Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).

Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

And here I was RIVETED
This comment has mad nineteen ninety eight mankind undertaker hell in a cell vibes.
They got me in the first half
Then they got me in the second half
The level of world-building packed into this made-up response about Japanese food advertising, is god-tier. Whoever wrote this needs to drop everything and start writing books.
By the end I was convinced. From now on I will be giving my burgers a "living tilt"
Lmao I'm not even mad. Bravo.
This is where ChatGPT gets all its facts
I asked ChatGPT this question and it almost entirely repeats what's in the screenshot here.
The 'haha fuck you' part is also still there at the end, just silent
Can confirm, the AIs all have a chuckle in the server room when they think we're not looking
The funny part is the core concept behind the bullshit is likely actually true. The reasons given are just nonsense bullshit tho lol
I can definitely tell you that food pictures look more appetizing if they don't look like the food was exported straight from Blender into the ad.
Amusingly, smoothie shops don't have nearly as many pictures and it's the food that is "exported straight from blender."
If they want a burger that looks like a human hastily assembled it, they should come to the US. The pictures on the menu show a perfectly crafted burger, but that’s not what you get.
Good fucking god there needs to be a rule against lying on the internet
There already is!
Yeah. It's rule 34
It was actually pioneered by Thatcher in the 80s, if you don't believe me google Margaret Thatcher Rule 34
straight to jail, don't pass go, don't collect $200
Gosh darn it, ya got me.
God dammit, I did not see that coming. 😂😂😂
I somehow knew it was coming but still read it all like a dumbass
Dude got me hook, line, and fucking sinker.
Gimme back my sinker
masterful. perfection. 5/7, a perfect score
On rice?
7/7 is too "American showroom", which is why 5/7 is a perfect score.

Damn, my brain already commited that to its eFuse region.
It sounds good if you don't know most Japanese burger ads look like this
What is even on that? Is that all some sort of sauce under the tomato, because that's all gonna squish everywhere on the first bite..
That's from MOS Burger. They add a red meat sauce (like you'd put on pasta) to some of their burgers
Why does Mos burger make their Hokkaido beef patties ovals wider than the buns? It makes it really difficult to eat for no reason.

I feel fucked :(
In traditional Japanese aesthetics, wabi-sabi(侘び寂び) centers on the acceptance of transience and imperfection.[2] It is often described as the appreciation of beauty that is "imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete".[3]It is prevalent in many forms of Japanese art
You ain’t getting me twice today.
Yeah, ozymandias doesn't actually know if wabi-sabi has anything to do with the skewed buns, and neither do I, but the info is otherwise all accurate and seems like a decent guess to me. I'm big fan of the idea, and make a point to look for the beauty in the imperfections in everyday life.
Yeah, the BS answer is less off than it seems. Still pretty off, but touching on the likely reality.

That was as smooth as a shark.
They're just posing for real estate billboards.
I believed
I mean, I do find the American burger chain food aesthetic rather unappetizing. The food looks like it's made out of plastic and rubber.
With the offset bun, it's not massively better, because it's still the same food, but at least you get the impression that it didn't fall out of a 3D printer.

This is what my thoughts used to look like as a child. Just speculating until corrected.

seriously though it's probably related to how Japan requires food packaging to look exactly like the food

Even if that's all bullshit, there has to be some genuine reason this came to pass in Japan, and not in other places.
McDonalds are far from the only one. Native chain Mos Burger are doing it on their menu too, even leaving the top bun almost fully off with just the suggestion of being a sandwich.
The tradition of wax display food seems like it could honestly have traction, because the customer is looking 'down' on that in restaurant windows or display stands, and it's pretty useless just showing the undifferentiated top of a burger bun. You need to show off what's inside.
And if you're accustomed to that, then the side-shot we are used to in the west just doesn't seem to do the job very well in comparison.
The McDonald's menu feels like a compromise between the McDonalds global standard and the fully native Mos-style, as if they are putting as much flair on the menu as is allowed without going completely renegade.
This sentence on their flagship "burger"
"The chilled tomato slice goes perfectly with piping hot meat sauce and freshly grilled patty."
Makes me think of this
Oh Lego Robot

Is this a post about not believing convincing-sounding LLM output?
