[–]SirFappleton 23 points24 points ago

He's been out of a job living in a trash can for decades. FUCK ALL PRESIDENTS.

[–]moparornocar 9 points10 points ago

Hey Big Birrrrrrrd

[–]vivvav 40 points41 points ago

Ok. I gotta be that guy. Because none of you seem to take Muppet canon as seriously as I do.
Oscar lives in a trashcan by choice. He fucking loves it. He's kind of like the Ugopotamians from Fairly Oddparents, in that he revels in the disgusting, absolute worst elements of the world and people. In fact, it seems to be a common trait among the entire Grouch species. To him, beauty is ugly and ugly is beauty. Delicious is vomit-inducing and vomit-inducing is delicious. Fragrant stinks, and stink is fragrant.
This sums it up pretty well.

[–]starkid08 26 points27 points ago

Someone missed a Chappelle Show refernce >.>

[–]Askalotl 7 points8 points ago

[–]IAm_Wade 3 points4 points ago

Interesting to flip the perspective like that. Reminds me of the redditor that pointed out that the Humans in the Matrix are actually the bad guys, not the other way around

[–]GordonMcFreeman 3 points4 points ago

What was that? I would like to see that

[–]GordonMcFreeman 5 points6 points ago

Is this canon? Because it's awesome

[–]jefferytaylor 3 points4 points ago

Yes. It's from a series of shorts called The Animatrix which were done by different animation studios.

[–]SaintZvlkx 2 points3 points ago

I'd assume the argument went along the lines of: Humans created the machines, who attacked us out of what was essentially self-defense. We were also the ones that completely fucked up the planet, hoping that by blocking out the sun, we could kill the machines. That didn't work, and so the machines are forced to use people as a source of power.

[–]pantsfactory 2 points3 points ago

so, because Oscar lives on Sesame Street, which is otherwise clean and friendly, he lives a pretty awful life and is a grouch because of it?

[–]vivvav 4 points5 points ago

Grouches are grouchy by nature. They live to ruin the moods of others as well. He's on Sesame Street to spread the grouchiness.

[–]pantsfactory 3 points4 points ago

Hello, sir, do you have a moment to speak about bitter feelings, this morning?

[–]Level_99 0 points1 point ago

No no no, you have it all wrong. This is Oscar's backstory

[–]IBetThisLoginIsTaken 4 points5 points ago

That was kind of depressing :(

That's it, I'm done with Reddit for the evening. I've been trying to pry my self free for an hour now and that one has me crying with laughter, g night.

Considering I'm lying here with a fractured foot....I really needed this today...:)

[–]democritus2 4 points5 points ago

just had two surgeries on foot for a damn spider bite. Sitting at work with a 4 inch gash down the top center of foot with dozens of staples. Yeah us with the damaged feets needed this. NSFL- GORE WARNING.. http://imgur.com/a/4XkWb

Yeah. That was definitely my favorite version. I have it saved.

They said I could be anything, so I became a marijuana.

[–]SewFalk 14 points15 points ago

[–]UnitedShoelaces 12 points13 points ago

Looks like an apple advert.

[–]knylok 11 points12 points ago

...than living in a trashcan with some dude's fist up your ass all the time? I'd be hard pressed to think of a less pleasant scenario.

[–]prince_of_tacoma 2 points3 points ago

[–]torajix 4 points5 points ago

This has been my wallpaper for awhile.
also http://jasonfeldman.files.wordpress.com/2010/08/harden-the-fuck-up1.jpg

Both remind me that I should get to work.

[–]Niyeaux 6 points7 points ago

I really like this idea, so I found the original high-res image and made re-did it. This one's like 3000 x 2000 or something ridiculous.

[–]justinkasereddditor 2 points3 points ago

I would vote for him

[–]imyourplusone 2 points3 points ago

this was my wallpaper for the entirety of freshman year. helped me make a lot of new friends!

I just bit my tongue while eating my pizza. Shit really could not get any worse. Other than it will be cold by the time it stops hurting.

[–]josephsh 2 points3 points ago

I would like a poster of this

[–]It_Was_Probably_Me 2 points3 points ago

Oscar looks like weed. I wonder why he is so unhappy all the time?

[–]AllDizzle 2 points3 points ago

1920 x 1080?

I've been having a rough month....this background must be meant for me to use.

[–]serotoninflood 2 points3 points ago

Thank you new background.

[–]simsedotdk 2 points3 points ago

This is now my desktop background.

[–]13Man 2 points3 points ago

I find these comments pacifying. As in promoting the pacification of those who should be outraged.

[–]foxh8er 2 points3 points ago

"After all, Mitt Romney could be president'.

[–]Terce 2 points3 points ago

This has been my background for quite some time now

[–]MostlyMoxie 2 points3 points ago

I'm having a REALLY shitty day. I got dumped recently and I just broke down at work crying about it. This made me smile. Thank you:)

[–]magicmurph 2 points3 points ago

I have a similar one

[–]atxchillbro 4 points5 points ago

He looks like a nice crystally nug. Edit: Just saw the other post. No "Fixed" ?!?

[–]THEBillcosby 2 points3 points ago

He looks like some really nice weed.

[–]GoodLeftUndone 2 points3 points ago

I give it 24 hours before apple sues for this.

[–]steevrock 2 points3 points ago

Is it me...or does Oscar look like a delicious nugg?!

[–]SuedoNymph 1 point2 points ago

I have obviously jumped on the "this is my new wallpaper" bandwagon. It certainly is inspirational.

[–]pitythaf00l 1 point2 points ago

I love this. It's been my wallpaper for a couple months still makes me smile every time I see it.

[–]ultramegadank 1 point2 points ago

It's all about the typography

[–]Crabalicious 1 point2 points ago

You aspire to his green, beardedness.

[–]kkkilla 1 point2 points ago

"i'm made of weed"

[–]Thewhitebread 1 point2 points ago

Romney's just trying to put Oscar back work by eliminating his PBS government welfare.

[–]Hornetsmakehoney 1 point2 points ago

His skin looks like weed

[–]GnarlesBrewkowski 1 point2 points ago

Oscar and I have similar philosophies.

[–]mrmartis 1 point2 points ago

This looks like the apple font, maybe they made this because of ios6

[–]cupcakedemon 1 point2 points ago

He looks like weed just saying

[–]Mattson 1 point2 points ago

this used to be my desktop after the first time it popped up on reddit

[–]duBiYou 1 point2 points ago

He could live in a plastic trashcan.

[–]Thefriendlyfaceplant 1 point2 points ago

Wow those eyes are remarkably shoddily done.

"You see what you don't understand...Is that I make love to my hand..I don't need you honey, I BEAT MY DICK LIKE IT OWES ME MONEY...That's why....I say FUCK IT!"

[–]The_Bangs 1 point2 points ago

He actually has a pretty sweet pad. There's a scene in Elmo's movie i think.

[–]shikza 1 point2 points ago

He has a proud, resigned thing about him.

[–]spyder22446688 1 point2 points ago

Stoicism at its finest (the quote, anyways).

[–]Tylanner 1 point2 points ago

"This high res image of Oscar actually shows that he is very clean and well kept."

[–]tehnico 1 point2 points ago

Right up there with "So it goes."

I love the passive acceptance and dismissal. Gets the bad off instantly.

[–]haimana 1 point2 points ago

this is now my facebook cover

[–]snoogins355 1 point2 points ago

Is Oscar just a talking nugget?

[–]dogstarchampion 1 point2 points ago

Looked like an Apple ad.

[–]zippx 1 point2 points ago

lol, this has been my desktop background for a year. I look at it everyday and nod my head in agreement.

[–]narwhal_of_death 1 point2 points ago

Oscar had it rough, but that didn't stop him from grouching.

[–]lostmygravitas 1 point2 points ago

His name should be "Oscar the Realist who gets it" instead of "Oscar the Grouch". It's yet another example of the fake society where only pretend happy people are seen as healthy.

[–]omg_gtfo 1 point2 points ago

This is now my desktop background.

[–]yeahmaybe 1 point2 points ago

When you're in a pretty low place, "shit could be worse" isn't inspirational at all.

[–]robbieh 1 point2 points ago

Hes made of weed

[–]SlimJim2012 1 point2 points ago

I never realized this before but he looks a bit like Charlton Heston O_o

[–]kylechloe66 1 point2 points ago

[–]draxxil 1 point2 points ago

I want this tattooed on my soul. Tattoo parlors do that kind of thing, right?

[–]E5Ky 1 point2 points ago

Love it, my son is in hospital now 3 days and he is only 15 months. He loves Oscar , he couldn't give a dam about Elmo and others..I sent this to my wife who is with him while I am in transit to attend a funeral. Not the best day but it can always be worse

[–]cdank 1 point2 points ago

This has been my mantra ever since I saw this picture years ago. Wise words to live by.

[–]mse12 1 point2 points ago

This has been my laptop background for roughly a year and will continue to be for a very long time.

[–]kemaiping 1 point2 points ago

This is a nice high quality picture. If you zoom in sufficiently on Oscar's eyebrow region, you could be looking at a High Times photo of some kush

[–]Coenn 1 point2 points ago

I need more of these! Like, exactly the same with different puppes like the muppets and text. For example: One with beaker and text like: "at least I didn't explode."

[–]RetroGlideWerewolf 1 point2 points ago

I've been having a horrible week and this made me cry with laughter. Thank you.
