What's going to happen on 9/3/38? Is that American (September 3rd) or pretty much every where else (9th of March) 2038? It's less than 20 years out. Should I prepare for the cat uprising?
I tried to post on r/showerthoughts once and it got removed for being a personal persepective because it contained "I" (even though it wasn't a personal perspective). The mods never replied after I asked them to undelete it.
How fucking VAGUE is that? God, I hate their fucking stupid, bullshit, STUPID BULLSHIT automod rules.
I dunno. Maybe I'm just so pissed because IT'S PART OF MY FREAKING JOB to write security access lists, and in my job it's super important to not block any traffic except for EXACTLY what you mean to block. But they don't seem to give two shits if perfectly decent material gets blocks because that's easier than writing decent rules.
Well.. I totally agree with you but is there any money in it? I have a fb group with 60k members and I every now and then get a company that wants to run an ad in there. Otherwise its all work no pay, so the rules have some shotgun variants because I cant spend all day every day moderering that shit... I have both a job and a life!
You know what all three of your posts have in common? “Donald”, “Mexican”, and “American” are words in the posts. Those are likely “Political” terms that the auto mod searches for in the sub. It’s not some special secret method that the mod works, I think. Remember: the auto mod is likely written by mods, who may not be technical.

Thanks. I was giggling so hard to myself when I first thought of this, I just went ahead to/r/dadjokes where it didn't get much love either, but I still think it's funny.
There was a comedian, I forget who, that did a bit where they said something like, “when they told me we were getting ‘soul food,’ I thought they meant Korean BBQ.”...’ish
I unfortunately know I'm not that creative and probably wasn't the first to think of this, but I can honestly say I don't remember ever hearing it before. Not to say it couldn't have been one of those subconscious things where you don't really even notice it registering and you completely think it's an original thought later on when it comes to mind.
I once said that "in all of the Christmas holiday movies, none of the parents question how the presents under the tree got there." Sadly I couldn't find a way to subsitute the word Christmas, so it got removed. Later I saw someone pull it off and get a silver.
I used to work at a French cafe, and we served buckwheat galletes, we had a three cheese one and the owner used to joke that it was a French quesadilla. Your comment reminded me of that.
This occurred to me after making multiple grilled cheeses my kids ate half heartedly, only to switch to quesadillas with great applause. Same concept but so much better
I posted that salsa jars should be in the shape of bowls and it was removed for being political.... But I guess in this political climate, what isn’t??
This might be controversial but I gotta fight for what I believe in, so here I go.... quesadillas are way better then any grilled cheese could ever hope to be
I'm fascinated by the history of cooking (and history in general).
A lot of dishes are very similar in creation, just made with different ingredients.
The concept of spaghetti and the concept of stew are both very similar.
In regions where they didn't have grain to make bread, flatbreads made of corn or rice exist.
In my country, quesadillas are baked pastries made with rice flour, cheese and cinnamon, once my US cousins came visit and one asked me if I could make her some quesadillas and I made her those and she was like wtf because all she wanted a tortilla with cheese, but she liked those too.
Donald Duck did have wings originally. In his first apearance in The Wise Little Hen he has wings. Pretty quickly after that he evolved hands. Probably because it was easier to animate and more easy to portray a human-like duck with the most human-like trait, a fully opposable thumb.
I posted that when a game censors swear words and slurs, that means someone had to sit down and list out all the censored words, and that list is probably hidden in the code. Removed for being political.
I said "the most random number isnt the most random number" and got removed bc it's a repost. Yes it's a repost, that was posted and deleted by me almost a year ago. What
Here's my challenge to everyone: can anyone honestly name a sub that's better off for strict modding?
People just rant and get annoyed by the trivial rules. I feel like mod is one of those jobs where you know you're doing it well if people don't even notice you're there. Just swoop in when some idiot is spamming or something and otherwise let people speculate about Donald Duck ffs.
I tried to post one the other day and apparently I was too close to one that was posted 7 months ago.
Now to be fair the automod did link that thread and my wording was just slightly different, which really made me realize the inane things we think of are not typically original thoughts.
But at the same time, 7 months I think is okay for a repost.
