Sometimes people choose the thug life. And sometimes, the thug life chooses them.

Raw footage of riots in England.

[–]TzarJack 4 points5 points ago

Your actually right, the guy did this during a time of rioting

[–]mikey_croatia 4 points5 points ago

I know. I posted that gif months ago, while the riots were on.
Also, you're*

[–]soulBit 1 point2 points ago

Careful, you might start one

[–]TzarJack 3 points4 points ago

Best with sound. Also for context this was during the London Riots, so named because they were Riots not entirely within in the city of London.

REPOST THE CONTENT! REPOST IT SOO MUCH

[–]drooj78 -3 points-2 points ago

For all the people that complain about reposts... how, exactly, do you think a meme is created and spread? BY REPOSTS. EVERYWHERE.

[–]fah_cue 2 points3 points ago

a meme is created by crowdsourcing a joke and expanding upon it through minor changes.
this is just a gif that gets posted over and over again with no change.
it is a big difference.

[–]drooj78 2 points3 points ago

no, no, I said, "What is viral?"

[–]fah_cue 1 point2 points ago

This is your exact quote:
"For all the people that complain about reposts... how, exactly, do you think a meme is created and spread? BY REPOSTS. EVERYWHERE."

[–]drooj78 2 points3 points ago

Go up one post. Then up one more. It was in response to sandpaper's comment. "A meme is created by it becoming viral." And I said, "What is viral?"

[–]drooj78 2 points3 points ago

At any rate, idc if it's a repost. I think it's funny. Upvote :-)

[–]fah_cue 2 points3 points ago

true. it doesn't matter in the long run.
but just check out the screenshot. http://i.imgur.com/puvyE.png

sandpaper replied to your comment and so was I. The comments were in two different portions of the thread and unrelated.
either way, upvotes for you. just for the hell of it.

[–]drooj78 -4 points-3 points ago

um... and what is 'viral?' That would be the phenomena that occurs when the item is seen everywhere on the net... through reposts on many different sites. >.> I've never seen this. I'm glad this person posted it. It's funny.

[–]Bigetto -1 points0 points ago

A repost does not specify that it can be found in on other sites. A repost is a link that has been posted on Reddit previously has been posted again, hence repost.

This .gif was posted on Reddit, in r/funny, with almost the exact title, TWO WEEKS AGO

[–]drooj78 0 points1 point ago

I still missed it; I'm glad for the repost. (Yeah, I can't be on reddit as frequently as some of you).

[–]DvorakAttack 0 points1 point ago

The choice is yours. Exile or death.

[–]adriennek 2 points3 points ago

Exile or death.

[–]KindaBatman 5 points6 points ago

Death? Alright, death by exile

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

Cake or Death?

[–]justhereforthefunny -1 points0 points ago

Death. Oh, wait I meant cake! I choose cake!

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points ago

Ahhhh you said cake death first!

[–]justhereforthefunny -1 points0 points ago

Oops, Excuse me. (long day at work)

I know that "I'm gonna downvote this! Repost!" doesn't get much love, and that's fine, but this needs to be said: STOP UPVOTING THIS FUCKING GIF. Even if you only spend one hour a week on reddit, you've already seen this before. Like, 50 times per month. Enough. This image has produced enough karma for karma whores. Let it die with dignity.

[–]MadManuel 1 point2 points ago

Oy. Here's the reason I up vote the occasional repost: I haven't seen the content yet.

As for Karma? You're raving about something that doesn't matter.

[–]edgar_jomfru -3 points-2 points ago

Right. But a lot of us have seen it. You're right; fuck karma. I just don't want to see this in the first hundred links again. Every fucking day. You want new content you haven't seen? Browse r/ new.

[–]therascalking13 -2 points-1 points ago

Why the fuck don't you browse r/new then? You're literally saying "I don't give a fuck about the other 15 million people on reddit, it should work like I want." You're kind of being a bitch.

[–]edgar_jomfru -1 points0 points ago

You're literally saying "I don't give a fuck about the other 15 million people on reddit, it should work like I want."

I'm not, but if I were, it would be honesty. No one gives a fuck about anyone else, not in this context. To wit:

You're kind of being a bitch.

Zero fucks given, stranger.

[–]MadManuel 0 points1 point ago

Ah.. Redditor for 2 months..

Makes total sense now..

In the beginning, I too banged on the Repost drum. Then you realize there is life outside of Reddit.

If you're really so adamant about purging reposts..

browse the front page's 'new' tab, and downvote the stuff you've already seen.

And as for the 'no one gives a fuck about anyone else' bit.. We're Redditors man.. We're better than that. How many thousands of posts have you seen about charity to one's fellow man? /r/RandomActsofPizza, dozens of subreddits devoted entirely to community support.

Hell, go to a Reddit meetup in your town or two.. I've spent more than one Thanksgiving with Redditors who invited me into their home with no more qualification than being a registered user..

[–]edgar_jomfru -1 points0 points ago

Nth account. I have much more exp than 2 months. I'm not that adamant; like other redditors, I just like running my mouth. I'm also pretty frank about that.

and as far as the spirit of community and charity on reddit... don't kid yourself. Yes, occasionally people are nice to each other, there's a karma rush, everyone references it... then just as quickly no one gives a shit again.

That's real life, holmes. I'm really happy you've had nice experiences with strangers, but results may vary. They've never been more joy than grief for me. Incidentally, I posted pics of my mom when she died, was generally ignored or downvoted, and I quit. Came back, decided to not care one way or the other about what people here say, and just allow my mouth to run as I pleased. So yeah. I'm glad redditors have been nice to you.

Whoever downvoted this: thanks for helping me prove my point! Guess redditors are helpful after all.

[–]digbus -1 points0 points ago

Wonder what's on reddit today - oh just reposts...

[–]LiteraryBoner -1 points0 points ago

Boy do I know that feeling.
