Didn't even take the time to think of a different title. Bad OP.

http://www.reddit.com/r/funny/comments/th4ea/theyyyyyyyre_acceptable/

[–]weabot 49 points50 points ago

looks like he even copy-pasted it, same amount of y's.

[–]mocotazo 16 points17 points ago

He copies and pastes the exact titles of all of his submissions from stuff that was on the frontpage before:

[–]RandomUsername55 18 points19 points ago

Send him to /r/karmacourt!

[–]jnez50 3 points4 points ago

So who keeps up voting him? Someone lies about their girl friends art work downvoted to oblivion. Someone who has 0 originality gets upvotes.

[–]I_RAPE_YOUR_CHILDREN -4 points-3 points ago

Well, there isn't an abundant supply of content so it seems like some people complain about Reposted content even if it was an accident. But it also seems like people upvote purposely stolen content. WHY DOES THIS HAPPEN.

[–]okmkz 9 points10 points ago

Haven't seen this one yet. GOOD JOB

[–]UncleTedGenneric 0 points1 point ago

Dear Diary,

Today, Op was a flag.

[–]danrennt98 4 points5 points ago

Nice catch

[–]auxiliary-character -2 points-1 points ago

I suppose the accordion thing is getting a bit old at this point, eh?

[–]Varnishedchrome 13 points14 points ago

Holden Caulfield just what do you think you're doing?

[–]WhatTheFedex 3 points4 points ago

God, I hated that book so much...

[–]Thechadbaker 2 points3 points ago

I like the book, although I'm not a Holden acolyte, but at least your being honest.

[–]Thechadbaker 1 point2 points ago

*you're

Need to edit before I post.

[–]WriteThing 1 point2 points ago

I think I tried to read it too late. I was like 21 when I started it and just wanted to punch him in his bitchy face. Glad I'm not alone.

[–]okmkz -1 points0 points ago

Seriously, what's so fucking great about it? Dear diary, wah wah wahhhh...

[–]WhatTheFedex 5 points6 points ago

It's long, depressing, and focuses on loss of innocence. It's like candy to high school English teachers.

[–]okmkz -1 points0 points ago

I guess I'm old enough to dislike Bukowski too, so it makes sense that I wouldn't like Catcher.

[–]Everythingpossible 7 points8 points ago

I would write a long comment about how you're wrong and you just misunderstood it, but I really just don't care anymore.

[–]TacoRedneck 0 points1 point ago

chrome doesn't varnish, does it?

[–]34enjoythelilthings 6 points7 points ago

And just like that my upvote turned into a downvote..

[–]rickarooo 1 point2 points ago

Your name unsettles me...

[–]CommonWaveSounds 0 points1 point ago

Ya know, im sure you didnt make that meme yourself either. Are we to call you a phony? Using unorginal content to bash unoriginal content is quite hypocrital.

[–]Authenticator 16 points17 points ago

[–]bakerie 2 points3 points ago

What's this from?

Haha look at the guy next to him...

[–]kenba2099 1 point2 points ago

That fat chick next to him I think is saying "Not that bad"

[–]gyrorobo -4 points-3 points ago

[–]commodore-69 3 points4 points ago

The title makes the joke.

I stole that from the most upvoted comment

[–]MrTorres 3 points4 points ago

what the fuck

[–]puppytossedsalad 3 points4 points ago

This one cracks me up every time.

[–]xenokilla 0 points1 point ago

same, it really needs to be a gif.

[–]votenanocratic 2 points3 points ago

Oh god! Not 8 months! Everyone in the world has seen it in those 8 months!

Besides, it's that title along with the picture that got me to laugh. The picture of the box alone is just another cheap knockoff cereal like Marshmallow Mateys.

[–]klobster 0 points1 point ago

I would've gone with Theyyyyyyy're Flakes!

[–]externalseptember 0 points1 point ago

Good, but doesn't quite capture it the same way.

[–]klobster 0 points1 point ago

[–]externalseptember 0 points1 point ago

Reddiception...

[–]22c 1 point2 points ago

It's even the same amount of y characters...

[–]joosen52 1 point2 points ago

[–]WhatTheFedex 2 points3 points ago

ONE MILLION YEARS DUNGEON!!!

[–]DBerwick 0 points1 point ago

I had to watch that. You may claim it was my choice, but it wasn't. This was your doing, just as a hunter lays a trap. Because of you, I have to live with having seen that, for the rest of my life.

[–]WhatTheFedex 2 points3 points ago

HEY OP! You're fired, ya BUTT!

[–]Fartikus 0 points1 point ago

So OP was a reposting faggot like half the pictures in /r/funny.

[–]DiarrheaGuzzler 0 points1 point ago

On top of that the title is bad. The y isn't what's elongated... it's not even on the right fucking word.

[–]MothaFuckin -1 points0 points ago

but but i hadnt seen it and and... the title is....greeeaaat!

[–]TheManitee 0 points1 point ago

Even the same number of Y's. ouch

[–]glassy125 0 points1 point ago

I came here to comment on how original and funny OP's title was. Now I'm mad, really really mad >:(

[–]yoon2972 1 point2 points ago

AWWW SHIT IS OP A FAGGOT?!?

[–]externalseptember 0 points1 point ago

Damn, one of the few things I actually laugh at on r/funny and then I have to read this. I actually thought the title was really clever too.

[–]Elx- 0 points1 point ago

[–]xLuky -2 points-1 points ago

Oh no 8 whole months ago! I didn't see it then and I'm glad to see it now, reddit seriously can't exist without reposts.

[–]johnny_gunn 2 points3 points ago

Thank you, I don't understand why people can't wrap their minds around this concept.

[–]xLuky 5 points6 points ago

Seriously, this isn't a new concept...

Almost everything you have ever seen on reddit has been posted here or somewhere else many times before. Which is fine, that's how things get around.

[–]Renelius 2 points3 points ago

I think the point is more that is was blatantly a copy of another post. It's the exact same post, title and everything and it seems this user has done this multiple times.

[–]johnny_gunn -2 points-1 points ago

This is from 8 months ago you dumb shit. I'd never seen it before, and clearly everyone who upvoted it hadn't either. Stop complaining about 'reposts'.

[–]DullMan -1 points0 points ago

Okay I'm getting fed up with this. I'm tagging every asshat like OP with a fuchsia colored "shamelessly reposts" tag, and I'm going to downvote these clowns every time I see a post or comment of theirs. This is getting ridicilous.

The quality of reddit posts has declined way too much, and for what? Worthless points.

[–]LockableDeadbolt -3 points-2 points ago

I understand your point about reposts, but I want to ask you a question.

How do I upvote the post you linked to??

I tried to go back the original post, but it has been archived. Isn't this repost just a way of demonstrating that this content/joke is still worthy of more upvotes?

[–]avdude13 49 points50 points ago

Theyyy're food

[–]pizz901 8 points9 points ago

[–]Eats_Beef_Steak 5 points6 points ago

My favorite scene from family guy ever. Couldn't stop laughing after I saw that.

[–]ILoveTrance 24 points25 points ago

Theyyyyyyyy're OP is a fag.

[–]MegaPruneface 7 points8 points ago

Dat Lidl brand cereal.

[–]nittywame 1 point2 points ago

Lidl is great, not as good as Aldi though.

[–]jaapz 2 points3 points ago

Here in the Netherlands, they are more or less the same. They work using the same principle of looking as cheap as possible, and making as less costs as possible. Why is Aldi better?

[–]Sopzeh 2 points3 points ago

Aldi has better vegetables, fresher. In UK lidl is more knockoff than aldi, just by a bit

[–]jaapz 1 point2 points ago

Here its actually the other way around :) Lidl has even been tested to have better vegetables than any other supermarket here for about 3 years now.

[–]nittywame 0 points1 point ago

I'd definitley agree with the other repliers. Aldi tends to have a more luxury feel to it, some of their products are fantastic quality and i shop their specifically for those things.

[–]MegaPruneface 1 point2 points ago

Them's fightin' words.

[–]rainator 1 point2 points ago

have you ever tried the nougat-pillows? i like to call them mud & gravelTM because they look like mud, and eating them makes the same sound as someone walking down a gravel path.

[–]Avista 1 point2 points ago

Actually, Crownfield is very decent, as far as cheap knock-off products go. If you know your cheap shit you can save a good deal of money without compromising too much with quality.

[–]TheMightyDane 0 points1 point ago

DO NOT TRY THEIR FRUIT HOOPS. My soul died a bit when I did.

[–]socalscribe 7 points8 points ago

Larry the Lion only took that gig to support his pill habit.

[–]kenba2099 0 points1 point ago

[–]DJFr0stBite 1 point2 points ago

more like frosted fakes

[–]Porsche_monkey4life 9 points10 points ago

I go indifferent for crownfield. Silly rabbit Crownfield is for the poor. Snap crackle recession.

[–]ambiguousallegiance -3 points-2 points ago

Snap, crackle, pop, there goes the stock market!

[–]wtps 2 points3 points ago

You get karma for posting this!?

[–]yelleknave 6 points7 points ago

[–]KoreanTerran 5 points6 points ago

I really like the knock offs sometimes.

Tastes just as good and at half the price.

[–]TJ-sylar 0 points1 point ago

Choco locos from asda. The greatest cereal of all time and cheap

[–]Dervendel 5 points6 points ago

Op's a cunt

[–]Festeron 2 points3 points ago

The first thing I thought of was a commercial from You Don't Know Jack for a kids' cereal.

"They're grrrr not going to kill you"

[–]tiphat 4 points5 points ago

Magically bearable

[–]Irish_mcdick 4 points5 points ago

Magically mediocre.

[–]TheReasonableCamel 0 points1 point ago

Slightly Satisfying

[–]JesusPanda 6 points7 points ago

Reasonably reasonable.

[–]xLuky 0 points1 point ago

That's a great band name.

[–]magibacon 5 points6 points ago

Best band name: "Almost Done". In between songs, "hey thanks for coming out, we're Almost Done."

Or call the band "Sorry."

[–]vivalapants 2 points3 points ago

Passably Palatable

[–]darthnadar 2 points3 points ago

wow! to whore karma, all i have to go is blatantly rip off other people's intellectual property. I am going to be internet famous!

[–]nonfaccioniente 0 points1 point ago

I am going to be just like everyone else ever.

Fuck you OP. You and people like you are the cancer of the internet.

[–]coolcosmos 1 point2 points ago

It turns out that they're mad decent.

[–]e-wrecked 0 points1 point ago

hella acceptable was my favorite variation

[–]fact_bears_eat_beets 0 points1 point ago

I don't know if they still sell them, but I used to eat the Food lion brand Crispix, otherwise known as Crispy Hexagons. Somebody in the marketing department really phoned that one in.

[–]f1stpumpN 0 points1 point ago

OP stop being a Lennay Kakua

[–]PosiedonsSaltyAnus 1 point2 points ago

Am I missing the joke or is there actually just a picture of a knock off brand of cereal on the front page?

[–]MrDeckard 0 points1 point ago

I actually saw something similar to this in the Ozarks with the tagline "They're good!"

[–]MurphyRobocop 0 points1 point ago

I was expecting Earl of Lemongrab. Boy am I let down right now.

[–]frankdamedic 1 point2 points ago

Would've also accepted "theyyyyyyyre within normal operating parameters"

[–]pandez 1 point2 points ago

A Lion? Man what idiots they are. TOBY THE TIGON! There's your character for the box! Toby the TIGON man... I'm a marketing genius!

[–]Juicemane 0 points1 point ago

Theyyyyyyyyyy'reeeee FOOD.

[–]Nyarlathotep124 0 points1 point ago

I read that in Lemongrab's voice.

[–]shaballerz 0 points1 point ago

Looks like he's saying "good enough"

[–]SerOrNotToSer 0 points1 point ago

[–]Taco_flavoredkisses 0 points1 point ago

Can't be the only one craving frosted flakes after this..

[–]acceptableusername 0 points1 point ago

I'll be the judge of that.

[–]mrmastomas 0 points1 point ago

This is why I can't get on reddit if I have a stomach virus. My wife is not happy me poop laughing.

[–]warranty45 0 points1 point ago

I don't care if this is a repost, I've never seen it before and I literally Laughed out Loud. People need to calm down when it comes to reposts. Some of us haven't seen everything on the internet before.

[–]Sleepy_ 0 points1 point ago

Mad decent.

[–]RockyCoon 0 points1 point ago

I'd also accept "Theyyyyyyyy're Food!"

[–]Oniryuu 0 points1 point ago

After seeing his expression, the only thought that came to mind is "Just don't fall into the water, or the dolphin will rape you."

If OP is such a fucking douche, why isnt this downvoted to oblivion. I dun understand and it makes me sad...

[–]drynwhyl 0 points1 point ago

Get flakers choco next time, you won't be disappoint.

[–]sambchops 0 points1 point ago

Well, frosted flakes can't be trademarked, as it's simply the description. If you wanted to, you could sell your own box of frosted flakes, your mascot could be a zebra jumping ass first onto a pogo stick, and it would be slightly legal.

[–]heracleides 0 points1 point ago

I dont mind generic brand frosted flakes, its the coco puffs off brand you have to watch out for

[–]geekygirl23 0 points1 point ago

Everyone knows that the only off brand that can hold a candle to the original are the froot loop knockoffs.

[–]authorless 0 points1 point ago

Knock-off Fruity Pebbles and Apple Jacks are pretty good too.

[–]SOMETIMES_I_GO_2_FAR 0 points1 point ago

Has anyone seen their box for 'Choco Hoops'? It makes me so angry. How can a panda eat it with chopsticks?! And it seems pleased with itself! No wonder they're endangered.

Here's the bastard

Skewer the O's with the chopsticks and eat. Then drink the milk.

Fun fact. Frosted Flakes is not a trademarked name.

[–]DeSacha 0 points1 point ago

I actually like them more than the real ones :/

[–]keyree 0 points1 point ago

I love the word acceptable. It has that perfect connotation of "Really pretty bad, but just good enough that I don't want to go get something else."

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnd meh.

I like how cartoon animals have outstretched hands all the time, yet are never actually pointing or gesturing at the object of attention.
