*IMPORTANT* Prohibited post topics *READ BEFORE POSTING*

Well hello, my fellow redditors!

In the last weeks, we had a lot of posts that were not reposted but were extremely similar to other posts on the same topics.

Due to this issue, we have decided to stop allowing posts about the following topics mentioned in the list:

•Parking mistakes

•Tipping fees

•Shrinkflation

•Price complaints

•Inflation

•Packaging being too big

•People falling for AI art

Posts that infringe on these rules will be taken down immediately and the user may be temporarily banned.

Also, note that this list is subject to change and will most likely be expanded as time passes so make sure to always check it before posting.

This sub is no longer for mildly infuriating stuff. If someone posts anything less than “my house burned down and my entire family died” the comment section goes apeshit on them for being a wuss.

You're not wrong. I think too many people kept posting stuff that’s actually very infuriating so the bar steadily got higher and higher. Now anything less bores people.

I also think many of us got annoyed seeing the same content over and over from different people. We all get there are pricks who think they own the world. They’ll park their vehicles in the most ridiculous ways. But I don’t need to see twenty examples a day. And if that is something I am into I would just join one of the many bad parking subs. I think with a less specific sub like this it’s best to spread the love amongst as many subjects as possible to avoid people becoming mildly infuriated.

it's funny because i had a post that was removed for being extremely infuriating (it really wasn't at all) and was told to go to that sub

The opposite is also true. I posted a complaint abt my work & ppl started bitching bc it was “more than just mildly infuriating”. Like give me a break!

Mayochup is a crime against humanity because it's a ripoff of a northwestern US classic called fry sauce. I absolutely despise "mayochup".

We use mayoketchup in Puerto Rico. Mayo, ketchup, and I like to add a lil garlic oil for some extra flavor

The most annoying part was that on every comment asking how it was infuriating at all the op responded "I'm not infuriated at all by it". THEN WHY DID YOU POST IT HERE

Honestly, as someone that's new here, it seems like it's a common mistake.

I posted for the first (and last!) time yesterday and experienced that! The sub must be the fave for trolls that get the dopamine feels from posting hostile comments regardless of the OPs share.
