Wow, what I wrote was horrendous. I'm sorry you all had to read that.

[–]SuperSpaceExplorer 10 points11 points ago

I'm sad you edited it out. "Front the an old" feels like magic. Its going to be my mantra from now on. Meaningless. Comfortable. Front the an old.

I'm glad that I could be of such inspiration.

[–]georgebushsuperfan 3 points4 points ago

Because Reddit is where jokes are made

[–]electrolemon 7 points8 points ago

And the person that put it on the front page got it from a joke that is literally older than me and most of Reddit.

[–]Descriptivista 4 points5 points ago

Thank god you said literally or I would have thought you meant the joke was younger than most Redditors.

[–]StewieBanana 3 points4 points ago

They just added "apparently."

[–]RedPhalcon 5 points6 points ago

can I repost it with TIL Neil Armstrong...

[–]MrXBob 4 points5 points ago

The person who got it from the front page the other day got it from someone else. As did that person. And the person before that.

This joke/quote has been around for decades.

[–]snipsnip -2 points-1 points ago

He probably did. He had a good 40 years to come up with shit like this.

[–]pinetreeforrest -4 points-3 points ago

Even if he did, it wouldn't be funny.

  • 1) Tells unfunny joke about the moon.
  • 2) "Oh well you just had to of been there, hur hur"
  • 3) No body laughs because it still isn't funny.

[–]erryday_IAm_rustling 59 points60 points ago

This is how this joke works.

[–]Biggle 8 points9 points ago

It might be that I don't drink coffee, but I don't get this joke. coffee with lots of room because i like my coffee with creamer?? That doesn't make any sense to me.

[–]Megan_Bee 23 points24 points ago

Some people put cream in their coffee. It takes up space in the cup. All the people were sort of making fun of themselves for wanting a lot of cream space for their coffee. The joke is that the guy hears the same thing all day from all the customers

[–]Deli1181 14 points15 points ago

Yeah I remember when I worked at a supermarket. If I was having trouble getting an item to scan, or finding the price or something, at least 50% of the time the customer would be like "guess it's free then hyukhyuk".

[–]westcoastpopart 1 point2 points ago

hyukhyuk

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3H_56CUujXs

[–]Destructor__Creator 9 points10 points ago

"I like my sugar with coffee and cream".

[–]electrolemon 5 points6 points ago

People make the same stupid jokes to cashiers because they think they're clever. In this case, the joke is that the creamer is so plentiful that it outweighs the coffee. When I worked as a cashier and had to check hundreds, almost every single time someone would say "Oh don't worry, it's good, I printed it this morning." I wanted to punch them.

[–]thedeuce53 5 points6 points ago

Item doesn't scan

"I guess it's free then, right? Harhharhrhhahhahahahrrhrhh"

[–]Routah 3 points4 points ago

Read it a bit more closely and it'll open up, I personally promise that.

[–]Amorphous_Shadow 4 points5 points ago

Leave enough room in the cup for so much creamer, it's as if they are adding coffee to the creamer opposed to adding a bit of creamer to the coffee.

[–]AMostOriginalUserNam 0 points1 point ago

Are you confused about 'creamer' instead of 'cream'? I was too. I still am, to be honest. Apparently people don't have 'cream' anymore.

[–]SvenHudson -1 points0 points ago

You mixed up some words. It is not "I like my coffee with creamer" but "I like coffee with my creamer".

They're all making the same dumb joke.

[–]zorbork3000 -4 points-3 points ago

honestly after working at tim Hortons for a couple years how can people take so much damn cream and sugar in there coffee. I understand that people like coffee crisp but your not 15 anymore for christ's sake

[–]Full_Of_Win 7 points8 points ago

TIL Age determines what is acceptable to put in coffee.

[–]cybermind 4 points5 points ago

It gets so ridiculous, that when you wake up on what will be your last day on earth, you should just be chewing coffee beans. None of that "water" shit should be anywhere near your coffee.

[–]dragn99 1 point2 points ago

Can I at least coat the beans in chocolate first? I bet that'd taste good.

[–]Full_Of_Win 4 points5 points ago

You're an adult damn it! No chocolate in your coffee!

[–]ConstipatedNinja -1 points0 points ago

Honestly, after working at Tim Hortons for a couple of years, I still don't understand how people can take so much cream and sugar in their coffee. I understand that people like their coffee crisp, but you're not fifteen any more, for Christ's sake.

There were so many errors that I rewrote your entire post. Hope you don't mind the minor edits.

[–]zorbork3000 -1 points0 points ago

Thanks! (Edit) but not really.

[–]pldidit -5 points-4 points ago

Poor English majors, having to endure all that shit..

I was talking about the barista.

Buzz Aldrin just rolls his eyes in the background

[–]JasonGD1982 44 points45 points ago

Then Micheal Collins begins to gently weep.

[–]Merendino 29 points30 points ago

It's small and stupid, but lately I've been trying to do my part to inform people that there was a 3rd guy, and his name was Michael Collins. It'll never truly work, but god damn it, that guy needs to be remembered too.

[–]Luminair 7 points8 points ago

His name was Michael Collins

[–]SlickTricks 14 points15 points ago

Wasn't he part of Genesis or something?

[–]is45toooldforreddit 20 points21 points ago

You're thinking of Tom Collins. Michael Collins was a free safety for the Green Bay Packers.

[–]DrVoodoo 19 points20 points ago

You're thinking of Nick Collins. Michael Collins was the title of a 2007 George Clooney movie.

[–]Tedismyname 17 points18 points ago

You're thinking of Michael Clayton. Michael Collins wrote the book, Jurassic Park

[–]rivalius13 15 points16 points ago

Nope, that's Michael Crichton. Michael Collins was an Irish revolutionary leader.

whoooossshhhh

[–]oncefoughtabear 0 points1 point ago

He was part of the second wave of the Gemini astronauts, if memory serves.

[–]kwlnerd 4 points5 points ago

He got a film made about him at least, with Liam Neeson starring as Michael Collins.

[–]gnovos 5 points6 points ago

He didn't completely miss out, either. Hovering a couple kilometers above the damn moon is a pretty damn awesome thing! People forget that Buzz and Neil were only walking around there for two hours. The movie they eventually make about this will be longer than that.

[–]CharlieCharlie 1 point2 points ago

It's his own fault for not having a cooler name. Armstrong and Buzz set the bar kind of high. No one wants to remember some boring name like Michael Collins.

[–]Merendino 1 point2 points ago

No one wants to remember some boring name...

Said CharlieCharlie.

[–]CharlieCharlie 1 point2 points ago

I like my internet anonymity.

[–]oncefoughtabear 1 point2 points ago

Wow, that is really funny you should say that. I have started doing to exact same thing since a few weeks ago.

[–]Merendino 0 points1 point ago

Problem is, I'm kind of a hypocrite about it. I don't know the other guys who've been to the moon. Specifically the other 10 who actually set foot on it... shame on me.

[–]oncefoughtabear 0 points1 point ago

yeah....shit, good point.

[–]dclowd9901 0 points1 point ago

A redditor suggested that he and his friends use Michael Collins as a verb, meaning to drop someone off at a store or something to run in quickly while you hover around the parking lot.

This seems like a great way to help him get remembered.

[–]StewieBanana 0 points1 point ago

After laughing awkwardly like he got it.

Apparently Neil Armstrong used to tell unfunny jokes about the moon, and follow them up with "ah, I guess this is just a repost." #awesome

[–]nuworldblue 3 points4 points ago

I will cry if i accidently click a post to see this quote again. This is like the 5th time... :( The link was blue dammit!!!

Old man humor at its finest. Go into IHOP and ask if they serve pancakes level.

[–]electrolemon 2 points3 points ago

I don't get it. Pancakes level?

[–]Leave-It-To-Me 0 points1 point ago

Explaining jokes makes them funnier right? Asking if they serve pancakes at the international house of pancakes is an equivalent old man joke to OP

[–]electrolemon 1 point2 points ago

Oh. I interpreted that as

Go into IHOP and ask "Do you serve pancakes level?"

[–]The_A_Drain 2 points3 points ago

TIL what IHOP is.

edit: Oh well I'm sorry we don't all live in 'Murica!

[–]BourbonV 3 points4 points ago

it's "International House of Pancakes"

[–]The_A_Drain 5 points6 points ago

It can be as international as it likes, we don't have one here.

[–]BourbonV -4 points-3 points ago

Just saying, ain't just 'Murica comrade.

[–]The_A_Drain 7 points8 points ago

Yeah... No it basically is.

50 states, US Virgin Islands, District of Columbia, Guatamala, Mexico and Puerto Rico according to the Wiki. Hardly lives up to the name.

[–]wedgewood_perfectos -1 points0 points ago

there is the international airport of bellingham.

EDIT: that the only international services it offers is to canada.

EDIT 2: Wait fuck.

[–]BourbonV -3 points-2 points ago

Dude. It's IHOP. I couldn't give a shit. I'm sorry I got you riled up enough to wikipedia a breakfast restaurant. Let's just let it go. Deal?

[–]The_A_Drain 2 points3 points ago

Well it was the first link on google, and I had to because I didn't know what it was.

That's hardly riled up. I'm sure you'd google a Fat Rascal if you didn't know what it was and people kept going on about it.

[–]Descriptivista 1 point2 points ago

Obviously you gave enough of a shit to continue replying.

[–]TheExtremistModerate 6 points7 points ago

[–]rrrnnn -1 points0 points ago

which Neil Armstrong were you thinking of?

[–]mullavino 0 points1 point ago

Classified NASA papers leaked today revealed the shocking fact the the first man on the moon Neil Armstrong was in fact a woman called Nelly Armstrung. The papers also revealed that Buzz Aldrin was aware of the fact but was under strict orders not to disclose this information to anyone. Buzz Aldrin has confirmed that he is definitely male and will “f****ing hit” anyone who thinks different. He also denied the allegation that he and Nelly were locked out of the Lunar Module because she forgot the keys inside. NASA has declined to comment.
