You are the kind of Pens fan people hate. Your comment has literally nothing to do with the topic at hand, and inserting the Pens into every sub-thread for no discernible reason is grating af.

Not a pens fan. But thanks for assuming.

This making everything about "the kind of Pens fan that people hate" is even more annoying than the Pens fans imo. I interpreted the comment as the ayrt wanted to cull people who liked the Pens/were obnoxious about them winning. Regardless, irritating behavior isn't confined to fans or haters of one particular team, but jumping on BAD PENS FAN when it's not even clear someone is one (why would a Pens fan write this?? when you win you enjoy seeing the reactions of people who hate your team the most) is OTT and says more about you then whoever your criticizing.

lol ok. If I'd decided to be uncharitable, I would have said "this is why meme finds Pens fans insufferable". But I didn't. I said I found the particular commenter insufferable and would that they were un-anon, I would cull them from all platforms.

why would a Pens fan write this?? when you win you enjoy seeing the reactions of people who hate your team the most

Because this is how all people feel ever!!!!1 RME. This person 100% sounds like a Pens fan and I don't buy them (and you) now proclaiming that they meant something different.

na

It's pretty obvious what they meant? Especially when people on meme have talked before about muting/unfollowing obnoxious Pens fans during the playoffs/after they won? Like lmao obviously your interpretation is colored by your perception of Pens fans, so that must be the source of any comment you find annoying. It's hilarious bc you complain about Pens fans bringing up the Pens everywhere, but it seems like lately on meme it's OTT haters doing that and now accusing each other of being Pens fans lmao. Like ffs no one's lying about how they interpreted a comment just to ~prove you wrong.

a-ayrt-rt

Seriously, they compared the Pens winning a cup to an election where Donald Trump is a viable candidate. Sure, there's some possible ambiguity there but that "100 percent sounds like a Pens fan" yeah that definitely is bc of what they wrote and not bc of the perception of the person reading, mm hmm.

sa

*compared Twitter reactions to, I'm not trying to accuse anyone of comparing a team they don't like to a fascist racist sexist homophobe etc.

I'm just astounded this person thinks they weren't "uncharitable," like..... ok......

This whole argument reminds me of the time someone on meme made a joke about Crosby having the Dubi-flu when he missed a game against CBJ, and meme wanked about whether a CBJ or Pens fans had made it and if it was a joke at Crosby's or Dubinsky's expense... and then which fanbase is more obnoxious, blahblahblah...

Meme's not very good with jokes, especially jokes involving the Pens.
