I don't know whether to blame this on reddit, toxic masculinity, or plain old British culture, but it seems that men on the internet will take absolutely anything as a sign of weakness, which means you don't deserve their help.
If you don't know the answer, just say so, don't be a little bitch about it and tell me to give up.
Can't believe I made an account for this.
Some time ago, before all the machine-written articles took over, if you tried to google for just about any cooking advice in my native language, you would always get a forum thread where the first three comments were old men berating the OP for even daring to ask the question, as if everyone was just born with the knowledge of how many potatoes go into a soup
Insist on the wrong answer so that they feel like they must correct you.
I had to leave Reddit because it muddied my perception of humanity. They really will turn even the most trusting person into a misanthrope, and they don't even try to. That's just the way Redditors are. It's in their nature just like fish swimming, squirrels climbing trees, and pigeons flying.
I used to scroll r/all all the time before the API debacle and I thought it was okay until I saw it without my massive filter list I'd been building for almost a decade.
Yeah it gets ok after about a year of blocking subs which suck more than average, but I deleted my account after getting sucked into one to many stupid arguments and now going on raw r/all just instantly fills me with a mix of anger and despair.
I accidentally pressed r/all and it immediately made me alt-f4 because jesus fucking christ.
its so funny that when I first found reddit in 2011 I was always frustrated by how fucking positive everyone was all the time, even if it was a LARP
Thanks for gold kind stranger!

Sounds like the majority of men in the American South. First time I ever heard that liking to cook or bake meant you were gay according to them
No one wants you to know this, but your high school home ec class made you gay.
Mine didn't work :( I didn't become gay NOR get a gf...
But I can make a delicious batch of cheddar biscuits so I got that going for me
