Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

Rules:

  1. Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
  2. Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
  3. No bigotry of any kind.
  4. Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
  5. If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
  6. Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

That is like 10 Years old. (I did not look it up) Can we not stomp on tiny mistakes from 10 years ago?

I'm sorry, but I disagree - sometimes things just qualify as classics, and also serve to act as warnings to future generations.

Any time there's a community with the same name as a subreddit, it gets filled with Reddit's Greatest Hits.

I know the whole "Lucky 1 in 10,000" thing but man, the Internet nowadays is mostly just buckets full of the same old memes other people made. Original content is so goddamn rare, especially memes.

This is not a complaint about OP, just a general observation
