this has no business in this subreddit. Someone else posted it in /r/pics and it at least made sense there.

[–]treecosy 74 points75 points ago

No kidding. They're both on the frontpage right now. Look at this shit.

[–]voices_told_me_so 6 points7 points ago

Well... makes sense... /r/wtf is /r/funny

[–]comport -1 points0 points ago

People are flipping their shit over how cute it is, but in reality it's probably in enormous distress!

[–]danE3030 15 points16 points ago

I loved it when I first saw it on /r/pics and thought to myself, "Glad they didn't post this to /r/wtf!"

Somehow, an hour later, the top two posts on my frontpage are of this same pic, one from /r/funny and one here. The only thing wtf about this is how many times its been posted and how much success its had, reddit can be a fucking depressing place sometimes.

[–]emZi 14 points15 points ago

If you're getting depressed because of Reddit, it might be a good time to better prioritize your life.

[–]Itchy_Koala 6 points7 points ago

You might have taken that statement a little too literally.

[–]djlewt 0 points1 point ago

It'd be so damn literal!

[–]mikielikie 1 point2 points ago

"Theyre making karma off of something un-original and Im not! I better bitch about it so I can get some karma as well!"

*brought to you by the third level bitchkarmahunter

[–]danE3030 0 points1 point ago

I agree, but it is a compulsion at this point.

Also, reddit has a lot of redeeming qualities, the key is to stay subscribed to the right subreddits, and, more importantly, stay unsubbed from the wrong ones. These days, the unfortunate reality is that many of my favorite subreddits are falling slowly into that category; it just takes me awhile to accept/acknowledge it because I've liked them for so long (/r/fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuu being a prime example).

[–]midbc -1 points0 points ago

it's sad that people have to resort to being karma whores for useless points to make themselves feel good........karma whores suck ass

[–]thescrapplekid 2 points3 points ago

Agreed, this belongs in r/funny

[–]Hyperparadise 3 points4 points ago

It's already there

[–]thescrapplekid 2 points3 points ago

Yup, that's why I agreed

[–]all_my_rage 2 points3 points ago

/r/funny (add a / to the front of it for the hyperlink)

[–]thescrapplekid 0 points1 point ago

Its already there

[–]BuzzKillingtonThe4th 2 points3 points ago

AND in /r/pics

[–]Fhajad 0 points1 point ago

I only noticed as I was going down my frontpage and was sure it was #1, so I wasn't sure what the fuck it was doing a double.

Fuckin' shit.

[–]Yantu 0 points1 point ago

At least this one doesn't have a typo in the title!

[–]Thundernut -1 points0 points ago

Reddit has become nothing but a kharma race. I honestly get annoyed more by just coming on reddit and seeing all the reposts than I do enjoying what I find.

[–]BondoMondo 0 points1 point ago

What news paper was this in? Anyone know off hand? i want to see if there is a on line pic. I read it was in a UK papper.

[–]pungkowisadick -3 points-2 points ago

TIL, pungkow is a dick. It's funny. Quit bitching about subreddits.

[–]nategamer01 68 points69 points ago

same photos on front page, c'mon Reddit!

[–]NextName 8 points9 points ago

What the shit is this? People seriously upvoted the same constantly reposted picture to the front page twice in the same hour?

[–]PerilPhoSho 14 points15 points ago

Seriously. Downvote this shit people, we can do it!

[–]vuxa 0 points1 point ago

Are you honestly surprised?

[–]wallawalla22 0 points1 point ago

So if I repost the top comment from the other two times this was on the front page today, nobody will notice right?

[–]publ1c_stat1c -3 points-2 points ago

Now I get what all the people who whine about reposts are complaining about.

[–]MedievalManagement 36 points37 points ago

This was already submitted to the proper (default) subreddit. There was absolutely no need to repost it to the wrong (default) subreddit an hour later.

[–]TheManitee 10 points11 points ago

[–]NakedPancake 7 points8 points ago

This does not belong in WTF.

[–]lost_my_bearings 2 points3 points ago

[–]djramrod 12 points13 points ago

Such blatant karma whoring. Is there no shame?!

[–]shanks31 6 points7 points ago

This is is on my front page... twice.

[–]AnEnglishDoctor 5 points6 points ago

You couldn't even wait a day to repost this?!

[–]SNL4realz 20 points21 points ago

HAS ANYONE SEEN MY NUTS?!

[–]gloriously_offtopic 18 points19 points ago

This is more common than you think. My mother gave birth to me one cold day in Autumn and I was forgotten like yesterday's newsreel. I was trapped inside of a screened porch, unable to find water or food. I am sure it had to have been for several hours.

Eventually, some people found me and took me in. Since there was no record of my birth, I was given a new name and taken to a more hospitable place than outside in the cold. It's a shame that it had to come to this, but I suppose that's how life is.

This family had a nice bathroom, and they gave me a bath. Or so I thought, anyway. I was sat in the sink and they turned the water on. It was cold and I tried to climb out. But every time I reached the edge, they put me back in again.

The water went on, and then off again. Over and over they did this. They wanted to make sure I was right near the drain so I would go down into it. Eventually my strength gave out and I slipped into the drain. I could hear them laughing as my little eyes adjusted to the darkness.

By early the next morning, I had crawled back up to the drain and into the light once more. Just as I thought my survival was for certain, a huge white cock was brandished high above . Yellow piss gushed in a massive stream and quickly filled the sink enough to float me.

The piss burned and I released my only defense- a foul smelling odor that is kind of like cucumbers but smells more like sour ass. The guy with the cock laughed as I again slipped into the drain. I fucking hate being a stinkbug, no one likes me. Maybe tomorrow I'll make it out before another golden thunderstorm.

TL;DR- Abuse and fear.

[–]Furiouss06 2 points3 points ago

This was gloriously WTF worthy.

[–]lukelear 2 points3 points ago

Damnit, gloriously_offtopic, can you just stay on topic for once?

[–]Journalisto -1 points0 points ago

Sorry, I'm busy looking for mine after 10 years of drinking Pabst Blue Ribbon every night.

[–]Kranitz21 1 point2 points ago

reeeeeeeeepost

[–]BrohemianRhapsody 8 points9 points ago

This is literally one of the top links on /r/funny right now

[–]redditor3000 6 points7 points ago

The photographer put nuts into the head and waited.

[–]why_fist_puppies 1 point2 points ago

[–]FLYbaconhawkFLY 2 points3 points ago

OP. If you're going to repost, wait a few weeks before you do. When you do it in the same day, people catch on to your karma whoring bullshit. Unfortunately, it looks like you're getting a downvote.

[–]FENTOOOON 0 points1 point ago

"OMG A POST ON THE FRONT PAGE THAT IS SO WORTHY OF WTF! BETTER XPOST IT!" -O "cancer" P

[–]Mountytime 2 points3 points ago

Repost anyways

[–]yanksrock1000 1 point2 points ago

Dear Diary, Today, OP was a faggot.

[–]rprebel 3 points4 points ago

/r/funny is where the funny things go.

[–]LayF 3 points4 points ago

DOWNVOTE YOU TO HELL

[–]Duck_Duck_Gonorrhea 1 point2 points ago

costume of the year award goes to squirrel.

[–]MrMojoRisin5211 2 points3 points ago

The least RP (re-poster) could've done is given credit where credit is due. But NOPE. Fuck you RP.

[–]string97bean 0 points1 point ago

Don't let him fool you, he knew what he was doing.

[–]Journalisto 1 point2 points ago

I'm sure it's just a tactic to earn free hand-outs. Squirrels know how to play the game and winter's coming.

[–]ClownsInJumpsuits 1 point2 points ago

funny, so did OP.

[–]The_last_Wadey 0 points1 point ago

HOLY SHIT I LIVE IN FAREHAM, FINALLY SAMETHING FROM MY TOWN GOT ON REDDIT!!!! YEAH BABY YEA!

[–]swagles 0 points1 point ago

Looks like something from silent hill.

[–]Lap_Ras -1 points0 points ago

The photo is cropped, the skull is hanging from another object and has nuts inside so the squirrel can easily stand on it's hind legs and chow down on some sustinence.

Myth busted.

[–]BlackJackBob -1 points0 points ago

i kinda hate people that incorrectly relabel re posts .. the squirrels head was not stuck, there's a series of images showing this squirrel and his shenanigans. At no time was there any indication that the squirrels head was stuck.. so why pull bullshit out of your ass?

[–]teejmundo2 0 points1 point ago

How Is this WTF worthy?

[–]charrold86 0 points1 point ago

This. Is. Amazeballs! I love squirrels :)

[–]CoinPuss 0 points1 point ago

[–]RedditMartian 1 point2 points ago

wow. two of the same pics on the front page. aaaakwaard...

[–]ClownsInJumpsuits 1 point2 points ago

Nice job submitting this exactly one hour after the original post.

[–]pcechos 0 points1 point ago

This is literally one the front page in r/funny too. Seriously like wtf.

[–]BigBun 0 points1 point ago

Fuck that squirrel would have me running the fuck away.

[–]zamuo 1 point2 points ago

One fucking hour! That's all it takes. This was 5 fucking slots down from the original on my front page!

[–]thescrapplekid 0 points1 point ago

Why isn't there a video of this?

[–]JewishTaco 1 point2 points ago

The time waited to repost hit a new low today

[–]isoceans 0 points1 point ago

shits way funny, but we don't need a repost at the same fuckin time. god damn. and its not very WTFish either.

[–]MrLAJ 0 points1 point ago

I'm now suffering from déjà vu. Thanks for that!

[–]AbrahamLincolnLogs 1 point2 points ago

Why the fuck would you repost this an hour after it was posted in /r/funny?

[–]drum_IT 0 points1 point ago

The Halloween headed squirrel, almost as rare as the albino. 2 on the front page, a once in a lifetime event.

[–]Takingbackmemes 0 points1 point ago

The real wtf is that this appears to be in a newspaper

[–]ProxyReBorn 1 point2 points ago

I like how this is on the front page twice.

[–]sutherland604 1 point2 points ago

It's just THAT good

[–]rydeordieniner 0 points1 point ago

Haha, athat's fuckingm awaesowme

[–]Engineerthegreat 0 points1 point ago

Could reddit stop such blatant reposting if it used karma decay? Any one know if that would work?

[–]zjenkswestern 0 points1 point ago

repost!

[–]fr1sbee 0 points1 point ago

why is this on the frontpage twice

[–]Abcrom 0 points1 point ago

How come whenever their is an obvious karma whoring post like this, every comment calls out the op yet somehow he still gets way more up votes than down votes?

[–]Abcrom 0 points1 point ago

Serious question by the way, no sarcasm intended.

[–]Ithuriel83 1 point2 points ago

That's it made my day- fuck it going back to bed.

[–]haylstorm1020 1 point2 points ago

They were both four hours ago....how does anyone know which one is the original? I saw this one first, and thought the other was a repost....

[–]JubeltheBear 0 points1 point ago

"Ohh... he he he... this should be funn-AHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

[–]LettersFromTheSky 0 points1 point ago

This has to be shopped.

[–]tronn4 -1 points0 points ago

Fuk this double dipping bullshit

[–]Guthidomin 0 points1 point ago

Hallowe'en*

[–]jacdelad 0 points1 point ago

OMG, this made my day!

[–]LittleTillyFooFoo -1 points0 points ago

I can't stop laughing. I keep imagining it running around the yard with that silent scream on his face.

[–]Journalisto 1 point2 points ago

As a journalist, I am rather disappointed with the photo's headline. Of all the potential jokes, the editor goes with a two-word alliteration. Sad really.

[–]guenther_ 0 points1 point ago

I was pretty letdown as well, so much potential and you can tell he just shat something out.

[–]SSgtMunoz 2 points3 points ago

1 in 400k

[–]nobody4 -1 points0 points ago

This is on the front page twice and the other one was posted an hour earlier.

Fuck you OP.

BURN HIM!

[–]snaggavitch 1 point2 points ago

You posted the exact same photo of the newspaper as the guy 4 hours ago. Unless you both have extremely similar photo taking skills this is a repost.

[–]Tain101 -1 points0 points ago

even if it is an "accidental 'repost'", it's in the wrong subreddit, you should've reposted it to /r/funny or somewhere slightly appropriate.

[–]DiversityOfThoughts 0 points1 point ago

Not everyday I see Hampshire on reddit. I feel an odd sort of pride.

[–]RenickulousIII 0 points1 point ago

Repost!

[–]vqt 0 points1 point ago

OP owes me some new pants

[–]Lurlur -3 points-2 points ago

Huh, that's the town next to mine. I'm gonna go find it.

[–]ServerGeek -1 points0 points ago

Looks kinda like my nephew.

[–]guenther_ -1 points0 points ago

Meth, not even once.

[–]mirthless_smirk -1 points0 points ago

And just this morning I found a squirrel drowned in my garbage can. Nothing says good morning than a stiff tree rat floating in almost a foot of icy stinking water. Felt sorry for him I still don't understand how he didn't just hop out and get away..

[–]reddittwotimes 0 points1 point ago

OMG!! Is that a fucking nut?!!!

[–]Rightmeows 0 points1 point ago

Your repost is bad and you should feel bad

[–]pugzlie18 0 points1 point ago

Stolen form /r/Funny.

[–]Theslightlybaldguy -4 points-3 points ago

That squirrel is nuts

[–]tossit22 -3 points-2 points ago

Hallowe'en? Why the apostrophe? Is this a thing?

[–]Seblip 1 point2 points ago

'Halloween or Hallowe'en (a contraction of its original title "All Hallows' Evening"), also known as All Hallows' Eve.' - Wikipedia

[–]DocWarlock -1 points0 points ago

Repost like a motherfucker.
