I'm really going to miss anime_titties; for anyone that doesn't know, it was a wildly inappropriately named serious subreddit focused on interesting, relevant, unbiased world news that actually affected people.
Can't remember if that was a takeover like pocketpussy or just named like that from the start, but I'd actually heard of it.
Interesting phenomenon. As were rimjob_steve and floridaman.
Looks like it was a response to world news being unmoderated, and a bunch of anime titties being posted. But man, the funny response sub was so much more laser focused on relevant issues and articles without a slant.
Btw, Florida man only became a thing because nobody was ever taught about the sunshine laws. Those stats in Florida crime weren't different from everywhere else, you're just allowed access to court and police records down there.
