The marks on his body spell 'FUCK" HA!

[–]kamp5764 192 points193 points ago

Thank you sir, now I feel silly

[–]kwyjibohunter 177 points178 points ago

I feel silly for looking for a black guy

And a little bit racist

[–]whyisthisnamesolong 52 points53 points ago

Don't be silly, black people don't swim.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

Do you mind if I report you to /r/SRS for some juicy link karma?

[–]whyisthisnamesolong 0 points1 point ago

I would be honoured to be on SRS' blacklist.

[–]Lintron 8 points9 points ago

I was looking for a black fish.

[–]YannisNeos 2 points3 points ago

A black fish with his dick hanging out

[–]AgentKittenMittens 17 points18 points ago

I'm pretty sure we all do.

[–]TheKnifeMaster 2 points3 points ago

How could there be a black guy. This is in the water.

Black people can't swim...

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points ago

Its underwater so you wouldn't find one

I can't even believe I wrote this.

[–]coaxfun 3 points4 points ago

Actually, underwater is exactly where you'd find them...

[–]ON3i11 1 point2 points ago

does it make me racist if I ROFLMFAO'd all over the place?

[–]dulcislol 1 point2 points ago

Ofcourse not, turds float! .. I'm going to hell.

[–]youreuglyasfu 1 point2 points ago

i was looking for a vagina

[–]Jaboomaphoo 1 point2 points ago

If I don't find a black guy or a ghost in these posts I usually give up.

[–]kamp5764 0 points1 point ago

I lol'd from this

[–]CalmDownOverThere 4 points5 points ago

Me too...

[–]chole15 2 points3 points ago

I am right with you. I saw nothing.

[–]mrive51 30 points31 points ago

[–]iGGlass 5 points6 points ago

I was like, "His ass is actually his face, right?" I was wrong...

[–]ntvarify 6 points7 points ago

Thank you, I am so bad at these things.

[–]underthemilkyway 12 points13 points ago

WTF has went down hill since school got out.

[–]Ugbrog 2 points3 points ago

something something sweet summer children

[–]JonasMcPherson 0 points1 point ago

gone.

[–]ocelot67 1 point2 points ago

WTF has went downhill since school gone out. That's much better.

[–]BTM_FDR 9 points10 points ago

I probably never would have saw that if it wasn't for you!

[–]internet_dragon 2 points3 points ago

You saved me five minutes of my life. Thank you.

[–]weecefwew 2 points3 points ago

That's it? I spent like 5 minutes looking for some camouflaged predator lurking in the background.

[–]Beaverkiller2004 3 points4 points ago

FUCK I NEVER SEE IT!

[–]onegeekyguy 1 point2 points ago

Huh.... I thought it was some sort of mutated fish. The black dot on the left looked like an eye.

[–]orangecauliflower 1 point2 points ago

Thats what its supposed to do, its called an ocellus and used to distract predators from ripping off the fish's face.

[–]pyrowitlighter1 1 point2 points ago

To add to orangecaulifloower, Notice how their doesn't seem to be any vital organs near that ocellus, not a coincidence.

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/ocellus

[–]orangecauliflower 0 points1 point ago

Yes most butterflyfish including this copperband have elongated bodies with ocellus in order to protect and distract.

[–]disuse 1 point2 points ago

A thank you.

[–]Phaquebzech 0 points1 point ago

[–]MechaToast 0 points1 point ago

[–]HappyDays7 -1 points0 points ago

... Well. That's pretty stupid.

[–]doomfest -1 points0 points ago

Looked at his scales for about 10 minute, and 5 more before that - and I finally saw it.

[–]WarmBaths 215 points216 points ago

I was busy looking for dicks in the anemone

[–]I_am_anonymous 138 points139 points ago

I then moved on to looking for the hidden black guy.

[–]lwest340 65 points66 points ago

After that I searched for the Goatse

[–]Cobruh 51 points52 points ago

pedobear top right.

[–]NotQuiteOnTopic 52 points53 points ago

I was nervously waiting for something to pop out and make loud noises.

[–]trollmenot 36 points37 points ago

First thing, checked if the fish was pooping, peeing, or had a boner.

[–]Pot4DMasses 19 points20 points ago

... I don't know how to tell if the fish has a boner. Is that why I'm missing it?

[–]Simi566 12 points13 points ago

Then on to the the sexing fish In the backround

[–]Mustangbex 9 points10 points ago

I had to upvote everyone one of you bastards- way to completely outline the process, step by step...

[–]theblackpearls 1 point2 points ago

Same here. I had never really thought about the check list, but those just about cover it.

[–]pyrowitlighter1 1 point2 points ago

and one for you good sir, for your indubitable kindness.

[–]spacecadet9 28 points29 points ago

damn, I actually checked for a pedobear

[–]Asiance 2 points3 points ago

Made me look -.-

[–]cheese007 18 points19 points ago

Never knew what Goatse was, decided to google it... I will never be the same again.

[–]cakeswithahuman 17 points18 points ago

Have you... never used the internet before?

[–]mkhopper 5 points6 points ago

Oh well then hell you may as look up lemon party too. Can't scar you any worse.

[–]ON3i11 2 points3 points ago

ever heard of "jar squatter"? It's like disney land, but better. You should search it up.

[–]tsuki_toh_hoshi 1 point2 points ago

Why must you return my painful memories!! I had forgotten him....... Id rather see goatse than that nightmare. :p

[–]lwest340 1 point2 points ago

You poor bastard...

[–]robotlove28 3 points4 points ago

I'm scared. Should I actually look at Goatse or should I keep my innocence?

[–]invalidusernamelol 9 points10 points ago

Keep you innocence its not worth it...

[–]Morethan20 0 points1 point ago

you will not be able to unsee it - keep your innocence

[–]robotlove28 0 points1 point ago

Okay......I'll make sure my innocence stays safe..

[–]darthbean18 0 points1 point ago

It involves anuses in an unpleasant way. Let your mind wander.

[–]-Emerica- 1 point2 points ago

But we're underwater here. Black people can't swim silly!

[–]EyeGee_88 9 points10 points ago

Haha. Me too! One of them kinda looked like a dick.

[–]Fusion124 3 points4 points ago

Well they all look like my dick.

[–]NBurg 2 points3 points ago

This picture is anemone-less. Its a torch coral, a half dead torch coral at that.

[–]DubaiCM 47 points48 points ago

That is a photoshopped copper-banded butterfly fish (Chelmon rostratus) if you are interested.

[–]mbrady 10 points11 points ago

Don't you mean Chelmon rostratus photoshopus?

[–]KatzIncorporated 2 points3 points ago

No

[–][deleted] 11 points12 points ago

Well... I thought it was funny.

[–]Kalvynn 0 points1 point ago

It's photoshopped??????????

[–]DudeNudem 62 points63 points ago

Fuck. Where is it?

[–]ErsatzCats 12 points13 points ago

I see what you did there

[–]redmightbegreen 70 points71 points ago

I saw it almost immediately. Also, three years ago.

[–]BulletBilll 16 points17 points ago

And I believe it was proven to be a fake also.

[–]Zilvreen 10 points11 points ago

[–]marsist 31 points32 points ago

I have seen it. Every goddamn time it gets reposted

[–]damendred 14 points15 points ago

It's fake and older than the internet.

Might as well reactivate my stumble upon account at this rate.

[–]Mrsilverhammer 4 points5 points ago

I still use stumble upon. I feel like I find more original content than reddit most days.

[–]joculator 8 points9 points ago

Hello year 2000

[–]Halojatahoo 6 points7 points ago

[–]Brittanica6 0 points1 point ago

Thank you! I was hoping someone would post this!

[–]Mikehunts4cunts 11 points12 points ago

This is so old and fake. But I will admit I said WTF. As in WTF is this thing still doing on the internet.

[–]Energy_Turtle -1 points0 points ago

The internet is a form of immortality. It's like having children. When you post something that gets approval it gives you the sense of meaning whether it is real or not.

[–]verkon 4 points5 points ago

Due to underwater not being a natural habitat for black people, I started searching for penises.
When penises were not found, I broadened my search for other stuff.
I then turned my focus to the fish, which has markings on his body spelling out fuck. Cleaver, but not WTF.

In conclusion, it did not make me go "WTF", but it did get a single "hah". Perhaps /r/funny would be a better place.
All the best,

[–]rachawakka 5 points6 points ago

I think you meant to post this in r/stupidbullshitthatdoesntbelonginwtf

[–]AlwaysSarcasm 1 point2 points ago

HEY GUYS LOOK AT THIS FUNNY PHOTOSHOPPED PICTURE I FOUND ON THE INTERNET. WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!

[–]Ingrathis 1 point2 points ago

Okay, I swear I see a fish inside another fish. Does anyone else?

[–]uaoleksiy 0 points1 point ago

[–]Bobbycoxtat 1 point2 points ago

See what? The bad photoshop? Who up votes this horseshit?

[–]MrUndisclosed 1 point2 points ago

I can never find these without looking at the comments

[–]FrankyJFuckwit 1 point2 points ago

Couldn't find the black guy in the background.

[–]ramzyabidi 1 point2 points ago

[–]superdude097 0 points1 point ago

How is this WTF-worthy? Seems like it belongs in /r/funny or /r/pics to me.

[–]BigJohnful 3 points4 points ago

Been staring at this photo for an hour, still haven't seen a black person.

[–]sevlemeth -1 points0 points ago

The other side of the fish says "OP."

Because that's how I feel about this.

I can tell by the pixels, and all that jazz.

[–]OprahsAWeiner 0 points1 point ago

[–]dirtynicker 0 points1 point ago

A girl called me 'fuckface' in junior high. I sympathize with this fish.

[–]Godhand_Phemto 0 points1 point ago

I thought it was that rock formation at the top of a picture that looks like a decomposing skull from the nose up. Didn't even look at the fish.

[–]AlexandriaDub 0 points1 point ago

Lmaooooo

[–]Dunkin11 0 points1 point ago

I thought it was the one like strand of anemone that looked like a penis...

[–]leviirish 0 points1 point ago

So no one sees the penis sticking out of the plant?

[–]mNtgomery 0 points1 point ago

WHERE IS THE PENIS?

[–]Mattsinger 0 points1 point ago

After looking in the comments, i really cant believe this many people couldnt find it.

[–]GrandmasterPotato 0 points1 point ago

First thing I saw was the purple skull coral

[–]dealreal 0 points1 point ago

Did not see Fuck. I thought it looked like a clown fish swimming backwards.

[–]Fender6187 0 points1 point ago

Ha, at first I thought this was posted because one of the arms of the sea anemone looked like a baby dick. Total missed the 'fuck'.

[–]LUV2ChUM 0 points1 point ago

I see a mini whale spitting out his cereal.

[–]crustywankstain 0 points1 point ago

I really hope it isn't photoshopped!

[–]reddit_hates_freedom -4 points-3 points ago

Please avoid using the term “photoshop” as a verb, meaning any kind of photo manipulation or image editing in general. Photoshop is just the name of one particular image editing program, which should be avoided since it is proprietary. There are plenty of free programs for editing images, such as the GIMP.

[–]EnglishPhoenix 1 point2 points ago

You're right. We should also stop using "google" as a verb, because there's a million different search engines.

Calm down, buddy.

[–]crustywankstain 1 point2 points ago

I simply used the term photoshop to quickly give people the impression the image may have been manipulated.

[–]f_that_crap 0 points1 point ago

f that crap

[–]Mike-g 0 points1 point ago

Ladies and gentlemen I give you, Photoshop.

[–]zachavid 0 points1 point ago

Everyone else saw fuck first. I saw a skull shape in the background.

[–]gizram84 0 points1 point ago

I thought it was because it looks like PACMAN eating the tail and I thought, cool, good one.. but then I read the comments and realized the fish said fuck.

[–]Tyler_Anderson -1 points0 points ago

I know I'm on reddit too much when I immediately look at the anemone and say, "Pshhh....that doesn't look like Goatse.cx"

[–]bumreaper -1 points0 points ago

i couldnt see it until i squinted my eyes. and saw what was written on the fish... i was really looking for a dick tho..
