the one oppressing me. My use of the word "dyke" was not an insult to the gay community. Please understand that telling somebody why they are wrong will almost always make them want to keep doing it. Especially if you're a dick about it.

If you're listening to dubstep then you're a piece of shit.

[–]wheredallthesyrupgo 36 points37 points ago

What an asshole. Time to downvote everything he has.

[–]freebullets 5 points6 points ago*

Don't forget: If you do it from the user page, you're really just giving him an upvote and a downvote simultaneously (+1/-1). Only on the actual post can you actually affect the score (+1).

you didn't insult dubstep, you insulted people.

[–]BobIV 76 points77 points ago

I see...

Based on this post and title it is quite clear that you were not bothered in the slightest.

[–]Sorkijan 60 points61 points ago

Yes, the epitome of not caring about something, is when you make a whole new submission regarding it.

[–]theimpolitegentleman -1 points0 points ago

It's called recouping losses.

Which is why I downvoted his comment and this post

[–]Sorkijan -1 points0 points ago

Would it be ironic to tell you I don't give two fucks?

[–]theimpolitegentleman -1 points0 points ago

A little ironic in the fact that not do I. It's mutual nongivenafuckism

I'm fairly sure no one involved with dubstep is proud of it..

[–]SuperPowers97 9 points10 points ago

No maybe he's proud of insulting dubstep.

[–]Roflkopt3r 2 points3 points ago

He feels rebellious now, of course he is proud.

Beeing 'rebellious' and mainstream at the same time, that's always the win-win situation for kids. But of course only when other people will know of it and give him a pat on the head.

[–]NuclearGrape 6 points7 points ago

I think you can see what happened based on the name of this post:

I insulted dubstep and got -19 karma on the comment

of course you get negative karma, if you insult something or somebody. I guess, if you don't like having negative karma, you should stop insulting other peoples taste. I don't think anybody forces you to listen to dubstep.

[–]WezVC 6 points7 points ago

How the fuck did this get upvoted so much?

This is definitely a new low for Reddit. Ridiculous.

[–]Nemofin 4 points5 points ago

Dubstep is fine, especially oldschool stuff like Coki/Mala/Benga/Skream. It's the fans that annoy me; "LOL CHECK THIS DROP FILTHIER THAN -" "WUBWUBWUB" ect. It's just embarrassing. Also feel the need to point out that you're not superior to anyone, because you like different types of music. Have a nice day.

[–]webmonk 5 points6 points ago

They wanted to WUBWUBWUBWUB it in.

[–]KillTheInfidels 14 points15 points ago*

Insulting a whole genre is just ignorant. It's fine if you don't like it but don't talk shit about something you probably know nothing about.

[–][deleted] ago

[–]KillTheInfidels 0 points1 point ago

A lot of dubstep is most certainly not art. A lot of it certainly is. OPs statement is the equivalent of saying "I insulted paintings".

isnt dubstep just what kids call dance music nowadays ?

regressive musical creativity anyone ?

[–]slenski 3 points4 points ago*

I've had this argument a million times, so I won't even try. All I ask is that you guys be open minded.

Dubstep has gotten a bad name. After shitty artists started making it sound like robot sex and growling, people assumed that all dubstep sounds like garbage. I'm here to show you guys that dubstep is an intelligent, deep, atmospheric, and very emotional genre. I have included a few examples:

Skream - Midnight Request Line

Kromestar - Weak

Hijak - Dally

Peverelist - Roll With The Punches

And there are hundreds more tunes that are actually proper works of music, rather than shit like this.

So, stop being ignorant and start listening to GOOD dubstep!

There's many artists to choose from, Mala, Cyrus, Coki, Loefah, N-Type, Hatcha, anybody from the Deep Medi label, etc...

[–]Ghili 0 points1 point ago

I loooooove Midnight Request Line. Probably my favorite Skream tune.

[–]slenski 0 points1 point ago

Gotta agree with you there. It's just so, perfect.

Dutch Flowerz is up there too

[–]Ghili 0 points1 point ago

I'm glad you linked it too. I haven't listened to it in a while, now it's stuck in my head!

[–]snakesandstuff -1 points0 points ago

Doesn't matter. Still Dubstep.

[–]RickDicolus 4 points5 points ago

Dubstep is okay.

[–]DuckOfOregon 1 point2 points ago

[–]Acoz0r -1 points0 points ago

/r/dubstep is a subreddit filled with bad music, so nobody even cares. People only listen to dubstep ironically. /r/dubstep was created as a spinoff for the serious /r/realdubstep in order to troll people. Everybody who frequents /r/realdubstep knows this.

Besides that, your comment was retarded and so are you.

[–]bluris -1 points0 points ago

Worth it.

[–]mehrman 0 points1 point ago

[–]CaptainJizzBeard 0 points1 point ago

Sometimes the more downvotes a post get the more I feel that it is worth it. Downvotes on this comment won't make me feel that, just so you know.

[–]QuitReadingMyName 0 points1 point ago

Hmm, I don't like Dubstep. Doesn't suit my tastes and hell, I haven't heard of them until I came to this website.

Some songs are nice and catchy though, but yeah. Not my taste.

My reddit comment karma mirrors my real karma. Somehow, some time ago, I built up a massive store of it. Now I can do whatever the fuck I want and still have plenty of karma.

Of course, here it's worthless but I like the comparison.

[–]AlextheGerman 0 points1 point ago

You Sir are a retard, thank for informing me about this. I myself listen to every music genre in existence, from classic to dubstep, everything. The most times I find bad pieces of music and very good ones in all of them. Therefore just saying one genre "sucks" would be totally ignorant.

Why can't we all just respect one another. I personally don't care for dubstep at all. One of my least, if not my least, favorite genre of music. That being said, some of my best friends listen to dubstep. I say we all just listen to what we like and be happy everyone else. Music is a beautiful thing that everyone should be able to enjoy however they would like. No need to be an asshole about it. Am I right? Come on internet, let's be nice to each other.

[–]BoringUsername1 1 point2 points ago

Can you please show me where in this song that part is? I can't seem to find it....

Or were you just generalizing a whole genre?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Im just saying it all sounds like that. It fucking sucks and you couldn't convince me otherwise...

[–]BoringUsername1 0 points1 point ago

I'm not trying to convince you otherwise, just trying to make you slightly more informed so you can at least choose to be arrogant about something that you have at least some knowledge about.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

The fact that you assume I am not informed makes you a bit arrogant and assuming. I am informed. I have heard plenty of dubstep and have a few friends that make dubstep tracks and I have made some tracks myself just for shits and giggles. It's my opinion that it sucks. I hate the repetitve wah wah wah sound that is prevalent on all dubstep. Carry on.

[–]BoringUsername1 0 points1 point ago

Sure I may seem a bit arrogant but I assumed what I did based on the fact that you did not even attempt to accept what I presented to you.

I hate the repetitve wah wah wah sound that is prevalent on all dubstep.

Had you listened to what I posted, you would have realized there is not one ounce of that in this song. The song I posted has it's roots in dub reggae, 2 step, and uk garage. About the only thing this track shares with dubstep you are referencing is the 2 step beat and it ends there.

You ARE uninformed. My friend plays in a shitty Dave Matthews Cover band, but that by no means makes me knowledgeable on jam bands nor Dave Matthews.

Your argument is faulty and childish with no decent support. I supplied you with an example of dubstep contrary to your previous opinion of what "all" of it sounds like and you supply me with "my friend uses makes dubstep". Arrogance aside, you are just plain stubborn.

Like I initially said, I was never trying to change your opinion, just help you be more well informed on something you misspoke about.

[–]haifischsandiwch -1 points0 points ago

Maybe you're generalizing all the work of one musician as just dubstep?

[–]BoringUsername1 0 points1 point ago

Oh...so we're not allowed to provide counter examples to make a point?

Obviously the "wubs and the wahs" exist, and one would be foolish to not recognize that.

I merely provided ONE example that shows that "Wah wah wah bwuahhh wah buwask skriiip wah" is not what an ENTIRE genre is about.

This would be comparable to somone saying Hip hop is "bitches, niggas and weed", and me following up with an example that does not include those themes.

And finally to end my rant, maybe you are generalizing my opinion of dubstep based on one post...

[–]DeeKan 0 points1 point ago

How pathetic is your life OP? Seriously? Do you have nothing better to do?

Probably not and in case you were wondering you're the piece of shit here, keep the virgin neckbeard stereotype going, you got it DOWN.

[–]Kar0xqe 0 points1 point ago

You are a fucking asshole. Realize that and remember that nobody is impressed by this, this is just an unusually successful attempt at karma whoring that only works because seemingly the majority of reddit circlejerks about how much they hate dubstep or many other genres they know nothing about, and likely haven't even listened to. This is no better than saying "if you listen to rock music, you're a piece of shit." It's bashing a group of people for something that the enjoy, because you simply do not and want to display that you are cool by being on the anti-dubstep bandwagon. This is not much different than racism, you are calling an entire group of people a piece of shit for something that they legitimately enjoy.

[–]EmilioEstevezLikesUs 0 points1 point ago

Okay, I agree that saying someone is a piece of shit for liking music isn't cool, but comparing it to racism is just absurd.

Isn't dubstep that awful crap that 8 year olds listen to, that they will be laughing with each other about later in life? "Can you believe we listened to that crap???"
