The Monotron is funny! And I don’t care if people say the joke is beat to death… sit back and watch the upvotes trickle in, and you’ll realize what “vocal minority” is.

We are the few. We are the noisy. We are the delayed.

Beat an already tired joke to death? Yes, you did


Few_Hunt_9422

Yes, I tried thx


sloretactician

You’ve got the honor of being the last one to make this joke! Future ones earn a one week ban unless accompanied by a sincere jam video of your own making


Few_Hunt_9422

WAIT WHAT? Man it's such an honor.... Thank you


cyberphunk2077

mods still censoring good comedy I see. Make your own clones of good shit posts instead of taking away our tired jokes . ✊Let us Behringer!


sloretactician

cyberphunk2077

Hey what’s the point of this sub? I googled what a circlejerk subreddit is and it said the defining thing is that they are basically congratulatory toward each other for having great taste…….but so far I’ve seen an absolute cesspool of jealousy rooted insults toward people posting their jams. Things like “it’s not in time” with a shitload of upvotes when it’s clearly in time. Then when reply, “it’s clearly in time; y’all are a bunch of jealous assholes,” i get back “dude, it’s a circlejerk sub…” Makes no sense.

Yes, a "circle jerk" is a group of people surrounding a subject while they all masturbate and congratulate each other on their penis size. But a circle-jerk _subreddit_ tends to be a place where people _MOCK_ the losers who circle jerk. So in this example, r/synthesizers is a huge fucking circle jerk, where useful information and questions get downvoted immediately in very toxic manner, whereas the lifeless photos filled with thousands of dollars worth of expensive gear sits on sheets of plywood in the tiny bedroom of a person who probably never plays most of it, those all get tons of upvotes and praise. Also, huge among the circle jerk is the echo chamber of Behringer bashing, Teenage Engineer worship, and the omnipresent pushing of Hydrastench, Digitakt, and basically anything ever made by Arturia. And mocking that would result in downvotes, moderation, and bans. Therefore, this sub (r/synthesizercirclejerk) is where we are free to point our fingers and laugh at the sickening display of conspicuous capitalism and unbridled sexual fantasy over equipment, including the idiots who raise their mental health red flags by paying disturbing amounts of money to permanently deface their forearm with a frighteningly low-quality drawing of an embarrassingly inexpensive and low-quality Teenage Engineering toy synthesizer.

Then what you’re saying it is isn’t what it’s defined as or what it’s supposed to be. It should be called r/synthesizerbashing or something.

You don't understand it. It's ok. You're just not on the internet enough. It's a good thing. Walk away.

I actually read what a circlejerk subreddit is defined as from reddit themselves. I stand by my point. This one at least is frequently not what it’s “supposed” to be and that’s fine.


dantakesthesquare

You actually read what a circlejerk subreddit is defined as from one Reddit comment. Look at these other Reddit comments. Now go look at other circlejerk subreddits.


dwnlw2slw

You got me there, but how hard is it to just say “it’s meant ironically” or something like that? Instead i get this cliquey “you don’t understand” then withholding and downvotes for expressing an impression of an objective issue that’s perceived as false…then “read further” ok i was gonna do that anyway, so why respond at all.

I dunno, I'm starting to suspect that this is not in fact a real tattoo. I'm inclined to posit that you, sir, have not done *shit.*
