[–]batpony 62 points63 points ago

OP didn't even change the title. That's low.

[–]halogrand 102 points103 points ago

He went full repost. Never go full repost.

[–]stamatt45 4 points5 points ago

His 500+ upvotes suggest otherwise. The mods need to tag reposts because most people obviously don't check the comments

[–]Obvious0ne 5 points6 points ago

damn - I always forget about karmadecay... I just happened to remember this one.

[–]donutsalad 3 points4 points ago

First repost that I've actually seen before.

[–]fayehanna 1 point2 points ago

Yup. I wouldn't normally have said anything but the op was acting like it was some crazy thing that never happened to anyone else. Plus this picture has been around for ages

[–]donutsalad 0 points1 point ago

Ages? I'm not a rocket detective but I just figured the OP of this image made it six months ago. Which really isn't that old.

[–]MrConfucius 1 point2 points ago

I remember it too. I was like, Oh! I've genuinely never seen this one before. Click

[–]gammarayzzz 2 points3 points ago

8 months and your first repost? Show me your ways...

[–]donutsalad 0 points1 point ago

In /r/funny. I've seen things reposted in other sections but I always figure they found it, thought it was cool and posted it without seeing if it was posted before, which is always okay because not everyone has seen it and somethings are funny or interesting enough to still be cool after viewing it a second time. Most people just think the world revolves around them and the idea of seeing something twice is like rusty barbed spikes in their anus. This guy may have straight up copied the original post but I'm sure /r/funny obtained new visitors in the past 6 months and we have a voting system for content anyway so it really isn't a big deal. I didn't upvote this post before because I thought it was stupid, who the fuck rubs up against door knobs like that, and it really belongs in /r/pics or something...

[–]gammarayzzz 1 point2 points ago

Fair enough. I really hate when people bitch about seeing something before. It's like, okay, yeah maybe a few of you have seen it. But if it's upvoted a shitton of times, obviously not everyone's seen it.

[–]Amateur_Ninja 0 points1 point ago

I never seem to catch reposts.

[–]rainjur 0 points1 point ago

And here I was thinking I was slightly crazy because I swore I'd seen that title before.

Come on OP.

[–]Prinsn 0 points1 point ago

Pretty sure that's the same door :3

[–]iLiketrains131 1 point2 points ago

I signed in on a public computer just to downvote this post (not the comment, op is fag.)

[–]If_Repost_Then_Boobs 90 points91 points ago

[–]WellEndowedMod[M] 27 points28 points ago

Replies only to reposts.

Gives a bolded NSFW tag before the picture.

Posts boobs.

MOD SEAL OF APPROVAL.

[–]gammarayzzz 10 points11 points ago

It's all better, folks. This man saved the day. Everyone calm the fuck down.

[–]Obvious0ne 28 points29 points ago

well, clearly it happens to the person in the picture, which has been on Reddit before.

[–]jinjoon 13 points14 points ago

no one say anything so OP misplaces his shit.

[–]saultymoosepickles 10 points11 points ago

Reddit really needs karmawhore user tags

[–]gammarayzzz 2 points3 points ago

Did someone say.. Reddit Enhancement Suite?

[–]saultymoosepickles 0 points1 point ago

Yes but that only shows up on my computer

[–]wickedwonderful 7 points8 points ago

It happens to me all the time! But I thought it was because I'm kindof round and bumbly.

[–]katlaish 2 points3 points ago

bumbly. lovely word.

[–]godzillab10 3 points4 points ago

I've lost many a belt loop to handled doors.

[–]Nateosis 6 points7 points ago

Yup been there.

[–]FlockofSeagulls 2 points3 points ago

At least 3 times a year for me.

[–]Winchester_Dean 2 points3 points ago

Even worse when it's a drawer handle.

Then you have to clean up torn jeans and all the silverware you own.

[–]pizzasoup 2 points3 points ago

Yeah, there was one time where I had just finished watching The Grudge in the dark basement of a friend's house. I went upstairs to use the bathroom. Finished, washed my hands, then on the way out, something grabs my pants and pulls me back. I rocketed out of that bathroom like a bat out of hell. Took me 10 minutes to figure out that it was just the loop on my carpenter jeans catching the knob of a drawer and not some demonic Japanese entity.

[–]Mindcraft74 2 points3 points ago

Why would you lose your shit? Is that the bathroom door handle you got stuck on?

[–]AfroHoe 1 point2 points ago

It happened to me once. Second day of class I was wearing thin shorts and they ripped off. My professor was pretty shocked by the sight of these cute hamburger and hotdog underwear. And I had to walk all the way to my car with my brown booty out(im black). Was a pretty sad day for me.

[–]chairface87 3 points4 points ago

So, now that you're out in the open. Why? Why would you repost, knowing that you are making a bad call?

[–]Venerable 1 point2 points ago

Please don't be as bad as 9fag. 9fag literally copy/pastes everything, changing one word here or there every so often. I got sick one time. And what I did RIGHT before I got sick, I visited 9fag and saw all the copy/paste stolen material. 9fag is poisonous to me.

[–]Jwillis94 2 points3 points ago

Overly Attached Door.

[–]zugunruh3 1 point2 points ago

I have spilled so many drinks by having the door grab my pants. Damn you, grabby door handle.

[–]woo_who_farted 0 points1 point ago

Yep. I've lost a belt loop this way. Maybe one day I'll pay attention to where I'm walking and slow down a little.

[–]jdinmd 0 points1 point ago

More than once...

[–]Octopusbread 2 points3 points ago

No you're literally the only person in the world that this happens to

[–]maximba 0 points1 point ago

Dishwasher door handle does that to my zip fly all the time!

[–]Kluuvdar -1 points0 points ago

It happens to me all the time, and I get pissed.

[–]EthiopianChica 0 points1 point ago

I did it on my way to my first lecture, and fell down the stairs. It was the wrong class too.

[–]goalieperson 0 points1 point ago

oh hell yeah. This happens to me on cabinet handles all the time and it is the worst fucking thing possible

[–]BadRussell 0 points1 point ago

Do you live at a copper beech, or some other cheap college home apartments?

[–]honglath 0 points1 point ago

It happens to other people.

[–]hanzibonzi 0 points1 point ago

We can repost comments too!...Hello fellow 5'10'' human being!

[–]Hax0r101 2 points3 points ago

Nope. You're the only one with jeans or doors.

[–]JonSnowTheBastid 0 points1 point ago

Oh my god and it always happens at that moment where your about to snap and go on a mass murder rampage

Awkward moment when your door tries to sexually harass you.

[–]Kirfactor 0 points1 point ago

I knew a girl who impaled herself on a doorknob like that once. She was trying to avoid being shot with a nerf gun.

[–]HotTubThomas 1 point2 points ago

No. It doesn't.

[–]Argit 0 points1 point ago

Oh yeah... and in pockets as well. I once ripped open my pants pocket.

[–]C_M_O_TDibbler 0 points1 point ago

All the fucking time! walking along happy as Larry then BANG torn jeans then broken door and sore fist

[–]WuWarrior 0 points1 point ago

Why don't you just unhook it, and continue on into the bathroom and lose your shit there.

[–]aYANKinEIRE 1 point2 points ago

Repost or not, that did happen to me at work last night and sent a full tray of drinks hurtling into a table of women, and while cleaning it up, the strap of my waistcoat caught on to a hook behind the bar and sent me straight into the back bar crashing into 3 bottles of vodka. Today I will be mostly staying in bed avoiding all other clumsiness.

[–]NotNaut 0 points1 point ago

This seems to only happen to me when I',m really stoned.

[–]Dahmerifics 0 points1 point ago

yes.

[–]Vgore762 0 points1 point ago

[–]DyslexicLlamas 0 points1 point ago

One time this happened to me, bit it was my utensil drawer, long story short I spent the next 10 mins picking up cutlery.

[–]MyCodesCompiling 0 points1 point ago

Yep, this happened the other day. I managed to keep my belt loop, but my next step did send me swinging round and faceplanting into the other side of the door

[–]Wackoverlord 0 points1 point ago

Yup. The worst one was at school i was holding a tray of freshly dissected frog and a couple razor blades that i used to dissect it. I was walking to the sink and my belt loop got caught on the drawer handle, fell backwards, dropped all my shit, covered in dead frog. Was not fun.

[–]mrdink064 0 points1 point ago

My pocket knife clip gets snagged on doors and shit all the time

[–]JordanRodkey 0 points1 point ago

I don't get new pants because they are worn out, I get new pants because I can't wear belts with them anymore.

[–]vegasmash 0 points1 point ago

I once almost died.

[–]KickItNext 0 points1 point ago

Once I was swinging on a pull-up bar I had in my doorway and a jumped off. My belt loop caught the door handle and I did a full backflip to land on my back. It was wild.

My keys are on a lanyard that I keep in my pocket. Doors have stolen my keys too many damn times.

[–]ex_stripper 0 points1 point ago

It only seems to happen to me when my arms are full.

[–]ninjajake1499 1 point2 points ago

Wow. He could have at least taken a new picture and made a new title. This is a new level of pathetic. This was bad, and you should feel bad.

[–]aeon_ducks 0 points1 point ago

YES.

[–]LuckyDuck77 1 point2 points ago

Who the fuck still clicks the little fucking up arrow for stupid fucking reposts?

[–]Viewtiful_7 0 points1 point ago

Repost or not, I've had this shit happen on the handrail to go down the stairs. Not happy camper time.

[–]LordoftheGodKings 0 points1 point ago

This happens to me literally every day. I have destroyed more clothing this way. I feel your pain brother. Let us now howl into the night and consume meat flavored beverages!

[–]ThisIsChad 0 points1 point ago

Yeah. I accidentally tucked my t-shirt into my jeans once, too. I was horrible.

[–]wovaka 0 points1 point ago

i have tried that several times. also had this experience once when i was running through a doorway, my jacket got caught on the knob, i swang around with the door through the air and faceplanted.

[–]SnowmaneVH 0 points1 point ago

One word: athletic pants.

[–]theamplifiedorganic 0 points1 point ago

I don't care if it's a repost. It's a danger to humanity, and somebody must man the warning signals.

[–]LittleBigKid2000 0 points1 point ago

How does that even happen? Do people do this on purpose just to get karma?

[–]thatguysammo 0 points1 point ago

I've actually had a door handle wrip off my belt loop

[–]paulw793 0 points1 point ago

Belt loops are never the same after this. I know your feels.

[–]Jwheezy95 0 points1 point ago

[–]missyxoxo 0 points1 point ago

[–]wawawub 0 points1 point ago

Imagin your just chilen and then you get strangled for a split second and then your on your ass on the most sore way posible (sorry if my spelling /grammer sucks but i am on my ipod touch)

[–]likethechesspiece 0 points1 point ago

Yep. Caught my ID badge on the door handle and ripped it off. It ended up on the wrong side of the door and I had to explain it all to security so I could get back into work.

[–]merulian 1 point2 points ago

ALL THE TIME. I've torn pants and shirts because of this. Scumbag door handle.

[–]omnichronos 0 points1 point ago

That you realize your belt loop is hooked on the door handle? Nope. Mine ripped my belt loop off before I noticed.

[–]Stephiek 1 point2 points ago

On a daily fucking basis. On pockets, purses...anything I'm carrying in my hands. Those things hate me.

[–]spoilz 1 point2 points ago

Hell yes! I have ruined so many articles of clothing because of this.

[–]MakingGirlsJuice 0 points1 point ago

I've ripped the loops of a pair of jeans and shorts doing this.

[–]RickyMaveety 1 point2 points ago

Every damn day and with every damn knob in the damn house.

[–]not_a_name_ 0 points1 point ago

happens to me all the time with my cargo pockets

[–]dredawg 0 points1 point ago

Something similar happened to me in high school. I was walking sideways past a bunch of people in shop class and the vice grip bar on the workbench caught in my zipper. It ripped my pants all the way down to the cuff.

Not my fondest memory from those days.

[–]earlybird_2ndmouse 0 points1 point ago

FUCK YOU!

[–]blaze8902 0 points1 point ago

Is there some kind of door handle monopoly I'm not aware of?

[–]brussels4breakfast 0 points1 point ago

My front door handle is exactly like this. My purse strap gets caught in it sometimes and it scares the shit out of me when I'm home alone.

[–]sammy_173910 0 points1 point ago

happened to me one day while walking with a bowl of noodles. i got caught and my noodles went flying into the living room and i was still caught there with the empty bowl in my hand.

[–]bKenji 0 points1 point ago

hahaha its all good definitely hate getting hung up like that.

[–]UnknownChink 0 points1 point ago

Clicked picture, saw that it was repost, went to comments, Ctrl+F boobs, satisfied.

[–]TracyEid 0 points1 point ago

All the time.

[–]JRPAPES 0 points1 point ago

I'm pretty sure it only happens to other people.

[–]amyneko 0 points1 point ago

I hate when that happens with the kitchen drawer and i spill half my food because of it -_-

[–]redroseplague 0 points1 point ago

Yes, happens quite often to me and i absolutely hate it.

All the effing time!

[–]jslats1618 0 points1 point ago

Every fucking day dude. #Solidarity

[–]bibbi123 0 points1 point ago

Absolutely. I call it my superpower. I can get extraneous bits of clothing caught on frictionless surfaces.

It works even more spectacularly with a purse.

[–]Joseph_12 0 points1 point ago

Only a redditor would get their pants stuck on the door knob and immediately think, "Reddit would love this."

[–]tehgreatiam 0 points1 point ago

door knobs, bro.

[–]BrieAndGrape 0 points1 point ago

FUCK THIS SHIT! Yes this happens to me all the time. One of the most irritating first world problems ever

[–]BIG_BUCK 0 points1 point ago

[–]christianaustin 0 points1 point ago

Wear a belt you hippie.

[–]JAG12 0 points1 point ago

All the damn time...and the pockets of my pajama pants too!

[–]Boineau_CDS16 0 points1 point ago

All the time!!!

[–]WellEndowedMod 0 points1 point ago

Wear a belt- it'll happen less/never again.

[–]Skwerley 0 points1 point ago

It absolutely does, people repost the same picture all the time.

[–]Rage29 0 points1 point ago

You didn't even change the title of this repost

[–]mordengel 0 points1 point ago

I have ripped pants because of this. I have fallen down a flight of stairs because of this. I have destroyed a door (albeit a shitty, thin indoor one) because of this.

WORLDS burn because of this.

[–]SS_sailor 0 points1 point ago

In the kitchen Oh shit its got meh its got meh!

Mom-you okay? Me-no mom, the cabinet, its over...

[–]SirBenjamin 0 points1 point ago

I have it happen to me at least once a month.

This crops up on TV show gag reels on occasion, particularly sitcoms. Check out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=ULHHQiFfK9o#t=563s

[–]WastedWiFi 0 points1 point ago

In Jonathan Goldsmith's voice

This doesn't always happen to me But when it does... Im by myself and want to strangle the next thing I see.

But by the time I actually see someone I forgot this happened

[–]NewWhirledOrder 0 points1 point ago

How hard would it have been to just stick your belt loop over a doorknob...take a picture of it and post it? Why do people keep reposting the same one? It's not like you need to be good at photoshop or anything...jeeez. : )

[–]NewWhirledOrder 0 points1 point ago

Oh and keep your shit in mason jars that way you'll always know where it is. Since you insist on saving it.

[–]Ozzertron -1 points0 points ago

OK, gather round kids, it's time for a story.

First, we need to go back about 4 years or so to when I was around 16. Both my parents were out, and I was taking one of my world-class poops.

But before I got down to business, I noticed that mum must have recently found the key to the toilet door and had hung it on a coathook attached to said door. I thought to myself "I wonder if that lock still works" and promptly proceeded to lock myself in.

I certainly don't remember having any problems with my business, no, the trouble came afterwards. You see, it turns out that the lock did not work and would not work no matter what I tried. Seriously, I turned that fucker as hard as I could and ended up bending the handle on the key a little.

You can see why I was concerned.

Dad wouldn't be back for a couple of hours, and I was trapped in the toilet.

Shit just got real.

I sat on my seat pondering what to do. I really didn't want to wait the entire time but I didn't seem to have much of a choice; my cellphone was elsewhere and even still it seems like it would be a pretty embarassing situation to be stuck in. That was when I considered the window option. We had a small window overlooking the greenhouse and watertank, and if I made it through that thing it would only be a short climd to the fire escape running down the side of our house. Now, I'm not the slimmest of guys, and I was thinner in my younger days but I wasn't too bad and thought I could handle it. For reference, since I'm not at home now, if I had to hazard a guess I would say the window was about the same width as the distance from one end of your Ctrl key to the other, with a bar in the middle separating it and another window pane.

Anyway, back to the story. So to start off, I stood on the wooden toilet seat (seat closed), using it as a stepping stone to freedom. Standing on the window sill, edging my way out, I could almost taste the freedo- ...

Wait why am I stuck? I was halfway through, it's almost as if some invisible force was pulling me back, stopping me from escaping my smelly prison prematurely. Using my free hand I feel around, searching for the source of distress until I found it.

My fucking belt loop was caught on the window latch.

Like, that fucker was goddam wedged in there.

Using the strength of 1000 elephants, I forced my way out of there. OK, second problem. How the fuck did I think that I could rech that easily?

Ok, deep breaths, just one foot on the drain-pipe and then this nightmare will be over. I'll let you play some more Fallout 3, my brain told me. You like that remember? To this day I am still unaware how it managed to support my weight. And this was high up too, easily broken bone sort of drop. Finally managing to reach the fire escape, I clambered down to freedom as I looked up to feel proud of my escape from the bathroom.

Feeling my belt loop on the back I saw that it's lower half had become distached from my jeans and now sort of stood to attention in an undignified little tail kind of thing. I decided to leave it as it was in reminder to myself so I never made that mistake again.

tl;dr Locked myself in the bathroom, mission impossible'd my way out of there.

[–]tmburgess 0 points1 point ago

I've ripped my pants doing this -.-

[–]LordFendleberry 0 points1 point ago

I have ruined many pants because of that shit.

[–]chrisfinley98 0 points1 point ago

I have never had that happen to me. You are by yourself OP.

[–]judehoffman 0 points1 point ago

About once a month. Kind of like this post.

[–]ncour 0 points1 point ago

The thing that bothers me endlessly and ticks me off beyond belief is when my earphones get caught on the door knob and rip out of my ears. I HATE that.

[–]Freded21 0 points1 point ago

This pic has a special place in my heart. This was the first thing I ever saw on Reddit. 6 months ago. I still remember the top comment. <3

[–]RonPaulTwenty16 0 points1 point ago

I once did this on a cupboard door in my kitchen and ripped the whole thing off. My father beat me.

[–]mavrickjc 1 point2 points ago

This happened to me while I was carrying a casket out the front doors of a church.

[–]Treythemanhall 0 points1 point ago

i hate handles like that they have ruined many of my jeans

[–]hawaiikawika 0 points1 point ago

If that is the bathroom door and you were in a hurry, it is possible you already lost your shit.

[–]PolarBearIcePop 0 points1 point ago

all the fucking time.

[–]HiG33k 0 points1 point ago

Please stay out of my house.

[–]LeonProfessional 1 point2 points ago

You didn't even change the title, fuck you.

[–]user_name2 2 points3 points ago

You couldn't even come up with an original title.

[–]cursed_deity 2 points3 points ago

i think it does because you didn't take the picture yourself, you merely reposted it.

[–]Alexios_dickening 1 point2 points ago

Unless that person was walking backwards there is no way that the pants got caught in that door handle.
