You see, the point of having an unexpected ending is that the ending is unexpected. Which is kind of spoiled when you use a title like that.

[–]zipzopzoobitybop 41 points42 points ago

OP, circa 1999:

HEY GUISE YOU SHOULD WATCH THE SIXTH SENSE BECAUSE OF THE TWIST ENDING WHERE BRUCE WILLIS IS A GHOST

[–]ecklcakes 19 points20 points ago

For fuck's sake I was planning on watching that for the first time later this week.

[–]AnonTheTerrible 15 points16 points ago

To be fair, the movie came out 13 years ago. You've had quite a bit of time to watch it.

[–]ecklcakes 9 points10 points ago

I only watch films once at least 13 years have passed. Superstition.

[–]andshewas_45 13 points14 points ago

It's bad luck to be superstitious.

[–]ecklcakes 6 points7 points ago

Well shit.

[–]Kennyclone 3 points4 points ago

So you'd wait till the unlucky year to watch it?

[–]ecklcakes 2 points3 points ago

13th year is unlucky? Well fuck.

[–]Sobertese 2 points3 points ago

It's ok, just toss salt over left shoulder with right hand...or right shoulder with left hand... Or something like that

[–]Evilkillerofevil 3 points4 points ago

[–]HDRoy 2 points3 points ago

Twist: ecklcakes is 13 years old, and thus he had to wait.

[–]Grindstone50k 0 points1 point ago

Directed by M. Night Shyamalan

lol for downvote on actually getting the director's name right?

[–]CheezyWeezle 3 points4 points ago

No, downvote because it actually WAS directed by M. Night Shyamalan. It doesn't work when it makes sense.

[–]galenus -1 points0 points ago

He only made one of them. What of the other 5?

[–]CheezyWeezle -5 points-4 points ago

M. Night Shagallama

[–]MrMagpie93 8 points9 points ago

OP couldn't figure a better title if his/her life depended on it

[–]usedtobeadinosaur -3 points-2 points ago

Cause you were expecting a normal elf story on /r/funny without any twist?

[–]thephishbrony 37 points38 points ago

I did, because you fucking said not expect it.

[–]Brisn 6 points7 points ago

You can't expect the unexpected, because if you expect it, it becomes expected. 0_0

[–]gangler52 0 points1 point ago

The secrets of The Clow were all a mystery.

But when this mighty book was opened the powers were set free!

[–]kickshaw 20 points21 points ago

by Neil Gaiman:

Nicholas Was...

older than sin, and his beard could grow no whiter. He wanted to die.

The dwarfish natives of the Arctic caverns did not speak his language, but conversed in their own, twittering tongue, conducted incomprehensible rituals, when they were not actually working in the factories.

Once every year they forced him, sobbing and protesting, into Endless Night. During the journey he would stand near every child in the world, leave one of the dwarves' invisible gifts by its bedside. The children slept, frozen into time.

He envied Prometheus and Loki, Sisyphus and Judas. His punishment was harsher.

Ho.

Ho.

Ho.

Damn that was dark

[–]russlo 16 points17 points ago

It's November 3rd. You choose the music in malls and department stores too, don't you?

[–]belfastphil 10 points11 points ago

And the problem is? He deserved it.

[–]gorillapavilion 3 points4 points ago

he fucking deserved it.

[–]belfastphil 0 points1 point ago

Thank you, that's sounds better.

[–]ndanick 5 points6 points ago

I couldn't read it normally with that title. I went straight to the last line. THANKS.

[–]xRhavagex 4 points5 points ago

[–]Jiles-Mcfrafon 0 points1 point ago

When I first started using reddit this was posted, and I thought it was hilarious.

[–]llcbdavis 1 point2 points ago

i never knew snow was made in china.

[–]SockMonkeyHolocaust 0 points1 point ago

I actually expected the ending. The middle kind of threw me off though.

[–]yuloforce 0 points1 point ago

My, that escalated quickly.

[–]mwalters103 0 points1 point ago

Well that escalated quickly.

[–]Scampjock 0 points1 point ago

I like it.

[–]brendendrew 0 points1 point ago

Am I the only one that read the last line immediately?

[–]UberSpycrab 0 points1 point ago

Simple Simon met a pie man going to the fair. Said Simple Simon to the pie man, ‘What have you there?’ Said the pie man unto Simon, ‘Pies, you dumb ass.’

[–]amontes92 0 points1 point ago

[–]RealStyrofom 0 points1 point ago

Breaking bad right there...

[–]loercase 1 point2 points ago

I haven't been on Reddit in weeks. Open it up to see this image for the millionth time. Kill me.

[–]bedazio 2 points3 points ago

This is the way all workers SHOULD be treated... and they will be once Mitt gets in!

[–]EclecticEelVoltage -3 points-2 points ago

And all the other elves looked on in horror. Santa screamed "this is what happens when you try to fucking leave! No more skull! Got it, bitches?"

[–]007JamesBond007 3 points4 points ago

This kills the joke.

[–][deleted] ago

[–]Brisn 4 points5 points ago

That was awful.

[–]nicko378 0 points1 point ago

Just terrible.

[–]livingfields -4 points-3 points ago

well that escalated quickly.

[–]MetalRockKid66 -3 points-2 points ago

I don't see the issue here at all. The elf was probably a nigger.

[–]jozermander -2 points-1 points ago

Is anyone else think this runs parallel to Breaking Bad?

[–]IDidntDo-it -2 points-1 points ago

I'm so glad this wasn't posted in /r/wtf.
