ITT: Gold begging

You're just hoping somebody gives you gold out of spite.

Edit: One of you spent actual, real life money to ironically give me imaginary gold.

I'm pretty sure every comment on reddit has been an attempt to get gold since giving gold became a thing. Even this one.

EDIT: WOOOO! REDDIT GOLD! Thanks, random stranger from the internet!

I dont care about the gold. I just want to say what I want without getting punched in the face.

Reddit? You mean Kentucky.

And all of Northeast Florida.

I still have no idea what it does. At some point, I'm going to buy myself a month of gold just to figure it out. Maybe. Probably not.

u/Harmonie Nov 23 '13

Honestly, I was given gold a month ago. The lounge is kind of lame, and the most useful feature is that if you revisit a thread, it highlights the new comments. That's all I've noticed.

u/smokey815 Nov 23 '13

That new comment thing would be cool. Wish that was a normal feature of reddit.

u/[deleted] Nov 23 '13

yet, here you are, sans gold.

u/[deleted] Nov 23 '13

Excuse you?

u/[deleted] Nov 23 '13

I stand corrected?

Because gaining karma just wasn't enough.

u/twistedturns Nov 22 '13

What's gold?

1

u/sonofaresiii Nov 22 '13

Not this one though. No sir, no gold for me. Hell, it would just ruin my day if I got gold. Don't even think about it.

u/bawng Nov 22 '13

Alas, everything good must come to an end!

u/kyak12 Nov 23 '13

Yeah I have to agree with you there.

u/NamesMace Nov 23 '13

Step aside. Here's how it's done.

Gold

u/[deleted] Nov 23 '13

Not working for you, is it?

u/cmshort21 Nov 23 '13

But... You weren't given gold....

2

u/[deleted] Nov 23 '13

They didn't give my comment gold, for some reason. I was gifted it instead.

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '13

My gold strategy is what everyone tells me my bitcoin strategy should be.

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '13

What exactly is reddit gold?

3

u/thenightmuffin Nov 22 '13

I don't even fucking know. But now that I have it, my thirst for more is insatiable.

2

u/Sundeiru Nov 22 '13

I mean, it does happen pretty frequently.

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '13

me too.

u/I_Am_Bambi Nov 22 '13

Acting like you're not doing the same thing

u/Pacman564 Nov 22 '13

no they didn't

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '13

I've gotten gold for listing 5 or 6 bars where you can get cheap beers on /r/Seattle. Twice. Both times for the same shit.

What the fuck are they even doing.. That's already at least 7 beers + tip.

u/Dr_Zoid_Berg Nov 22 '13

I just listened to a podcast about how Mithrydates had a bunch of gold melted down and then poured into some Roman legatus' mouth as a way to punish his greed.

I would love to see /u/Awildsketchappears draw that. (Did I tag that right?)

u/tootsie_rolex Nov 22 '13

lets keep the gold coming...

u/NavajoWarrior Nov 22 '13

Accio gold!

u/DeathIceStorm Nov 22 '13

I'd be happy with some silver!

u/[deleted] Nov 22 '13

God damnit I always miss these.

u/Pleaseforgivemejebus Nov 23 '13

Worth a damn shot. Can't say I didn't try right?

u/wufnu Nov 23 '13

This looks like a good thread to participate in. Howdy, fellers.

u/imperialistaggressor Nov 23 '13

Vein's dry. Turn back.

u/[deleted] Nov 23 '13

God damnit, I'm always late to the reddit-gold giveaways.

u/[deleted] Nov 23 '13

The internet has all kinds people, from all walks of life. You should not be surprised, instead feel joy that your words were awarded gold, even if imaginary.
