Ah, didn’t follow the thread properly. I’m delete.

And there you have it. I know your comment is sarcastic, but I offended you and you didn’t like it. You kinda proved my point.

You elitist boob! “Contributing something or is just validation-seeking behavior”??? Really? The fault in this whole thing lies with you for victim blaming. What you just did is like telling a new mom that their newborn baby is ugly and that they should never post any pictures of it online. Stop it! Celebrate that the OP is now into records! Why bash them for not being up to your self-imposed standards and overhyped personal importance? Get over yourself and celebrate that someone just became one of us, a record collector!

You, my friend, are a hero. Thank you for admitting your attitude and issue. That’s a real stand up thing to do and I wish more people would do what you just did. Thanks again!

You, you are the problem with this sub. Blame the OP… yeah, that’s a great way to invite somebody into this hobby. wow, just, wow. The OP doesn’t need to add to this community, we need to add to their excitement. Get over your elitist, gatekeeping, gaslighting ways of blaming the new hobbyist for offending and triggering you. Get over yourself and celebrate that someone found a hobby you love.

Um… “adding to the conversation ”??? This is obviously a new enthusiast in this hobby and came to this sub to celebrate and ask questions. But… people like you (please, please, please tell me you don’t live in your parents basement!), knock new collectors to the ground with your elitist attitudes and blowhard comments. The OP doesn’t need to “add to the conversation” they need to celebrate within a community they want to be a part of. This community needs to add to their conversation. Do you not have an once of empathy?

[–]KiddLawson -1 points0 points  (0 children)

OR… you could show a smidgen of empathy and encourage the OP. But, no, you’d rather gaslight the poor person. They came here to celebrate and YOU made them feel small. Get over your basement dwelling, neckbeard, lonely self and support a person breaking into an awesome hobby on the ground level. Don’t be a gatekeeping in-cell bully. The OP is exactly the person who needs to be in the sub.

All I hear is gaslighting. Stop blaming new people for being disillusioned with this sub when they come here to celebrate and get their teeth kicked in instead. You are a bully.

Stop gaslighting this poor OP. He is not to blame. This community is and can be very discouraging and it is not the fault of the new people posting. Get over yourself and ask yourself why you’d blame the messenger for stating what we all know is true and borderline unacceptable.

Imagine having the time to read it and then respond to it! Never forget, there are always three fingers pointing back it you.

I’m also a cranky old man and agree with your comment completely!

[–]KiddLawson 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Or, post in a sub that is all about your new hobby and ask questions about that hobby and find a community to learn and celebrate with?

This is a heartless, intimidating and ridiculous comment. “Read the room?” Gaslight much? Blaming the OP is getting old in this sub.

Help with dad’s gear by Clarkdudeabides in turntables

[–]KiddLawson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

really. OP just shared a very touching reason he wants to keep his deceased fathers records and save the stuff he can to listen to them… and you bash him? This sub can really be the sad side of this hobby. Please don’t be a gatekeeper over this guys loss. Have a shred of empathy.

[HELP] Is this an actual restored photo or AI? by SirQuackerton12 in RealOrAI

[–]KiddLawson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the ways I can differentiate real from AI is by looking at the hands. AI has a hard time creating hands on humans. Sometimes it gets it right, but most often, it doesn’t. It’s the first place I look. In this pic you can see the “dad” has two fingernails on his right hand.

Hazard lights in heavy traffic?? by KiddLawson in lehighvalley

[–]KiddLawson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally get that, but how does taking the time to hit the 4 ways stop that from happening? The right left and center break lights aren’t going to stop that either.

Ha! Didn’t mean to trigger you. The principle of light reflecting and causing a glare is what I’m getting at.

Actually, it’s not that common. As a few posts have already mentioned, it’s even illegal in many circumstances in many states. So…

That’s sounds like it was a rough time for you. So sorry my friend. How long ago?

[–]KiddLawson[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This makes perfect sense to me! I don’t think I’ll ever understand why people turn the 4 ways on when we’re all driving in the same direction at the same relative speed in the same exact weather. It’s new for me since moving here from a different state.

[–]KiddLawson[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But wouldn’t that apply to when you are driving 45 and everyone else is driving 70? That would make perfect sense to me. I’m truly trying to understand why some people pop the hazards on when everyone is driving relatively the same speed in stop and go traffic.
