How do you spot a Redditor in any social media?

[Open-Source Dodonpachi]

Doesn't matter if it's youtube, instagram, any other website or even Kiwifarms. How do you identify a redditor? What are the patterns?

How do you identify a redditor?

they ask questions like this

 

[Catler]

Reddit spacing/formatting.

 

[AnsemSoD1]

I literally can't even.

 

[Ewan McGregor]

I just sharted in my chair

 

[MrTroll]

tl;dr, eli5 please?

That's more of an algorythm slave than a redditor. I have a better one- they will jack off over the service industry and treat waiters like some sort of a protected class. You see them acting like this about blacks and fags and whatnot, but I find it the most curious that waiters of all things have made it up there as well. If you wind up on a discussion about rude restaurant staff anywhere, the redditor will always start off their post with how much they treat the wait staff with respect and always tip generously, before actually stating any point they tried to make.

 

[Bubble Ba'ath]

The post will begin with: 'Eh'

The post will include: 'Yikes'

There are three things all Redditors have in common

1) They have an IQ in the range of one SD below the population average.
2) They are extremely pedantic, they always try to go off on tangents irrelevant to the discussion at hand or correct you on something inconsequential. They think the pinnacle of intelligence is when they recall a factoid they read somewhere that's vaguely related to the discussion.
3) They are confidently incorrect. They make incorrect statements with complete confidence they are correct, even when they could fact check themselves easily with a google search. If you call them out for this and explain that they are wrong, they will deflect and claim they meant something else. They think they "win" the argument by stubbornly refusing to give any ground to the opponent, even when doing so makes them look stupid and hypocritical.

 

[I've Seen Some More Shit]

Say nigger and see how they react

 

[HyperboreanRightsActivist]

If they have a kiwifarms account

 

[Bargain Bin Laden]

Ask them if they are a redditor

 

[WTBOnlineFather]

1. they overexplain everything autistically using unnecessarily big words
2. they use reddit spacing even when typing short lines
3. they will do shit like abandon a civil discussion just to berate you for having imperfect grammar
4. they use very specific redditisms such as "As a X, I..." or emulate the behavior of reddit bots
5. they look like this when they do any of the above:

 

[SandyCat]

The post will begin with: 'Eh'

The post will include: 'Yikes'

Eh, lets unpack this. Not all Reddit folx are like this. It's a hurtful stereotype and as we've clearly seen with racial stereotypes they are are always incorrect, hurtful, bigoted and often fascist in nature so that's going to be a a big yikes from me. Do better.

Edit: spelling
Edit 2: Thanks for the gold, kind stranger! My wife's boyfriend is so happy for me!

 

[Blamo2000]

I disagree with them.

What exactly is reddit spacing?

What exactly is reddit spacing?

When you separate two paragraphs with a double newline, like this.

I actually think that it's more readable, and retards who sperg about double spaced paragraphs need to be shot. It actually comes from old reddit formatting where two newlines makes one newline appear in the finished post, whereas imageboards don't do this, hence the origin of the meme.

 

[Amerikaner Teddybär]

They'll tell you but some signs to look out for are as follows:

1. Pedantry, Redditors are well know for this.
2. Confidence in their answer being right even if their outright wrong. Basically the Dunning-Kruger Effect in action.
3. Brag about their intellect even if they've shown to be not as bright as they think they are.
4. Fat, this one's a given.
5. Probably has a distain for Christianity but not Judaism or Islam.

I'm not a native English speaker, but isn't that the correct way to write a new paragraph?

Lol. English isn't my first language either, but I think he is referring about being cynical over it. If I'm not wrong redditors tend to seethe and lose their temper over grammar mistakes. They can even get to put an entire "well structured" essay as an argument to your one line comment only to make a point, respecting their writing layouts. If you don't give a shit about those rules, then your probabilities of being a redditor, lowers.
