Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

Usually I'm all for uncanny ugly stuff

But there is something so genuinely annoying about how they look that makes me cringe so hard its actually a visceral reaction. I don't know if it's because 90% of them make eye contact at the veiwer (my autism hates eye contact), or that most of them are such mean-spirited characatures (the anti-trans ones in particular) that it immediately disgusts me or what.

It's like I can smell the intent to manipulate with stereotypes and it immediately rage baits me.

It's not corny. It's authentic.

I don't think corny and authenticity are mutually exclusive, it can be both. Corny to me means 'sincere, a bit cliche' more than 'cringe'
