I was more amused by this paragraph from the /r/law mods brief:

There are subreddits for *everything* - in some cases, more than one subreddit. Most are very small, with only a handful of members. Some are extremely peculiar. Some, it must be noted, are devoted to pornography, and not the sort published by Playboy. Any justice or clerk who elects to do some research from a government computer is forewarned.

wil was the first famous person i remember seeing on reddit. he is still using the same account... had a look and it looks like he still posts like a 'regular person' lol. i can only imagine the amount of dicks he has dealt with over the years. lots of people delete their accounts and start new because of wankers but wil remains.

Which is hilarious, because Wil often comes across as a complete dickhead.
