For example, people on Reddit asking redundant questions and give equally redundant or unhelpful answers.

Whenever every ‘What’s the worst show you’ve seen?’ is asked, you’ll get 10,000 “Kardashians” answers, which is just easy karma farming.

If someone posts in a community that’s geared for something like opinions, but someone elects to just go on a full scale rant instead.

    Think of it like this. When humans talk to humans, is any joke ever obligatory? It’s “that’s what she said” any time anything vaguely prurient gets mentioned.

    Now imagine if they said “I’m obligated to tell you that’s what she said.” Do you see how they’ve added a tragic undercut to a comment that already wasn’t funny?

    People should not do this.
