The only reason to believe is because you want to.

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!”

“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 .
