Not sure I should upvote because funny and true Or downvote because perpetrating the problem

[–]YouJellyFish 20 points21 points ago

I feel that a downvote is appropriate in this situation. If the title points out that the subreddit in question is /r/wtf, then there is no need for it to actually be here.

That's really too bad. It was great to fap to.

[–]Vilvos 8 points9 points ago

Instead of submitting a self-post outlining his issues with r/WTF, OP decided to just post an inane meme.

[–]greiger -2 points-1 points ago

Didn't the thumbs down mean to let them live?

[–]YouJellyFish 7 points8 points ago

We couldn't afford facts as children.

[–]theodrixx 1 point2 points ago

I keep hearing this as well as the opposite of this from various sources.

The only thing I am told we are certain of is that we can't know for sure.

[–]WombatHerder 1 point2 points ago

Theres always some sort of counterintuitivity.

[–]AbanoMex 0 points1 point ago

the only thing i remember, without any source, is that the thumbs up was actually to kill them, since the thumb was pointing at the neck.

[–]Maggeddon 0 points1 point ago

With the thumb extended it was to kill them ( as in to use the blade). The thumb being wrapped in the fist was to spare them (Sheathing the blade).

[–]yorrick21 0 points1 point ago

I think the other extreme, is that WTF needs to have shocking or disgusting content. Not so! This isn't /r/SpaceDicks after all.

[–]Manofonemind 0 points1 point ago

What's reddiquette? Should I follow it and self moderate or should I just upvote everything?

[–]Squidfish 28 points29 points ago

We should make a new subreddit called r/LOL_so_Random just so we can redirect all the cancer there.

[–]CircleJerkAmbassador 6 points7 points ago

I vote that instead, we call it /r/chemo.

[–]erikgil 1 point2 points ago

I vote we call it /r/I'm_10-18_years_old and shoot it to /dev/null.

</40yr old crotchety father of 12 year old who I don't think has found reddit>

[–]ncjenkin 0 points1 point ago

Dad? Is that you!? I love you! Yay! Reddit brought us closer together? Will you come to my band concert this weekend? Will you!? Will you!? Yay!!!

[–]BufferUnderpants 0 points1 point ago

Yes, because that whole "chemo" thing worked so well for /b/.

[–]Clamclaws -2 points-1 points ago

Honestly, I don't understand what all the hate is about. If you really want to see more fucked up shit, go to r/spacedicks or 4chan and browse /b. If you want reddit's version of r/wtf, you see it here.

[–]Squidfish 1 point2 points ago

I may wanna see fucked up shit, but I'm not a sociopath :P

[–]Futhermucker 46 points47 points ago

Yeah, this sure is some great content.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points ago

That's who's been posting to all of reddit for the last 6-12 months (time is pretty hazy to a time traveler).

[–]Random_Tangent 5 points6 points ago

You mean it doesn't stand for "Wasn't that funny?"

[–]axeman157 16 points17 points ago

This and people who get /r Funny mixed up with /r WTF.

[–]slyphox 3 points4 points ago

This caused quite the stir in my jimmies when I looked! I must notify Reddit at once!

[–]ShootinWilly 1 point2 points ago

Yeah, he's clearly under 30 and we don't know were his left hand is!

[–]YOU_MADE_ME 25 points26 points ago

YOU'RE NOT HELPING THE PROBLEM BY SUBMITTING THIS WHINING BULLSHIT.

[–]varrogath 5 points6 points ago

Someone really ought to make a post highlighting the problem of posts that do nothing but highlight problems!

[–]yorrick21 0 points1 point ago

Then this would be an irrelevant comment on a post commenting about highlighting the problem of posts that do nothing but highlight problems. Man, I hate those.

[–]Gfaqshoohaman 8 points9 points ago

Am I in /r/circlejerk right now? Is there no irony?

[–]i_am_losing_my_mind 5 points6 points ago

Instead of contributing to the problem you could have made a legit WTF submission and got the ball rolling.

[–]igavefoucaltaids 2 points3 points ago

we need a middle ground between /r/wtf and spacedicks. /r/fuckdicks

[–]timetide 2 points3 points ago

I thought /r/wtf was the middle ground between normalcy and /r/spacedicks. plus I wonder how many times people are going to link to /r/spacedicks in this thread

[–]invaderdom 2 points3 points ago

this kid looks like he spits when he talks and probably needed an aid all throughout elementary school and possibly into middle school as well

[–]Democritus477 12 points13 points ago

OH GOD WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN THIS TRULY SHOCKING PICTURE

[–]Cpl_Ketchup 5 points6 points ago

Remember when /r/WTF tried to go back to its roots? That was fun for a while.

[–]timetide 5 points6 points ago

and then we started repeating it every 4 weeks like a Alzheimer ridden grandmother.

[–]Timmac 9 points10 points ago

Yeah thats right, complain about the problem by upvoting the problem.

[–]shwatyousay 3 points4 points ago

BLAME THE KNIGHTS OF NEW!!!

[–]gizmoff 5 points6 points ago

How I see op http://i.imgur.com/1kjP1.jpg

[–]11oops 1 point2 points ago

Thanks for taking things down another notch and landing us in meta territory. Perpetuating the problem always makes things so much better, right?

[–]KOWguy 1 point2 points ago

And yet, by posting this, you're the worst of them all.

[–]tresser 1 point2 points ago

lately?

[–]Drake_Amatsu 2 points3 points ago

Exactly. Thinking WTF means "Woah, That's Funny!"

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

THIS IS THE CANCER KILLING \B\ \b\

[–]kayke 1 point2 points ago

how'd u make that backwards "d"?

[–]thoven 1 point2 points ago

lolwut

[–]timetide 2 points3 points ago

the first one is boobs as seen from above (B) the second one is boobs seen from above after breast cancer (b)

[–]raydeen 0 points1 point ago

Actually I would have thought this is who is responsible for r/Gooby.

[–]QCGold 1 point2 points ago

that was bizarre to say the least...

[–]SkyHawkMkIV 0 points1 point ago

Oh crap. I have a laptop very similar to that. Mine's a 3000 N100, though.

[–]captain_kitty_cat -1 points0 points ago

I just posted there the other night with something that was really WTF.. no one commented.. and i guess no one thinks it was wrong..sigh.. it was my first post so i guess it makes sense right? and i'm 22 not 12
