I hope to see less song lyric comment chains on completely unrelated posts. Also I don't know why, but I always hated the whole, 'my partner, let's call them blank (not real name)' thing.

The thing about comment chains is you can collapse them so don't see anything wrong. Let people have their fun and sense of connection with strangers on the internet.

True you can, it's a very small issue. The problem is they were always at or near the top. One chain isn't that bad, but seeing it over and over again on interesting posts gets old fast.

I'm guessing we'll see less song lyric stuff due to the lack of karma. Those threads were basically only good for harvesting free upvotes.
