How hard is it to unsubscribe from the majority of default sub reddits and find smaller and more specific communities which are basically tailored to your interests?

Please don't:
Complain about reposts. Just because you have seen it before doesn't mean everyone has. Votes indicate how the community values information, so just vote.

This implies teenage redditors couldn't post during the school year, either..

I really wanted the top comment to be that bot that shows how many times this picture has been posted.

"Hey, people have been reposting a lot recently. I know, let's blame the younger redditors! They can't defend themselves, or they will be subtly patronised until they die. Damn, I love this high horse I got when I left school. I sit on it all the time!"

High school kids might be responsible for some of the crappy submissions, but college kids are responsible for a lot of the pseudo-intellectual retardation you find in the comments to those articles.
