Didn't notice that part. I think most subs lock the voting after 6 months if it isn't a default setting. If it wasn't a big sub that long ago, that still seems about right. If reddit still allowed you to see the upvote/downvote ratio, it would be more telling if it was universally rejected opinion or if it was closer to 50/50.
It's wild to think, by the time this screenshot was taken that far might be embarrassing his daughter in front of her friends with this very same story.
