I always thought that was a sign it was astroturfed. Like my post? Give Reddit money!

Trick to avoiding that is to never get gold. Took me 10 years to never get gold once. I'm good at what I don't do.

I also hate "happy cake day", and "this". Especially "this". It's a worthless comment that adds nothing more to the discussion than a simple upvote.

I had my entire Oscars Acceptance Speech all ready to go in 2018 for nothing. Stupid Frances McDormand.

😂 this really annoys me on Quora. I never understood why one feels the necessity to do so.

For a second, I seriously thought the fediverse logo next your username was an award 😂

Hey, it can be one if you believe it! It's well-deserved commendation for your contribution to the Fediverse.
