I like your username.

If I'm not mistaken, it's a reference to Beta Ray Bill from the Marvel universe?

    The pepsi at the end was a nice twist. Completely unexpected.

    [–]kingoftown 88 points89 points ago

    Looked like a pepsi max... Not a pepsi twist

    [–]Afootlongdong 39 points40 points ago

    Whatever happened to Pepsi twist? Drink half of a 20 oz, dump out the second half, then fill the bottle with vodka and you have an amazing drink!

    [–]lurker_becomes_lurkd 77 points78 points ago

    Why do people act surprised about reposts? For one thing, it was new to me (and probably many others). For another thing, most of the content on reddit is reposts. There is very little OC.

    [–]iamjakeparty 44 points45 points ago

    That's the problem, it discourages OC. Why make something new when you can post something for the, in this case, 14th time and get to the front page?

    [–]oobey 23 points24 points ago

    I don't think the people who repost could make something new even if they wanted to.

    [–]x755x 7 points8 points ago

    They just shouldn't post.

    [–]MationMac 2 points3 points ago

    No, but it overshadows OC.

    [–]eamantite 12 points13 points ago

    Why not both?

    [–]iamjakeparty 8 points9 points ago

    Reposts are okay in moderation. I understand that some people may not have seen a certain gif/picture/video before but it can get a bit excessive sometimes.

    [–]tortangtalong69 4 points5 points ago

    Just get rid of karma and you get rid of the incentive to get to the front page.

    But karma is how people vote on what they like. All websites have some kind of point system.

    [–]Nashvillians 0 points1 point ago

    You're the problem here

    [–]TheDreadGazeebo 1 point2 points ago

    most OC is shit. the stuff that isn't shit gets reposted over and over.

    [–]MatterMass 3 points4 points ago

    Reddit has tons of funny, original, witty, and insightful OC, it's all in the comments.

    [–]lurker_becomes_lurkd 2 points3 points ago

    Yeah. Until it is bastardized into a post by someone desperate for karma.

    [–]Captain_LargePoop 1 point2 points ago

    It could have been the first time OP saw it. Yeah reposts can be annoying, but on the other hand, without OP I wouldn't have seen this.

      Same here...this is why all the nonstop complaining about reposts really bothers me (not to mention is against reddiquette).

      Unless it's retarded, blatant, this-was-on-the-front-page-yesterday reposting, I encourage the posting of funny or interesting material, whether or not it is a repost.

      There's this one: http://www.reddit.com/user/similarimage

      Wombo Combo!

      [–]ciberaj 3 points4 points ago

      I have no idea of what are they shouting for.

      [–]Serbaayuu 8 points9 points ago

      It appears to be a well-practiced and nearly perfectly-executed combo invented by the two green players.

      [–]anthereddit 3 points4 points ago

      It's a perfectly executed combo by two well-known players, SS (Silent Spectre) and Tang onto Zhu, who is known for his Falco (that's why they shout "that ain't falco").

      [–]Serbaayuu -1 points0 points ago

      Oh, good to know, I thought it was some random group. :D

      [–]anthereddit 2 points3 points ago

      Haha, no it was at a tournament in California that I actually attended. My voice is drowned in the cheering of the crowd, though.

      Zhu (the victim of the Wombo Combo) actually went to the same school as me.

      [–]ciberaj 0 points1 point ago

      It makes more sense now, I just thought they found a bug in the game or a secret thing.

      [–]TheAryanBrotherhood 0 points1 point ago

      Damn...This puts my childhood days of Smash to shame...Never had a buddy to 2v2 with :/ so, I never knew this sort of thing was possible.

      [–]anthereddit -1 points0 points ago

      Trust me, you wouldn't have been able to pull a wombo combo off even if you could. It takes some more advanced techniques even it it doesn't look like it.

      [–]Reid_Spencer 0 points1 point ago

      Isn't that pretty much the whole government?

      [–]morpheousmarty 0 points1 point ago

      I honestly think the government by and large tries to compensate you for your misfortunes, but I don't know which misfortunes you are considering.

      [–]CanIGetaHellYeah 1 point2 points ago

      I like to believe success requires more skill thank luck but I think in reality it's more of a murky mix of both, there is a quote I like that sums it up nicely.

      Luck favors the prepared

      [–]NeedsAGoodUsername 3 points4 points ago

      What the fuck? So the sodas just DROP 3~ feet? What stupid shit thought of putting soda in a vending machine like this?

      [–]heebsmagee 11 points12 points ago

      The top bottle is clearly water and the orange bottle is a drink called Drench, which isn't carbonated. The third row appears to be Gatorade or some other similar sports drink (I'm not very familiar with UK sports drinks), so only the bottom two rows are carbonated. Seems fine to me, and the layout of the machine is actually quite ingenious.

      [–]XtremeGoose 2 points3 points ago

      The 3rd row contains Robinson's fruit shoots I believe, which aren't carbonated. http://www.poundland.co.uk/images/15/original/fruit-shoot-large-blackcurr.jpg

      Maybe it's just me, but something about the way the camera follows the orange bottle as it falls is very satisfying.

      [–]TheMaryTron 1 point2 points ago

      As the person who answers the phone number on the side of the machine, please don't do this. Too many bottles will jam the picker arm and people lose their money if they are not paying attention. Then a small, unpleasant faction of them get upset with me when I can only offer a free product coupon as consolation.

      [–]I_have_binoculars 2 points3 points ago

      That machine doesn't have a picker. Product drops into one of three wells at the bottom.

      [–]TheMaryTron 0 points1 point ago

      Correct, but many glass front vendors do and get that trouble code A LOT with a 'well I was just trying to buy the one above it to knock it loose and the machine took my money.'

      I did this in June, I was catching up on some tests on the last day of exams and my teacher and I took a break so I went down to the caf to get a snack. I saw a bag salt and vinegar sitting wedged perfectly between the glass and the edge of the shelf, so I did what anyone would do and bought the Mars Bar above it and it came tumbling down. The success felt so much better than eating the chips itself.

      To me this is what high school looked like. Seriously, kids got 2for1 Arizona iced tea at least 20 times a day ever since they put them in the conveyor belt type machine. They also poorly held on to the drinks so you just buy a drink from a fully stocked row and out comes 3 or 4 drinks.I never knew the numbers but I imagine when they paid the company they were always very short.

      But Arizona sells a gallon for a dollar sometimes so I wonder if they still made profit.

      What failure feels like: Having the same scenerio, but with a bag of chips. Try dropping another bag of chips from above it, both fall but they're too big to fit into the drop-shoot, so now I've wasted money on two things that I can't get.

      I hated those machines back in school, had to either buy another one and walk around with two drinks or find someone who wanted a drink above mine. Milk machine was awesome though, give it a little shake and the whole first row would come out.

      Does it bother anyone else how damn fake this is? I mean, how did that orange bottle get stuck into that downward position in the first place? ಠ_ಠ

      have you never used a vending machine?

      [–]Lykdisifukryevrytim 1 point2 points ago

      Lol he just uses reddit too much and thinks its fake regardless of what you say

      [–]lunchboxg4 0 points1 point ago

      I have, but I've also taped stuff, and knowing to not only point a camera at this scenario, but also pan down at the right moment kind of give it away.

      [–]Kaiotic 0 points1 point ago

      Vending machines like this have this type of problem fairly regularly

      [–]hairysachs 0 points1 point ago

      One day I will master the art of vending machine trickery
