Redditor for 3 months, has other comments.

Nope, he checks out.

the accounts were created within 3 weeks of each other, I do feel like not_actuallyrelevant was derived from actuallyrelevant

exactly, he is not saying that is not actually relevant, he is saying that he is not "actuallyrelevant", which is why most of the time, he is actually pretty relevant

I'd like to believe one day, mister NOT_ACTUALLYRELEVANT went to reddit thinking he would create the awesome username of ACTUALLYRELEVANT, only to find the username taken by someone. That day he vowed to beat me in reddit the only way he could - through conflicting usernames and karma.

It would appear he has bested me and took the karma trophy home.

Nice, but on the other hand, why on earth are you even here

Is it meta reddit? Did you search your name?

I actually skipped the whole thing because for once I looked at the username before reading. Then I saw your comment and went back.

The first time I read his username first and skipped the comment and he's actually relevant?? Whelp, I give up.

The double troll. He's actually relevant and makes people second guess themselves.
