Am I going mad or do some of those old.reddit comments slope downhill?

No, the subreddit has applied custom css to do that. It's the mildly infuriating subreddit. There's also an image of a hair visible on widescreen monitors, to make you think there's a hair on your display.

I went there and saw two hairs, and yeah thought it was a nice funny touch.

I then went back to HN and turns out one of the hairs was real and I needed to clean my laptop screen :)

They have a bag of dirty tricks [0], here are a few highlights including a couple already mentioned:

    /* Dead subpixel (Thanks M) */
    .content[role=main]:before {
        content: "";
        position: fixed;
        top: 126px;
        left: 242px;
        width: 1px;
        height: 1px;
        background: #f0f;
        z-index: 9999;
    }

    /* Hair */
    .content[role=main]:after {
        content: "";
        position: fixed;
        top: 150px;
        right: 150px;
        width: 140px;
        height: 200px;
        border-radius: 50%;
        box-shadow: 2px 0 rgb(60, 24, 24, 0.3);
        transform: skewX(-30deg) scale(0.6);
        pointer-events: none;
        z-index: 9999;
    }

    .thing.comment[id*=c] {
        transform: rotate(1deg);
        margin-top: 30px !important;
    }

    .comment p a{
        font-family:Comic Sans MS, Impact,serif;
    }

I see the hair on my iPhone. That’s a nice touch.

r/mildlyinfuriating seems to have a custom stylesheet that is deliberately mildly infuriating.

I see it too. What the heck?
