Not a huge fuck up but still kind of weirded out. So a few days ago, I got stoned and I stumbled upon this subreddit r/FYCOD_II and proceeded to go down this rabbit hole of bizarre posts and even more bizarre members. You know how sometimes you see things that aren't there? I really spent hours upon hours looking at the post history of the members, trying to connect the dots that probably are not even there. This all culminated to the point where I messaged a few of the members trying to figure out what the heck I was even reading. Well, the further in I went, the more I felt like I was going insane. And then, some of the members began responding to my messages, like all is normal, and I began to feel even more weirded out. I know there are a lot of random subreddits out there that don't mean much, but this one for some reason just sucked me in. Anyways, after doing some more digging I learn that - they are just Reddit bots. I've wasted all this time investigating a bunch of bots, thinking their gibberish was some massive puzzle to be solved.

TL;DR I spent hours deep diving into a subreddit and it's members, trying to piece together a puzzle, only to realize I was interacting with bots.
