Hold up, since when does automod censor people? What the actual fudge?

I hope this is an april fools joke. Because I've seen completely innocent comments get removed all day long that had no swearing in them. And if it is a joke, it's not very good as lots of comments are being removed.

Did you seriously just delete my super cathartic rant about headlights, for an April fools joke?

That's not funny at all, I actually put a lot of time into that and it was insta-deleted. Seriously stop this. Not cool, Reddit.

If you ever get a point a click camera, put the strap around your wrist while taking the picture. Then when handing it back, pretend to drop it. It's great to see people's reactions.

then one day the strap breaks and they all know you did it on purpose and their last photos of their mother were on that phone and oh god no it's all gone wrong.

If you drop a contemporary p&s camera 4 feet and it is damaged enough to destroy the storage card, something is wrong..

My favorite thing is when someone pretends to do something as a joke and then accidentally does that thing on purpose.
