Erm, guys thats just a really obvious troll.

[–]Insanitor37 537 points538 points ago

[–]Golden_afro 148 points149 points ago

The way his username is put Jivestofturkeys suggests a fairly good grasp of English

[–]mrpopenfresh 58 points59 points ago

I'll say, it's a pretty good name. Besides, who has ever commented on the quality of lyrics in a Skrillex song?

[–]Imsoicey 33 points34 points ago

However if you look at the chap who replied to him has a non-intelligent sounding name: Mahwiener

[–]horrorshowmalchick 45 points46 points ago

It's almost as if the quality of the name isn't a great indicator as to the quality of the post!?

[–]WritesSexStories 6 points7 points ago

I agree. Shallow and pedantic

[–]SOMETHING_POTATO 15 points16 points ago

I LEIK POETAYTOES

[–]Battletooth 8 points9 points ago

Or that it's a great indicator. It's the same on reddit.

FIERY_FECAL_FISTS often gives better advice than "mike12665". The worse the name, the better the content. That's a great indicator.

I would like to think I give off fairly average content. My name isn't offensive in any way but it's not "random12345" plain.

[–]Darth2132 5 points6 points ago

What does that make me?

[–]JivestTurkey 23 points24 points ago

[–]commandodude1265 4 points5 points ago

31 minutes? I'll allow it. But only because it's a really good name that makes me think of Back to the Future.

I HAVE FOUND THE SECRET

[–]mrpopenfresh 0 points1 point ago

Could it be that this was a set up and the guy mixed up his accounts?

[–]trampus1 10 points11 points ago

That girl who goes "oooooo" in most dubstep songs is very deep.

[–]Werro_123 4 points5 points ago

You mean that robot?

[–]TheMajicalWaffle 5 points6 points ago

Skrillex songs HAVE lyrics?

[–]bevus 5 points6 points ago

"oh my god!!"

[–]Eazii 0 points1 point ago

"CALL 911 NOW!"

[–]derkerburgl 2 points3 points ago

Why yes, he has some good non-dubstep songs with lyrics. I guess everyone is too busy raging their faces off to his nonsense dubstep and forgot about his songs that are actually good. That or they have just never heard of them. A good one is "All I Ask of You"

[–]lolroflqwerty 2 points3 points ago

Doesn't contain a lot of vocals, but Summit featuring Ellie Goulding is a great song that's not traditional dubstep.

[–]Golden_afro 0 points1 point ago

Cat rats is one of his less heavy songs and it's very enjoyable

[–]jakewubbleyou 0 points1 point ago

'Jive turkey' is an insult. Listen to The Ohio Players song of the same name.

[–]mrpopenfresh 0 points1 point ago

I know what it is.

[–]Dead_Music -1 points0 points ago

Lyrics? What lyrics? Oh, you mean "yo skrillex drop it hard"? That counts?

[–]Mrst33le 0 points1 point ago

Scatta has lyrics. All I Ask Of You has lyrics. With You, Friends has lyrics. Sexual Seduction has lyrics. Summit has lyrics. Kyoto has lyrics. I could name more.

[–]The_Nigger_General 16 points17 points ago

You've hit the nail on the head.

Jive Street of Turkeys.

FTFY

[–]StrangeSequitur 1 point2 points ago

I failed to note the usernames in the original image, and because your comment lacks the mid-word capitalization I misread it as JiveTofurkey. I'm almost tempted to start registering that as a username, now...

[–]murderbum999 0 points1 point ago

I'm glad I noticed that just before sending that to a friend.

[–]leex0 18 points19 points ago

Indeed, just because someone is trolling doesn't mean you aren't allowed to call them out on their stupidity (the stupidity of trolling).

[–]Sean1708 5 points6 points ago

So? Doesn't make the reply any less funny.

[–]hooplah 33 points34 points ago

It couldn't get any less funny anyway.

[–]The_cynical_panther 2 points3 points ago

His username is fantastic, though.

[–]FaroutIGE -1 points0 points ago

THANK GOD THIS IS TOP... Uber Meta Troll Feed.

[–]Cptnwalrus 80 points81 points ago

This guy is pretty clearly a troll.

[–]theduke37 23 points24 points ago

Obvious troll is obvious

[–]Cptnwalrus 19 points20 points ago

Obviously.

[–]Viking_Lordbeast 9 points10 points ago

Oblivious. Remember that show? I liked that show.

[–]Cptnwalrus 6 points7 points ago

Never saw it, sounds good though.

[–]Werro_123 7 points8 points ago

Well, obviously...

At this point we all know and we don't want to come to the comments for this. Was expecting more. 1/10.

[–]Monsoonerator 18 points19 points ago

It's a shame, I wish I had thought of JivestOfTurkeys as a username

[–]JivestofTurkeys 12 points13 points ago

It's not as exciting as it sounds.

[–]eduardog3000 15 points16 points ago

Redditor for 0 days. I am dissapoint.

He is a disappointment to us all, eduardog3000.

[–]Cpt_Crustacean 35 points36 points ago

Im dyslexic so can someone pleas explain to me what i just read

[–]sethboy67 46 points47 points ago

We just read one of the first contacts with another intelligent race of species known as the 'Umans'.

[–]XxGirxX 9 points10 points ago

No it was contact with some one from planet Ed Hardy Fist Pump.

[–]WritesSexStories 1 point2 points ago

Apparently in space, they wear some form of TapOut suits that provide them enough swag to pick up space bitches

[–]XxGirxX 1 point2 points ago

Suits are sleeveless.

[–]WritesSexStories 0 points1 point ago

They are a noble race, who pride themselves on their space Hummers to make up for their space junk

[–]four_graves 3 points4 points ago

[–]0mnificent 3 points4 points ago

No, I believe this races is known as the "uhmannes". Notably, this race liks dis because they cri evry tim 5ever.

[–]CommunistAccounts 16 points17 points ago

Wow, If you listen to a Skrillex song you get deep and meaningful lyrics but with GAY PUNK you get stupid retard lyrics that don't even make sense. Artists like Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber confront serious problems in society with their music but Daft Punk (gayest name ever) just make stupid gay shit.

Where are you from? I'm from planet earth.

[–]codychro 9 points10 points ago

Ha, he still can't read it.

[–]DragoniteMaster 25 points26 points ago

I feel like if you have dyslexia it would be easier to read, because the letters would arrange themselves in the correct order.

[–]thagrrrl79 5 points6 points ago

I don't think any of us know.

[–]marty86morgan 2 points3 points ago

I'm going to assume you're actually asking for a real answer. The person was typing the way a suburban white kid trying to sound urban sounds. Even if you can read each word it makes no sense. It's an obvious bad attempt to troll.

[–]sltkr 7 points8 points ago

Considering the amount of attention he received, both on YouTube and Reddit, I'd say it's a well-fed troll.

[–]marty86morgan 0 points1 point ago

True indeed.

[–]Pointy130 45 points46 points ago

PUNCHLINE IN THE TITLE

[–]baxterg13 15 points16 points ago

I think the original comment was a bigger joke than the title

[–]karmapopsicle 1 point2 points ago

You mean the really obvious and shitty troll attempt?

[–]baxterg13 3 points4 points ago

Yep, thats the one. Good eye

[–]notsurewhatiam 2 points3 points ago

It's called "To get to the other side". Okay, here it goes.

Why did the chicken cross the road?

[–]JackTheBus 3 points4 points ago

You dare insult daft punk?!!

[–]SandyskysPeeWees 8 points9 points ago

His username is JivestofTurkeys. It would take a reasonable amount of intelligence to choose that as a username. Troll'd

That made my brain hurt.

[–]frankhorriganlovesto 0 points1 point ago

I don't like the argument that this is just a form of language which is evolving. Some people would argue that Ebonics cannot be graded against in school papers on the basis that it is just different from what is considered proper English but not incorrect.

[–]ScorchedCloud 0 points1 point ago

DAFT PUNK FOREVR!!!!!!!! and i dont think this guy understands that any kid who likes jb is gay. Daft Punk is an awsome band that makes new music ever 4-5 years because the're so good.

Youtube has brought in a whole demographic of borderline illiterates onto the internet. Traditionally people had read, comprehend and then respond - say in a forum. But now, you just watch a video and comment 'lol', 'WTF' etc.

[–]Mcsavage89 0 points1 point ago

With a name like JivestOfTurkeys, it has to be a troll.

Is jivestofturkeys aware that being a jive turkey is not a good thing? It's funk terminology for being lame as shit. Check: The Ohio Players - "Jive Turkey"

Not only did it mispell everything wrong, except for the words stupid and gay (coincidence? I think not) but it insulted Daft Punk. Kill it. Kill it with fire.

Probably when it arranged the system to give kids who were good at 'sports' all the kudos. This takes the focus away from learning, in an institution that is supposed to exist to promote learning; and encourages kids to yearn for short-term popularity above medium/long term achievements. (See also: The whole fucking rest of commercialised western culture.)
