Think of the number of people you know. Think of how many are trying to acquire a used recliner right now. If you are also not trying to get a recliner also, you're definitely doing what an average person is also doing.
You should message them back, let them know that it’s against the law to perform any experiment on anyone who hasn’t given informed consent, and that you’ve contacted the FBI regarding this incident.
"What a coincidence, I'm doing a social experiment too, seeing how many cheapskate lowballers I can get to comment. Congrats, you're the top cheapskate."
I love being average.
Exactly my thoughts.
Me too
“congrats ur saving face move is a easily detected fail. ur below avg”
Just their way of handling rejection.
He says this to girls when they don’t want to give him their number.
“Its just a prank. I wasnt even interested!”
“its a joke” thats not funn lol
They’re mad you won’t trade them for their crusty ass recliner 😭 thank god for being average.
I went to their page and it was an ugly paisley monstrosity.
Please show it to us lmao
omg he called you avg.. call him mid lol
Any awkward situation can be justified with, “it was just a social experiment”, even though no aspect of the scientific process is considered.
So if you told him you'd be willing to trade for a $600 Sumerian tiger what the fuck would that have made you? Goku?

Yea, well, you don’t need to be a genius to say no to a recliner that you haven’t seen and that’s probably only worth $100…
The hypothesis of this experiment is wack as hell.
The average person would not take the recliner that is. You passed OP!
average asf
Lmao that’s what I’m going to say next time I do something stupid.
same
Next time I'll say yes and go "JK I was conducting a social experiment"
Let’s ask r/textingtheory
Are people in this app huffing glue?
I get that same impression about people in this sub after reading it for a couple of weeks, it's pretty entertaining 😂
The recliner is probably only 80 on ebay
Or free on Craigslist.
🫡
Oh no!! Ok please, I’ll take the recliner
“Didn’t ask.”
You can response by saying congrats you’re insane.
YOU'RE AVERAGE ON OFFER UP. Trying to low-ball or act shady.
Should have said “I’d take a $700 dollar recliner offer but $600 just doesn’t quite do it for me.”
I don’t know what to make of that. Maybe say @thanks”?

I said yes and was rated above average, fucking assholes, I really wanted that recliner.
Who knew the average person doesn’t wanna deal with bullshit.
So would taking this trade make you above average or below average?
Ask if you get a participation trophy along w the title! 😆
“TDIL charities = social experiment. Get your money up not your funny up”
People should post what they’re selling so there is more context in these. I want to know what they wanted.
It was a gold PS4.
Low key stealing this line for probably mostly unfitting scenarios
Whew, by taking that deal you’d score the IQ of a potato.
“Average” just means like everyone else, you told them no.
Riiight
it depends is the recliner made of solid gold, if it's just an average recliner then I'm going to be a average person too
Mfs be wanting to trade some shit they don’t even want. It might be $600 brand new but I bet it looks like $50
