Punctuation-free one-word posts so people can be involved without having to participate.

"Sexy sexers of Reddit, what's the sexiest sex you ever sexed?"

"AITA for saying a single unkind word to the man/woman who keeps me as a literal slave, beats old ladies and kicks puppies in the street?"

I honestly think some a-holes don’t know that they’re a-holes. Perhaps their parents coddled them or instilled it into them, but I think it’s good they find out that indeed, they are the butthole… (though, they should have a butthole icon or a * added to their user name as a reminder).

Yeah, that sub was much better when it was small and had a rule against obvious validation-seeking by people who already knew they were in the right.
