This is actually really cute.

After playing Slender....shudder

[–]8BITBRUISER 29 points30 points ago

Okay... is there a Slender game???

[–]georgebullis 23 points24 points ago

Yes, it is called Slender. It's free, too!

[–]8BITBRUISER 23 points24 points ago

...good?

[–]georgebullis 19 points20 points ago

I'm confused. You asked if there is a slender game, I said yes and that it's free. Are you asking now if the game is good, or have I missed something?

If my guess is right I can't tell you, I get too freaked out playing scary games.

[–]8BITBRUISER 17 points18 points ago

Is it good?? (Sorry for the weak phrasing)

[–]georgebullis 15 points16 points ago

I haven't played on account of I am a coward.

[–]Wildtails 17 points18 points ago

Have played, don't play it, you won't sleep.

[–]sylverphoenix 2 points3 points ago

I've downloaded it, it's pretty scary if you let it get to you. The game itself is simple, but what makes it hard is that mix of fear and the dark environment you're surrounded in. Look up some gameplay videos on YouTube to see if you'd like it :)

[–]pieguyfry22 2 points3 points ago

CAN EVERYONE JUST SHUT UP AND LINK THE DAMN GAME ALREADY? I'm lazy

[–]Sliothar 2 points3 points ago

I've played it, but it wasn't too scary after I realized the biggest rule to the game:

FOR GOD'S SAKE NEVER LOOK BEHIND YOU.

That, and just keep walking. Or running, if you hear His static noise.

[–]MorningKnight 5 points6 points ago

Its pretty awesome.

Ninja edit: Spelling

[–]ghostlikemike 1 point2 points ago

It's pretty good, but the model on slenderm'n is bad.

[–]Captain_LargePoop 0 points1 point ago

Its well made for what it is, I didn't find it to be scary but its worth playing!

[–]Iamdarb 0 points1 point ago

You go around picking up manuscripts. About 8. Eventually after the 1st or 2nd page you become aware that slender man is following you. If you look at him too ling game over so quick glance. Also you cant run long in the game and your flashlight doesnt work forever. Scary game.

[–]xBlinkedx -5 points-4 points ago

It's basically jump-scare the game xD I'm pretty sure some guy just threw it together in Unity, but if jump-scares get you, then this game will scare the fuck out of you.

EDIT: And again I get downvotes for no fucking reason, god people on Reddit are such fucktards.

[–]xLuMisx 1 point2 points ago

So you found all 8 pages?

[–]georgebullis 4 points5 points ago

No sir, I booted that up, got two, saw the man in question and decided I'd go outside for a while. I am not a brave man.

[–]Grimsonite 10 points11 points ago

Ok i finished amnesia without rage quitting but this effing game is just impossible.

Who are we playing anyways? a 300 pound chick? She gets exhausted in a mere second. ಠ_ಠ

[–]xLuMisx 1 point2 points ago

Don't worry, we're here for you.

[–]Perturbed_Spartan 1 point2 points ago

i was watching my roommate play. not gonna lie. i screamed a couple times.

[–]DaftDweller 0 points1 point ago

You go around a woods trying to collect notes that someone made talking about the Slenderman. After you get the first one you start to see him and he kills you if you stare for too long

[–]Stomo 3 points4 points ago

Yes. You run away from slenderman. Might sound simple, but just play it.

[–]Armadylspark 4 points5 points ago

One does not simply escape the slenderman...

[–]Stomo 0 points1 point ago

I never said you got away.

[–]Armadylspark 0 points1 point ago

That's all right. This isn't really me. This is simply a bot to confuse you while I burn down your house with combustible lemons.

[–]flash19950 0 points1 point ago

Link to the game please?

[–]EM12 0 points1 point ago

ಠoಠ

[–]FarmFreshDX 30 points31 points ago

My favorite Minecraft art. I want this as a painting in the game. The pun just works way too well and I love anything related to Slender Man (even my skin in game is Slender Man) or Endermen.

[–]Avengera 7 points8 points ago

My skin is also slenderman! I have no face, and people seem to think it's an error! Haha...

[–]halpo 2 points3 points ago

Same with my skin. I like to follow people by running toward them when they aren't looking.

[–]trulyElse 9 points10 points ago

... The pun works because the Enderman is named after the Slender Man.

[–]lackingsaint 3 points4 points ago

That has nothing to do with the pun, the pun is Minors/Miners.

[–]trulyElse 1 point2 points ago

Sorry. Brain fart.

[–]pyrosshade 50 points51 points ago

Just seeing them together TALKING is funny, i didn't quite take the time to think about what they are saying though.

[–]GenericOnlineName 37 points38 points ago

I'd think it'd be more like gargles and very intense static.

[–]Akiba89 44 points45 points ago

Naturally, this is a translation. Endermen and Slendermen are known to speak in nightmare

[–]pyrosshade 8 points9 points ago

This is the translation edit. The actual is too large for us to read.

[–]werdna314 1 point2 points ago

Wouldn't they just use ASL?

[–]buster2Xk 21 points22 points ago

21/m/the end

[–]venicello -2 points-1 points ago

American Sign Language....?

[–]pieguyfry22 0 points1 point ago

we know. he was making wordplay on the acronym "ASL".

Also, what's up with the question mark? What are you unsure about?

[–]venicello 0 points1 point ago

Phase one complete. Now, while they are confused and annoyed, we take the cats hostage.

Soon, the Internet will be mine!

[–]Midda 56 points57 points ago

Tender and chewy? This does not sense.

[–]theroflwaffle 14 points15 points ago

Yeah that ruined the comic for me

[–]Apollyna 1 point2 points ago

I'm not a steak person by any means, but whenever I try someone's "really good steak" it's usually soft and chewy. Not like jerky, where you have to gnaw it apart, but like... squishy chewy.

[–]space_boat 17 points18 points ago

Jerky is fucking chewy. Good steaks are not.

[–]barfobulator 7 points8 points ago

Maybe carnivores from another dimension prefer their meat differently than you do.

[–]ravenouscraving 0 points1 point ago

Maybe carnivores from another dimension have no damned idea what age of majority is.

I mean, if we're going to be picky about it... then there ya go.

[–]space_boat -3 points-2 points ago

You've probably never had a good steak.

[–]barfobulator 2 points3 points ago

I like to think I've had at least one good steak. In particular, one certain beef tenderloin, expertly seasoned and cooked to not a second more than medium rare, of which every bite tasted like a full meal of meat, potatoes, and greens. A steak I should be so lucky to ever taste again.

But that is not really relevant here.

[–]Captain_LargePoop 4 points5 points ago

I don't even eat steak why am I upvoting

[–]Ceejae 1 point2 points ago

Haha I was thinking that this irony was going to be the centrepiece of the entire joke, but nope. I guess the author just isn't aware that those are used as polar opposite words when describing steak.

[–]Trotrot 0 points1 point ago

think of gum. it's soft, but very chewy. that's what good meat is like. it's not tough or hard, but it doesn't just fall apart after 2 bites, it has some texture.

[–]Midda 0 points1 point ago

Gum is considered "chewy" because no matter how much you chew it, it stays in tact.

[–]ThatGuy773 23 points24 points ago

Damnit, just as I think I got Slenderman constantly stalking me out of my head, he's everywhere.

[–]StepOfDub 10 points11 points ago

It's a sign.

[–]pink_play-doh 12 points13 points ago

It's no accident. He's everywhere. He's following you. He sees you. Please don't turn around now.

[–]Jeroknite 11 points12 points ago

You are all bastards.

[–]mchief 3 points4 points ago

Seriously, fuck them

[–]shark_vagina 0 points1 point ago

There's nothing behind me but a wall. Nice job scaring me, pink_play-doh.

[–]pink_play-doh 1 point2 points ago

Are you sure there is not a crack in your subconscious mind that Slenderman can slip into?

[–]EgXPlayer 12 points13 points ago

Look behind you.

[–]buster2Xk 2 points3 points ago

Hey, fuck you :)

[–]EgXPlayer 2 points3 points ago

Eh..ok?

[–]buster2Xk 0 points1 point ago

Paranoia, man D:

[–]Armadylspark 0 points1 point ago

It's not paranoia if they really ARE after you!

[–]EgXPlayer 1 point2 points ago

He is watching you all the time :3

[–]buster2Xk 1 point2 points ago

So he's just like me, except he watches me instead of you.

[–]mikeet9 1 point2 points ago

Just because I'm paranoid doesn't mean I'm not being followed...

[–]jWalkerFTW 2 points3 points ago

Look up seedeater. I'm not joking when I say after 2 years, that thing still fucking haunts my mind

[–]Epicon3 2 points3 points ago

Just be glad you don't read Sutter Cane.

[–]jWalkerFTW 1 point2 points ago

Damn you! I don't wanna read it, but I would appreciate it if you told me what it is

[–]Epicon3 0 points1 point ago

Watch the movie called, "In the mouth of madness.", by John Carpenter. Yes, THE John Carpenter. Starring Sam Neill.

You'll understand. You'll never sleep again with the lights out, but you will understand. (Insert evil inside joke laugh here)

[–]jWalkerFTW 1 point2 points ago

No, damnit! you're ruining my good time!

[–]Epicon3 1 point2 points ago

Ok, so I'll try to paraphrase without spoiling.

Imagine Sutter Cane is actually Stephen King.

Now, Imagine everything that Stephen King writes about actually being truth.

And finally; Imagine yourself as a reporter given the case of tracking down this mysterious Stephen King bastard who is writing crazy shit that is making the people who read his books go completely bonkers.

and then.. it begins.

[–]jWalkerFTW 2 points3 points ago

So Alan Wake?

[–]Epicon3 1 point2 points ago

Not exactly.

I took the time to find this for you. It serves as a good "Teaser Trailer" for the movie.

Just a taste of the insanity. .^ Cheers!

[–]jWalkerFTW 1 point2 points ago

Thank you!

[–]jWalkerFTW 1 point2 points ago

Wait, that wasn't scary at all...

[–]Hypnopomp 1 point2 points ago

That's positively Lovecraftian!

I must watch, and thus risk my sanity, of course.

[–]StepOfDub 1 point2 points ago

I looked it up and a related search was something called the "6-Legged Rape Centaur".

[–]Avengera 5 points6 points ago

Silly OP, he should know slendy's tie is red... Pretty neat comic though, I honestly couldn't have done better.

[–]Akiba89 10 points11 points ago

O.O you're on a nickname basis with him?

[–]kiaha 0 points1 point ago

Once you get to know him he's actually an alright guy

[–]TheGoodRobot 6 points7 points ago

OP did not make this, for the record.

[–]Eal12333 0 points1 point ago

Since when is his tie red?

[–]kds15 4 points5 points ago

Since always, you didn't know? The other day he asked me if he should try a different one, but I was like, "Naw brah, red tie is more scary"

[–]Eal12333 0 points1 point ago

I've always thought his tie was black, i even looked up his mythology when i first heard of him. Never seen him in a red tie

[–]mikeet9 0 points1 point ago

I've seen the red tie but not too often. I think it's because most of the Slenderman pics are in black and white.

[–]Eal12333 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, that makes sence

[–]Pandarararara 43 points44 points ago

[–]Chewbaca43vr 3 points4 points ago

[–]imakitty 8 points9 points ago

Quick tip,

People read Left -> Right Top -> Bottom. As such most will read

This meat is so tender and Chewy

-- Minors

I thought you said we were having miners tonight.

Placement of speech balloons does matter

[–]TheGoodRobot 1 point2 points ago

Nah dude, it's got the little connecty bar thing.

[–]buster2Xk 1 point2 points ago

They're still separate bubbles... I thought the rule was that you had to read the bubbles top to bottom, and the connecty things don't make them a single phrase (?) but show that there's two without having two bubbles. And there's usually only one bubble per character.

That's how I'd do it anyway.

[–]Nick2the4reaper7 16 points17 points ago

I posted this to the Slenderman subreddit a month ago... Now I understand the feeling of hating reposts....

Mine

[–]letreepuncher 7 points8 points ago

That's cool, I totally read that subreddit.

[–]MedicInDisquise 1 point2 points ago

Fuck, do us a favor and never post a link to it ever again.

[–]Armadylspark 2 points3 points ago

Indeed. For if a link is blue, it must be clicked.

[–]HyperShadic9189 2 points3 points ago

Slendy has no mouth, though. how does he eat?

[–]StepOfDub 6 points7 points ago

He rubs it on himself and absorbs it through his skin.

[–]Photonchamber 1 point2 points ago

[–]Zombi3ToasT 1 point2 points ago

I see what you did there. Slender cant because he has no eyes though

[–]joshA11 1 point2 points ago

I always used to think endermen were based off slender man.

[–]Mr_Old_Sky 13 points14 points ago

They are based off Slenderman and Weeping Angels (I think that's what they're called)

[–]filosuhfee -1 points0 points ago

I think you're thinking of the Silence. These guys. Although they do seem very similar to Weeping Angels, too.

Edit: I have no idea what I meant here. The Slenderman just look a little like the Silence and react to being looked at, that's all I was going on. Damn you sleep deprivation.

[–]Ironically_Hipster 3 points4 points ago

Hey, you accidentally linked to a picture of blank space. Heads up, might want to fix that.

[–]Hackey_Sack 1 point2 points ago

...They're not based off the Silence.

[–]mikeet9 0 points1 point ago

Correct, the silence are based upon the Slenderman. The Enderman isn't based upon Slenderman but is definitely named after him, due to similar powers and vaguely similar appearance.

[–]zvinny1 3 points4 points ago

Bam evidence!

[–]DontAsk4470 0 points1 point ago

The silence is more based on "The Scream".

[–]crowey 0 points1 point ago

nah, it's weeping angels, they don't move while you're looking at them and when you look away they get you.

[–]thestickystickman 0 points1 point ago

The silence came months after endermen...

[–]ZenDragon 13 points14 points ago

They are. Notch even said they were named after Slenderman. I think upon seeing a screenshot of the yet unnamed mob somebody suggested "slendermen" and he changed it slightly.

Edit: I found the original discussion. It in fact happened on reddit. http://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/j09ma/notch_posts_images_of_new_mob/c282dzr

[–]charlestheblack 3 points4 points ago

It's also kind of funny how that notion led to the idea of The End and the Enderdragon. So in a way, that comment influenced a pretty big part of the game.

[–]ZenDragon 1 point2 points ago

I dunno. Apparently he had the basic idea for The End before the enderman was revealed. So it might have been a coincidence that someone suggested the name "endermen", or he planned all that stuff out without settling on any names first.

[–]charlestheblack 5 points6 points ago

Well it was certainly convenient how all the naming played together. "The End" is sort of a double entendre what with it being the actual climax so to speak.

[–]buster2Xk 0 points1 point ago

This sort of thing happens all the time with creative arts (game design included). Sometimes it's accidental, sometimes intentional, and sometimes a bit of both. This case is probably a bit of both, the name Enderman being accidental, then "The End" being kind of an intentional double entendre. Though "The End" was originally what Notch joked he'd call the Farlands when people called the Endermen Farlanders... I guess people just have a way of working meanings and stuff into things they create.

[–]Nixdaboss -1 points0 points ago

Yes, and actually the definition of slender man is a dark lanky figure who is able to teleport.

[–]BACONINGOFTEHNYANS 1 point2 points ago

[–]finalfrog 0 points1 point ago

How are they eating? Neither of them have mouths.

[–]thestickystickman 0 points1 point ago

Endermen have mouths. They are the only mob that has on that isn't just a texture.

[–]finalfrog 1 point2 points ago

Right you are. I haven't played in too long...

[–]ravenouscraving 0 points1 point ago

Because things that make us food know what "age of majority" is.

[–]RaindropPebble 0 points1 point ago
