    Fuck I have never seen a bigger bunch of Laker and Kobe choad swallowers than these people. Say anything remotely negative about the Piss and Purple and you get downvoted to oblivion. Oh, and a shitton of Heat bandwaggoners, too.

    However, /r/ripcity is a nice little community.

    Yep, that's my attitude as well. I call out Laker douchebaggery and get downvoted to hell for it. Just makes my point all the more.

    People on that site can be so close minded. If you don't think like they think, they downvote the shit out of you. That hivemind spreads across the entire site, not just the front page. I like Reddit because I see things on there first, usually, before anywhere else. I know that news will be breaking there immediately, and it's a great place to rile people up about bad government.

    I also know that anything that appears on Reddit, will soon be posted on S2 by Sly :devilwink:

    I don't think he's discovered Gone Wild yet. He and Mags might start recruiting those chicks to come post here.

    Do you ever have a joke pop into your head, but you decide not to say it/post it because it would be mean? :lol:
