You get an upvote because Doctor Who/David Tennant is involved.

[–]Space-Dementia 67 points68 points ago

[–]Vulcans_Hammer 0 points1 point ago

So I'm not the only one. Good to know

[–]reluctant-upvote[S] 1 point2 points ago

That's like getting Valentine's cards in fifth grade

[–]shellbullet17 7 points8 points ago

[–]imjustmichelle 14 points15 points ago

upvote ALL the tennant

[–]misshakalaka 0 points1 point ago

upvote for tennant and cause MY name's michelle too! haha :D

[–]imjustmichelle 1 point2 points ago

[–]phanfare 1 point2 points ago

He's laughing because the parallel universe Tylers named thier dog Rose in this one right???

[–]joeromag 0 points1 point ago

Yea, he pauses for a second after they call for the dog, then he can't stop himself from laughing.

[–]gyro12 2 points3 points ago

I really need to my box set of the first four seasons to get here. WHY DO YOU BRITISH PEOPLE HAVE TO TAKE SO LONG TO MAIL THINGS TO THE STATES?

Also, anyone know how to make my laptop play British region DVDs? Kinda need to do that so I can watch the stuff in the box set.

[–]Wibbles 1 point2 points ago

Because ocean. I wasn't aware laptops were region locked either, won't something like VLC run it fine or does the operating system itself scream about it?

[–]gyro12 0 points1 point ago

Maybe? I haven't tried it before, but I'll have to install VLC and give it a shot!

And yes, considering the large body of water in the way, it's actually getting here pretty fast. The real tragedy is that buying the seasons on the US Amazon costs so much more than buying them on the UK Amazon.

[–]xebo 10 points11 points ago

Wow that's obscenely cute

[–]billiexjeen 59 points60 points ago

That is what my boyfriend would do when I asked him to watch Doctor Who...

He's no longer my boyfriend.

[–]qataridestroyer 20 points21 points ago

good move

[–]BlackLiteAttack 32 points33 points ago

Yes, taking jokes seriously will really improve your reddit experience.

[–]joeromag 0 points1 point ago

I wonder why he italicized that sentence, probably to make himself sound smarter. A lot like talking louder to sound smarter.

[–]AScholarlyGentleman 25 points26 points ago

Upvote for David Tennant.

[–]bakuretsu 11 points12 points ago

I have to give the upvote for Doctor Who in general, but I liked Christopher Eccleston a lot. Maybe more than Tennant.

[–]lolroflqwerty 3 points4 points ago

I loved them both. I just started season 5 so I still don't know about Smith, but he seems pretty cool.

[–]CoolBowtie 9 points10 points ago

He is. I prefer Tennant, but Smith is pretty great. I find that Tennant has a little more depth, simply because the 10th Doctor is a bit darker than the 11th.

[–]MrConfucius 0 points1 point ago

I remember I dawned on how dark he was when he just stood on the steps, watching the Rachnoss' children drown.

[–]dancesir 6 points7 points ago

Likewise. I felt he was more doctoresque. Tennant always seemed like more of a boyfriend (and obviously he was sort of supposed to).

[–]bakuretsu 10 points11 points ago

I liken Eccleston's interpretation of The Doctor to Gene Wilder's interpretation of Willy Wonka. Somewhat unpredictable and enthusiastically nonchalant about everything.

[–]Scuttlebuttz93 1 point2 points ago

I definitely preferred Eccleston over any other doctor. He is the awesome sauce

[–]rebelpride 0 points1 point ago

Am i the only one that likes Matt Smith more than Tennant? I felt like Tennant was too dramatic for the death of the Universe to hold his attention long enough to save it. It was like he'd rather save his companions than everything else. Great Doctor, but I didnt like him as much as the 9th and 11th

[–]AScholarlyGentleman 0 points1 point ago

Go ask r/doctorwho, I'm sure you'll find you're not nearly the only one to prefer 11 to 10.

[–]joeromag 1 point2 points ago

Although there are still a lot of tennant fan girls(and boys) over there unfortunately. I loved ten but everyone forgets that each doctor brings his own style with him and has up and downsides.

[–]Leafy_head 7 points8 points ago

I used to be bothered about shows like this and Dancing with the B-Listers, but then I realized. . . this is the female version of professional wrestling -- scripted, melodramatic, with the ending decided well in advance.

When you take a show as seriously as one would take pro wrestling, it becomes a little silly to hate it.

[–]RJLupin2 16 points17 points ago

That feel when Doctor Who related post in something other than /r/doctorwho is on the Front Page.

[–][deleted] 36 points37 points ago

I FUCKING LOVE THAT SHOW

2 hours of uninterrupted girlfriend free nag free video game time every single week. Fuck yes I love the batchelorette.

[–]pikchertaker 35 points36 points ago

As his girlfriend, I can attest to the fact that he really does love The Bachelorette.

[–][deleted] 13 points14 points ago

sigh

[–]Shamson -1 points0 points ago

Ooh. Irssi?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Indeed. What else am I supposed to do at work?

[–]Shamson 2 points3 points ago

Just saying. Fine choice in irc client. :D

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Multiplayer Notepad

[–]ryanbillya 3 points4 points ago

Upvote for showing me the light.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

Pass my wisdom along to others.

[–]rebelpride 1 point2 points ago

I was going to give you an upvote

but then I realized you werent saying you love Doctor Who

[–]reluctant-upvote[S] 2 points3 points ago

I agree. But she actually asked me before

[–]theangrymartian 0 points1 point ago

You love it until the idealizations it creates overwhelm her expectations in your relationship and well....there you have it.

[–]WorshippingForecast 4 points5 points ago

I want David Tennant's babies - even when he makes those faces.

I'll be in my bunk...

[–]nerdistheword1996 1 point2 points ago

Expecially when he makes those faces. Adorable.

[–]Backawayfromthecar 6 points7 points ago

I love you Doctor Who. I love you so much.

[–]bobbert182 2 points3 points ago

More like "Every time I read online that OP has a girlfriend."

[–]WannabeBrit 2 points3 points ago

I double checked to make sure I wasn't on r/doctorwho again..

[–]Teraka 2 points3 points ago

What episode is this from ?

[–]missachlys 5 points6 points ago

The gif? Rise of the Cybermen. They end up in another dimension where Rose doesn't exist and meet her mom who has a dog named Rose instead. The Doctor finds this hilarious, Rose...not so much.

[–]Teraka 0 points1 point ago

Oh right, thanks :)

[–]store_bought_hero 1 point2 points ago

This is more accurate when I get asked that: http://imgur.com/ruNeY

[–]shempmalone 1 point2 points ago

Watching The Bachelorette with your girlfriend is the best thing you can do to make her appreciate you more. By comparison, nearly anybody would look great compared to most of those guys.

[–]DrinkingCoconut 2 points3 points ago

This. My husband moreso just hears The Bachelorette while he plays his vita, but it is so fun when he chimes in when these desperado's profess their love through tears for a woman they met 2.5 weeks ago.

[–]Paulus81 0 points1 point ago

If there was a TV show besides American Idol that could make my ears bleed.

[–]jizzquiz 1 point2 points ago

As a woman I really don't get that. Why would she want you to watch it with her? Does she think you'll get brainwashed like her?

[–]schmorrell 1 point2 points ago

Expected Tracy Morgan no gif. This was better.

[–]doughiswhatigot 0 points1 point ago

every time the gif loops it's like he's checking to make sure she's still serious

[–]EPBJ 0 points1 point ago

The longer I look at this, the higher his eyebrow seems to be getting...

[–]DSTFU 0 points1 point ago

You barf invisible foods?

[–]Yellowbird00 0 points1 point ago

I didn't think that show was still on

[–]hiii -1 points0 points ago

Makes me sad. Why not jsut watch it with her to make her happy? You cant give her an hour a week? =(

[–]reluctant-upvote[S] 0 points1 point ago

Um more like two...and I give her plenty a week

[–]thehamburgerburgler 0 points1 point ago

Upvote for the doctor who gif

[–]hedbangr -1 points0 points ago

Show her the North Korea propaganda video.

[–]jurkajurka 1 point2 points ago

My wife turned it on and I didn't care, as I was busy on the computer. I was just about to finish up when the elimination rose ceremony started. I laughed the entire time and ruined it for her. The guys's faces were priceless.

[–]heartpuppiez 1 point2 points ago

when I asked, my bf said "does she get naked?" and I said "yes." and he said "...no she doesn't."

[–]vidiotsavant 0 points1 point ago

protip: get a girlfriend with better taste.

[–]Bimily 1 point2 points ago

I'm fairly certain you are NOT David Tennant.

[–]eisforenigma 0 points1 point ago

Obviously you should both be watching Doctor Who.

[–]CromStrongOnHisMtn -1 points0 points ago

I just don't understand this show. I understand The Bachelor - women like to fight over a man they see as desirable - but why would men fight with eachother for a woman? There are so many women out there. It doesn't make sense. Like the Olympic Gold Medal paradox - male gold medalists fuck lots of chicks, but female gold medalists do not, as they are not seen by men to be as desirable. Men look for hotness in women at a baser level - not fame or wealth or others validating their desirability. It doesn't mesh with my perception of how men and women value attractiveness.

[–]reluctant-upvote[S] 0 points1 point ago

Because it's fake

[–]relativeidiot31 0 points1 point ago

When I saw that episode, I kept rewinding that part...

[–]Jangan 0 points1 point ago

hahahahahahahaah i relate to this sooooo much. every week my girlfriend does! but it isnt the worst show.

[–]HIFW_GIFs_React_ 0 points1 point ago

[–]reluctant-upvote[S] 0 points1 point ago

Don't say it belongs there

[–]SaltFrog 0 points1 point ago

He will always be my favorite Doctor... I love you :(

[–]reluctant-upvote[S] 0 points1 point ago

glad I brought a laugh to everyone. Made the front page for about a second. Remember, just because u don't watch a show with your spouse, dont mean I don't care.

[–]J4Seriously 0 points1 point ago

You wish you looked like David Tennant

[–]chrisfinley98 0 points1 point ago

I thought he was gonna throw up, that a relief.

[–]Surfacetovolume 0 points1 point ago

I don't understand why you'd want someone to watch a show with you, that you like and they don't. I'd rather watch something with other people who enjoy it, or just alone.

Or maybe I am just whooshing.

[–]0y5132 0 points1 point ago

Good to see some whovians posting things, finally.

[–]TheOrangeIguana 0 points1 point ago

I think everyone involved in "The Bachelor/Bachelorette" should just have their homes foreclosed.

[–]atticus_finched 0 points1 point ago

1)you have a girlfriend 2)she wants to do things with you

/.: fuck off

[–]Ngiole -4 points-3 points ago

Hahaha your girlfriend wants you to spend time with her! More like Overly Attached Girlfriend, am I right guys? ... Guys?
