My fish Josh identifies as a guppy. Doctors assigned him shark at birth, but he has had numerous experimental surgeries to affirm his identity as a guppy. We’ve had issues with other fishes swimming into Josh’s stomach and sometimes people get micro aggressive about it - therefore Josh has decided up protect fishself and Comments on this post have been limited.

You know I've already addressed that.
Hym "YOU KNOW and I KNOW... That I would not read a SINGLE MOTHERFUCKING COMMENT if you could comment on this. NOT A SINGLE ONE, EVER! I would leave them on just to make you feel better. Just being you idiots all need to FEEL IMPORTANT but I would never actually taint my own psyche by filling my head with inferior thoughts by reading your comments. You want to comment on some shit go to YouTube. Where are you right now, bitch? Is this YouTube? No! You're not ON YouTube right now. And do you know WHY you're not on YouTube right now? BECAUSE I'M NOT ON YOUTUBE MOTHERFUCKER!"

Commentpost

The act of posting comments on social media platforms—Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, YouTube, etc.—not to contribute to discussion but to provoke reactions, express disagreement, engage in debatebait, gather screenbait, or simply display ignorance. Commentposts are the background noise of the internet: thousands of them, every second, designed to do nothing but occupy space and attention. Some commentposts are sincere (the user genuinely believes what they say); most are performance (the user is playing a role for an audience); many are bait (the user wants to provoke a response). Commentposting has become the default mode of online interaction, replacing conversation with combat, exchange with escalation. The commentpost is the atom of the internet—small, numerous, and often toxic.
Example: "She posted a photo of her cat. Within hours, there were forty-seven commentposts: three about the cat's cuteness, two about the lighting, and forty-two arguing about whether cats should be indoors or outdoors. None of the arguers knew each other; none would change their minds; all had successfully turned a cat photo into a battlefield. Commentposting had done its work: turning everything into argument."

Commentbait

A form of commentpost specifically designed to generate more comments—controversial opinions, inflammatory statements, deliberately ignorant questions, or "hot takes" crafted to provoke outrage and engagement. Commentbait is the engine of platform engagement metrics: the more comments, the more the algorithm promotes the post, the more comments it generates. Commentbaiters don't care what you say, as long as you say something. They're not trying to convince or communicate; they're trying to capture attention, generate metrics, and feed the machine. Every "unpopular opinion" thread, every "am I the only one who..." post, every deliberately wrong answer on a help forum—commentbait, all of it. The commentbaiter has learned that engagement is its own reward, and that the best way to get engagement is to make people angry enough to type.
Example: "The post was simple: 'The earth is actually flat and here's why.' No evidence, no argument, just a claim designed to trigger. And trigger it did—thousands of comments, millions of views, days of engagement. The poster never responded to any of it. They didn't need to. Commentbait had worked: the algorithm loved it, the platform promoted it, and the poster walked away with the only currency that matters—attention."

Comments are the little crowdsourced rectangles below content that contains short, opinionated text. OR 12TB opinionated mountains of text. Apparently Urban Dictionary took care of that "problem."

Nowww All those Hilarious Zingers that stretch across the Urban Horizon no longer have 'comeback' humor. But to be fair, this is SUPPOSED to be some kind of dictionary and not a Big Ol' Glorified Twitter.
