Lemmy comments do come off as incredibly pedantic sometimes, especially when you point out an observation about something and people feel the need to reply in paragraphs about the topic, as if you never actually understood it to begin with.

Um ackshually ๐Ÿค“

The reason people on Lemmy do that is because everybody on Lemmy is just an idiot, except me of course - I am not an idiot. So that's why I reply with multiple paragraphs over minor things.

See, replying to people with long winded ranty, over pedantic messages is likely to make them realise they're actually an idiot and don't know what they're talking about. Regardless of whether all the posted is just a 1 sentence meme referencing the OP, and, say, the office, it's just not good enough. They need to learn to be smarter.

So in closing, the reason this always happens to you and all the other lemmings here is because I'm actually smarter than you lot are actually. If you just started prefacing your jokes with 47 paragraphs of explanatory text, clearly explaining that you actually aren't an actual idiot this wouldn't actually happen to you anymore.

Git gud
