When he hits the upvote, it should turn into a downvote.

[–]matt01ss 202 points203 points ago

Commenting so I can do this tomorrow

Edit: Couldn't sleep, so here you go: http://i.imgur.com/FuIc4.gif

[–]BionicBeans 28 points29 points ago

I also like tvreruns version.

[–]sk3lt3r 6 points7 points ago

You better keep me updated matt01ss.

[–]7thChaos 3 points4 points ago

Not matt01ss here, but your .gif is ready.

[–]Cleanshirt_Brigade 5 points6 points ago

Op actually delivers. That's a first.

[–]babiesloveboobies 2 points3 points ago

I see this getting used a lot in the future.

[–]KYLLER085 1 point2 points ago

Commenting to check up on this tomorrow. Let's just wait. Op will surely deliver.

[–]matt01ss 9 points10 points ago

So much pressure :/

[–]KYLLER085 3 points4 points ago

But is the pressure worth the sweet taste of karma?

[–]segue1007 5 points6 points ago

[–]getthegreen 1 point2 points ago

Delivered. Commenting to save this

[–]FishBonePendant 1 point2 points ago

Commented so I can find this

What now bitch?

[–]steel_crab 1 point2 points ago

The middle guy used to be a redditor like you, and then he took a downvote to the knee.

I'M SORRY.

[–]matt01ss 0 points1 point ago

As much as I hate that saying, it is pretty funny it hits him right in the knee, you even see him stumble afterwards

[–]sk3lt3r 1 point2 points ago

This is exactly how I envisioned it.. Thank you.. Thank you, matt01ss..

[–]matt01ss 1 point2 points ago

Just doing my duty good sir ma'am

[–]sk3lt3r 1 point2 points ago

I am a ma'am good sir, but because you fulfilled thy duty, I shall give you my upvotes.

[–]sgrodgers10 4 points5 points ago

I thought that was going to happen and it didn't. I still wasn't disappointed.

[–]Searingarrow 1 point2 points ago

I came to comment on this whole idea when i saw the gif... Now I feel unoriginal.

[–]Josh_The_Boss 7 points8 points ago

Thanks for not posting it as [FIXED]. I feel like everybody should do this.

[–]spazmodic- 0 points1 point ago

No problem! Someone will probably rip it off and post it anyway, though... those motherfuckers!

[–]midgetfury[S] 23 points24 points ago

[–]seamouse 45 points46 points ago

[–]miss_trixie 3 points4 points ago

well that's just mean

[–]black19 11 points12 points ago

You're right. The dance was the best part. Not to mention the slightly awkward silence after gumby rejects the shot.

[–]Conexion 1 point2 points ago

And if you notice, the guy leaning against the wall hits it to signal Gumby to come out.

[–][deleted] ago

[deleted]

[–]labonted 0 points1 point ago

the shooter got signalled by the guy hitting the wall, also as the door began to open.

[–]jonathanmacey 29 points30 points ago

Why is there a Precious poster?

[–]Timett_son_of_Timett 19 points20 points ago

Frat house boys often keep a finger on the pulse of the sensitive emotional porn that exists parallel to their lives.

[–]HimTiser 6 points7 points ago

Hey, I like sweeping generalizations, too!

[–]cyberslick188 0 points1 point ago

That... that was beautiful.

[–]ShiahLe-bitch 14 points15 points ago

GET THE FUCK OUTTA GUMBYS HOUSE YOU PUNK ASS BITCH !!!!!!!!!!

[–]cmcdowel 2 points3 points ago

Because Precious is fuckin' sexy. Back off haters.

[–]Squirrelson 55 points56 points ago

I love how obviously completely spontaneous this gif is. I mean that guy just leans against the wall and BOOM IN COMES A GUY IN A COSTUME.

Man that sort of shit doesn't happen everyday COMPLETELY RANDOMLY

[–]Timett_son_of_Timett 63 points64 points ago

GUMBY, MOTHERFUCKER!

[–]Mr-Tiggo-Bitties 33 points34 points ago

FUCK YOU GUMBY!

[–]comicsansibar -5 points-4 points ago

I like how he happens to just spontaneously bang his hand agaisnt to wall.

[–]Neosilver 1 point2 points ago

Whoosh

[–]Lying_Cake 14 points15 points ago

I keep thinking its James whenever I see a gumby suit.

[–]endlessPI3 0 points1 point ago

I watched the .gif to see if any creatures were there...

[–]PeterPorky 40 points41 points ago

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD SOMEONE SHOP A DOWNVOTE INTO THE .GIF

[–]tvreruns 39 points40 points ago

[–]Medvedbread 0 points1 point ago

Funniest thing I've seen all day

[–]Bobberkus3011 15 points16 points ago

Get that shit out of Gumby's house.

[–]Kbman 6 points7 points ago

Gumby don't give a fuck.

[–]Eckus 11 points12 points ago

Good shit OP. This is how I deal with reposts too.

[–]Ikarus3426 10 points11 points ago

By posting more reposts?

[–]PBR_hipster420 -1 points0 points ago

Touche

[–]tnicholson 2 points3 points ago

By reposting an old gif?

[–]Busterdouglas 0 points1 point ago

Exactly. More like my response to excessive repost...even one as great as this one.

[–]TropicalBlend 0 points1 point ago

I've always wondered why the shooting the ball takes so long to react. I mean the door starts opening while he is still raising the ball to shoot. Also, Merry Christmas Dammit!

[–]MadeForATVMovie 2 points3 points ago

clearly goaltending.

[–]uncoolhero 0 points1 point ago

How awesome would it be if instead was someone dressed as Slender Man that opened that door?

[–]Rockkstar 1 point2 points ago

"Gumby never been about that. Never never been about playin no shit!!"

[–]Ikarus3426 5 points6 points ago

"How I get karma for reposting something that's been posted a million times, just like people do on their cakeday."

[–]Soulless 1 point2 points ago

I love this .gif, because you can tell that the leaning guy obviously signals Gumby by banging on the wall with his fist.

[–]laura22lynne 0 points1 point ago

You just got owned by Gumby!

[–]deadpansnarker 2 points3 points ago

That is clear cut goaltending

[–]rugtap -1 points0 points ago

Yes you got it! Is he shooting a free throw? Lane violation! Not to mention moving the goal is some kind of interference. A tech at least.

[–]Leinheart -1 points0 points ago

[–]SECRETAGENTBOB 1 point2 points ago

I AM GUMBY, DAMMIT

[–]Ninja_Spike 0 points1 point ago

You gotta post this on your cakeday!

[–]ralphpotato 0 points1 point ago

I'm glad you have a handle on it, because I sure don't.

[–]cameratoo 0 points1 point ago

That is exactly how I handle gumbyblocksbasketball.gifs

[–]Skurvy2k 0 points1 point ago

this would be more accurate if the guy was throwing thousands of balls but you still came in and only smacked one down...

[–]dr_p53 0 points1 point ago

everyone is so confused lol

[–]Disturbedxpanda 0 points1 point ago

that was completely badass

[–]nacholady5 0 points1 point ago

This made my day. I laughed so hard I thought I was going to piss.

[–]JustEquilibrium 0 points1 point ago

I have proudly worn a Gumby costume for halloween, even crowdsurfed once or twice as Gumby too.

[–]TheRealNicCage 0 points1 point ago

I find the use of the term 'cakeday' extraordinarily grating.

[–]vonkey 0 points1 point ago

Actually "lol"ing. Fucking Gumby man.

[–]adamxftl 1 point2 points ago

GUMBY PLS

[–]ElCazador528491 0 points1 point ago

Dude watched this like 30 times this made my day I'm laughing so hard XD

[–]soulreaper700 0 points1 point ago

If I saw gumby walk into my house all pissed looking and smiling... I would poop myself...

[–]ensign_ackbar 1 point2 points ago

I'm Gumby damnit!

[–]mavsfan2513 0 points1 point ago

FUCK YOU GUMBY!

[–]FrogDie 0 points1 point ago

Sure you can hate them, but when some redditor with a cakeday posts OC he made for the cakeday there's nothing wrong right?

[–]Satherton 0 points1 point ago

and with the first pick in this years nba draft .... team selects gumby

[–]Dunkin11 0 points1 point ago

I must have watched this gif about 150 times, giggling the whole time.

[–]shweepinandcreepin 0 points1 point ago

Fucking gumby

[–]BaboTron 0 points1 point ago

There've been a lot more, lately, but not as many as last year. Then, it seemed like it was months before the "for my cakeday" posts weren't a multiple-times daily occurrence.

[–]drunxor 1 point2 points ago

This is how I handle them: DJ Drop it

[–]DatJapaneseUish 0 points1 point ago

It's like a buff James, haha.

[–]Needs_Better_Name 0 points1 point ago

Particularly liking that you are Gumby in this situation

[–]babiesloveboobies 0 points1 point ago

Ugh. I enjoy much of the content reddit generates brings to the surface but the culture gets irritating sometimes.

[–]galaxyforsza 0 points1 point ago

This is by far the best sub reddit I've opened in the past hour and a half

[–]Lan777 0 points1 point ago

Fuckin gumby im just tryin to shoot hoops with my friends, why you gotta be such a rubbery prick

[–]HybridEmblem 0 points1 point ago

Pffft, says the 7 month old redditor

[–]Kbr1119 0 points1 point ago

That made my whole night

[–]Brudus 0 points1 point ago

No one has fun on your watch.

[–]bloodboold 0 points1 point ago

That gif is top notch.

[–]ogreyo 0 points1 point ago

Interesting.

[–]RMHT123 0 points1 point ago

I would say something about the Prescious poster. But, I got nothing.

[–]BionicBeans 1 point2 points ago

Oh good! I've always wanted gumby at my birthday!

[–]DoctorNose 1 point2 points ago

Funny, that's how I handle common reposts.

[–]EzioAssassin123 1 point2 points ago

At the end, the guy who threw the paper was all "We got a badass over here..."

[–]AJTheCavie2012 0 points1 point ago

I sat at my dest for 5 minutes laughing at Gumby reject this guy's shot waiting for it to not be funny anymore. It hasn't happened yet.

[–]rokkitgurl 0 points1 point ago

Agreed. It's not like a cakeday is that special... everyone has one and you have it yearly. Get the fuck over it.

[–]RedditAndWhatNot 0 points1 point ago

I had to remind myself that no matter how many times I watched the gif he would never make the shot.

[–]Stuckbetweenstations 0 points1 point ago

Gumbercules? I love that guy!

[–]zakh134 0 points1 point ago

with reposts?

[–]YLK 0 points1 point ago

The funny thing is that this is how I handle reposts like yours.

[–]pilcheck 0 points1 point ago

The guy against the wall knocks! Out of all the years seeing this I can't believe that hasn't been noticed.

[–]FancyHearingCake 0 points1 point ago

FUCK GUMBY!

[–]Behemothgears 0 points1 point ago

MOTHER FUCKING GUMBY IS HERE TO WRECK YOUR SHIT FOOL!!!!!!!

[–]Budzy05 2 points3 points ago

"I'M GUMBY, DAMNIT!"

[–]Mavido 0 points1 point ago

Omg!! I do the same thing to every fucking reaction gif! Because they are posted 300 times a day with different titles. You are so creative!!!!!!! Bbbb chvybcgyskyfuj

[–]shooter190 -3 points-2 points ago

But.... But... MY CAKEDAY!

[–]uprislng 0 points1 point ago

I know that feel, bro

[–]shooter190 -1 points0 points ago

Worst CakeDay EVER!

[–]Fuck_MacKeeper -1 points0 points ago

10/10 would fap again

[–]ohstylo 0 points1 point ago

I pretty much downvote any post containing the words "karma", "cakeday", or any post referencing upvoting or downvoting.

Brb downvoting myself multiple times.

[–]utzbas 0 points1 point ago

fuck cake day... fuck it to hell

[–]jonhasglasses -2 points-1 points ago

Wow that's how I feel about shitty reposts like yours

[–]desthc -1 points0 points ago

This would've worked much better if your username was some variation of "Gumby".

[–]joannazasiewski -1 points0 points ago

Made my night. Just boss haha

[–]angelicone -2 points-1 points ago

[–]pumpkindog 2 points3 points ago
