Pleonasm

AskReddit: What are things that you noticed are always upmodded, perhaps frustratingly so?

Here are a few (obvious) ones that I noticed:

  • References to vintage games (e.g: Starcraft).

  • Memes when they apply, no matter how dead they are.

  • Nice things about ancient famous redditors (e.g: Necrophiliac, Karmanaut).

  • Naked/semi-naked pictures of oneself. Not really frustrating but that always gets people's phallic arrow.

What other kinds of comments always float?

(edit: formatting)

what do you tell a woman with two black eyes?

Nothing. It would be too awkward to tell her anything. I would suspect domestic abuse, but I feel ashamed to say that telling her anything would be me not minding my own business.

Posts by more well-known Redditors seem to be upvoted a lot.

Not a comment but redditors have an annoyingly high tolerance for really old lol-pics or just anything really old in general, I personally don't like seeing the front page full of old stuff.

Is Starcraft really considered to be vintage? I'm afraid you have stepped onto my lawn.

"Why is this being downvoted?...."

"I know this will cause by entire comment to be downvoted into damnation, but I am actually a (christian, republican) who hates (programming, bacon)"

In order to show how reddit is not biased, everybody upvotes the comment.
