    Downvotes are so funny.

    I’m mad at you, but can’t be bothered to articulate why. So I’m gonna click a button at you and hope it makes you feel bad.

    I don’t. It makes me feel schadenfreude, my good chum.

      Downvotes are for when i believe the argument is in bad faith to begin with, or feel the other will be unreceptive to criticism, and i have better things to do than internet argument.

      I hide comment scores with ublock origin. They just prevent real discussion. I also default sort by new, though I wish there were a random.

      and hope it makes you feel bad

      That’s not the point of downvotes. If you’re assuming people are downvoting you just to make you feel bad, you’re taking it way to personally.

      Upvotes are funny too. I like what you posted, but can’t be bothered to articulate why. So I’m gonna click a button at you and hope it makes you feel good.

        I’m upvoting you in hopes that it all goes to your head, inflating your ego and eventually leading to your downfall.

      I down voted your comment because it was terrible, don’t care if you feel bad or not.
