I've seen this gif so many times and I have yet to find out the context.

[–]SplinterMuffins 54 points55 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

someone inform us.

[–]Samsy 37 points38 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

yeah came here to find that out too, would love to know the source and context

Video link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlyBdE8DgqI&NR=1

People seem to debate between whether he was insulting the class and they retaliated, or if it was staged since there seems to be no adult (assuming the other person seen in the video is a kid too).

[–]Samsy 42 points43 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

thanks for the link! yeah I'd err on the side of 'staged' - if it was spontaneous, one bag would have come first then rest would have followed, rather than the synchronised barrage.

Also, its the internets.

[–]beanso 42 points43 points ago

I think it's something along the lines of a failed "accio" spell. He seems to be smiling when he turns to get up.

[–]Samsy 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

sorry - "failed 'accio' spell" - what does that mean?

[–]beanso 29 points30 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

In the Harry Potter series there's a spell called "accio" that summons items to you by way of flying.

[–]Samsy 8 points9 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

ah very good, thanks. thought it might have been a US school system thing related to spelling, rather than casting spells

[–]sizzurp 8 points9 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Eh, basically the same thing.

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

You confused a Harry Potter reference with US educational lingo. I think it' s fair to say that this speaks volumes not only about your knowledge of the English language in America, but the American educational system in general.

fuck you for not being an HP nerd, and fuck the kids below for helping you

[–]Samsy 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

haha, that pretty much sums up all the downvotes I got! check out my comment below the threshold where I jokingly referred to the series as an obscure kids book...

[–]Samsy 3 points4 points ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

wow, downvote for not knowing a reference from some obscure children's book, harsh! (relax, trolling)

edit: um, oh forget it...

[–]robynnadine 1 point2 points ago

upvote for the suggestion to downvote, already done

[–]despaxes -4 points-3 points ago

I agree with staged, his legs seem to bend in an unnatural and unwarranted way (no way his legs broke like that) so i think it is a dummy in the end.

[–]mothrog 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

naw his legs look fine it's just his whole body spins around ate the last second you see him starting to get up (moving his legs)

[–]Samsy 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

yeah definitely no dummy

[–]thejug02 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yea and it would have to have been planned for all the bags to hit him at the same time. He would have likely noticed them coordinating this if it wasn't faked and avoided it.

It's a lot easier to pratfall when you're that young. I remember being able to do it like a champ.

well someone cried "bitch! bitch!" in this video, not sure if it was attacked kid or not. anyway thanks for the link.

[–]boomfarmer 33 points34 points ago

Obviously, this is a Pavlovian experiment designed to teach children not to spank books.
Little Johnny has been invited to the classroom to read a book to the children, and has been told that the reason the students have their backpacks on their laps is because a fire drill is scheduled shortly, and their teacher wants them to be prepared. Perhaps he has been told of the fire drill in a different class.
What Little Johnny there does not know is that the 'teacher' in the background is merely a mannequin with cameras, which a researcher uses to observe the subject. Likewise, the 'students' are mannequins specially designed to throw backpacks.
Little Johnny is effectively trained.

I literally laughed out loud at the first line of this. Have an upvote.

[–]bvanman 15 points16 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yeah, but it got upvoted, didn't it? So apparently he's on to something here.

[–]jettrscga 8 points9 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

For some unholy reason gifs will be upvoted thousands off times if you format your title as follows: "Every time I xxxx" where xxxx can range from "take a shit," "try to talk to a girl," or even "post something on Reddit."

[–]Sedsage 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I thought he meant that, as new material wasn't working, he gave up and just posted an old gif.

[–]gthemagician 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

it was so ironic i had to upvote it

[–]yrogerg123 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Every time something makes me laugh out loud, I upvote, no matter how many times I've seen it before.

[–]Fliksan 3 points4 points ago

I was waiting for some comment from him saying he gets downvoted, so fuck it, I'm reposting. Now I'm just confused.

[–]overused_ellipsis[S] 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It's funny though... I spend my time crafting some thing that's front page material... only 10 people graze the post... I even experimented in a couple subreddits. The thing is, this week I saw something from /r/gaming with 12 up, 7 down at the 7 spot on the front page... did the voting algorithm change?

[–]overused_ellipsis[S] 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

That's the whole point! Seems like you gotta give the crowd what they want...

[–]tolstoyleo 0 points1 point ago

No, please keep posting new material :P

Don't feel too bad - I had all my link karma wiped out in one fell swoop by a recent post (apparently reddit doesn't care for Madame Curie gangbang jokes. Go figure).

[–]feistyfish 2 points3 points ago

eh, i dunno if it deserved a lot of downvotes but it's not like you struck comedic gold or anything

I wouldn't kick you out of bed for showing me that picture.

Too cerebral. That's your problem you went full on cerebral. No one does that.

see what I did there?

wtf... this is so stupid it's great! slow clap

[–]chejrw 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

That's not true. No matter how many downvotes you get, you never get negative link karma, you can only get zero or higher.

[–]blahblahmattblah 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I don't think that's accurate. I posted something that got more downvotes than upvotes and my karma went down.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

You link karma can only go down one point (default score for links is 1, can be downvoted to 0, removing a point). Comment karma can go negative.

Maybe you posted several downvoted links in close time to each other? So it looked like you lost 3 or 5 or whatever points at once.

[–]inferno719 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Not true. I've seen someone at around -700 karma.

[–]chejrw 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Comment karma, yes. Link karma, no.

[–]cycophuk 0 points1 point ago

If your username is an indication of your sex, go post in/gonewild. You will get all the karma you want there.
