Oops yo went over ! Here have a downvote: guys we got to keep him at 1776 we can do it!

Edit: 8 hours later and still holding strong! 346 more upvotes on this post and he will be double eagle!

[–]dheinzen2 7 points8 points ago

Damn it, too much. All upvotes ahead!

[–]shadowjeffknowsbest 9 points10 points ago

o no we got him below 1776, quick some up votes to get him back up to it.

[–]Jeffersonb 7 points8 points ago

Were gonna have to settle for 1355.

[–]porknqueso 3 points4 points ago

I now have him or her tagged as "must keep at 1776 karma."

[–]RoachOnATree0116 2 points3 points ago

Fuck yes RES

OP as long as I am on reddit (or lose interest) I will incite people to maintain your patriotic status. You sir, are an American Hero.

[–]avergejoe 16 points17 points ago

Congratulations, have a steak.

[–]Hezza8 22 points23 points ago

Lets see if we can get that to 1812

[–]canadian028 5 points6 points ago

How about 1607?

[–]flekkzo 6 points7 points ago

1138 or 1337 please.

[–]flekkzo 7 points8 points ago

80085 is also acceptable.

[–]davesfakeaccount 1 point2 points ago

42!

[–]sideflanker 3 points4 points ago

69

[–]nealski77 0 points1 point ago

How about 2525?

[–]gkx 0 points1 point ago

1.4050061... x 1051 feels a bit excessive

[–]I3aisden 4 points5 points ago

It bugs me how poorly that gif transitions

[–]TehNewbGawd 5 points6 points ago

Just going to put this here...

[–]Dr_Emmet_Brown 3 points4 points ago

I remember when I hit 88 karma... Some serious shit happened.

[–]GladiatorBill 8 points9 points ago

I passed 300 today. On my birthday. No seriously. One small step for man....

[–]Djifi 5 points6 points ago

Congratulations man, it's hard work. I myself hope to pass 1k before my cakeday, and it seems extremely likely to happen.

[–]hdcs 5 points6 points ago

You two are adorable.

[–]Djifi 1 point2 points ago

You ancient karma machine! You should've broken down or become inefficient by now. No, wait, I know. You went to the future, didn't you? You went to the future, not to look at top comments because that would be cheap, no, you went to the future and bought your own high-tech karma machine. Clearly the only explanation. Unless you're Apostolate.

[–]ProxyMuncher 1 point2 points ago

Nobody is apostolate except Apostolate himself. Does he respond to summons?

[–]Djifi 0 points1 point ago

I hear he does if you mention him 3 times? Apostolate?

[–]gkx 0 points1 point ago

The longer you're here, the easier it is to do, especially if you pay attention to karma trends. Seriously, if I'm trying, it's not hard to get 1k in a week after like 3 hours of Reditting.

[–]Nebz604 12 points13 points ago

I kinda feel like the Op has never seen Parks and Rec or knows the character Ron Swanson very well.

[–]abeliangrape 3 points4 points ago

Funny, I can say the same thing about you. Ron might hate the government, but he sure loves America:

Right below honor he says: "America, the only country that matters. If you want to experience other cultures get a ham radio.

Here's a video of him laughing at canada

[–]Nebz604 0 points1 point ago

Uh huh, the united states became a republic with a government in 1776. So to associate Ron Swanson with the forming of the government seems out of place.

[–]boomboxdino 4 points5 points ago

Are you the sausage king of Chicago? Or am I confusing you for someone else?

[–]Grayphobia 2 points3 points ago

I slowly earned 1000 over months of ignored posts, then in a single night, 3 posts got 500 and I never looked back.

[–]Kids_On_Coffee 2 points3 points ago

...The Sausage King of Chicago?

[–]Ceraphas 0 points1 point ago

and you still can't fkn figure out this isn't /r/reactiongifs

[–]epgenius 4 points5 points ago

and it's gone...

[–]mrbrick 2 points3 points ago

So.. this begs the question. Does Ron Swanson love America? He does think all government should be abolished.

[–]j-hook 6 points7 points ago

He loves america because the government is closer to being abolished than in dirty places like europe.

[–]llamasauce 3 points4 points ago

The state is not the country.

[–]Thelionheart777 2 points3 points ago

This idea actually did not occur until the Enlightenment and the French Revolution. One of the first occurrences of the idea that the state != the country was in Friend of the People by Marat. So according to history, this idea was (essentially) born after the American Revolution.

[–]llamasauce 0 points1 point ago

We've discovered planets around other stars; we've split the atom; we've understood ecology and the climate in ways never before imagined; we've found our evolutionary forbears; we've sought economic equality for every person. Liberty is a new idea but is the right idea. It is an innovation.

The state is not the country.

[–]k9d 3 points4 points ago

Thinking of you...

[–]niamhorama 1 point2 points ago

its truly beautiful

[–]lallish 0 points1 point ago

My first post overkilled my karma, I didn't even get a chance to try to balance it to the number I wanted.

[–]trikillr42 -1 points0 points ago

The irony of course being that you're at 1774 right now...

[–]zannyuk -1 points0 points ago

Karma is a tricky thing to discuss, if you brag how much you have your in danger of being down voted to hell, my advice. Shhhhh.

[–]courtleighdee -1 points0 points ago

Oops, sorry 'bout that....

[–]Nawdah -1 points0 points ago

good now never comment again.

[–]manuel_robot_cleaner -1 points0 points ago

I have like 6,700. I would give you some.

[–]Shabba-Doo 1 point2 points ago

Abe, this is tough enough without you commenting on other people's posts all William Nilliam. These people who don't know America hangs in the balance. We need to eliminate these extraneous variables to maintain!

[–]Nucking-Futs 0 points1 point ago

Ok thats just creepy... that is the exact number of karma i have.

[–]titsforfuck 1 point2 points ago

That's the spirit!

[–]Nipplemelter 0 points1 point ago

I almost feel the same way since I have 1771 comment karma.

[–]DasPlechazunga 1 point2 points ago

You might think I said I want a lot of your karma. What I actually said is I want ALL of the karma.

[–]SkynetSacrifice 0 points1 point ago

High Def Please? Would make a badass screensaver.

[–]NightO_Owl 0 points1 point ago

This was all I could hear.

[–]Flebas 0 points1 point ago

How I feel hitting 1737 karma. Warning: slightly less interesting)

[–]15herzh -1 points0 points ago

I saw a shirt you might like if you recognized a moment such as this. It said "back to back [american flag in middle] world war champs"

[–]13IsMyLuckyNumber -1 points0 points ago

Aaaannnnddddd its gone...........

[–]Mr_Pie_Eater 0 points1 point ago

I have 1776 link karma!! Yay!!!!!

[–]OompaLoompa4Life -1 points0 points ago

except he hates computers, no?

[–]chuckles2014 -1 points0 points ago

Murica!

[–]CarbineGuy -1 points0 points ago

...aaaand it's gone

[–]Tychus_Kayle 1 point2 points ago

I suddenly need 112 more karma so I can have 3552, it's like double America.

[–]secretlyintothat 1 point2 points ago

Dammit, it's fluctuating between 1774 and 1777. I keep refreshing and voting...This is a good game.

[–]katydid15 1 point2 points ago

1775 now....tough luck.

[–]dark123kight 0 points1 point ago

All I can hear when I see this is the "Star Spangled Banner" played by trumpets.

[–]t0talimm0rtalz 0 points1 point ago

Except Ron Swanson hates the government

[–]ercstlkr 0 points1 point ago

Me too man, me too.

[–]Viper_786 0 points1 point ago

Is this from the episode where he has a hernia?

[–]HogwartsNeedsWifi 0 points1 point ago

Oh hey I have 555 link karma. thats kinda cool too.

[–]thad_tiger_thad -1 points0 points ago

I will not stop until I get to 07041776 karma.

[–]Chedgar86 0 points1 point ago

Just get him over 9000 so he can be done with the Internet.

[–]Blueeyes1101 -1 points0 points ago

Marty Huggins??

[–]MunkyGoCrazy -1 points0 points ago

I thought I would say this. I LOVE that show. I started watching three weeks ago and I'm already halfway through the 4th season.

[–]snowboardinpa -1 points0 points ago

r/MURICA

[–]telecomwarrior -1 points0 points ago

Me. Gusta. America.

[–]YMU15 0 points1 point ago

Knowing I have 1782 karma, I read and thought, "Ha, still have more than you." But now you have over 2k :(

[–]JacobStoner 0 points1 point ago

I present to you my upvote. May many more come your way my fellow American.

[–]bean0s0rz 0 points1 point ago

I remember how that felt...LULZ

[–]renotime 0 points1 point ago

I'd have to make 1776 comments to get that much karma. :(

[–]jesuslovesmarijuana 0 points1 point ago

This is a feeling that I will never experience

[–]noawesomenameneeded 0 points1 point ago

This made me want meat.

[–]PencilUpMyNose -2 points-1 points ago

Do you feel like a person who needs validation from strangers on the internet for using exactly the same jokes over and over again, pretending like they're "inside jokes" that only you and other redditors "get" when actually they're just overused puns and memes?

[–]molsted 1 point2 points ago

..... Had a bad day?

[–]PencilUpMyNose 0 points1 point ago

mostly just bored

[–]llamasauce 1 point2 points ago

Difficulties?

[–]PencilUpMyNose 1 point2 points ago

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I'm the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking dead, kiddo.

[–]LittleCucumber 1 point2 points ago

This is so funny. I laughed because this is funny.

Funny.

[–]nomadfoy 2 points3 points ago

somebody tell me how to set this gif as my desktop. I've never seen it before but its got to be possible.

[–]lordnibbla 3 points4 points ago

i think you can just set it, otherwise vlc has a wallpaper function, and it can play gif.

[–]jimyin[!] 2 points3 points ago

Needs another down.

[–]pmartin0079 -1 points0 points ago

YOU AINT GOT NO 1776 KARMA YOU LIAR!

[–]RonSwanson_AMA 1 point2 points ago

I'm proud of you, son. I feel like that all the time.

[–]Provenzer0 -1 points0 points ago

and how I felt hitting 61,000 Link Karma...not really, my OCD says to get 100K and quit, which I am trying to do. Reddit is killing my performance at work.

[–]BurntTheToast 2 points3 points ago

I wish I could get my comment karma to 10,000 and just end it but I'm just so damn funny (or obnoxious) that I need to comment.

[–]Battletooth -1 points0 points ago

Is there where I post to show off my e-peen?

[–]BurntTheToast 1 point2 points ago

Impressive.

[–]iDP 0 points1 point ago

Do you comment a lot, post super agreeable things, or just be really witty?

[–]Battletooth 0 points1 point ago

I comment a lot. I don't ever praise Gaben or Obama or NDT or whatever. It's usually hit and miss. Sometimes I get lucky and comment early on something that becomes the top comment with thousands of karma and there I am.

Other times, I get ignored. :(

[–]iDP 0 points1 point ago

Ah yeah, those early comments are golden for getting a lot of karma. I guess it's a bonus for browsing new.

[–]blacktoise -1 points0 points ago

I have 1777 karma.. I am sad.

[–]trikillr42 4 points5 points ago

1776 now, bitch!

[–]ElevenReds 0 points1 point ago

[–]mrdoink20 -4 points-3 points ago

Yeah "comment" karma. Nerd!
