Rhythm and Blues music, or R&B music, was originally termed "race music" and basically included any form of music intended for black audiences. A combination of jazz, gospel, and blues, the term "R&B" was originally coined in the late 1940’s in the United States to be used as a less offensive marketing term. While R&B music has evolved over the years to spawn contemporary genres of R&B sounds, the original genre focused on boogie rhythms and included such famous acts as Bo Diddley and Chuck Berry. The end of World War II produced a surprising call for race music, and the R&B music genre took off as a result. Today’s contemporary R&B music has a distinctly different sound than its forebears, focusing on pop beats and culture rather than the blues, gospel and jazz sounds of previous generations (though those elements are still sometimes present). In the late 1940’s and into the fifties, R&B groups consisted of brass instruments and woodwinds, as well as drums, piano and vocals. These elements were common in jazz bands, but R&B musicians produced a heavier sound with a steady beat. As the fifties progressed, the genre became notable for its sexually suggestive lyrics and provocative dancing associated with it.

A satirical subreddit where people imitate Karen's and want to ban video games.
The subreddit claims that all gamer's are Nazis and homophobic. The subreddit regularly gets brigaded by angry gamers.
- Ugh Karens created a subreddit called r/BanVideoGames. I'm so angry, like why do they want to ban video games ?
-It is actually a satirical subreddit.

r/place was Reddit's April Fools joke for 2017. Basically, it was a 1000 x 1000 pixel blank 'canvas'. Anyone with a more-than-a-month-old Reddit account could place a pixel on the canvas in one of 16 colors, but they then had to wait 5 minutes before placing another pixel. The idea was to encourage people to work together and create something.
It was pretty popular, there were a bunch of 'factions' trying to make different things, etc. If you want to know more about that just YouTube search "history of r/place".
r/place was shut down after 72 hours, almost immediately after that remakes started popping up like weeds.
r/place's slogan was 'Individually you can create something. Together we can create something more.'
...problem is, most people just banded together into little tribes. Kinda like life.

A subreddit dedicated to the memes of the Star Wars prequels.
Currently they have 1.5 million members
Man:I think I may join r/prequelmemes.
Woman: good! I think you should.
Obi-Wan: Hello There
Grievous: General Kenobi!
A subreddit on the site of Reddit which has grown over the past few years, to the point where the average IQ dropped like a coconut, and is now mostly filled with circle jerking clowns who hate the sport more than they like it.
It only accepts one opinion, the one of the hivemind, and any other opinion, even if correct, will get you shunned right off the sub. Because of this the discussions are never actually discussions, and always useless offering absolutely nothing insightful about them.
In theory r/formula1 should be a great sub for followers and fans of F1 to go to however is ruined by the toxicity, idiocy, and clownery of redditards and F1 Fan s in general
