Nice name she has, "elbow".

[–]Pillowsonapile 7 points8 points ago

Damn. Came here to say her last name means Elbows in dutch... Upvote for you, sir...

[–]BICEPS 8 points9 points ago

Also in German

[–]Pillowsonapile 2 points3 points ago

In German it would be Ellbogen.

[–]BICEPS 1 point2 points ago

Ellenbogen is also possible. Learned it that way.

[–]Pillowsonapile 0 points1 point ago

No, Ella6361 is right, the correct term would be ''Ellebogen''. Source: I'm Dutch, too.

[–]BICEPS 0 points1 point ago

Well I'm German and I know that you can write it both ways in German

[–]Pillowsonapile 0 points1 point ago

But German isn't Dutch, now is it? In fact, I think they're very very different.

[–]BICEPS 0 points1 point ago

They're two different languages, but Ellbogen is the same word in both ones.

[–]Pillowsonapile 0 points1 point ago

No, Ellbogen is not Ellebogen. Sure, they both mean ELBOWS. But we have an extra fuckin' E. So they're not the same. The pronounciation is different as well.

[–]dotakiller -5 points-4 points ago

I'm Jewish, well this is awkward.

[–]BICEPS 2 points3 points ago

Why?

[–]dotakiller -1 points0 points ago

because I said "this is awkward" which makes everything awkward.

[–]JeremyG 3 points4 points ago

Because that makes total sense.

[–]dotakiller -3 points-2 points ago

Well this is awkward.

[–]Ella6361 0 points1 point ago

Well, actually it's "ellebogen", not "ellenbogen" (source: I'm Dutch)

[–]MentalParadox 0 points1 point ago

Ellabogen =)

[–]Ella6361 0 points1 point ago

Actually, I get that a lot here XD

[–]TheCabalist -5 points-4 points ago

Came here for the exact same reason. Dammit!

[–]dotakiller 35 points36 points ago

I came here for a completely different reason.

[–]Nebulaterous 13 points14 points ago

I came

[–]mechesh 1 point2 points ago

I knew it...I'm surrounded by the Dutch!

[–]Jrod11[S] 1 point2 points ago

I'm glad that its been my nickname for five years and I'm only just finding out everybody has been calling me elbow..

[–]MSinBSandPhDinADD 11 points12 points ago

"This SUCKS"

/Stop sign

[–]TheTroopper 33 points34 points ago

Haha. It's funny because it was a stop sign.

[–]Reaper-Tours-EU -3 points-2 points ago

The Irony

[–]kavar13 12 points13 points ago

someone should put a downvote on the stop sign

[–]stabberthomas 9 points10 points ago

[–]JKR93 4 points5 points ago

He still has a long ways to go.

[–]dotakiller 6 points7 points ago

Someone should photoshop out the stop sign, and make her get hit by a giant downvote.

[–]kofman1750 12 points13 points ago

[–]INeverRedditAtWork 3 points4 points ago

LOL. that subreddit is a bunch of the same gif posted with different titles. I could not beleive that a subreddit could subsist on just that, had to click every link on the front page just to make sure.

[–]retinarow 1 point2 points ago

Yeah, that's really weird.

[–]lucas42 2 points3 points ago

Video source?

[–]goldenspork 9 points10 points ago

It's an episode of "The Class." It was on CBS for less than a year despite being a pretty good show.

[–]sahboe 3 points4 points ago

It really did have a lot of potential, especially if they toned the laugh track down a bit.

[–]goldenspork 2 points3 points ago

They were clearly still getting into the right swing of things, when they started to focus on specific characters the more episodes they wrote. I think by a second season, it would have been really quite good.

[–]lucas42 2 points3 points ago

Thank you. I'll watch that next week.

[–]buttluvin 2 points3 points ago

Sometimes I run stop signs. Although, It's very rare.

[–]google_me_95 1 point2 points ago

ya i know that feeling

[–]spandario 2 points3 points ago

The problem is you're trying to be funny. One just has to be funny.

[–]TMox 1 point2 points ago

Sympathy upvote.

[–]evilbananaman 1 point2 points ago

Or, you know, just repost this.

[–]Baskin 1 point2 points ago

True story!

[–]balcerzak 1 point2 points ago

I watched this for wayyy too long

[–]ilovelittlepiggies 1 point2 points ago

you mean "whenever i try to have sex with my girlfriend"?

[–]PTCruisin 1 point2 points ago

The trick is not to TRY...

[–]gorg3ousg3org3 1 point2 points ago

im so tired of seeing this on reddit

[–]TomTom1988 1 point2 points ago

Yes!

[–]Trev0r92 1 point2 points ago

Frankly, i'm tired of this GIF.

[–]conley46 1 point2 points ago

at least you try to cheer someone :)

[–]Kalanth 1 point2 points ago

My new favorite .gif

[–]Tripper24 1 point2 points ago

Stop does mean go

[–]Andokool12 1 point2 points ago

Huh, for some reason it didn't happen this time.

[–]MrsJetson 1 point2 points ago

Aw, well looks like this one is working out for you at least.

[–]time4anewsn 1 point2 points ago

People see how obviously fake it is.

[–]bozzwtf 1 point2 points ago

Do they...?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

You won't be funny today either apparently

[–]ekimdad 1 point2 points ago

I have seen this .gif all over the place lately. Did this really happen, or is this something from The Daily Show?

[–]FreedoomR 1 point2 points ago

Pretty much the same for me, though I'd be hit in the face with a downvote arrow.

[–]eddymurphyscouch 1 point2 points ago

This is a nice gif, it made me giggle. I hope someone doesn't ruin it by declaring repost.

[–]Violentopinion 0 points1 point ago

That gif sums up my attempts for today. Lurk mode engaged.

[–]poteaser 0 points1 point ago

That's probably one of the funniest gifs I have ever seen.

[–]loginginishard2Do 0 points1 point ago

That happens to me no matter what.

[–]IvanMawesome 0 points1 point ago

Nice job. I have never upvoted a post about posting on Reddit before.

[–]CampingPirates 0 points1 point ago

I loved that show

[–]Kahlas 0 points1 point ago

Don't view everything on reddit then? I dunno how to make this problem of yours go away.

STOP

[–]LaterGatorPlayer 5 points6 points ago

Hammertime.

[–]HerraH 1 point2 points ago

I feel you and your stop sign.

[–]neotropic9 1 point2 points ago

Stop signs are dangerous. About a year ago I read a story about a guy walking down the side of the road who was decapitated by a moving stop sign.

[–]newloaf 4 points5 points ago

The word you're thinking of is 'Allosaurus', not stop sign.

[–]cardnalfang386 1 point2 points ago

I think it's a sign

[–]ben630 1 point2 points ago

Stop...
