*Upon sorry

[–]KelsomaticTennant 17 points18 points ago

No reason to be sorry for pointing that out. I really hope that's a typo and not how the person actually thought it was spelled.

[–]cupids_hitman 30 points31 points ago

Well, considering that 'a' and 'u' are nowhere near each other on the keyboard, I am a little worried for the OPs spelling ability.

[–]KelsomaticTennant 20 points21 points ago

Well to be fair, we all make those 2am+ spelling mistakes because our brains just don't quite function properly anymore, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

[–]EndOnAnyRollCyberperson 11 points12 points ago

Also, there is the assumption that OP is a native English speaker.

[–]Schmillt 13 points14 points ago

Maybe it's in a different language and the TARDIS just translated it wrong in our heads...

[–]bubblywater 5 points6 points ago

I thought maybe it was a play on Amy Pond... anyone else?.... only me... alrighty. shuffles off

[–]ivebeenhereallsummer 2 points3 points ago

I thought maybe an Apon was a DW alien I had forgotten about.

[–]Pedantic_RedditorDalek 1 point2 points ago

As a pedantic Redditor, I approve of this correction.

[–]Ryo95Silence 44 points45 points ago

If you found it on the internet, we've already seen it.

[–]thorn100 13 points14 points ago

If you found it on the internet, it's already been on Reddit.

[–]llxGRIMxll 4 points5 points ago

so you're saying we should give up and go back to our normal lives?

[–]enscrib 11 points12 points ago

That's what I got from it. Whelp, its been a good run, guys. Let's shut 'er down.

[–]MegaZambam 3 points4 points ago

Or post OC

[–]llxGRIMxll 6 points7 points ago

EVERYTHING IS ALREADY ON THE INTERNET! we can only add slight differences.

[–]BeadleBelfryTennant 4 points5 points ago

Everything on the internet is a repost of a repost.

It's time you came to terms with that, son.

[–]Zachness34Cyberperson 14 points15 points ago

Re-Post, but still awesome.

[–]busman 7 points8 points ago

So is THIS, and I personally think it does a much better job at conveying the banality and intense desire for "happiness" in the white western world.

[–]Zachness34Cyberperson 1 point2 points ago

I agree!

Dolphin Hands for all!

[–]NoSarcasmHereSilence 7 points8 points ago

The sweater just completes the whole thing.

[–]DJMattB241 8 points9 points ago

The video, in case someone hasn't seen it.

[–]Robert_Meowney_JrEccleston 40 points41 points ago

This is ancient

[–]GaffaChargeTARDIS 11 points12 points ago

you "Stumbled Apon" it in this sub-reddit...

[–]Fenoe 4 points5 points ago

[–]enscrib 6 points7 points ago

Apon, a pon, apon... Apond, a pond. Pond. Come along, apon.

[–]eeelisabeth 7 points8 points ago

They were dancing perfectly to the bluegrass music I've got playing. It was lovely.

[–]DutchPirate 3 points4 points ago

Does anyone have the original?

[–]DangerToDangers 4 points5 points ago

This gif (without the caption) was actually what made me want to watch Doctor Who.

Thanks to that gif I'm a whovian.

[–]CARoth 9 points10 points ago

Correction "British People."

[–]Fenrirr 24 points25 points ago

Nope, Canadian Caucasian here - we all dance like that too :<

[–]Super_Dork_42Smith 23 points24 points ago

American Cracker. Me too.

[–]SokkasInstincts 1 point2 points ago

That's my favorite number

[–]shaolinpunksDalek 1 point2 points ago

Isn't she Irish though?

[–]cactusgirl13K-9 4 points5 points ago

I think she's Scottish.

[–]CARoth 1 point2 points ago

....You win this round, shaolinpunks!

[–]shaolinpunksDalek 0 points1 point ago

Woo hoo!

[–]DoranNightingale 1 point2 points ago

I up-voted because I legitimately read it as "I hate people"... now I am somewhat divided.

[–]iluvhobos27Eccleston 0 points1 point ago

I love how a repost with a spelling error in the title has 780 upvotes (at this moment). ಠ_ಠ

[–]Banjulioe 5 points6 points ago

You mean you stumbles upon it in /r/doctorwho? because it's been here before.

[–]wehavetogobackk -1 points0 points ago

This is hilarious

[–]TenebrousPTARDIS 1 point2 points ago

Apron*

[–]BocaGuy410 1 point2 points ago

No matter how many times this gets re-posted, this always makes me laugh.

[–]obviologistK-9 0 points1 point ago

Hey its not their fault. they are jumping back and forth through time so much that I imagine it could get pretty hard to know what type of dance it acceptable in what time.

[–]KaitouKuroba 0 points1 point ago

But this is a repos and is at the top of /r/doctor who

[–]kiss_a_gram 0 points1 point ago

this is the best thing that has ever happened to my ocular cavities

[–]Sk8rGameFreakTennant 0 points1 point ago

Goes perfectly in sync with this

I came across this while browsing Reddit, and was listening to it as I came across this gif.

[–]hatramroanyMcGann 0 points1 point ago

So many reposts of this. But too awesome not to reupvote again.

[–]RyanJGaffney 1 point2 points ago

Re-post, but I laughed again.

Have an upvote

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

If only I could post a gif as my facebook timeline cover...

[–]R8Fan30Dalek[S] -3 points-2 points ago

raggle fraggle Okay. It was 1 in the morning when I found this. My spelling abilities are not the best then.... or 2... or when I'm nowhere near the TARDIS. Whelp.

[–]FreshFruitCup 0 points1 point ago

You spelled "European" wrong.

[–]pgaliats -4 points-3 points ago

"I wear stripes now. Stripes are cool."

[–]nicholasdeluccaSmith -2 points-1 points ago

Not sure if racist, or just funny
