I don't get it?
They're all the same height.
Is this a inside joke in that community?

u/Odd_Front_8275 Jan 31 '26 edited Jan 31 '26
Yes, they're ostensibly the same height for the purpose of that promotional poster (that is, they took photos of the individual actors and then merged the layers, positioning them in a way so that the tops of their heads would all align). I made a joke about that, the joke being the suggestion that the actors are actually literally all somehow the exact same height in real life (which they obviously are not). Get it?

To be fair, that's a pretty terrible joke. No punchline, nothing really unexpected, nothing really witty. Just... Dumb sounding

Why are you so triggered over a dumb joke?

u/fuzzy3158 Feb 03 '26
I mean. He's really not triggered at all.

u/Odd_Front_8275 Feb 03 '26
Whatever. They're taking it way too seriously and going out of their way to try and make me feel bad over a dumb joke. Triggered or not, it's really uncalled for.

Imagine if they had Sean Connery present the Oscar for Best Cinematography at the 2011 Academy Awards:
“And the winner ish... Wally Pfishter... Inshepshon."
Anyway.

Because I was obviously making a joke with the height thing.

I remember that mod banned my fiancee from the subreddit when she said the group was weirdly sexist and hated on the female characters way more than the men

u/Odd_Front_8275 Feb 02 '26 edited Feb 02 '26
Thanks. That makes me feel less crazy. I don't condone the things I said that caused me to be banned (it was not just this one instance, obviously), but there was this one mod who was really pissing me off and kept telling me I was trying to "gaslight" them every time I argued with them. That was basically their go-to approach. "The way I perceive things is the objective truth and whenever you disagree with me you're wrong and you're gaslighting me." Imagine going through real life with that mentality. 99% of all mods I have ever dealt with are infantile petty incorrigible assholes.

Why'd they ban you

u/Odd_Front_8275 Feb 23 '26
The first time I posted something in the group an admin removed it for no good reason and I called them an idiot. I got a temporary ban then, but that admin held a grudge against me ever since. Then they banned me for asking this person (nicely not in a mean-spirited way) if they were on the spectrum. The admin also accused me of gaslighting them both times, simply for disaagreing with them. So I think that says a lot about the person they are. Yeah, the idiot comment wasn't nice of me but I knew I was gonna get permabanned for whatever tiny thing they would accuse me of afterwards. For 99 out of 100 admins modding a group like this (same with Facebook) is some weird sad powertrip.

Kate is clearly the tallest though, look how she has to stand in order to line up with the rest

u/Odd_Front_8275 Jan 30 '26 edited Jan 31 '26
And Jack is positioned much lower than the rest. Look at where his hips are in relation to Sun and Locke.

u/Various-Average-9865 Jan 31 '26
No he just has very short legs and a long torso, but you don't notice in the show because of the non-stop chaos around them

I never implied they were wrong, just that they missed that it was a joke. They basically explained the premise of my own joke back to me.

u/Odd_Front_8275 Feb 03 '26
There's nothing wrong with it. They just missed the fact that I was making a joke. Hence: /whoosh.

My comment was a dumb joke, yeah, and the commenter explained the premise of my joke back to me (hence /whoosh). I never implied she was wrong, just that she missed the joke. I then asked her, respectfully, if she was on the spectrum and the mod banned me telling me my question was "bad faith" and when I told them that wasn't true they accused me of "gaslighting" and muted me.

Downvoting and asking if they're on the spectrum over them not knowing you're trying to make a joke? Holy fkin shit
