"TIFU by asking Reddit which ethnic group to exterminate."
On Saturday987 Archives the Formula 1 auto racing subreddit r/Formula1 received some unexpected viral attention when one Redditor's poorly-worded post got wildly misinterpreted by the online community.
"If you could eliminate a race within the year, which would it be, and why?" the doomed post reads.
"From my perspective, and it’s not going to be a popular one, but it would have to be Monaco," OP continues.
"As years have gone by, it’s become too much of a procession/parade than a race for me, not enough space or opportunities to overtake on the circuit, making it more of a team tactics battle rather than a race." (!!!)
The confusing and alarming post quickly gained traction on r/Formula1, eventually gaining enough momentum to land the top spot on r/all.
The regretful OP followed up with a number of vital clarifying comments — mainly specifying that he wasn't asking for his fellow Redditors to brainstorm a genocide— and made a few edits to his original post apologizing for the cross-site confusion.

While OP did receive some unwanted attention for the poorly-worded question, they're also walking away with some great karma, a whole lot of Reddit gold, and one hilarious story to tell — even if their inbox never recovers.
