Everyone thinks it's about karma. It's not, it's the principle of it. I'll tell you what it's like. It's like you went to a stand-up comedy show, and stole the comedian's great joke. Then you went to a different club and put on your own show, where you tell the same joke. You stand there, beaming, super proud of how funny the audience thinks you are. And I'm the only one in the crowd who was also at the other show and knows what a douchebag you are.

Edit: Unintentionally reposting an old picture because you haven't seen it is not the same as OP shamelessly reposting someone else's original contribution, then bragging about it.

This is coming from the guy who reposted that dog-lime .gif? Good one man.

Edit: Here's someone posting it in August, and here's someone posting it again in October, and here's you posting it again today.

Edit: drytally's repost is way worse than down_vote_magnet's. Just thought it was funny. Downvoted my own comment for being such a dick about it.

So you think that maybe this guy could have done the same thing? Or are you the only one who can screw up.

It's the first time I've seen that gif. Not everyone has read every post ever made. But August and October? That's not at all the same as someone stealing a top comment from a couple of hours ago and reposting it, then mocking everyone, claiming to be some kind of genius.

There's always people who have seen 95% of what is posted every day. There's no need to act like I made some kind of amazingly cheap repost just because you happen to have seen a gif that I and many others haven't. I'm just saying what everyone else is saying in this thread but I seem to have sparked some huge hivemind pitchfork-fest.

[–]FoglyOgly 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

You're right. And I still laughed at your post. I wasn't upset, I just thought it was funny because then I came here and saw your comment and was like "wait a minute." I think we can both agree that drytally is about 50 levels of asshole above what is acceptable.

[–]down_vote_magnet 1 point2 points ago

Agreed. Thanks man.

[–]goatsgomoo 1 point2 points ago

That only works if you say that /r/wtf and /r/funny are both comedy clubs. I'd say what he did is overheard a joke somebody made at a freak show, then retold that joke at a comedy club. Additionally, since he posted to a different reddit, he introduced the joke to a different audience.

But then he was a dick about it and insulted people instead of defending his actions, so he's still a douchebag.

[–]fapsmear 2 points3 points ago

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

On the other hand, that douchebag just entertained a whole new crowd of people. And in all honesty most people aren't paying attention to the OP's name or karma count unless it's referenced in the comments or something, so why make it such a big deal?

[–]DrPeacemaker 0 points1 point ago

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

I know, right? Why is there so much stigma against reposts? They introduce a joke to someone who may have not seen it the first time, they don't hurt the original poster in any way, and its extremely likely to make a repost by complete accident.

[–]Sun_drop -2 points-1 points ago

I don't subscribe to /r/wtf so I think my upvote is justified.

This is both insightful and horribly ironic at the same time.

Everyone thinks it's about karma.

It's about getting seen on the front or second page.

[–]OGB 1 point2 points ago

Agreed, if I could downvote the OP twice, I would.

[–]ForrestFireDW 3 points4 points ago

Don't you know? Thats how reddit works. Take the top comment that is meme related and make a pic out of it for karma. Dirty, unoriginal karma.

[–]patternfall 1 point2 points ago

To be fair, my work's "websense" blocks the WTF subreddit.

I wish we could remove karma. I vote to ban it.

[–]Reddickk 0 points1 point ago

The karma does inspire some people to do less than "ethical" things (karma whoring, stealing other peoples oc, etc), but lets be honest, Reddit is full of teenagers and without karma the comments section would not be a lot different from YouTube or 4chan.

I didn't read the original comments, so thank you OP for posting this, made me giggle.

different subreddit. Good god I"m so tired of the "repost police". I'm not subscribed to /r/WTF. I am subscribed to /r/funny. deal with it.

[–]HogglesPlasticBeads 0 points1 point ago

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

But it's not a repost. The original post is just the picture. People are upset because in the other thread someone made this joke, and OP (a different person) stole the joke then posted it here.

The only reason that wouldn't terrify me on the street (or in the bar or where ever) is because if I were to punch him once in the face, I have a good chance of putting metal to his skull bones.
