I haven't watched a single one, but they're still über annoying just by being in the newsfeed.

Meh. I'm sure you'll somehow overcome it.

can someone give a quick explanation of what exactly reddit is?

[Munson]

Basically a giant internet message board filled with nerds of all ilks. There's a "subreddit" (specific message board) for nearly everything you can think of, and many different subreddits dedicated to the same subject sometimes, just with a different name. It can be a good place to find news or info, but also can do some zesty things (like accuse the wrong people of being the Boston bombers last year)

One other thing:  Reddit is not social media.  It's just a gargantuan constellation of messageboards.

Quite certain that message boards are a form of social media or social media is a form of a message board. Worst case scenario they are cousins.

We might as well re-name the United States "New England" because that is the reality of things.

[Diomedes]

If only the rest of the country were like New England...then I wouldn't be so f'n embarrassed to be from here.
