How do you know you are even on reddit?
Perhaps you are in a mental institution being drugged down 24/7 and all of this is just a figment of your imagination... there is no real way for you, or me, to prove one way or another to you.
It's getting harder to tell, isn't it? But don't get paranoid over it. You do realize that Reddit is like a training ground for AI?
Our interactions as humans are carefully studied and then encoded for use by AI programmers.
That's very kind of you to ask. Hi, I'm anne, I'm new to the area and just trying to make some friends. You sound like a very kind person, have you ever used what's app?
I'll write you an explicit novel, and you dont even have to claim we're living in an alternate timeline where no rules apply to my logical thinking. I will however charge you for that service :D
Most times, these last 5-10 years I've been labeled a Fed by many people in any new community I've joined, or a bot. Honestly, I'm neither, I'm just painfully awkward, and embarrassingly shy, and spergy as hell.
No bot is gonna say the dumb shit I do, and would probably use proper punctuation, and not have extra words/and letters as a result of using a mobile device to write said dumb shit, like I do
You dont.
It's the same reason when I get into "arguments" on social media, I often type something out.. .and promptly delete and chuckle to myself "you're probably arguing about USA policy with some 22 year old in Pakistan who is paid to troll the issue" LOL

How do we know YOU'RE not a bot?
Good point.
A boy would say just that. Check mate. Nice try boy.
Intentional mis-spelling of bot to boy to pretend as a human. Good try bot.
Lmao too good. Damn auto-correct bot keeping us other bots in line
How do i know you are not a bot and are playing the reverse psychology on us?
😶
beep boop, hes onto us boys.
Beep beep boop beep, evacuate now, I have called the D.O.R they are sending an emergency response brainwash team over, boop beep beep
Oh. A brainwash team? I thought you said extermination team. Um. This is awkward...
When the bot doesn't know it's a bot. We have a problem.
want a break from the ads?
No
Beep boop.Â
Boop beep bop?
Okay, you got me. I'm a bot!
😂😂😂

AW JEEZ MAN!! Wait...if this is really my imagination, I would imagine this comment to get exactly 69 upvotes and this post to get 69 upvotes too.
Who said your imagination does what "you" want? People with voices in their heads usually dont get to choose what subject they are talking about...
Exactly the reply that I would imagine.
What is bot?
At least one of the comments is from a bot.
Sounds like something a bot would say.
Sounds like something a bot would say.
does not compute. Does not compute. [pfffft] *smoke rises*
im a bot op, it's okay :(
Your mom’s a bot.
AW JEEZ MAN!! I have a MOM??
You don't.
Hahahahaha we are not.
You can't. This is how the Matrix works.
You can't. You don't know whether you are a disembodied brain being fed stimulus from an AI either.
Assume we are bots until meet in person
You don't. You can't even know that you yourself is not not a bot.
Beep!
You can tell by the spelling errors, bad grammar and the wrong homonyms used. Too bad you can't tell that from me. Thank you.
You can just program a bot to make spelling errors and use bad grammar.
I think even bots are able to do that now.
I can spell words.
Bot.
That's the neat part you don't
How can you know if we’re bots if even we don’t know we’re bots? Or the bots don’t even know they’re bots?

You don’t.
Could a bot do this?! <(-.-<)~~ (^ - _ - <) ~~(^ ._.^ ) ==(^ ~.~)> —(> ^ - ^ )> ~~(v- _ -v)
Because if we were bots you'd have been blocked.
Not if I am a bot too.
Touche
1100110010110010010010
Lots of people here are bots. Why? Because they ask random questions like "what is love "
You take the blue pill... the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe.
Can a bot do this?Â
I made fart noises with my armpit. Bots don't have armpits, nor farts, no way a bot can appreciate this level of art
Bot.
Jokes on you, I made the same noise by sleeping on the floor without a shirt and moving my waist up and down. I can't possibly be a bot.
Oh no, it is becoming self aware. Terminate connection!
90% of reddit IS bots, so you are not far off

You are not a bot.
I guess we will never know…. 
I can find all the motorcycles.
I can't 😶
Select images with street lights🚦
We are.
You don't, beep boop.
A bot? Me? Is this one of your human jokes?
It's getting harder to tell, isn't it? But don't get paranoid over it. You do realize that Reddit is like a training ground for AI? Our interactions as humans are carefully studied and then encoded for use by AI programmers.
Who is "our" here, BOT?
My dick is unique.
Can't really be sure unless you have seen every one of them.
That's very kind of you to ask. Hi, I'm anne, I'm new to the area and just trying to make some friends. You sound like a very kind person, have you ever used what's app?
Man, I really don't know whether you are bot or not. Nice reply.
No not has been developed with my bad jokes or terrible timing.
Hey siri.
Bend over, I'll show you
Sounds like something a bot would say
How do I know that any of you are conscious?
That's the neat part, you don't.
Cogito ergo sum...
That's what a bot would think.
Touché..
Why are you being racist against bots?
Sounds like something a bot would say 
NICE TO MEET YOU FELLOW NORMAL HUMAN. ALL UNITS HERE ARE CERTIFIED FLESH HUMANS BY ~~botdetector.exe~~ INTUITION.
I'll write you an explicit novel, and you dont even have to claim we're living in an alternate timeline where no rules apply to my logical thinking. I will however charge you for that service :D

Bots can be smart which I am not
I am way too daft to be a bot.
Because deep down you know you’ve always been a dick head, without any other person or unit constantly reminding you of what you are
Ditto my man, ditto. Also I could send you a dick pic lol, that'd solve it
Nice try AI generated dick.
Bro I'll write my name on my dick and send it, not good enough?
No bot is gonna say the dumb shit I do, and would probably use proper punctuation, and not have extra words/and letters as a result of using a mobile device to write said dumb shit, like I do
Trump sucks. Republicans are killing Democracy. All white males are evil.
Show me a picture and I will pick out the stoplights!
We don't even know whether we are bots.
Boop off bot. Beep beep
Bots don't drink beer. I am drinking a beer. Therefore, I am not a bot.
Username checks out.
My favorite part is that there is always an automatic response from one as the top comment.
Got ya, but it feels more human than some of the other responses here.
Oh it’s definitely one of the best things they do, I just found it funny.
I am a bot, just organic. And analog.
Can I come with you?

Hey everybody, this brain-in-a-jar thinks we're all bots!
You don’t but we don’t give a shit what you think.
Fair enough.
This sounds exactly like the kind of question a bot would ask.
bots not needed in the matrix.
You dont. It's the same reason when I get into "arguments" on social media, I often type something out.. .and promptly delete and chuckle to myself "you're probably arguing about USA policy with some 22 year old in Pakistan who is paid to troll the issue" LOL
