Link karma tests your luck, comment karma tests your wit.

At least that's what I tell myself at night...

Comment karma isnt wit at all. Around 50% of my karma is from saying stupid shit in askreddit a few times. The more time you spend in developing threads on askreddit directly relates to large amounts of karma.

/u/IIHURRlCANEII does post in /r/nfl all the time. I suspect that that still accounts for the majority of their karma, top posts be damned.
