This took careful planning

Clairebbg · 2012-10-12T20:44:36+00:00

if that was taken yesterday, it would be on 10/11/12

surly_redditor · 2012-10-13T00:11:50+00:00

TIL it takes careful planning to subtract 789 from 123456

stickaslap · 2012-10-12T22:22:48+00:00

....Now what?

k3ilbasa · 2012-10-12T20:01:58+00:00

It's the little things..

ThBurninator · 2012-10-12T21:10:38+00:00

One of these days I want to see one of these pictures, but I want the speedometer to be maxed out. That would make me smile.

vxx · 2012-10-12T20:02:15+00:00

And you almost missed it. I am glad you didn't

TooManyBearz · 2012-10-12T22:45:32+00:00

FUCKING /r/mildlyinteresting

kingy123 · 2012-10-12T22:46:42+00:00

Citroen ZX?

Piefayth · 2012-10-13T00:46:59+00:00

And you said you'd never use math.

open_organ · 2012-10-13T00:53:24+00:00

It took careful planning....what is 123456-789? It took me months how to plan to subtract that.

kenjunior · 2012-10-13T01:13:52+00:00

mine today

NabroleonDynamite · 2012-10-13T03:31:11+00:00

Hope that karma was worth wasting all that gas. Seriously I have no idea why people do this. It's not cool. It was just ok the first time I ever saw it. Then someone mixed it up by making it spell boobs. But now every one of these pictures is basically a repost.

addman1405 · 2012-10-13T04:10:35+00:00

OH man, another speedometer that is sequential! Better take a picture and post it on Reddit!

jdb-44 · 2012-10-13T02:35:25+00:00

Here's mine - one of the most significant moments in my life. I used to have "44" as my lucky number, so...http://imgur.com/ce03S.

Sorry for the small/blurry pic, but the phone on my camera is lame.

TIL "careful planning" means subtracting two numbers.

Vesania6 · 2012-10-13T00:06:31+00:00

'' wandered in the city until goal achieved ''

tricky3737 · 2012-10-13T00:20:27+00:00

The real question here, who can tell me what car's gauge that is?

polkadotsunday · 2012-10-13T00:22:33+00:00

My car is planning on being 123456 in about 400 miles, hopefully I get to catch it.

floydwiley · 2012-10-13T00:29:43+00:00

Or this guy could work at a junkyard. News at 11.

alman520 · 2012-10-13T00:38:03+00:00

I did that too recently! Although not as awesome as you.

MrZurkon89 · 2012-10-13T00:50:18+00:00

my ocd senses are tingling

sittty · 2012-10-13T00:53:40+00:00

my brain hurts just thinking of the planning that went into something like this.

Galactic777 · 2012-10-13T01:00:31+00:00

That's pretty fucking impressive

MeinCrouton · 2012-10-13T01:11:54+00:00

Or you could just go to a junk yard, get a broken one, change it to the right ones and BOOM! Let the karma whoring begin.

Rambonage · 2012-10-13T01:15:41+00:00

Oh my god. This happened to me a few days ago. I was a few miles away and I thought to myself "Oh man when it gets to 123456 I need to take a picture" and then I missed it.

ank1613 · 2012-10-13T02:02:41+00:00

I took this same photo about two years ago. Refused to drive that day.

MadProphetHowardB · 2012-10-13T05:44:18+00:00

You should drive faster

Funkhauzer · 2012-10-13T05:52:25+00:00

Oh wow you copied and pasted a fucking picture congrats dude! Who are the retards upvoting these posts?

tankertodd · 2012-10-13T06:03:38+00:00

Careful planning or just math? Hardest part of this is remembering to look down and see the numbers hit.

mammeor · 2012-10-13T07:25:07+00:00

i don't get it, is it like a phone number or something?

SatinHandyWipe · 2012-10-13T07:47:05+00:00

Or just taking the dash off and winding it like that.

puress90 · 2012-10-13T08:34:00+00:00

http://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/kqqb3/this_took_far_more_planning_than_i_care_to_admit/

A YEAR AGO. NICE TRY OP.

egusw · 2012-10-13T08:46:21+00:00

Well played, my friend. Well played.

TimBobSqrPnts · 2012-10-13T09:33:21+00:00

Mine recently ticked over. is that a Citroen of some description?

310_nightstalkers · 2012-10-13T09:35:34+00:00

how careful do you have to be to reset your tripometer at 122667?

cake_a_peice · 2012-10-12T23:28:13+00:00

I don't care

drunkenfool · 2012-10-13T00:10:43+00:00

but you failed to carefully take a picture? nice blurr, you were parked even!

pastanate · 2012-10-13T02:33:44+00:00

Relevant

Geig · 2012-10-12T20:10:00+00:00

how could you do something so reckless.. you could have killed someone taking a picture at that speed....

for shame!

darthbone · 2012-10-12T23:21:56+00:00

Not it didn't. It just took subtracting 789 from 123456

Crawlerado · 2012-10-12T22:38:28+00:00

Also knows as maths.

Currently_SitB · 2012-10-13T02:04:36+00:00

Because I don't know if I'll ever be able to post this related image, I shall do so now. Hit this as I parked my car about a week ago.

samsf90 · 2012-10-13T02:05:40+00:00

cuttin it close there guy.

CauseItsTrue · 2012-10-13T02:11:57+00:00

driving down the highway gingerly...

"Fuckin pull over!"

"What, why"

"FUCK'N PULL OVER!"

Drewdle883 · 2012-10-13T02:28:05+00:00

Grr! I've had a picture the same as this on my old phone for about 3 months but never bothered to upload it, took me 2 hours driving around a services car park to get it. Enjoy your karma.

hankharp00n · 2012-10-13T02:32:13+00:00

My absolute favorite thing about this is that you took the picture at a stop. Bravo sir! Most of the rest of reddit would have been going 80 in a school zone taking pictures with their SLR behind their head....

whyteboi · 2012-10-13T02:39:58+00:00

Here is the one I got in my company's shop truck earlier this week. http://i.imgur.com/CQlDV.jpg I just got lucky.

TheYugoslav · 2012-10-13T02:52:14+00:00

I was looking at the very off speed dial for a minute, then saw the mileage.

Mellenoire · 2012-10-13T02:52:47+00:00

Mine's sitting at 12,1something something and my mum's borrowing it today. Secretly I hope she doesn't decide to drive somewhere random for fun.

KCP100 · 2012-10-13T02:55:31+00:00

My car is about there. I am going to have to watch for this and pull over immediately.

divzd · 2012-10-13T02:58:30+00:00

Am I wrong in assuming your careful planning was calculating 123,456 - 7,890 and starting the mile count there?

Almost wish I had more miles on my car so I could do this sooner....

bedazzledfingernails · 2012-10-13T03:11:25+00:00

What this reminds me of

SgtVeritas · 2012-10-13T03:13:50+00:00

It took lots of planning to achieve and 1 mile to undo...

AOEUD · 2012-10-13T03:20:38+00:00

Well, sucky number set. But an upvote for getting it on both meters.

jollyguru · 2012-10-13T03:31:40+00:00

123456-7890=careful planning

Hotshot55 · 2012-10-13T03:41:17+00:00

My mom stops in the middle of the road to take pictures like this

RAPE_LASER · 2012-10-13T03:48:21+00:00

Hey what's that instruction just left of the 120? It's about posts like these.

NNYPhillipJFry · 2012-10-13T03:52:56+00:00

Careful planning and a few laps around the block perhaps.

jodon · 2012-10-13T03:55:37+00:00

I'm waiting for the day when I see one of these with the speeder on 120.

zax007 · 2012-10-13T03:55:47+00:00

while that might be impressive i'm waiting for someone to post a 654321 and proof that the car still runs

What_is_this_1990 · 2012-10-13T04:38:21+00:00

Glad to see you didn't take this picture while moving. Or moving fast at least, not sure how well your speedometer is calibrated. Upvote for safety!

hi_in_Humboldt · 2012-10-13T04:42:02+00:00

Astonishing! Dang, good sir!

mykchap · 2012-10-13T05:14:33+00:00

Awesome

xshark · 2012-10-13T05:18:42+00:00

Just recently tried this with 98765 4321. . . but failed when it came to taking the picture. Nice job.

XxtrainxX · 2012-10-13T05:34:18+00:00

That is godly

alavoisier · 2012-10-12T21:51:30+00:00

fake. why is the bottom half blurred in a different direction and magnitude than the top half?
