I love how in these examples it’s always “for no reason“ and yet we never see the context.

[-] schmidtster@lemmy.world -2 points 1 year ago

Well it’s for no real good reason I should say, why is it always just the fourth comment in a chain that gets downvoted, because of the tropes and circlejerks.

[-] hoodatninja@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Sorry I’m having a little trouble following. Are you asking me or are you stating that?

[-] schmidtster@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

Expanding on some needed context I thought. Or were you agreeing that sometimes there is seemingly no reason?

Now I’m confused.

[-] hoodatninja@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

I was just trying to understand how you wanted me to respond to that comment, nothing nefarious or anything. You had a “why“ statement with no ? then a statement after, so I was just trying to make sure I was understanding you correctly and respond appropriately and such. Just your typical “lost in translation“ with text formats.

Ah, sorry that makes sense now, was asking a rhetorical question and answering it. There is of course a reason, but that reason may just be silly, so to a large portion of people it would be for seemingly no reason.

Covering all bases, and yes it would be confusing, that’s kinda the point, since there really isn’t a reason for some of the mass downvotes.
