The Internet is an interesting place, full of WTF stock photos and questionable DIY anti-coronavirus solutions. But if you like your content even edgier and weirder, look no further than the subreddit r/TIHI.

Its name is an acronym for "Thanks, I Hate It" and it pretty much sums up everything you see on the sub. From a vending machine selling Pringles in a pack as opposed to a tube, to a sign warning about deer carcasses falling from trees; the 1.3 million members of r/TIHI really know how to get under each other's skin. The best part is they do it without any gore or anything. Continue scrolling and check out some of the subreddit's most popular posts!

While the exact origin of the "Thanks, I hate it" phrase is unclear, its usage saw a spike in the fall of 2017 not only on Reddit but on Tumblr as well. According to the Internet culture database Know Your Meme, it was popularly used in comments responding to strange images before it was used to title such posts.

People began using the phrase in their post titles somewhere around late 2017 and early 2018, so you can say the subreddit r/TIHI (created on November 09, 2018) is a way of keeping this meme alive.

Mashable writer Heather Dockray believes that "Thanks, I hate it" is a celebration of what they call Internet Gothic; the grotesque consisting of hellish images, perverse Photoshops, photos suggestive of late capitalism, disturbing GIFs, shitposts, nihilist memes, and all the stupid stuff we try and forget we saw on the internet.

If it wasn't for r/TIHI, the meme might've died.

"The initial idea came from another moderator of us (u/scrumbly) on another post on r/ATBGE ... He posted a comment linking to this sub and as it didn't exist yet, I decided to make it a thing," Markus, the founder of the subreddit, told Mashable in an email. "I wanted to create a place for all the beautiful posts that are both likable and hatable at the same time. But I wasn't all that serious about it, as all subs I managed before were very small as well."

This one, however, lives on. And flourishes.

The moment when you realize all fruits and vegetables we have been eating for the last few centuries are genetically modified (through selective breeding, that is). Say this to someone who is scared of GMO's and watch their reaction ;)

Is selective breeding done in a laboratory? The definition of GMO is: Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are living organisms whose genetic material has been artificially manipulated in a laboratory through genetic engineering. This creates combinations of plant, animal, bacteria, and virus genes that do not occur in nature or through traditional crossbreeding methods.

I believe there is a large cash prize available to anyone who finds a seed in a standard banana. The current strain has been seedless for decades and can only be propagated by cuttings, which is making it extremely vulnerable to pests, diseases, and climate change. Without seeds, there is nothing that can be done to adapt the banana plant to these new threats and the whole strain is becoming unviable.

This disturbs me greatly. Not because of the seeds, but because it looks like the banana is rotten. I always felt disgusted as a kid when part of my banana turned out to have gone bad after peeling it.

Yes, we are so used to cultivated and doctored food but I really would not wish to eat this.

Our edibles are picked very green - would they ripen like this if left on the stalk?

I had a wild banana once, in Sri Lanka. It was juicy and refreshing. And very small. I don’t remember if there were any trypophobia-triggering seeds, though.

I always heard the bananas in stores are a genetic clone. Does anyone know if that's true??

I’m now wondering whether the often repeated urban legend about unpeeling a banana and “loads of spider eggs fell out because a tarantula laid eggs in there” were actually misinterpreted with something like this.

Well yeah. There are domesticated bananas and those are what are farmed.

Wouldn't surprise me if they had more nutritional value. Modern bananas are awful and have like zero taste
