You and many other mature redditors.

That's an immature thing to say.

or browse /r/all?

[–]ramo805 18 points19 points ago

why would I unsubscribe from stuff and then browse r/all?

[–]nwsreddit 7 points8 points ago

To see all the stuff you haven't subscribed to yet. I do wish I could ignore certain subreddits in /r/all.

[–]strifeblood 8 points9 points ago

Reddit Enhancement Suite can filter out subreddits from all I think.

[–]nwsreddit 4 points5 points ago

Ah nice, you can!

the gear > settings console > filters

for the curious

[–]NonPermissive 4 points5 points ago

Yep. I find the phrases pretty useful too. "faith in humanity," "look who I just," "gem," "overly attached," "oh, youtube". Cuts down on the riffraff.

[–]sietai 3 points4 points ago

I know it's a repost, but it honestly makes me laugh every time.

Why is reposting pictures bad but reposting comments good?

[–]Bainemo 0 points1 point ago

Why is giving someone a black eye bad but giving them a flower good?

[–][deleted] ago

[deleted]

[–]NonPermissive 2 points3 points ago

Because you don't know them very well?

[–]anim8 65 points66 points ago

If you love it, link to the actual article! You are stealing compromising their ad revenue.

[–]persistent_illusion 7 points8 points ago

That's not what stealing means.

[–]iamadogforreal 0 points1 point ago

If there wasn't a FULL SCREEN VIDEO AD COVERING THE SCREEN, I could really see people going out of their way to do so. Jesus, its one thing to have ads, its another thing to assault us with ads that literally cover the content.

[–]feureau 11 points12 points ago

For whatever reason, the ad doesn't appear on my end of the internet... I guess I must've installed something on my browser that's causing this anomaly... I wonder what on earth could be powerful enough to block ads...

[–]TerryArchi 0 points1 point ago

Now we've gone full circle. By blocking the ads, you're also "stealing" ad revenue the same way op did.

[–]bitter_cynical_angry 0 points1 point ago

Hm, if I'm stealing ad revenue specifically, then it seems my bank account should be growing by the amount of said revenue. But it isn't. If I'm stealing something, it certainly isn't revenue.

[–]WK_of_Angmar 0 points1 point ago

Technicalities. Oh how we all love technicalities.

[–]bitter_cynical_angry 0 points1 point ago

Technicalities are actually important, sometimes crucial. So yes, I do love them, and so should we all.

[–]TerryArchi 0 points1 point ago

I know, that's why I put "stealing" between quotation marks. I wrote that before anim8 scratched the word. I said you were "stealing" ad revenue just as op was, but of course non of you were actually stealing it.

Yeah, how dare those cunts annoy me with a video while I try to look at all the funny shit they write for free!

Fuck you.

[–]pungkrocker -2 points-1 points ago

He is not stealing anything.

[–]wldrnryn 27 points28 points ago

I have seen this posted more on reddit than any other repost ever in the history of reposts.

[–]Anonymous3891 10 points11 points ago

I don't know about the most reposted, but it's definitely top ten material. The Knights of New must have a bunch of guys on vacation today or something.

[–]Fuck_Facebook_Caps 6 points7 points ago

They must be. They've let a whole bunch of crappy facebook posts get to the front page too.

[–]Dat_Karmavore 2 points3 points ago

Quick, call in the reserves!

[–]MuffinBoss 4 points5 points ago

THERE ARE NO RESERVES.

[–]feureau 0 points1 point ago

I thought the knights of new disbanded when the eternal september event occured.

I saw this multiple months ago. I wish I would upload more stuff to reddit.

[–]invisibleprisms -1 points0 points ago

so great

[–]YouTypeA 0 points1 point ago

Some of the onion is pretty crazy. I saw one about a Sears plane flying into the Sears tower. Let's just say the comments weren't very pleasant.

[–]JasonEay 1 point2 points ago

I don't mind reposts, but, the same exact title as the most recent repost? Come on OP.

[–]corby315 1 point2 points ago

To be honest that is exactly what is happening.

[–]Gimli_The_Dwarf 0 points1 point ago

I used to subscribe to the hard copy of the Onion. I left this one on my coffee table for months

[–]mrjdblack80 0 points1 point ago

HOE-LEE SHIT. I used to takes dumps reading an old book of the Onion 16 years ago with these same headlines. Is the Onion that fucking senile to run old headlines or are the readers that goddamned stupid and out of touch. Fuck them both, I dont care anymore

[–]Derp-herpington -1 points0 points ago

What is with the comma?

Redditor sees this Repost, Down votes says redditor.

[–]mystery79 0 points1 point ago

One time I shared an Onion article with a friend...he got really pissed off about it and started slamming the writer. I had to then inform him that it was a parody and apologized that I assumed most folks knew that.

Awkward.....

[–]ninelives1 0 points1 point ago

I love the repost. said no one ever.
