Reddit style humor is discouraged on hacker news. Comments that aren't thoughtful are also discouraged. I even think meta comments like this are discouraged.

- coherentpony 13y agoReddit-style humour? It was in reference to a film. I'm honestly flabbergasted. Oh HN, how you never fail to disappoint.
- CamperBob2 13y agoThe problem on Reddit isn't really the existence of lighthearted comments, but the fact that they inevitably get moderated to the top of the thread, obscuring more insightful comments. That's what they're trying to prevent here, I think. I wouldn't take it personally.
