You know that discourse on the Internet (which, for people/consumers, is part of their communication media diet, a relatively recent addition to the “legacy media” which involved only heavily-curated content) has diminished when a guy out there (presumably it’s a guy) who has chosen to present himself to the world as “poopfacelarry” with his Reddit handle gets offended to the point where he expresses his displeasure thusly:
“Yikes. Poor taste.”

Yes. “Yikes,” “Poor taste,” says poopfacelarry.
As far as I’m concerned, Reddit is best reserved for civil discourse. If the conversation on Reddit has degraded to the point where someone who presents himself to the world with an air of nihilistic irony feels that his moral sensibilities have been violated–maybe Reddit isn’t such a great thing?
Yikes indeed.
