So a website took a photo that Stephen Colbert himself took, branded it, and now it's being reposted for karma?

Yeah, I don't see anything wrong with this.

[–][deleted] 15 points16 points ago

Nice job stealing a picture and adding a watermark to it like your shitty blog owns it, MyConfinedSpace.com.

I'm pretty sure that's illegal.

[–]callmesuspect 0 points1 point ago

It's not illegal, because that site is /hosting/ the image. Still a dick move.

[–]traken 0 points1 point ago

Oh, yes. Copyright infringement isn't illegal because torrents are simply "hosting" the movie.

[–]DrinkinMcGee 4 points5 points ago

Hmm...well, the summoning worked on Wil Wheaton, I wonder....

COLBERT!

[–]jjtarr 2 points3 points ago

Why would you think this had never been posted?

[–]fungaljungle 19 points20 points ago

Please stop posting this picture, this is the fourth time I've seen it here.

[–]konig7 5 points6 points ago

fourth? fourth this god damn month.

[–]Mioby 25 points26 points ago

This is actually the first time I've seen it.

[–]konig7 -1 points0 points ago

seems like you got downvoted for saying you havnt seen this before. I dont agree with these tactics so I will contribute to your karma in full (1 upvote).

[–]Luckftw -2 points-1 points ago

And it seems you were downvoted for upvoting the downvoted guy.Have an upvote on me!

[–]konig7 1 point2 points ago

OMG WE KNOW.

[–]udizzle92 1 point2 points ago

I understand the whole argument of "just because you've seen it, doesn't mean everyone has." But did you REALLY think that reddit hasn't seen a picture of Stephen Colbert, the guy who's on the front page everytime he has a loose stool, wearing a reddit shirt and holding a cup with his reddit alien on it?

[–]legdrop 5 points6 points ago

I would follow him to hell and back I would

[–]elcucuuuy 4 points5 points ago

He's gave a shoutout to his bronies on his last episode

[–]konydanza 2 points3 points ago

He also followed that statement by claiming that he had absolutely no idea what that meant.

[–]GuyWithFace 4 points5 points ago

I read somewhere that he did that 'shoutout' because during his pre-recording Q&A, someone in the audience asked if Colbert was a 'brony', and when he asked what that was, another audience member mentioned they watched the show with their niece. So, Colbert did the shoutout for that guy's niece, even though he still had no idea what a brony was.

Looking for reference now, will update if/when I find it.

[–]misterxy89 0 points1 point ago

Nor do I

[–]NameTak3r 0 points1 point ago

Lies.

[–]Rnway 0 points1 point ago

Actually, in his most recent episode, he specifically "did not give a shoutout to my bronies", stating that he felt he had been dragged into "a dark corner of humanity".

[–]callmesuspect 1 point2 points ago

This photo is posted like once a fucking week.

How does it still get so many fucking upvotes?

[–]DeathFromWithin 1 point2 points ago

I have this conspiracy theory that Colbert is secretly POLITE_ALLCAPS_GUY

[–]Siethron 2 points3 points ago

Colbert the Karma whore.

[–]babyloniandotgov 0 points1 point ago

I mean, either that or someone just mailed him those! Either way, it's neat, I guess.

[–]BrokenBraviaInOregon 0 points1 point ago

Whoa, weird. In the mirror it looks like he has the cup lifted up top his lips.

[–]rockmongoose 0 points1 point ago

Are those eagles being reflected in his eyes?

[–]nerfcaltrops 0 points1 point ago

Oh look, it's this post again.

[–]YellowCar 0 points1 point ago

One of us! One of us! One of us!

[–]bryanp71 -4 points-3 points ago

if real............Hell Yeah

[–]appi -1 points0 points ago

Colbert is a redditor???? Holy shit mind = blown! Thank you so much for telling us! Upboat for you!!! I had no idea Stephen Colbert was such a huge fan of this website!

[–]vonillabean -2 points-1 points ago

The feelings of both excitement and dread came over me when I saw his shirt.

[–]RevWaldo -2 points-1 points ago

Gotta give him points karma for making the photo 'shop-resistant.

[–]stewiecubed 2 points3 points ago

Probably none at all. It's well known that Colbert is an avid redditor.
