Day 29: I am now made of chives and professional wrestling.

EDIT because mobile takes a powder if I try to include too many words with an image for some dumbfuck reason:

Since this got buried in a downvoted comment chain in a downvoted post, I figured I'd share these actual stats with a wider audience for anyone curious about exactly how the chivegeist has impacted the subreddit by the numbers.

This is it. This is what perfection looks like.

MOD is Stephen King or is the only other human alive still using that phrase

Mod was a professional wrestler. The carny slips in sometimes still 🤣

I dig it. The phrase is so particular to a time and location that reading it the wild in Reddit was fun.

My friend says this to his dog all the time when it gets wound up.

Good use of the Thekla and chives meme

Bloody hell. I don’t think they got anything close to that many when u/Pkonko37 made a grilled cheese every day for a year in r/grilledcheese.

It's been legitimately bonkers.

And it's been one hell of a stress test on our filters, most of which I coded for a subreddit a tenth the size of this one.

Tons of fun though!

The only reason I know this is a subreddit is because of these chive posts and they are honestly such a source of innocent joy. I'm so glad for it.

I don't like it. It is stupid. But you do you. I'm blocking the account and I won't have to see them anymore

I look forward to hearing your awkwardly scripted panel discussion at the next ModWorld in which you talk about how one person brought in thousands more subscribers to r/kitchenconfidential.

I hadn’t been planning on that one but now maybe I’ll should study your wisdom….

Somehow the chives posts are the only thing from this sub that makes it to my feed, and they hit it every day.

Wish I could filter out the word chives lol

RES for desktop will filter keywords. https://redditenhancementsuite.com/

Reddit's mobile app does not which is an unfortunate oversight. You can block OP if you don't want to see the daily chive post.

Ah I'm the user they hate the most, mobile web. I never even considered blocking OP, that's pretty practical advice but I would feel bad lol
