This comment generated by an automated bot. Is this match wrong?

[–]IMasturbateToMyself 41 points42 points ago

This is seriously the most useful bot ever. I am so thankful.

[–]science87 30 points31 points ago

Either this or trapped_in_reddit

[–]TyphlosionsWrath 5 points6 points ago

Or originalfinderfinder.

[–]Therealsebastiandior 0 points1 point ago

The part with Tyrone makes it not 100%

[–]LeftoverBoots 0 points1 point ago

It's a lie!

[–]Arcon1337 1 point2 points ago

Welcome to the internet. Leave the truth at the door.

[–]Rallerboy888 -1 points0 points ago

No, that's cake

[–]Mister_AA 153 points154 points ago

Way to take the top comment and get karma off it!

[–]RamblinWreckGT 8 points9 points ago

And thanks to original-finder, I can go to that post and upvote the guy with the top comment!

[–]AnotherClosetAtheist 39 points40 points ago

Way to reply to the top comment and get karma off it!

[–]n8wolf 10 points11 points ago

So meta...

[–]Kohbl 0 points1 point ago

It's like seeing my comment all over again.

[–]Bakufun 8 points9 points ago

You better reread that...

[–]n8wolf 107 points108 points ago

He's not actually asking where the W is. He's pointing out the optical illusion caused by dyed strings. It is an odd concept that the W from the racket (or racquet) would not translate to the shadow as it looks like it's laid across the strings as opposed to integrated within them.

Hence, "trippy." Some people are, in fact, stupid. Others are intrigued by visual inconsistencies. Give Tyrone a break.

[–]InsanitySK 10 points11 points ago

[–]TheFinalChronos 12 points13 points ago

I swear I can see nipple at one point.

[–]n8wolf 1 point2 points ago

Cannot. Unsee.

[–]StringMaple 7 points8 points ago

Why would you want to?

[–]n8wolf 0 points1 point ago

...touche

[–]Renmauzuo 26 points27 points ago

But how can we get on our r/funny moral high horses and act better than people if we don't assume they're stupid?

[–]n8wolf 11 points12 points ago

We still can. I'll just read those comments while dismissively chuckling to myself.

I'll start. MUTHAFUCKA HAS TO PLUG IN HIS AUX CABLE! LOLOL MAYBE GET SYNC NEXT TIME CUNT!

[–]sgt_deacon 1 point2 points ago

I now feel slightly bad for having to use this in my car now.

[–]n8wolf 9 points10 points ago

I'm not one to talk. This is my car.

[–]johnhipsterchill 1 point2 points ago

I'm actually jealous. My car only has a CD player, no casettes or aux. So I'm stuck making mix cds...

[–]That_Canadian_Eh 4 points5 points ago

I agree. It's a very entertaining visual inconsistency and gives us insight on how our eyes work with the brain.

Tyrone could have worded it with a higher diction, but I agree. "Trippy" somewhat fits the image.

[–]RarneyBubble 5 points6 points ago

Nice try, Tyrone's mother.

[–]Frohirrim 2 points3 points ago

Did anyone really think differently? What's the alternative?

[–]lLoveLamp 1 point2 points ago

Poor Tyrone cannot have his shit at peace

[–]Vlyn 1 point2 points ago

You're right, I was "fascinated" as a small kid of that too. Looked at the strings… at the shadow and was like: Ohhh! That's neat!

[–]IknowBUDS 1 point2 points ago

who the hell wouldn't know it was just dyed strings

[–]n8wolf 2 points3 points ago

Tyrone.

[–]elliot_t -2 points-1 points ago

This is exactly why everyone is making fun of him. It's absolutely ridiculous to think that the W is laid across the strings as opposed to integrated within them. It's not a visual inconsistency at all. It's not trippy at all. It's common sense.

[–]n8wolf 3 points4 points ago

Must have been fun growing up with no sense of wonder. I bet you're a joy at parties.

[–]MANCREEP 0 points1 point ago

Not as much fun lol.

[–]Ztiller 0 points1 point ago

Or he could just be a moron.

[–]Natural_One 0 points1 point ago

Source?

[–]Millhopper10 4 points5 points ago

Am I safe in assuming that "Cuh" is short for cousin?

[–]PrettyassDolphin 1 point2 points ago

It's used like bro or brah

[–]Bluest_waters 0 points1 point ago

Okay, was wondering about that

[–]Baconoflight 2 points3 points ago

Better question - how is the racquet floating?

[–]Lhabs 4 points5 points ago

[–]I_am_not_angry 8 points9 points ago

He had to be named Tyrone...

[–]B92JOHNSON 0 points1 point ago

"It was at a funny angle" I lost all shit...

[–]hatkid 20 points21 points ago

Congratulations, you have combined two terrible reposts into a new piece of content. Why didn't trapped_in_reddit think of this?

[–][deleted] 7 points8 points ago

Because it involves more steps than he's willing to take.

[–]JakeSanchard 6 points7 points ago

So we're putting posts together with their top comments and posting them in a single image, is that what we're doing now? Cool.

[–]Mikey-2-Guns 1 point2 points ago

Tyrone is the new Shaniqua.

[–]milfordcubicle 1 point2 points ago

at least badminton is a fairly refined sport

[–]fiftydays 1 point2 points ago

must have disappeared it by the magic of photoshop. wow. skillz !

[–]Just_One_Redditor 4 points5 points ago

cuh?!?!?

[–]SantiagoAndDunbar -2 points-1 points ago

Slang for cuz or cousin. Usually used by gang members affiliated with the Crips. (hence why they use words beginning with C)

[–]PrettyassDolphin 0 points1 point ago

Also by everyone else nowadays.

[–]SantiagoAndDunbar 0 points1 point ago

true but the c'z started the "trend"

[–]gidjun 0 points1 point ago

I KNOW you want summa my Eggs Tyrone!

[–]brownpaperful 0 points1 point ago

who gives a shit if it's a repost. some of us don't live on reddit and will probably miss it the first time around.

[–]sampearl1 0 points1 point ago

for facebook posts go to /r/facepalm, please...

[–]The_Amberlamps 0 points1 point ago

On Facebook, via Instagram, with hash tags...

[–]YaMoBeThere 0 points1 point ago

[–]DiabeticHorse 0 points1 point ago

It's a cool idea/picture once you get past your ignorance. Says a lot about color.

[–]ConLogKeifer 0 points1 point ago

Arg...Why do stupid people make me soooo mad?!

[–]Tomus 0 points1 point ago

So you actually took a joke from the thread and posted it to get karma? You are an awful redditor, and human being.

[–]ObliviousDerpMaster 0 points1 point ago

But... where did it go"?"

[–]dersand 0 points1 point ago

I'm sorry, am i the only idiot who do not get this?

[–]kingproz 0 points1 point ago

I was waiting for someone to make this connection when i saw this last night but I was too lazy to marry the images

[–]imawesomeyourenot 0 points1 point ago

Please don't downvote me: Why would there not be traces of red still shining through, as though the red strings were acting like a translucent lens?

[–]i_cant_find_a_name 0 points1 point ago

When will I stop seeing this picture.

[–]arcanition 0 points1 point ago

Wow bro, you literally took a front page picture, slapped the top comment's picture on it, and reposted it.

You are the worst kind of people.

[–]Just_One_Redditor 0 points1 point ago

O similar image, where art thou

[–]TheKatness -4 points-3 points ago

I'm still amazed that people can be that stupid.

[–]EriktheRed -3 points-2 points ago

Checkmate, atheists!

[–]j1mb0 -3 points-2 points ago

Fuck you, you fucking whore.

[–]brocho -1 points0 points ago

Why did this get so many upvotes? It's just a repost with a top comment attached (which is also a repost). Is reddit just running out?

[–]dang_Ling_modify_her 0 points1 point ago

Running out of what? This is Reddit.

[–]hafti77 -2 points-1 points ago

obvious troll is obvious

[–]HayHaxor -2 points-1 points ago

Really i didnt want to do this but

Shit tyrone.... Get it together.

[–]HayHaxor 2 points3 points ago

I saw the rest of the picture shortly after posting this. I apologize.

[–]n8wolf 0 points1 point ago

Props for leaving up the original. Relish in it.
