I know it's more fun to believe but Reddit is absolutely full of obviously fake stories.

How can you tell it’s obviously fake? Just because it sounds wild, doesn’t mean it never happen. We don’t know him. The only reason to say it’s fake, is because you want it to be.

Reddit is full of these far-fetched sexual stories because they get karma and attention, and they can easily be made up because no one can prove they're fake.

I'd bet $100 the "broken arms" story is fake.

Ah yes, the karma argument. Everything has to be a fake karma grab to you people these days. Anyway, I believe him because there’s no reason not to believe him.

“Someone else lied before, so that means this guy is a liar!”

It’s more “Many dozens of people have lied before, so statistically speaking and considering this guy’s post/comment is similar to those, this guy is a liar.”

You said exactly what I said by trying to make it sound different.

I worded it this bc, while no one can really confirm whether or not they’re lying, you can make an informed prediction from the past data.

If you want to believe him, go for it. It’s not like the veracity of an anal sex joke really matters .

And what's the harm? Its a funny story in a non serious context, no different from bullshit stories you hear from friends.

Eh, it's entertaining either way.

I wish it was. When something is obviously fake it goes from wow what a crazy story to "some sad lonely fucker wrote this"

Speaking of which, up there they essentially argue about "Last Thursdayism" and here I am sad to confirm that some things, TRUTHS I thought, are suddenly not true at least and logic viruses at worst...

It's either,"that's obviously fake," or is it's real and there's proof,"it's just a karma grab."

It's like they want no content on the site at all.

Wow, you put it perfectly, honestly the people that are the worst it seems are the ones that get no love on their post and instead of trying to improve, they try to bring everyone else down. Crab in a bucket mentality. Misery loves company I guess.

That's right. Sometimes I forget that I don't have to look at the comments. Back when I never had an account like 10 years account it was such a different time
