So I was scrolling on Reddit, as one does, and I saw this post about a doghouse that got hit by a meteorite that somebody was auctioning off and it was expected to get $200,000.

OK cool. Then I went in the comments. And a lot of the comments were about whether or not the doghouse actually got hit by a meteorite or if somebody just picked up a rock? Was there any chemical analysis to prove it was a meteorite?

Anyway it just kind of dawned on me that that person was negging the original poster. I thought about it a little further and realized that a lot of Reddit post things putting down what others have posted. I started wondering whether for some people, is this all they’re capable of contributing , that they can’t post an individual thought that is unique, they have to build them selves up by putting others down? Made me think do these people neg damn near everything? Is this part of their personality? Or do they neg women as a tactic? Conscious or unconscious negging?

Thoughts? My take is that these are sad little people who suck joy from others but meh what do I know lol?

Anyway thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.
