One has -45 and that was when I told someone, who I since blocked, that I wasn't going to look up something I knowingly talked about because of such thing existing. Which was knowing about Steam allowing people in the EU to re-sell their games. And they replied to my post being all like "SOURCE?" like as if it was some big fucking debate. Like dude, I wouldn't be saying shit if I knew what I was mentioning was a pure lie. I knew what I was talking about and people always think they're being coy by asking for sources and shit. I'm not here to hold your hand, the ball was in your court.
A lot of the other massively downvoted comments of mine, were just me responding to some of the low-life bastards that frequent some instances that come at me with their lame ass responses. Whom I also blocked because I'm not going to entertain their shit as long as they want me to. They just don't like people talking back to them.
The "source" request is also annoying because it's like, dude we're just chatting here, no I'm not going to respond like this is some academic debate.
When I read "source" it screams, "reality is apparently not reality unless a source that I like tells me so"
