Is he saving his printer, or destroying it?

[–]dampierp 323 points324 points ago

"HP, we need to get the FUCK out of here!!"

[–]ladaghini 52 points53 points ago

It's not the printer he's trying to save. It's the unicorn blood ink that must be salvaged.

[–]bg-j38 15 points16 points ago

From above, here's the video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDUH1Pjl5Sk

I think it's funnier as a GIF because I thought he freaked out and tossed his printer out of an open window. SAVE THE PRINTER!!@

[–]bunhead 37 points38 points ago

answer "c", he's using it as a prop for this staged video

[–]jxcream 1 point2 points ago

so clearly staged, and if you watch the other video his 'moldovan' friend speaks with a very convincing american accent

[–]cheffernan 4 points5 points ago

Breaking the window as fast as possible so he can escape.

[–]TheyCallMeTomSawyer 2 points3 points ago

He's MacGyvering it, so whatever that entails.

[–]StonedPony 0 points1 point ago

I like how his printer uses wireless power.

[–]jozychan 227 points228 points ago

I'm sorry all i noticed was his pants..

[–]AnonymousHipopotamus 382 points383 points ago

All I noticed was that the printer didn't have any cables. Set design will make or break your video.

[–]skintigh 171 points172 points ago

I thought that was his escape-typewriter.

[–]ani625 99 points100 points ago

Any typewriter is an escape typewriter.

[–]citizen_coping 31 points32 points ago

And damn good game to hunt

[–]Cayou 18 points19 points ago

Just a wild guess: Hunter S. Thompson?

[–]Sypherin 8 points9 points ago

I am going to say that wasn't much of a "guess" but yeah it's him.

[–]2Weird2Live2Rare2Die 1 point2 points ago

Righty-o, man. Righty-o.

[–]Aquagoat 58 points59 points ago

Wireless printers are the bomb. Especially the new HP's that have wireless power.

[–]lemonwedge123 22 points23 points ago

[–]aboeve 5 points6 points ago

[–]handmedowntoy 4 points5 points ago

Thank you for the read, my old high school teacher once mentioned him as one of the most underrated scientist but I never really looked into him until now. He might be the subject for my next research paper :D

[–]skookybird 2 points3 points ago

Peep Show: Oh, it’s wireless.

[–]mokthraka 36 points37 points ago

except it does have a cable. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDUH1Pjl5Sk

1080p, you can even see the cable fall back when he pulls it out. and a lot of printers are wireless... so yeah... your kinda wrong.

[–]Andorion 1 point2 points ago

Notice the cut at 0:19, 0:31, and elsewhere? Not even a good fake.

[–]mokthraka 20 points21 points ago

once again I NEVER CLAIMED IT WAS REAL. All I said is that the printer is plugged in. even if it wasnt plugged in, that would in no way, alone, prove the video is fake(though it is). there are many times my printer isnt plugged in, just because it shares the same adapter as other things around my computer, and I have a limited amount of places to plug stuff in.

[–]randomsnark 13 points14 points ago

Even though I don't really care about the particular point you're making, I'm just gonna upvote you for fighting the good fight against people believing the right thing for the wrong reasons.

[–]Andorion 2 points3 points ago

I just realized my last few posts on Reddit have been to call "fake", I need to take a break!

[–]Culoomista 4 points5 points ago

In the video you can see what looks like a black cord quickly disconnect from the printer.

[–]facefull 1 point2 points ago

You can see the cable in the actual video.

[–]SuperShamou 1 point2 points ago

I haven't owned a printer in years. I figure someone would have invented a WiFi printer by now.

[–]w0bb 5 points6 points ago

yeah... they have.

[–]GeneralDemus 4 points5 points ago

my printer is wireless and the power cord is made to barely stay in. Realistic enough for me.

[–]LoveOfProfit 0 points1 point ago

I thought I noticed this too, but it does in fact have a cable attached to it that gets ripped out.

That said, the obvious cut in the video kinda ruins it.

[–]Adios_numero_two 0 points1 point ago

Age of wireless, yo.

[–]AliasJesus 62 points63 points ago

You think anybody wants a roundhouse kick to the face while I'm wearing these bad boys? Forget about it.

[–]norain91 22 points23 points ago

I actually own these pants because America that's why.

[–]penis-butter 5 points6 points ago

Break the wrist and walk away.

[–]scumbag760 1 point2 points ago

I came here to say this, well done

[–]arcturu5 2 points3 points ago

Upvote for Napoleon Dynamite reference. Favourite part of that scene is when he calls Napoleon 'Peter Pan'.

[–]theonewiththeface 17 points18 points ago

America, fuck yeah.

[–]TastyMilksteaks 6 points7 points ago

Freedom 'Jamas. Can't miss em.

[–]tastypinetree 2 points3 points ago

AMURRICA!

[–]StatutoryGrapist 1 point2 points ago

the pants made the entire situation alot more hilarious for me

[–]DicksonYamada 96 points97 points ago

[–]FoxxMD 10 points11 points ago

no one does it like the japanese

[–]fohacidal 42 points43 points ago

Holy shit the running out of the wall to chase him was even funnier

[–]shatteredmindofbob 15 points16 points ago

I don't know if I'd want to live in Japan. It seems like at any given moment, you're suddenly the victim of an elaborate cruel prank

[–]planarshift 8 points9 points ago

Don't worry, because all of these "pranks" are set-ups on famous comedians and are all pre-rehearsed beforehand. Anything you see on Japanese TV that looks "spontaneous" has all been discussed and planned a million times before it was actually shot. Some famous people have even gotten in trouble for not reacting the way they were "supposed to" in whatever situation they were put in. Sorry, Japan is actually pretty boring.

[–]push_the_button 4 points5 points ago

I'm not sure if it would be more funny or less funny if I understood what they were saying.

[–]distractthepaladin 4 points5 points ago

It would have been a bonus if the guy had gone all ninja on her ass after she broke through the wall.

[–]just_uss 14 points15 points ago

This wouldn't work in America... I would've kicked the shit out of that chick when she busted out of the wall.

[–]amezbro 28 points29 points ago

Yeah I don't know maybe the Japanese are too polite to beat the shit out of ghosts?

[–]syaz 10 points11 points ago

Yeah everytime there'll be someone saying how they'll be such badass when it happens to them. I trust you because you said so... it must be true.

[–]jdk 1 point2 points ago

That makes me want to see a case where the guest was not fazed.

[–]PullOutBoy 1 point2 points ago

mother of god...

[–]adam934 70 points71 points ago

Are those official Rex kwon do roundhouse kicking pants?

[–]nachopoop789 22 points23 points ago

You think I got to where I am now, dressed like peter pan over there?!

[–]janitar1 13 points14 points ago

No Rex Kwon Do pants have the stripes going vertically not horizontally :/

[–]norain91 2 points3 points ago

Yeah man. You mean you don't wear them all the time?

[–]SimilarImage 305 points306 points ago

[–]carlotta4th 23 points24 points ago*

Only 3 reposts so far? Not bad, actually.

EDIT: Oh. 16 more matches. XD Well, I hadn't seen the clip before, so I suppose things must repost now and then for those who've missed it/are new.

[–][deleted] 62 points63 points ago

See 16 more matches at KarmaDecay

So more like 19 reposts so far.

[–]AMostOriginalUserNam 11 points12 points ago

One post, 18 reposts.

[–]cameron432 12 points13 points ago

And this one, so, 19.

[–]macnlz 25 points26 points ago

Nice riposte.

[–]Miller-STGT 7 points8 points ago

This repostbots are awesome. But I did not know it so I laughed so hard at work that I had to go out of the office and hide in the toilette.

[–]pirate_tom 17 points18 points ago

Argh, that sentence was painful to read

[–]Judiciary_Pag 6 points7 points ago

Just read it in a goofy European accent, it becomes magical.

[–]TarantusaurusRex 4 points5 points ago

It helps to read it in the voice of Skwisgaar Skwigelf.

[–]rclosurez -4 points-3 points ago

Wait what? This is awesome. I have been contemplating leaving due to reposts!

[–]iPlunder 33 points34 points ago

Oh no, you can never leave.

[–]randolama 13 points14 points ago

[–]randomsnark 2 points3 points ago

I dunno man, there's this other really good website that people keep recommending every time I ask them where I'd go if I got off reddit. I think it's called Outside or something.

It doesn't have any kind of karma system though, which is both interesting and kind of worrying.

[–]-CUNT- 0 points1 point ago

Wait what? This is awesome. I have been contemplating leaving due to reposts!

Bull fucking shit. You were just going to abandon an amazing community driven link site for what? No more? Just can't handle the reposts and your just done with this type of site? Or did you have a place in mind that was some how magically devoid of copy cat material? Maybe you were going to say, fuck it! and start spending more time on Google News? Wikipedia? Where friend where? No. I think your just full of shit bitching about the same trivial shit as the next yokel.

A repost is a repost is a repost and it can be at worst mildly annoying but to become vocal about such an inconsequential problem. Jesus Christ man pipe the fuck down.

[–]supergcha 8 points9 points ago

[–]speak_n_spell 2 points3 points ago

you're doing god's work, son

[–]methoxeta 38 points39 points ago

[–]mrpunchy 39 points40 points ago

It's old, and not WTF at all...

[–]Jaboomaphoo 7 points8 points ago

Holy shit. I thought I was in /r/funny until this comment.

[–]admvb 11 points12 points ago

[–]skintigh 18 points19 points ago

Wow... it is unbelievably fake once you watch the video. He didn't notice the guys legs sticking out the side of his desk for all the time? Wireless printer?

[–]Eupho 2 points3 points ago

Pfft Printer runs on batteries duh.

[–]kerrigan2 3 points4 points ago

This was a response to this

[–]pibroch 6 points7 points ago

Both videos are dumb.

[–]dmagee33 1 point2 points ago

I love how he slowly stops singing as he realizes the window is open.

[–]auraofambiance 2 points3 points ago

The door to get out was riiiiight there!!!

[–]ravensfan866 2 points3 points ago

where can i purchase those pants

[–]TheKillerToast 4 points5 points ago

I guess those colors do run...

[–]red321red321 6 points7 points ago

this is an accurate reenactment of what i do when there's a spider or mosquito in my room.

[–]1Chance 11 points12 points ago

Mosquito? You poor pathetic little thing..

[–]emniem 3 points4 points ago

You need some South Florida training. See a roach on the wall... run up to it and whack the shit out of it with your bare hand, clean up the goop afterwards. I'm normally skittish about such matters but in S.Fl. you grow some nads to deal with it, or they learn they have the run of the house.

[–]red321red321 1 point2 points ago

classy

[–]siebharinn 1 point2 points ago

but true

[–]Figment_HF 13 points14 points ago

Clearly staged. You even see him go for the lamp before he spots the other dude. Sorry if this is obvious it just seemed like some of you thought this was a genuine reaction.

[–][deleted] 13 points14 points ago

the guy touched him first then went for a lamp

[–]Figment_HF 4 points5 points ago

Yeah he did. I missed the touch. I still think it's staged though.

[–][deleted] 22 points23 points ago

yeah i do too, i just wanted to prove you wrong, it makes me feel better about my self

[–]MizterFreez 15 points16 points ago

He clearly did not go for the lamp before seeing the person under the table...

[–]dancesformoney 2 points3 points ago

I remember seeing this on youtube a while ago, and most people pointed out that the printer doesn't seem to have any cables... It could be just disconnected, just laying there, but it contributes to what you said.

[–]slowbie 1 point2 points ago

There's pretty clearly a power cord in the youtube video. I think it's clearly staged, but just saying.

[–]Talicmar 1 point2 points ago

Fuck doors

[–]Maudlin09 1 point2 points ago

Why escape through the door when the window is so close and so easily smashable? Amiright?

[–]TRex77 1 point2 points ago

How long has he been planning for that by reenacting it in his head? I bet a long time.

[–]chrisch0731 1 point2 points ago

I have those pants.

[–]JavaPants 1 point2 points ago

The Rex-kwando pants did it for me.

[–]pcnerd37 1 point2 points ago

As awesome as this is, I can't help but wonder how you don't realize there is a guy sticking out the side of the table?

[–]athiestteen 1 point2 points ago

how the heck did he not notice a guy at his feet? at that point did his friends tell him to look this up? then didnt he see below his chair at some point? this is just bad staging.

[–]LuckyAmeliza 1 point2 points ago

Ah, I remember my first screamer... I quite literally almost had a heart attack. Incidentally that's also how I discovered Albinoblacksheep.com ... sigh memories.

[–]mastr_slik 1 point2 points ago

who watched this at least 5 times?

[–]Dragon_yum 1 point2 points ago

The printer isn't connected to anything ಠ_ಠ

[–]Nyzher 1 point2 points ago

That's so funny. This is the perfect reaction.

[–]account__2 1 point2 points ago

Why was the old woman grabbing his dick?

[–]kvancek[S] 1 point2 points ago

OP here. You people do realize that what might be reposts to you is new to others. I found this GIF months ago on /b/. Explain the 6,708 upvotes.

[–]platypusmusic 1 point2 points ago

Explain the 6,708 upvotes.

Easy: one man, multiple accounts.

[–]bushmecj 1 point2 points ago

That would of been real awkward for him if his roommate started fapping instead of doing the maze prank.

[–]middleendian 1 point2 points ago

So fake.

[–]m0rtigitempo 6 points7 points ago

Oh awesome, another repost of a repost of a repost of a repost of a repost of a gif that was popular probably sometime around 2002

[–]Lareit 4 points5 points ago

That is also staged.

[–]GodGinger -1 points0 points ago

Congratulations you spend too much time on the internet. Quit bitching about reposts and let us who haven't seen them already enjoy them.

No way is a printer, with or without cables, going anywhere in that situation other than straight into the face that just scared the shit out of you... and yet he has the presence of mind to prepare an escape route THROUGH A WINDOW.

[–]MoonRazer 0 points1 point ago

Oh shit! Evil girl! Oh SHIT, she's in my room! * Throws Lamp * How did that not work!? Plan failed, WINDOW!

[–]AdierteSanchez 0 points1 point ago

[–]Gaddy 0 points1 point ago

I would have used the door right next to the window.. That's me though.

[–]RainbowPopsicle 0 points1 point ago

I would have reacted in a similar way until he threw the printer out the window. At that point I would have used the printer to pummel the bastard with the mask on.

Possibly why Awkward Maniac never tried this kind of crap when we were kid.
