In all fairness, most posts in r/new deserve it

[–]Rasimov 117 points118 points ago

Browsing /r/new has taught me how unoriginal people on here can be. I keep wondering about the logic behind reposting something that is currently on the frontpage but people do it all of the time.

[–]GimmeTheHotSauce 47 points48 points ago

There are a lot of 12 to 15 year olds here who are barely conscious yet. They'd upvote the same thing twice in a row, so they figure other people will as well.

[–]money_buys_a_jetski 36 points37 points ago

I'd like to see a sub exclusively for 12 to 15 year olds. r/barelyconcious perhaps.

[–]GimmeTheHotSauce 39 points40 points ago

A sub for barely conscious 12- to 15-year-olds sounds rather creepy when you think about it.

My younger brother just joined and he posted a link. It got downvoted to hell. I couldn't be happier with r/new.

It. ISN'T /r/NEW

its /new

[–]HyperCalcium 1 point2 points ago

Oh man (Sorry)

[–]Zhang5 -1 points0 points ago

I have on occasion upvoted the same things multiple times in a row (hell even on the same page) but usually it's stuff like big game announcements being on both /r/games and /r/gamernews.

[–]CommissarCool 2 points3 points ago

It doesn't work that way. One must live and ONE MUST DIE. These are our ways. You can't save everyone, boy. The engine runs most efficiently on cruelty.

[–]ciscomd -1 points0 points ago

Haha, wow. I guess this proves my point. A word-for-word duplicate of my comment got upvoted higher than my original comment. Bravo.

[–]MeVersusShark[S] 16 points17 points ago

I think Reddit is growing so fast that old posts are new to the newbies, enough so to make page 1

[–]Urvilan 7 points8 points ago

I don't think people concur with your views...

[–]MeVersusShark[S] 13 points14 points ago

Eh, yea. But I'm still glowing from the OP, so bring it on.

Let's upvote this guy, but not the other one!

I used to call them out, almost all of them say "Oh, I saw this on Facebook and thought that it's new and original."

[–]JesterAzazel -1 points0 points ago

In my experience, it's most of the front page that lacks originality. /new/ just outright sucks.

[–]MeVersusShark[S] 31 points32 points ago

Not disagreeing with you.

[–][deleted] 23 points24 points ago

/r/new is where new redditors discover the shocking truth that this community is just as stupid and unfunny as all internet communities; we are just better at organization.

[–]Zoccihedron 1 point2 points ago

It should be /new. If you see posts in /r/new, something is wrong.

[–]A_Wild_Missingno 0 points1 point ago

a lot of people on the front page still deserve it. These are the people that the "neckbeards of /new" let pass.

Thus we can learn: People on /new deserve it, neckbeards of /new deserve it, and front page material deserves it.

Conclusion: Everybody deserves it. Everybody should be punching everybody right in their stupid face right now.

[–]JPalmz 61 points62 points ago

Yet you still posted anyway. A bold move.

Holy hell, I flashed back to the sound each guy (supposedly) made as he was punched - it sounded like a cat being kicked:

[–]WeenisWrinkle 8 points9 points ago

Free Wheelin' was a great episode:

"Stymiiiiiiiiiie!"

"Yes, Mammy?"

"Where is you at"

"Right here where I is!"

"Come away from where you is to over here where I is"

[–]wharpudding 5 points6 points ago

I wish those were on either Hulu or Netflix. If they are, I haven't found 'em yet.

[–]wharpudding 0 points1 point ago

Hmm. I might have to start dropping some hints for a birthday gift around the family. Hehe.

Thanks :D

[–]wharpudding 1 point2 points ago

:D Awesome. I wish there were more, but I'll certainly be watching these. Thank you!

Ever seen the silent our gangs? They are the best.

yea I think it's Free Wheeling

[–]Aldimann 5 points6 points ago

Ain't that the same?

[–]ethanwc 0 points1 point ago

Not exactly. Our Gang preceded Little Rascals. Different group of kids. I think Spanky was in more shorts than anyone else, because he was doing them from 1-12 or something like that.

[–]ActionScripter9109 3 points4 points ago

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who recognized this right away. I love that series. Huge part of my childhood, right there. Imagine my surprise when I found it on /r/all.

"HOLY SHIT, IT'S THE LITTLE FUCKING RASCALS!"

[–]Innovationwarp 11 points12 points ago

Found this browsing /new/ for the first time in a while, and I got a nostalgic feeling on why I stopped.

Don't hold hate in your heart, you're only causing more pain to yourself. Being an asshole is oftentimes it's own punishment in the long run. Just keep being awesome and forget about them.

[–]myruxx 2 points3 points ago

I didn't mean to distract from the thread, chemguy90 sounded genuine and I've dealt with people being assholes a lot, so I wanted to throw out words of encouragement.

I will add to the thread by saying I browse /r/new often and I hand out downvotes like a candy thrower on a parade float (I lol'd and upvoted your gif though).

[–]Corbett81 2 points3 points ago

A seemingly impossible task as you would not only have to find them all, but then find a circular road, dress them in 1920s clothing and give them pick axes. Then make them stand 6 feet apart from one another and allow you to punch them in the face with the mechanical boxing glove you fashioned to your 1920s Model T.

[–]no_talent_ass_clown 2 points3 points ago

Let me preface this by saying I'm not the prettiest girl in town but the town is a sausage festival of oil field workers, so when I go to the bar on Saturday night....

That's why I like /r/linuxmemes No matter how bad my posts are they're always on the front page. ** ...Commits suicide * *

[–]Innovationwarp 2 points3 points ago

As a linux user, I can safely say that such a sub reddit should never have been made.

[–]happycrabeatsthefish 1 point2 points ago

With 44 readers the only upvotes come from Wilson. Where is he?!? He fell off my raft!!! WILSON!!! Commits suicide again

[–]rrwrwx 2 points3 points ago

in reality, they actually just fasten a cape to their shirt and act as though each up/down vote they use is some sort of gift of the gods that the submitter must be worthy to earn. Then they'll make a post about how hard it is for their shitty rage comic to get upvoted

[–]jnovocin 2 points3 points ago

it's true..i've seen people (including me) post something and not even 2 seconds later it's downvoted. some people just click new and downvote, it sucks

[–]brohmo 2 points3 points ago*

People browse r/new and downvote all the shite content. Which is pretty much all of it.

*edit: Sorry man.

[–]ocarinamaster64 2 points3 points ago

This is hilarious. Anybody know the source video?

[–]WeenisWrinkle 2 points3 points ago

The Little Rascals - Season 11 Episode 2 from 1932.

"Free Wheelin" is the name of the episode. It's a classic.

[–]ocarinamaster64 1 point2 points ago

Thank you.

[–]Carnae_Assada 2 points3 points ago

Its funny that this is a repost and the original was downvoted to hell.

[–]MeVersusShark[S] -1 points0 points ago

I had no idea. I dedicate it to OP.

[–]Carnae_Assada 1 point2 points ago

[–]davidmang 2 points3 points ago

[–]dumbgaytheist -1 points0 points ago

Free Wheeling

[–]GeneralWarts 5 points6 points ago

If it's someone's first time browsing new they probably feel like one of the guys on the side of the road.

[–]torontos_finest 4 points5 points ago

Sorry if this a stupid question, but isn't /r/new banned? I remember hearing about that way back when, am I missing something?

[–]longboardingrockgod 6 points7 points ago

He actually just means /new. as in the new posts. It's not actually a subreddit.

[–]Thassodar 1 point2 points ago

Then why don't people SAY that? It's frustrating when people link a subreddit or use it in a comment but it's "banned" and hundreds of other people link to the same subreddit too.

[–]longboardingrockgod 1 point2 points ago

I have no idea and completely agree. I will never understand why people link to /r/new when they actually mean /new/

[–]datingnerd 6 points7 points ago

[–]fauxnom 1 point2 points ago

Duh, how many people have a Model T and a spring loaded punching glove? I can confidently say that no one does this on r/new

[–]CarpetFibers 1 point2 points ago

What? You don't have one?

[–]MeVersusShark[S] 0 points1 point ago

I've got the spring-loaded punch glove, but I only walk around with it and pop people walking out of the new Three Stooges movie

[–]fauxnom 0 points1 point ago

Ugh...I forgot that existed...

[–]Snookerman 1 point2 points ago

Where is this gif from? I can't even guess.

[–]WeenisWrinkle 4 points5 points ago

Little Rascals Season 11, episode 2 - aired in October 1932.

In that episode, Stymie takes his rich friend Dickie for a ride to try and cure his stiff neck. The mule pushing the car gets drunk off of rubbing alcohol and ran away, so the boys decide to tie their car to the back of a truck - the truck heads down a steep hill, and the gang goes on a long, high-speed ride causing all kinds of mayhem on the way down.

That show is a classic, and is very re-watchable even today. I suggest trying to find it online if you can.

Never again am I going in /new after what I almost saw the other day. But my brain is filling in the blanks and it's fucking plaguing me. I wish nothing but a long, drawn-out and painful death for that motherfucker who did that unspeakable demonic shit and the same for the motherfucker who posted it.

Why on Earth people need to post that shit and why on Earth people need to see the shit is something that is destroying our society. Sick fucks all around, who've forfeited their right to breathe.

[–]Torger083 5 points6 points ago

Dude. What are you on about?

[–]MeVersusShark[S] 0 points1 point ago

Knowing Reddit, I know whatever it is, it's awful. However, I'm real curious now...

[–]tragic-waste-of-skin 1 point2 points ago

It goes beyond awful, it's extremely NSFL. Please, take my advice, do not look for it. You will regret it.

[–]MeVersusShark[S] 0 points1 point ago

Fair enough. I consider myself saved. And not in the born-again way.

[–]Thatguyispimp 1 point2 points ago

Don't, I used to browse new quite a bit because of all the terrible shit and reposts of reposts of reposts that other people were voting to the frontpage was getting unbearable. There is consistently posts that are "traps", saying one thing and actually being another. Such as "look at this cute puppy" and its a picture from lemon party/goatse/someones giant shit/gore/ you name it. I can handle all of that easily, its just some retards who have discovered the internet for the first time and are trying to be cool or think they are "master trolls". What made me stop was when someone created a trap that was actually child pornography. People are disgusting creatures

[–]MeVersusShark[S] 0 points1 point ago
