Every founder has to delude themselves into thinking, "Yes, it's going to be big. It's going to take over the world."

The great thing about the Internet is, it's the freest marketplace of ideas that there is.

I guess if you include contractors that are six or seven people working on reddit, but when we got acquired there were basically three and then in the years since, we've added three more developer hires full time, and a community manger. But the site is still remarkably small.

I like sarcasm. I like snark.

I try to help founders as much as I can, but so many of us we won't even take meetings with people who still just have an idea, because everyone has an idea.

There was a clear lesson here — and that was that the Internet loves Mister Splashy Pants.

If I were a snarky Reddit user though, I would say, hypothetically, that that would just be like reading Reddit's Front Page a day later. But I'm not going to go there.
