I originally posted the story simply as a link with no photos and it got hit with a downvote almost immediately, which I found strange. After about 30 minutes I simply deleted it and posted it as a photo series, popping the link down below in the comments. It got another downvote almost immediately.I noticed the default picture on Reddit is a weird one, maybe that is the problem?
I started to wonder if someone was just being toxic towards either me or you (??) and just let it ride. Last I checked it was up to 15 upvotes, so the community is drowning the dork(s) that were being jerks.
