I’ve noticed you can 100% predict the comments based on the posts. Are OzBargainers loving the same comments over and over again or are these all new people thinking they are the only/first people to make these comments? What are some other cookie cutter comments that always appear?

  1. Condom deal: Thanks this is a lifetime supply
  2. Ice cream deal: It’s a scam. This should be normal price
  3. iPhone: Since when is a phone $2000?!
  4. Any high price item eg over $50k : Thanks OP bought 10.
  5. Asking for advice on buying car: Reference to old thread about the Westpac investment banker buying “high yield” AMG

    Need advice.

    I hit someone with my car, I have no insurance

    Did I get scammed

  • drprox on 02/12/2023 - 11:28

    you missed the other car advice, if buying used it's "the newest camry you can buy"

  • Dreamcast on 02/12/2023 - 11:50

    "Lol"

    Seriously though, it's somewhat sheep mentality. We all do it to a certain extent.

    Just look at YouTube comments with the amount of rehashed comments that people use to fit in and for the likes.

    Im a middle aged menopausal brisbane man who rides a bike and wears lycra. I didnt like the response from a store, despite the terms and conditions clearly stating return policy.

    I proceed to lodge bad feedback everywhere i can over a $30 shirt, then get blocked due to harassing the staff as its my right to be abusive. I then open a OZB thread and proceed to argue and respond individually to every opposing argument.

    Finally i close the thread and still think im in right.

    • Typical16-bitEnjoyer on 03/12/2023 - 09:38

      That was one of the funniest threads I've read all year.

    Comments like "This is not a deal!" responding to a post on a movie/show release on a streaming service.

    Followed by comments such as "If you don't like it you can just skip this post".

    We use community consensus to help form our ideas/opinions on any given topic, so it makes sense that we're always borrowing other people's thoughts and phrases. Communication will fall into recognisable patterns among any group of people.

    2. Ice cream deal: It’s a scam. Should be half this price
    3. iPhone: Since when is a phone $5000?!
    4. Any high price item eg over $5k : Thanks OP bought 100
    5. Asking for advice on buying car: Reference to ancient thread about the Westpac investment banker buying “high yield” AMG

    Love ozbargain but there definitely is a bit of a mob and circle jerk mentality.
