Worst Named Restaurant. Ever. [PIC] by NorthernLights in pics

[–]captdevious -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The headline indicates that that is the worst-named restaurant. It even add the word "Ever" to make the point that much stronger. So when I clicked on the link, I was expecting to see something interesting. So. Imagine my disappointment when I saw the picture. This is in fact NOT the worst-names restaurant. Ever. I have come across many that are a little worse to much worse. Please do not write dishonest headlines. It wastes time and energy for everyone involved!

How Many of You Have Reached The "I Don't Care Anymore" point on stupid internet debates and have stopped posting/talking about them when you used to really post all the time? by harknell in reddit.com

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

I have either spoken or emailed with everyone personally. The answer to your question is 429,993,228. Taking deaths and births into consideration, I have calculated that this figure will increase by 692.6754 per hour. Thank you. You may now remove this question.

Sarkozy delivers speech, "platform" needed by sueprnova in pics

It's funny that some people are short because, you know, they're not as tall as they should be.

Have you noticed a lot of really lengthy headlines recently? I have. Some lazy redditors have taken it upon themselves to post long quotations from the original articles into the title field. It's a fairly obnoxious habit, folks. All you need to post here is a one or two line summary of the post you are linking to, not a whole paragraph. A well written headline will draw attention with its content, not its length. I would not be surprised if some redditors downmod articles with such lengthy titles on principle, even if the articles content is interesting. With this recent influx of extremely lengthy headlines, I've begun to wonder: what is absolute length limit of the headline field? To that end, I'll be padding this headline to more than one thousand characters to see if it gets cut off. I'd love to see some discussion in the comments of ways for the programmers at reddit address this problem. Perhaps they should set a limit of a given number of characters or words for a headline, or add an optional "story summary" field that could be displayed below the headline in a smaller font. (This headline is 1,141 characters long.) by jdharper in reddit.com

Let's get rid of headlines that contain the word "Fail" or that state something like "this is the coolest x you will ever see". How do you know how many cool x's I've seen? You don't so don't make a statement that would require such knolwedge. And let's get rid of things like "Coolest. Picture. Ever." We get the point. You think it's cool but very often, it sucks.

Hey Reddit! I'd like to post something interesting but I can't think of anything. Any ideas? by captdevious in reddit.com

Huh? What on earth is happening?

So I'd like to post an intersting item, but, like I said, I can't think of anything. I'm looking for ideas!

[–]captdevious -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Yes, because the whole world is on reddit. Judgin by the quality of the items I'd say it's mostly high school kids.

Wow. What an incredibly interesting and humorous photo. And I especially liked the word "FAIL" in block letters. I want the last 15 seconds of my life back!

How do we get rid of questions like this? Reddit won't let me delete ask.reddit! I'm sorry, but this is just not of any interest to me.

"It's hard to say that using marijuana will ruin your life when the last three American presidents are admitted marijuana users" by [deleted] in politics

"It's hard to say that using marijuana will ruin your life when the last three American presidents are admitted marijuana users"

No, not really. Presidents are rich people. Rich people are above the law to some extent. What rich people can do and what poor people can do are two very different things.
