I hate gamification of... Everything, but if it's just "oh hey I've been here for X years and at some point I got 5000 upvotes / 800 downvotes, that's cool I guess", I'm kinda for it actually.
It's like with videogame achievements. They're not super important for most people, but sometimes it's nice to look back at the stuff you've played or what you had to overcome. Some are addicted to it too. Real life doesn't give you much satisfaction in this way.
I’m not even sure I need to read the rest of the thread after this comment. You win by default! I guess it makes as much sense as anchovies on pizza though.

Necromancing Dancing by bear ghost can lift my mood regardless of why I'm upset. but it usually 'Depends on what I'm upset about. I try to find a song that is about the issue I'm experiencing. It helps me better articulate why I am upset I guess.
I think a better way to convey the intended sarcasm is to make it hyperbole or exaggerated. I saw your comment and one would have to be pretty dense to not see the sarcasm, so you did that well.
