What I learned from going viral on Reddit

I woke up early this morning, and began my normal routine of coffee, emails, and Reddit.
Wait a minute: there’s a Subreddit called “Roast me”. I know how much people love mocking air guitarists, so I snapped a quick photo, uploaded it, and went to work in the booth.

Came out a couple hours later and saw that I had several hundred comments, and then later in the afternoon, it blew up to the front page.

I am still reading some of these jabs, and almost all of them are genuinely funny. Reddit is for the most part, much better at self-policing than YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and the like.
Plus, between Middle School, The Army, Air Guitar, martial arts, and acting, I’ve developed a pretty thick skin, so it takes a lot to get at me. Anyways, they're good for a laugh, and I don’t mind, so please enjoy
