In the early hours of April 1, the official Reddit Blog introduced The Button.
Cryptic words were given:
You may only press the button once. We can't tell you what to do from here on out. The choice is yours. visit /r/thebutton

Once visiting r/thebutton you are presented with the titular Button and a countdown clock measuring the nonexistent patience of reddit users.
As a regular subreddit, it also includes a list of voted topics, which is where things take the usual turn.
Because, you see, if you press The Button, you aren't simply left with The Shame. You are given a tiny bit of flair that will here on out, dictate all human relationships.
Here's a few more examples:
All the while /u/bealan has still NOT pressed The Button.
Maybe just hold your loved ones tight and pray The Button keeps getting pushed.
