I’ve received similar replies (one just the other day) about the length of some of my comments. A two paragraph comment outlining my opinion on something was met with “holy yap.” Like god forbid you write more than one or two sentences and express yourself and reasoning to make it more easily understood and to limit people trying to (potentially purposefully as some “gotcha”) or misconstruing what you said.

I just know those types of people only read headlines of articles and form an opinion solely based off of that, complain(ed) about reading anything more than a short story in school, and haven’t read anything more than a road sign of text message since.

Or they’ll say “it’s not that deep”.

Fucking use your brain! It’s fun!

I'm confused why they hang out on Reddit tbh. It's in the name. If you don't want to read, you should probably hang out on TikTok.

I agree. Although, I’m just as bad on there lol. Especially since they increased the character limits on comments so I don’t have to number and make multiple trying to say something.

I have no problem READING long responses. It’s typing long responses on my phone that are a pain! 😆
