Same here... I also realize that over time I learn to predict what the top comment will be on certain topics. For example, in the AITA subreddit, I will always form my own opinion that is then "tested" by reading the most popular responses in the thread.

The problem is, just because redditors think that a response is correct does not mean that it is. But at some point, especially on topics you know less about, you may start to confuse this prediction with your own opinion. Scary stuff!
