This post is the moment HN has jumped the shark for me. I don't understand the deep amount of insight I'll gain from a rant by a man doing his best to berate his "friend" over failing at certain things in life and talking about how he deserved to get kicked out in a manner that seems to be oddly reminiscent of mean girls? This isn't just limited to this post, but it is scattered through every thread I read these days. They tend to talk about stuff like harems and 4 out of 10 replies are just mean... There's no other word for it. It's almost as if most of the commenters these days don't have any insightful things to say, so they've turned commenting into a game of pulling other people down and proving them wrong instead of trying to add to a conversation and reaching an understanding. (that always used to happen to some extent, but now it's there in almost every thread I read and it's disturbing) I miss the real HN. :-(
