I really want a pair of sweatpants now. I can just imagine the public fun to be had.

The first gift my soon to be wife got me was a pair of Auburn sweatpants, she has regretted it every day since.

I swear, I am one of the few in Alabama who does't like football.

[–]wioneo 0 points1 point ago

I didn't know that not watching football was an option honestly. I think that the first thing that I was asked when I moved there at age...8? Was if I was an Auburn or Alabama fan.

[–]Flux129 0 points1 point ago

I moved here at age 6. I just don't watch it. Maybe it was because I never grew up early with it, but I just don't find it all that interesting.

[–]Mowgli87 0 points1 point ago

I never said anything about football. I played in highschool and liked watching it for years. I'm well over the football fanatic thing though. I moved on to race cars. :D

[–]brygy24 10 points11 points ago

Try sprinting up and down crowded city streets, preferably with bright, patterned sweatpants and screaming Dr. Seuss quotes of your choice. If you can deal with traffic, cops and a complete temporary loss of dignity its a once in a lifetime experience. This is of course coming from someone with no experience with it

[–]basketcase77 -1 points0 points ago

I really want a pair of sweatpants now. I can just imagine the pubic fun to be had. FTFY

The only thing that would be worse is if he moved in flashes of light. Like as if in a thunder storm at night. EDIT: And if it were reversed.

Thanks for the nostalgia, I stopped playing that game for like 3 years now. I got pretty good at making creatures too, even got featured on the front page of the website once.

[–]SOPA_NO 5 points6 points ago

Why did I save that to my gif library?

[–]Nightwing11 6 points7 points ago

I learned long ago not to question your subconscious while browsing Reddit.....someday, somehow, that gif will come in handy

[–]Andythefan 1 point2 points ago

now add a flash of lighting and have him appear right on the camera

Yeah, one in Fresno and one in Yosemite.

[–]MustBeNice[!] 7 points8 points ago

For anyone curious, Yosemite about a 50 minute drive from Fresno.

[–]Zhang5 6 points7 points ago

So close enough one could go "Fuck it, I'm bored. You remember that stupid thing we did last weekend as a prank? Lets go for a drive and do it again".

[–]Hypobasis 3 points4 points ago

I love how these are all grainy ass-videos.

[–]elusivewater 2 points3 points ago

The eerie music seems to get me more than the video itself towards the end.

[–]Pyro627 3 points4 points ago

I just muted it, and now I just want to know what that was.

Some sort of hoax, preferably.

[–]TheRoachOn12 2 points3 points ago

There was a show that did a bunch of things to try and debunk it, and they couldn't.

They have been spotted in other places also.

[–]kantorekB14 13 points14 points ago

EDIT Damnit... I just spent 8 minutes watching youtube videos of weird creatures and aliens.

[–]MustBeNice[!] 5 points6 points ago

Probably copied it, people do anything for karma

[–]MustBeNice[!] 1 point2 points ago

I know it's not real, but videos like this still manage to creep me out to no end.

Now I just really want to dress up like a giant stick and walk around neighborhoods at night.

[–]gigashadowwolf 0 points1 point ago

That was way to much production work for such a simple video. It was kinda cool though.

[–]lolslowking 0 points1 point ago

WHY MORE.

I need to take these warnings more seriously.

[–]cipher64 2 points3 points ago

I enter a dimly lit room and this guy walks towards me like that (without the reverse effect), I'll scream like a lil' girl.

This GIF took so long to move, that I thought it was a photo. I was actually startled when it moved.

Not gonna lie though, that's definitely some Men In Black worthy shit right there.

[–]finvek 4 points5 points ago

I used to wear my sweat pants like this when i didn't have clean shirts in the winter... nothing weird here moving along

[–]vuxa 3 points4 points ago

Can't wait to see this somehow used appropriately as a reaction gif somewhere

[–]biglee90 2 points3 points ago

Hey. That is a black kid in sweat pants. Mystery solved. You're welcome.

[–]CHAAAZZZZ 4 points5 points ago

[–]t_j_k 3 points4 points ago

It's a black guy in pajamas. Fuck it, I'm going to spacedicks. r/wtf is nothing.

Hitmonlee: The Kicking Pokemon. When in a hurry, its legs lengthen progressively. It runs smoothly with extra long, loping strides. (Red and blue version Pokedex info.)

[–]award07 4 points5 points ago

haha i did this once with sweatpants.. i was much younger

[–]damendred 16 points17 points ago

I did this daily when I was a kid. (the pants thing, not the being black thing, although I had a phase of that too)

[–]syscofresh 5 points6 points ago

Thank you for specifying. I was confused at first.

[–]award07 2 points3 points ago

it's pretty fucking fun..the pants thing..

[–]FHSlaughter 11 points12 points ago

I can't think of an accurate comment to describe this

[–]Poonjangles 5 points6 points ago

something about steve irwin and the two-legged, orange-bellied negro seems to fit, but I'm just not creative enough to think of it.

[–]MustBeNice[!] 1 point2 points ago

I'm just glad to see no racist comments. I know it's not r/videos, but still.

[–]Artisyn 0 points1 point ago

I don't want to sound racist, but it probably wouldn't be as scary if it were a white guy in orange pajamas.

[–]Imtheliontamer 3 points4 points ago

Well this really isn't wtf but on a contradictory note, I really want to freak some one out by spooking them in one of these.

[–]jonnyrotten7 -2 points-1 points ago

I hate doing this, but seriously, if you've been on Reddit for more than a week, you should know it's = it is, and its = possessive. For future reference.

[–]enderxeno 1 point2 points ago

Corrections should only be needed when communication is affected.. I'm pretty sure the majority of us understood what this person was trying to say without some 'correction'.

[–]syscofresh 4 points5 points ago

But then how will he assert his superior intellect?

[–]Melchoir 0 points1 point ago

Communication of meaning is not the only purpose of language. At its best, it's an art. On a baser level, people use language to judge each other. That's just a harsh reality that no amount of arguing on Reddit is going to change.

Politely offering corrections, like jonnyrotten7 did, is a service to both the OP and to readers who may not know the rule. Maybe it's not absolutely needed, but it's still a good thing.

[–]enderxeno 0 points1 point ago

No, not everyone judges everyone based on their ability to type correctly or incorrectly on a casual, international forum.

[–]Melchoir 0 points1 point ago

That's not the point at all! I wouldn't defend anybody who says "OP, your grammar is bad and you should feel bad". Rather, the point is to correct the mistake so that it isn't repeated in the future. That's why it's "For future reference". All it takes is for one person to judge anyone on any forum, and this correction becomes relevant.

And in response to your other posts: A private message helps OP but not the thousands of other people reading this thread. Indeed, many of them don't speak English natively. It's all the more important that when those readers are exposed to bad grammar, they're warned of the error.

[–]fourteendollars[!] 1 point2 points ago

No, because correcting him now will avoid potential confusion in the future. Also, he won't look like an idiot when it matters.

[–]enderxeno -1 points0 points ago

Private the person then. He'll get the message for sure - if you care that much. There's no need to correct something so trivial on a casual international forum.

[–]jonnyrotten7 0 points1 point ago

No, if someone is not corrected he'll continue to use it incorrectly, possibly affecting his work, because it just looks unprofessional. There is nothing wrong with educating someone.

[–]enderxeno 0 points1 point ago

Reddit isn't a formal essay. If you really wanted to educate him, you'd private him instead to make sure he got the message.

[–]hottsaucekid -2 points-1 points ago

these comments are really showing me how racist and just awful reddit's becoming lately. I think im done here...
