I totally realize most people are going to disagree with me here but I feel compelled to say that closing the sub for a joke wasn't a very kind thing to do. We have seen TONS of posts from vulnerable populations talking about how this sub is a source of support and humor in a dark time. Irony and dirtbagism aside, taking away that support without warning was not okay.
You can say I'm being silly, or humorless or reactionary. Whatever. I love the show and I love this community. But sometimes I come home after dealing with ableism and our nightmare reality all day, and this sub is one of many things that make me feel better. It wasn't a good feeling to find this sub closed for the sake of irony. Maybe that's laughable or pathetic. But for me, it's true.
Feels weird seeing Early Zoomers taking over the Internet and posting nostalgia for the Late 00s-Early 10s, saying things like "Back in my day we had Minecraft and icarly, not Jake Paul and Fortnite", "2008-2014 was the golden age of music", "Chowder and Flapjack were the golden age of Cartoon network".
I distinctly remember that just a few years ago, that Late 00s-Early 10s stuff was widely considered the downfall into shit era.

1 snallygaster 2019-03-24
all you need to do now is steal some jokes about social anxiety and how depressed and hopeless you are and you'll blend right in!
