Ya that is one of the reasons I decided to stop. I thought back to when I first started using Reddit a couple years ago. What made it an awesome place was smart content and interesting people. Now I just go there to be entertained in the same manor as watching Jackass. I don't think I can put it any better than junk food for the brain. That's really what it feels like. It's like my brain grew, but with a whole bunch of useless shit.
