Snake is getting a little cocky with his box disguise these days.

[–]Pigeon_Logic 15 points16 points ago

In Peacewalker multiplayer you can get a cardboard box tank.

This is him being sensible.

"It's just a box."

Still gets the job done though, right?

[–]echoechoech0 0 points1 point ago

[–]SixgunSaint 67 points68 points ago

I don't know, seem like an aggressive asshole to me.

[–]wtf_isgoingonhere 362 points363 points ago

actually I get pretty pissed when I see this gif. the guy is minding his own business, gets pushed (technically physically assaulting someone) and when the guy pushes back with just enough force to give himself some personal space, he gets knocked to the ground pretty hard. I've seen this youtube video and a lot of the pranks are funny, but in this one the guy in the box is an asshole.

[–]bigmeetchlarryhoover 498 points499 points ago

He's a dick in a box

[–]partyonmybloc 49 points50 points ago

[–]TheGhostofWoodyAllen 10 points11 points ago

Whoa. Reposted with the same grammatically incorrect title even. If you didn't learn it from school, learn it here on Reddit: history repeats itself.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Just curious, what's grammatically incorrect about the title?

[–]TheGhostofWoodyAllen 0 points1 point ago

Well, maybe it is not technically "incorrect," but it has been written as "cannot" or contracted to "can't" for like 300 years.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

Well in Canada we use "can not" most of the time rather than "cannot". Cannot is more of an American thing

[–]TheGhostofWoodyAllen 0 points1 point ago

It's not really an American thing, it seems. Even the OED says "cannot" is the preferred way of writing it. Here's a little article I found on it. Maybe "can not" is a Canadian thing.

[–]my_bitches_love_me 0 points1 point ago

I came up organically.

[–]idma 11 points12 points ago

Yeah. What about the train tracks nearby. Safety first, kids

[–]tedbohannon 9 points10 points ago

Since we're getting technical, in most jurisdictions it's battery (with assault as a lesser included offense).

[–]Offensive_Statement 9 points10 points ago

I love it when people repost this fucking gif. I just tag them as douchebag and walk away.

[–]Droppin_Bombs 28 points29 points ago

Really? I actually get pretty pissed when I see this gif too... for the 6th time in 3 months.

[–]ohmygodbees -3 points-2 points ago

first time for me!

[–]Tatt-Brah 7 points8 points ago

ya he has limited visibility in that box, really deserves an asskicking and it would be easy

[–]simplelogic2 6 points7 points ago

ever notice that some people are wired to laugh hysterically when people are hurt or being assholes? don't get it, personally

[–]keveready 8 points9 points ago

Quick, someone kick this guy in the nuts. He's lost his sense of humor!

[–]simplelogic2 1 point2 points ago

did you like the "three stooges" growing up?

I tried - just couldn't learn to appreciate

someone tell me the score... how many of us are three stooges people vs not?

[–]Batcaptain 1 point2 points ago

This is going to sound like splitting hairs and I apologize, but I personally laugh more at the idea of something than the actual act. I don't like what happened in that gif, but the idea of someone in a box violently knocking someone over is hilarious to me, and this gif plays out that idea.

I don't want anyone to do things like this, but if it does happen, it can be hilarious to me.

[–]chocolate_vomiter 2 points3 points ago

I know you're just being honest, but honestly that is a sentiment to eradicate from yourself. You'll be a better person for it.

[–]Batcaptain 0 points1 point ago

I don't think there's anything wrong with finding the idea of a man in a box knocking over a man not in a box funny. That it actually happened isn't good, but the idea it's playing out is very safe comedy.

[–]simplelogic2 0 points1 point ago

I get it... don't resent you for it, but it would be interesting to understand the factors that make you laugh at human suffering and others not as much... look, i'm not judging you just want to understand the cause and effect... maybe for someone's grad thesis they can look at these patterns - probably already been done a hundred times

giving you a +1 for replying

[–]NightlyNews 1 point2 points ago

I wouldn't call getting knocked down human suffering. That's probably the big divide between people who think this is funny and those who don't.

I enjoy being physical and while I am not stupid enough to do this to strangers it is hilarious to do to friends with no real harm done. Is falling on your ass pleasant, no, but it probably didn't give him PTSD either.

[–]Batcaptain 0 points1 point ago

It's not so much that people are getting hurt (Although this guy only got pushed down, it isn't on the same level as a stabbing or shooting, which of course wouldn't be funny), it's that they're getting hurt in such a ludicrous way.

Thanks for not being a dick about it. It is definitely an interesting kind of distinction, or at least I think it is.

[–]BOX_RIGHTS 2 points3 points ago

That's bullshit! The box, who was minding his own business was just hanging out in his hometown. He then saw a local come by, so he gave him a very light, playful nudge. Barely brushed him. Then the guy outside the box pushed back like he was in a warzone. That racist pig just let the innocent box have it. This infuriated the box, who responded with necessary force.

BOX POWER

[–]burkey0307 7 points8 points ago

One day we will live in a world where humans and boxes can co-exist.

[–]shamefaced3773 1 point2 points ago

Don't know why you got downvoted. I laughed.

[–]biurb 0 points1 point ago

I think it's fucking hilarious just because there's no way he could do anything about it, with a human coming in to push you, you have a chance to see it coming and react, with a dude in a box all you see is the box start shifting at the last second and that could mean ANYTHING, so it catches you completely off balance

and yes, I'd probably find it hilarious if it happened to me too but only if I was as high then as I am now

[–]Minotaur_in_house 5 points6 points ago

In reverse. It's kinda like the school bully syndrome. You mess with someone for a laugh, and you know he's not going to fight back and just walk away. These pranksters are used to that. Screwing with people who aren't going to fight back. It's free run and maybe you can justify it saying it's just a prank, no harm. I could normally buy that.

But this guy shoved back, and that should have been the end of it. The pranksters should have stopped and walked away, instead they basically attack a guy who was just out for a smoke.

That's no longer a prank. That's actively bullying or aggravating.

You might be able to be unbothered, but for me? If I'm out and about town, I just want to be left alone and go on with my day. Not get harassed by boxes and fake spiders for someones cheap giggle. It's not a lot, but being harassed like that would make me angry and probably ruin whatever I was doing until I did forget it.

[–]therumbox 13 points14 points ago

Yeah, except you have no idea what issues the guy getting pushed might have. He could have a horrible back and that hit could take him about for a week. Stuff like that.

He might even have bone-itis.

[–]Asassinsneed -3 points-2 points ago

He literally bumped into him. Do you shove people away when they bump into you? I have no idea why so many people upvoted you.

Edit: Probably because America

"in this one the guy in the box is an asshole."

"We should ban all mascots/box figures/furries"

I don't know if your post was a bad joke, a bad troll, or just logically inconsistent.

[–]sheerheartattack 1 point2 points ago

That you are prohibited by law from committing assault and battery does not mean that you are banned...

[–]Yeffers 36 points37 points ago

My initial reaction was to laugh, and then you realise how much of a douche bag the guy in the box is, and it makes the whole thing less amusing.

[–]cpnHindsight 10 points11 points ago

Don't worry, you'll get the last laugh.

[–]new-socks 39 points40 points ago

I couldn't even start laughing.

[–]LowSociety 28 points29 points ago

[–]Nexxxeh 31 points32 points ago

Yeah, the guy's a douchebag. The bit where the other box arrives behind the mall cop was pretty damn funny, and the first bit with the elevator where he makes a loud noise and jumps at the unsuspecting elevatee was good. The rest was just mean douchebaggery.

[–]Guard01 4 points5 points ago

Part two is even funnier. My sides. Laughing. So. Hard.

[–]AriBBCP -2 points-1 points ago

i like how reddit isn't okay with people wear boxes being d-bags but it's hilarious when they get abused

you guys take karma way too seriously

[–]WaffleSports 0 points1 point ago

He wanted to do real life trolling, he can enjoy real life down voting. He was running into a baby stroller too. A joke is a joke for only so long and if you run into me it's about to become unfunny.

[–]AriBBCP 0 points1 point ago

you need to calm down

I didn't eat breakfast yet, that was hunger talking =(

[–]WhyAmINotStudying 2 points3 points ago

Although I still find a great deal of douchebaggery, the very end was unexpected.

[–]mastr_slik 0 points1 point ago

some people just want to see the world burn...

[–]Nexxxeh -1 points0 points ago

Holy shit. It wasn't great until the very end and then BAM. What a douchebag but the ending with the sound effect... Fuck. I'm actually crying the laughter.

[–]mastr_slik 1 point2 points ago

let me lick your tears

[–]Nexxxeh 0 points1 point ago

Creepy but hot. Sure. Guy or Girl?

Not even funny this guy is just a complete fuckin faggot! fuck him and his piece of shit wannabe jackass youtube channel.

You know, I thought that this gif had been showing up with a practically identical title every month. Turns out it's more like every week. Jesus.

[–]TheGhostofWoodyAllen -1 points0 points ago

It's like a booster shot of lulz, right? ...right?

[–]Upvote_and_STFU -3 points-2 points ago

[–]noodles2go[!] 13 points14 points ago

This isn't even remotely funny to me... now if the guy in the box got stabbed, I'd be rolling over with laughter. Why do we encourage assholes like this?

[–]Timid_Pimp 2 points3 points ago

I don't know but a lot of reddit eats this shit up. Must be the same people that find Rémi Gaillard's videos hilarious.

[–]otheraccountisdead 0 points1 point ago

To be fair, Gaillard is funny when he's not acting like an asshole...

[–]septimus379 43 points44 points ago

Then keep laughing, but don't repost!!!! EVER!!!!!!

[–]Thepunk28 3 points4 points ago

Yeah that's just lazy.

[–]Galifreyan2012 6 points7 points ago

The blow was above the belt. It's a legal boxing hit.

[–]Mordri 12 points13 points ago

It's just some dick in a box.

[–]spamandramen 1 point2 points ago

hoping to see someone knock these clowns out.

[–]imnofake 1 point2 points ago

You know you have completely no creativity when you take the title from the original post.

[–]Digberto 1 point2 points ago

Saw this video and thought the guy in the box was just an asshole. Saw the youtube video and discovered it was somebody I went to high school with... he was an ass then as well. Some things never change.

[–]14u2c 3 points4 points ago

This gets reposed at least once per week.

[–]lily1346 1 point2 points ago

It must be well rested, then.

[–]Uncle_Sammy 2 points3 points ago

At first I thought that was a port-a-potty.

[–]Captain_SCHWING 0 points1 point ago

I now know what I'm going to do today.

[–]AutumnEmber 1 point2 points ago

Am I just emotionless? I haven't actually laughed at r/funny in a very long time and people keep saying "I lol'd way too hard". It was somewhat amusing but I didn't even smile at this.

[–]nucleus_von_fission 1 point2 points ago

No, there was nothing funny. A manufactured encounter that cut way into the guy's right to privacy & sanctity of person.

[–]Chaquator 1 point2 points ago

Reddit can't stop reposting this.

Whenever I see a "Can't Stop Laughing At This" or an "I Laughed At This Way Too Hard" I know it's not gonna be funny...yet I click on them every time.

[–]jokes_on_you 0 points1 point ago

It goes the other way too. Since the person in the box has no peripheral vision it makes them a very easy target. Come at them from the side or from behind and they'll have no idea what hit them.

[–]cthulhubert 0 points1 point ago

I don't think I hate reposts as much as other Redditors.

But when it's not only a repost, but it uses the exact same title, and the link is to some terrible smarmy asshat that needs a serious curbstomping?

Then, then I hate you.
