A lot of redditers are stupid and have no idea what figurative language is
for an app that consist of mostly reading things, a big portion people on here struggle with understanding the most basic figurative language. Which is something you typically you learn in the seventh grade. They have no idea what a metaphor is. They have no idea what alliteration is. Have no idea what a hyperbole is. And they definitely don’t know what analogy is. I could explain something to someone in direct detail on a topic, and they would either be too full of themselves to process what I said, or they just don’t care about expanding their knowledge. Talking to some people on here feels like talking to a toddler who refuses to listen. This happened to me once because I was explaining something to someone and they just weren’t listening. I then said "everything I said must've flew through your brain and out of your left ear", which is a hyperbole if anyone was wondering. This guy responded with "well that's not physically possible, so you're wrong.". He was dead serious too. This happens to me way too often. Whenever I will use the most basic most basic, obvious, figurative language or obviously sarcasm they just act like there’s no such thing as figurative language. I’m seriously starting to question where some of these people went to school.
