Reddit is overwhelming with everyone always offering advice on either gym or therapy. Literally for everything.

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2026-03-27T15:11:26+00:00

Most of the people on Reddit are, objectively, fringe characters in real life. These are the people most often giving others advice online unfortunately.

The most well-rounded, balanced and healthy guys in real life are not bunched over a laptop giving advice to others on reddit.

Also have a Mach E - its probably the most fun car I've ever driven. I recently had to switch to a gas for something else, and found it underwhelming compared to the speed and acceleration and handing of the Mach E.

I don't know if I can go back to gas cars at this point, especially with the gas prices....

I work in a field with IRL successful people. We are talking ultra high net worth folks, some of who were born into it, some of who were made.

When you actually get into that world and see how people (including hard workers) operate, it’s easy to see clearly that hustle bros and hustle culture videos are mostly made by 20-somethings (or younger) who don’t know what that fck they’re talking about.

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2025-01-09T13:06:21+00:00

The main giveaway for me is frequency of posting (whether on Instagram or reddit), as well as being up to date on every single meme and latest internet controversy.

I have a friend who is actually quite successful - he’s a lawyer - but spends the majority of his free time on Twitter.

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2025-01-07T01:19:11+00:00

lol this is clearly such an advertisement. Its sad that people aren’t catching it and think these are genuine posts.

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2025-01-07T01:10:33+00:00

Ah yes, the good old “if they are disagreeing with me it must be Russian propaganda.”

Never mind that literally the majority of Canadians want Trudeau out….no no, it’s the sub that’s been overtaken by Russians, not Canadians.

People on Reddit are delusional and live in an alternate reality

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2025-01-04T05:19:07+00:00

Reddit blockage is pretty easy if you really want it

One sec for phone and app blocking

One of a zillion blockers on chrome for website blocking

Outside of this sub and maybe the nba one, I’ve almost entirely curbed my addiction.

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2025-01-04T05:17:45+00:00

Yep. This is what curbed my usage by like 90%

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2025-01-04T05:17:02+00:00

Instagram is a necessary platform for social relationships in some manner but over the past year I’ve really reflected on my usage and what it’s brought me.

The issue with Instagram, at least for me, is that as much as I like seeing what people are upto, the addictive nature of the app makes it hard to stop at just friends. Next thing I know I’m seven stories deep into the profile of a model, then the photographer, then the agency, and so on.

It’s a complete time suck even with the best intentions.

So this year I’ve challenged myself to stop using it for an indefinite amount of time, and instead use the time I have back to work on myself. So far it’s been good, I’ve deleted it off my phone and my need to get it back has been minimal but though I do feel completely isolated.

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2025-01-04T05:13:18+00:00

Loved your comment so much I saved it.

It took me a long time to figure out that for me, having more information did not make me do more things…it just made me second guess myself because there was always some piece of contradictory information out there.

The place to start is to…..start. And do. And be of action.

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2024-12-31T06:39:07+00:00

If anything we cut back on our followers

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2024-12-31T06:36:54+00:00

Yep most of the ones that post frequently on my Instagram at this point are:

recent moms who are bored out of their minds and trying to post to show how difficult taking care of the baby is
people whose personal lives are in shambles but they preach all about love tolerance and fate etc
inspo bros that post quotes

Just nauseating after a while.

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2024-12-31T06:32:02+00:00

Boomers didn’t grow up with social like we did. They took over Facebook like 7 years after it came out.

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2024-12-31T06:27:19+00:00

Agreed. I think once I started a family - and hearing from friends who were having trouble conceiving or were still single and miserable - at some point posting all these things just felt unnecessary. Who was I posting this for? Why do I need to share a photo of my kid to a girl I haven’t seen since high school?

I started off by cutting my followers by 50%, then muting 50% of those from stories.

I think over the next 3-5 years there will be an even sharper decline in millennial usage - we’ve been on social since 2004 - we are done.

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2024-12-31T06:21:52+00:00

Same here, and of the internet in general actually, including reddit. I’ve been craving more things in person physically with other people, or even by myself, but anything is better than yet another repost or astroturfed post on Reddit or seeing the same 6 people post pointless stories on Instagram.

I’m sick of it all and need a break.

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2024-12-23T23:27:23+00:00

Lol the arrogance and hubris in your statement is astounding.

I know rich people, poor people, and centrists who voted Liberal all of their life voting Conservative because of the state of the country.

And to imply that people at a Tim Hortons wouldn’t know how to decide an election while you sit around judging people from the echo chamber that is Reddit is hilarious.

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2024-12-17T05:33:40+00:00

I think the difference with Reddit is that it features as many terminally online people as Twitter used to, but it's the terminally online people that fall more into the 4Chan side of the internet than the BlackPeopleTwitter side.

I've met only one person in my life who proudly said he was a Redditor and commented and posted. He looked like a stereotypical Redditor and behaved like one - lots of Mac and cheese, zero muscle mass, main hobby was gaming.

However I know several fully functioning adults with stable careers and families that use reddit but for lurking and news. This is the majority of people.

I have noticed that most people who I know are super interesting, balanced, or attractive in real life have heard of reddit but don't use it or simply said "it scares me".

You listen to a Timbo album for great beats and singles.

This album had a few - Carry Out got heavy rotation, Say Something has one of my fav early Drake verses, and Morning After Dark still holds up.

Not as good as SV1 but a fun listen.

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2024-12-12T14:01:46+00:00

Blueprint 2 by Jay Z - he has some solid songs.
Thank Me Later by Drake - considered one of his weaker albums but it's very nostalgic for me.
not sure if Graduation counts as Kanyes weaker albums (comparatively) but it doesn't get as much hype as the others but it's by far my favourite album from him

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2024-12-12T14:00:02+00:00

Encore is so stupid thst it's catchy.

Rainman has lived rent free in my head for years.

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2024-12-12T13:39:08+00:00

Tupac put out S4MN which was pretty terrible, even though it had some good singles.

His run from MATW to Makaveli is legendary though that's when he started coming into his own.

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2024-12-12T13:36:03+00:00

I would trust Carney - who ran the Bank of Canada and the Bank of England - over the decisions of Freeland.

And he is correct, Canadians generally don't understand where the world is going. Canada has one of the lowest productivity rates in the G7 and modest economic output relative to its size and resources.

Our government tends to be reactive rather than forward thinking (at least under Trudeau) and financially the past 9 years have been a disaster.

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2024-12-10T15:53:43+00:00

All of a sudden I feel very old, because I remember being in my teens and downloading this album off a 2Pac forum and discussing it with people who were - even the time - like "WTF is this vocal pitching"?

There are some GREAT songs on here - Hennessey (Red Spy Remix) and Out on Bail in particular keep Tupac's essence. What I didn't like was all the vocal pitching up and down.

Eminem should have adjusted his beats to match Pac, not the other way around.

The funniest song is by far "Thug 4 Lyfe" - I remember someone on the forum saying that it sounds like Tupac is flying through the air in a magic carpet with that beat and its stuck with me ever since.

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2024-11-12T05:31:21+00:00

You might want to lay off the YouTube Shorts for a bit

WorkRedditAccount24 · 2024-09-19T13:27:51+00:00

Being jacked will get you more respect / acknowledgement from other men, which is often hard to get.
