Source in case anyone cares.

[–]donutsalad 13 points14 points ago

Thanks. Now I'm wondering why the white part on the bottom with the website and copyright info isn't on this picture.

[–]Todomanna 3 points4 points ago

They probably found it on another website. Or this website.

[–]ugug51 0 points1 point ago

Someone took it off...

[–]Dmuff 5 points6 points ago

Very clever.

[–]mechy84 2 points3 points ago

Immediately thought of this.

Maybe Seabass just wanted to hang out?

[–]morepewpewlessqq 2 points3 points ago

REPOOOOOOOOST.

[–]rootbeerismythang 1 point2 points ago

They left out the part where they create a secret handshake. Everyone knows that's the kingpin for a good time.

[–]starlilyth 1 point2 points ago

Reposted AND rehosted.

[–]MagnusTheGreat 2 points3 points ago

This is why you should not judge someone by their looks...

[–]eblees 5 points6 points ago

if you see a phone number on bathroom, call it and big hairy guy in van comes at you. you have my permission to judge a book by its cover

[–]MagnusTheGreat 0 points1 point ago

Would you rather like it if a pretty girl would give you her number and harvest your organs for money?

[–]eblees 1 point2 points ago

if i had to chose between a pretty girl doing that to me or big hairy guy i would rather the pretty girl does it.

[–]sumeone123 0 points1 point ago

I would as long as her father is a manager of a fairly well known UK football team, I pretend I'm going somewhere with my friends so that my parents won't know where I am for weeks, and I get a free plane ticket out of it.

[–]borninthedark 2 points3 points ago

I wanna meet that guy. Seems like a great time.

[–]iconrunner 1 point2 points ago

Fuck OP for not crediting source.

[–]TheTacticalApe -1 points0 points ago

That's a little harsh, don't you think?

[–]Psythik -1 points0 points ago

no

[–]JayGatsby727 1 point2 points ago

Where did OP give the source? I see other people who did that because he wouldn't...

[–]Kabalslegion 0 points1 point ago

That is awesome I wish it were true.

[–]Terrh 0 points1 point ago

Lol'd hard.

[–]schluecker 0 points1 point ago

Still waiting to take someone out...

[–]wtfmanquestionmark -3 points-2 points ago

You are either new to reddit or just an asshole. Either way, please do a quick search for anything before posting. This image shows up every 3 months. We get it. It was funny.

[–]Streakiest 8 points9 points ago

3 months is quite a long time, man. A lot of people will not have seen this.

so yeah cool yer jets

[–]BobTheSheriff 2 points3 points ago

I haven't seen it.

[–]wtfmanquestionmark -1 points0 points ago

I hate this website these days.

[–]CommissarGray 1 point2 points ago

Because new people join who haven't seen everything? Well, sorry sir for soiling your precious internet veteran site, I wasn't aware new people aren't allowed.

[–]wtfmanquestionmark 0 points1 point ago

New people are always welcome and that goes way beyond what is and is not a repost. Turns out that I'm breaking the rules by bitching just as much as people are for reposting. So, I'll stop bitching if people agree to do a quick check first before posting something.

Problem: Most "new" users create fake accounts, rack up karma, sell the accounts. Rinse and repeat.

Solution: Call out those fuckers and break the rules because I come from the hood mother fucker and I don't take shit from bitches who don't play by the rules.

Actual Solution: Fuck it. I'll just delete my account and grow up. I'm sick of seeing the same stuff, so rather than change the community, which I obviously can't, I'll control what I can and just quit. Then I'll create a new account, repost my ass off and sell that account to the highest bidder.

With users like you it will be fucking simple.

[–]CommissarGray 1 point2 points ago

Ah, the sweet smell of rage.

Now while you do raise a good point about the fact that everyone should just stop complaining about it, I have to say that the 'problem' you bring up is complete bullshit. You think people would tart about on a website for meaningless points so they can sell the accounts? Karma is nothing more than a way to filter out shit content and good content.

But users like yourself, who seem to attribute some kind of real world value to karma, are the heart of why people repost old images.

You wanna change the community? Grow up.

[–]wtfmanquestionmark 2 points3 points ago

PR firms will pay money for an account that gets to the frontage quickly. This is a fact. Feel free to pretend the homepage isn't paid for. Granted all posts are likely not purchased accounts, but enough are. I've already written a script that finds imgur links, saves the URL and title, then one month later will post the same to any account I want. I'm tempted to use it.

Reddit makes it too easy and too many people don't care. Why should I?

[–]CommissarGray 0 points1 point ago

Do it then. In fact, we're civilised gentlemen, why don't we make it a social experiment? Test your script out for, say, 5 months then post the results for everyone to see. That would prove whether or not karma farming is as easy as you say. I'm not entirely sure what it would prove beyond that, but it would help you make a much stronger point.

Also, hell, everyone knows PR firms buy into reddit, but there are no 'front-page accounts', it all comes down to the votes on the content.

[–]wtfmanquestionmark 1 point2 points ago

I started last night. I decided to turn it into an experiment where I'm going to grab all links from the front page that are imgur and then in 1 month I'll repost it, record the original up/down votes and my up/down votes. I'm going to keep everything practically the same. Then I'll make minor tweaks to see how that changes performance. I can't sell them regardless of money because I like the site too much, but I'm definitely interested in seeing how well it works.

The only major problem is testing the API. You can get stopped pretty easily with a "You are trying this too often. Please try again in 35 minutes".

[–]Watchman304 1 point2 points ago

More than that, I've seen it at least twice in the past three weeks.

[–]Thunderp -1 points0 points ago

Yes, yes, a million times yes!

[–]jsteezin -2 points-1 points ago

rrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeepppppppppppooooooooooosssssssssssttttttttttt

[–]clayides -4 points-3 points ago

[–]Streakiest 4 points5 points ago

Yeah because everyone would have seen it there. 3 months ago.

[–]clayides -4 points-3 points ago

Bitch please, if it were ok to repost after every three months this website would be utter shit.

[–]Streakiest 0 points1 point ago

Look, read this, please. It will make everything slightly more pleasant for everyone!

I'll at least highlight this, if you don't have the time or patience.

Search for duplicates before posting. That said, sometimes bad timing, a bad title, or just plain bad luck can cause an interesting story to fail to get noticed. Feel free to post something again if you feel that the earlier posting didn't get the attention it deserved and you think you can do better.

Your example got 3 votes! On a subreddit with under 300 subscribers! That's ridiculously small. Pretty much no one saw it. Repost justified, 'bitch'!

[–]clayides 0 points1 point ago*

You've got to be kidding me, I think it Hitting the front page before makes it have more than 3 upvotes. Also this has been reposted dozens of times I think that I'm justified in calling this out as a repost as most of them have hit over 300 karma. That original comic was just the comic I had as a saved link, that's why it only had 3 upvotes. I am sick of seeing this post.

[–]Streakiest 0 points1 point ago

All of those are several years ago...

Are you perhaps accelerating through time at a faster than normal rate, causing you to perceive events several months apart as only being a day apart? That seems like something to see a doctor about.

Since the post has been upvoted like heck, clearly many people are enjoying it, probably because they've not seen it before, or possess the amazing ability to enjoy something again after a large period of time has passed.

[–]clayides 0 points1 point ago

Again like wtfmanquestionmark said this pops up about every three months, again those were just the first examples I could find. Also so what if a post has been upvoted like heck, reposting is still reposting. Here's one that was submitted 2 months ago, Here's one from 6 months ago, and the last one 9. It really does pop up around every three months, check the dates on those links. Sure people are enjoying it, but how would you feel if you've had to see this comic time after time? Obviously anything that's reposted with alot of upvotes people will enjoy, but it's ruining this website by re churning the same stuff repeatedly. I don't know where in your right mind reposting is now a tolerable thing.

[–]Watchman304 -5 points-4 points ago

I have seen this posted on every corner of the internet. It's about as far from original as a cat asking for a cheezburger. Please, make your own jokes.

[–]Streakiest 3 points4 points ago

Yeah I hate seeing links shared on a link sharing site. ಠ_ಠ

[–]TheTacticalApe 1 point2 points ago

I've been on the internet for a while and I haven't seen this before. Cool yer jets.

[–]icepickjones -3 points-2 points ago

Rob and Elliot at least deserve a modicum of respect, no need to cut out the website on the comic gutters.

[–]icepickjones 0 points1 point ago

Don't down vote me just because I'm calling out your theft
