The fact that this thread is filled with people giving awards speaks volumes about the community. I don't mean to be harsh, but its just so stupid.

People financially rewarding reddit for redditors top-class putdowns? Stupid.

I’d bet a good amount of money that a significant fractions of those awards are the admins trying to make the thread look shinier

I think there might be a decent percentage who are people who have have been given a lot of awards and have a substantial stash to give away.

Of course, there's no way to really verify my theory.
