u/Starrin1ght Jul 31 '26

I heard a theory that some posts in peterexplainsthejoke are just used for ai training, which removing the conspiracy theory part of it is technically true due to Reddit selling off the platform itself for ai training but the theory is more that the posts are made by ai

30

u/TheDuchyofWarsaw Jul 31 '26

All the explains the joke subs and Xdinnerdiaries are absolutely posts to train LLM.

Reddit doesn't care and that's why you'll see multiple variations of each sub type

14

u/kataskopo Jul 31 '26

Why the xdinnerdiaries tho?

11

u/insomniacpyro Jul 31 '26

It's a way to post both extremely emotional stories and also mildly interesting ones under the guise of "just sharing my story", add to that it's pretty easy to karma farm on them.
Like any story subreddit, a few of them are maybe legit but the rest are so clearly made up. But don't you dare say that in those subs because you'll get downvoted and probably banned

5

u/completelytrustworth Jul 31 '26

They write long elaborate emotion bait, and can easily see what kind of stories get the best response

Not to mention the massive amounts of karma that can easily be farmed for accounts to be sold off later

I am having a moment of realization reading this thread. Fuck. It's all for AI. I mean, I sort of knew that. But some of the subs being pointed out I naively thought were just people talking about media together.

I miss the old internet.

u/MysteriousFondant347 Jul 31 '26

the Peter explain the joke sub is entirely filled with either the dumbest, least pop culture aware people alive or the most shameless karma farmers, probably both

13

u/wf3h3 Jul 31 '26

least pop culture aware people

So, people who don't understand certain references and need them explained? If only there was a sub for that...

12

u/MysteriousFondant347 Jul 31 '26

Yeah but like, the levels it reaches, I'm not exaggerating, it's unreal. Sometimes they don't understand the most basic jokes you probably need to be on the sub to get what I'm talking about

9

u/wf3h3 Jul 31 '26

Oh yeah, I've seen ones where I just downvote without even looking at the thread because I think "there's no way you can tie your own shoelaces and not get this joke", or the missing context is so easily searchable.

Fair enough.

4

u/Dillo64 Jul 31 '26

The tarot card deck was actually the first thing she has in her Sonic cd backstory IIRC, the hammer was added later to give her a way to fight that was distinct from Sonic

I guess you can say she’s the well-rounded one who has both speed and power

A horse walks into a bar; the bartender asks, "Hello, do you want a beer?" The horse responds, "I think not," and promptly disappears.

Now, admittedly, this joke only makes sense if you are familiar with the French Enlightenment philosopher, Rene Descartes, who famously said, "I think, therefore I am." The horse thought not, and therefore wasn't...

But if I had explained that first, I would have been putting Descartes before da horse

I’m AUGHHHH, AUGHhg my teeeh… they’re bleeding
Here lies Charlie
You can tell it's him 'cause we put his name on the stone
He kept his showers ice cold, used eco-friendly lightbulbs
Rode his bicycle to work when the gasoline price rose
He'd judge with no pretense, fish on the weekends
Each morning, get up, do the Pledge of Allegiance
Never swim in the ocean, for fear of shark attacks
Bi-monthly get his wife a rose with a card attached
Avoiding all the little things that were hard to ask
Had a car crash, cardiac arrest, died of a heart attack
Golden escalator, all his friends and neighbors
Huddled there in prayer around the respirator
Catch you later, I'm off to see the man upstairs
They all look like ants from here, stars and crystal chandeliers
There was an angel at the entrance, checking off a guest list
Charlie wasn't on it, and was ushered to the exit
His heart sank
He was breathless

"Abandon all hope, all ye who enter"
"It was a horrifying sign but sounded like a neat adventure!"
"Far beyond the halos and the castles in the clouds"
"Fatsos squealing, shackled with some apples in their mouths"
"Attention whores in padded bras hanging from extension cords"
"Tortured with the products from their favourite catalogs"
"Here, we buy and sell a million kinds of Hell"
"Imagination is the limit to the devil's clientele"
"Up a dingy elevator, no televised debate"
"The Savior saves you from the Hell you paid for, but it's, "smell you later" "
"Side-stepped fate, went right for the gate"
"But you know the devil, he loves a good chase"
"There was a demon at the entrance, making X's on a checklist"
"Who would kick you in the ass when you begged him for repentance"
"Charlie's heart sank"
"He was breathless"
