> Like how Reddit is fine with r/Superbowl deleting any post that isn't a picture of an owl.

Minor nitpick: I agree with the idea, but the deletion of any post that doesn't contain an owl on r/Superbowl isn't a ridiculous rule. The subreddit is dedicated to "superb owls" and not to anything else.

Agreed. When I go to the superbowl subreddit, I am expecting many superb owls and nothing else. I don't see how anyone can have a problem with that. Sometimes, the users are the problem and we need a heavy hand to make sure they are obedient -- all for their benefit, not ours.

Reminds me of Saturday Night Live’s Celebrity Jeopardy where one contestant famously mispronounced “ThePenIsMightier” category. (Just lowercase the first “I”)

/r/apple should pivot to be about Apple Records and the Beetles

I was hoping to go there for an in depth discussion about the merits of Granny Smith vs Red Delicious

Red Delicious is now a grotesque betrayal of its original version and you know it.

Red Mediocre didn't test well with the focus groups
