One time I couldn’t figure out how to do something in this old game I was replaying. Typed in the problem, and found an old forum post of mine where I explained what to do in that section. At least I didn’t do a classic “nevermind - solved it” post back then.
worse: enjoying a youtube video for the first time, then seeing your comment as the first one in the comment section.
I once searched for a solution for a tech problem, found a reddit thread that explained exactly what to do. Lo and behold, there is my own comment thanking the poster for the solution from three years before
Your comment: “found the issue, was something completely different. thanks anyway!”

Oh my god, that finally fixed it! I thought I’d never find a solution! Thank you so much!!!

Who were you, DenverCoder9? What did you see?!
I once searched for a solution for a tech problem, was bombarded with people posting variations on the most unhelpful text of all time: “It’s working for me”.
i have been back to rediscover some song for the first time in my memory 3-4 times already
I once was two hundred pages into a book before I realized I had already read it.
It wasn’t a very good book the second time either
Anyone still watching in 2026??
(dear lord I hate these comments on every damn video)
Often those annoying cliche comments are made by bots.
Same vibe - searching for a solution on StackOverflow, best answer is one I wrote …
I used to be smarter than……me?
I did that, found the exact issue I have. Looked at the author and it was me 3 years earlier, still without the answer I was looking for
I’ve been 2.5 episodes into a “new” show before realizing I’d watched it before.
I have replied to my own comments years later and agreed with myself before realizing.
There is nothing new under the sun.
It seems you’ve also seen a sphere being turned inside out
More than once for me it’s been a comment that I posted.
best part is you discovering the comment because you wanted to post a comment and it’s the same thing verbatim
Nice, you can be a politician or even a us president if your condition degrades soon
I swear youtube is messing with me, I get videos sometimes that I don’t have liked but i swear I’ve seen before
It’s common for channels to repost old videos so YouTube promotes them as new again. Often with tweaked title and thumbnail to try for more click rates the second time, but sometimes it’s just reposting something old enough that due to user turnover it will be new to many of the people it’s promoted to.
Also, it’s common for channels to steal content from other channels, to slap together with minimal editing what the original creator took weeks to research and design presentation for.
What kind of psychopath reads the comments, let alone likes them…
It’s not an indication of psychopathy. Probably an indication of having no social life.
Or seeing your likes as you scroll through the comments
That’s what the image says…
