So far, the 21st century has been an exercise in expectation management. Once upon a time, there were predictions for flying cars, but instead what we received was all of this godforsaken mess. At least some good has come out of it, though, if you count the endless distractions provided by social media platforms as a good thing. It has to be said that Redditors seem to agree with that, and it's not difficult to see why. They are experts on almost every topic, and as a result, great sh*tposters about them too. Reddit is a treasure trove of premium internet weirdness if you care to look hard enough, but if you find yourself here you don't even have to. Below can be found a small range of the ridiculousness that goes on around the front page of the internet, and it is as varied as it is a welcome dose of entertainment.
