BUT YOUR A HORRIBLE PERSON WHEN YOU DONT SMILE SO DUH

[–]greenymile 170 points171 points ago

reposts dont make me smile

OP is an 11 day old account that just reposts links

Every time you masturbate upvote a repost, God kills a kitten some original content

[–]testbug0 14 points15 points ago

account being groomed for marketing purposes?

[–]greenymile 9 points10 points ago

Probably.

[–]ralphingone5 3 points4 points ago

account being groomed for marketing purposes?

Please explain? Not familiar with this.

[–]mindsnare 8 points9 points ago

Get lots of Karma by reposting links so you have a good link karma score, and more trust within Reddit, then post links that you're getting paid for.

[–]ralphingone5 2 points3 points ago

ah ha...I see. Thanks!! That is definitely a good reason for downvoting re-posts that look suspicious then.

[–]greenymile 2 points3 points ago

look at the OP's profile

notice the sly tech review post tucked in there?

We must be ever vigilant against those who try and game the system of the hivemind

[–]Racketmachine 15 points16 points ago

That less similar pic is... creepy.

[–]Nj_all_day 28 points29 points ago

I never actually saw this, and it made me smile. So honestly, OP is doing me a service. Thanks OP.

Reposts bother me less than people complaining about reposts or karma.

Imagine if reddit was exactly the same, but with no karma system. Still upvotes, downvotes, etc. But there is no karma. So many whiners would be silenced.

[–]mazinger_z 19 points20 points ago

Here's my take on it and why I think reposts are harmful to the site while still being a service to redditors who haven't seen the original post.

Check OP: 10 day old account, x amount of link karma (through reposts) and 0 (ZERO) comment karma. Meaning, his/her only contribution to reddit has been to go through the treasure chest and regurgitate content. Granted, it's useful to folks who would otherwise miss those posts but when that is your only contribution, frankly it's poor form. As this behavior is repeated more and more often I can certainly understand why some people can't help but complain.

[–]Nj_all_day 1 point2 points ago

I agree that there are 2 sides to this coin. I see tons of reposts everyday. It is sometimes irritating. I have to keep reminding myself that the people upvoting are people who are seeing it for the first time.

I understand this guy's only job is to repost content (who knows why). Still, if he is even making a couple people smile or laugh then it is worth it.

Just remember that it's very easy to just downvote, click hide, and move on.

[–]DrSandbags -1 points0 points ago

Is the OP "stealing" from some fixed pot of karma? Are you worried that the OP going to corner the stock market with his/her basket of "stolen" karma or something?

Over 4,000 people haven't seen this post or enjoyed seeing it again. Downvote and move on.

[–]notquiteotaku 2 points3 points ago

I agree. I don't mind reposts so much if there are plenty of people who missed it the first time around. If people enjoy it, what's there to complain about?

[–]Ztiller 0 points1 point ago

Complaining about reposts is the second best way to karmawhore after posting them.

The difference is that posting reposts is actually contributing.

[–][deleted] ago

[–]Combu5tibleSquid 3 points4 points ago

To be honest I don't mind reposts as long as they don't happen to frequently. Some reposts have reminded me about awesome but long forgotten posts and others have allowed me to see posts that are new to me but had been buried a while before I would have ever seen them.

[–]Wharrghabl 0 points1 point ago

Question:

Is it possible to just block users like this so posts like this don't show up?

I get that some people haven't see this image before but some of us kinda don't want to see other accounts that solely repost images from 1999.

Is it possible?

[–]RoflAesthetics 5 points6 points ago

THIS made me smile.

[–]RussianBears 4 points5 points ago

Does it count if it's the same complaining about re-posts in r/aww comment?

[–]mostlybob 3 points4 points ago

Something about complaining at all in r/aww just feels anti-karmic.

[–]scalv 0 points1 point ago

It made me smile the first time I saw it.

[–]MarlonBain 1 point2 points ago

I would like to see what the reddit front page would look like if you only count the votes of people who have more than some amount of comment karma. People who comment are here enough to know what a repost is and what bullshit is. I'm not saying that everyone has to see that front page, just that I would like to know what it would look like.

[–]redbluebird 0 points1 point ago

Or maybe two separate front pages -- one that is the current page, and another that shows what it would be like if only the more experienced or highly rated commenters' votes were counted. I'd be interested in seeing the comparison.

[–]metropolypse -1 points0 points ago

I think this comment may be a repost from the last time someone reposted this picture and got called out for it...

[–]greenymile 0 points1 point ago

why? has it been reposted in the last 3 days?

[–]metropolypse 0 points1 point ago

Hey I was going with your joke! (And, if you must know, I've been a user for a while, but my old account was not anonymous so I decided to start over.)

[–]greenymile 0 points1 point ago

/s or /joke usually works in these instances

[–]metropolypse 0 points1 point ago

[–]RationalAsh 1 point2 points ago

[–]marler92 1 point2 points ago

The moment I saw this pic, I was able to recall all the past times I've seen it, but the title the OP put on it. I was going to be disappointed in not seeing someone calling him/her out

I've never seen it and it made me smile, so take that.

[–]lackofbrain -3 points-2 points ago

Stop complaining about reposts. It took you longer to write that than it would have to just move on. And now you've taken my time as well to tell you the bloody obvious.

This could go on for a while but I'd still be right and you'd still be wrong.

It's a proto marketing account

Or I see a pic that was posted before that I happened not to see.

[–]Ztiller -3 points-2 points ago

Last one was 5 months ago.

[–]turnreddintheface 21 points22 points ago

downvoting you... downvoting you makes me smile

[–]orniver 22 points23 points ago

It didn't make me smile because I've seen this exact picture several times this month on Reddit.

[–]joemangle 12 points13 points ago

Did it make you frown, or did your mouth just stay neutral?

[–]misterioes 5 points6 points ago

"several times this month" = one time 5 months, the other time 9 months ago.

People consider this bending the truth or outright lying? Dunno, but it pisses me off. Stop talking out of your arse, my dad would say.

[–]Selvano 2 points3 points ago

"PFFFT!", my ass would say.

[–]Lots42 1 point2 points ago

[–]dem_paws 9 points10 points ago

The only thing that makes me smile is the wailing of tormented reposters :|

[–]RichB93 4 points5 points ago

Cute picture. Downvote for being a repost account as greenymile said. Get your shit out of here.

[–]deja-vu-comment 8 points9 points ago

dammit not this again! .

[–]reversed_butthole 6 points7 points ago

Fuck off!

[–]TATANE_SCHOOL 2 points3 points ago

Somebody knows why the dog's eyes are so red ? Is this normal ?

[–]GreatDaner26 8 points9 points ago

It's a Great Dane, they have saggy skin around their eyes. It is pretty normal.

[–]_readit_ -1 points0 points ago

I don't find this "aww". I'll show myself out.

[–]Lord_Bumberchute 4 points5 points ago

The dog is high.

[–]IhateToronto 1 point2 points ago

Yup, totally normal for a Great Dane :)

[–]InFinitYW 0 points1 point ago

It would be a bit more cute if the dog didn't look like a crackhead on the second picture.

[–]With_Much_Lov3 0 points1 point ago

At first I thought this was my boyfriend's great dane and kitten.... Then I remembered his great dane would try to EAT that poor kitten, not lick it.

[–]Lots42 1 point2 points ago

Unfortunately he sneezed and the kitten ended up in the laundry basket five rooms away.

[–]MOMFOX 0 points1 point ago

i don't mind an occational repost but this one has been on every animal posting ever made

[–]FremanKynes 0 points1 point ago

Would this Dog's name happen to be Conan? I think I know this dog.

[–]kawanami 0 points1 point ago

Yeah this doesn't make me smile at all. Maybe it's not something wrong with me, and it's the total and utter desensitizing to cuteness I've experienced since I started reddit, which really hasn't been too long

[–]inslomo808 0 points1 point ago

First you smell it and then you lick it.. best way to verify if it's good pussy

[–]Kimisannoying 0 points1 point ago

I did not smile...

[–]yemd 0 points1 point ago

old and has been posted countless times before.

[–]Supervixen007 0 points1 point ago

[–]wtf_shroom 0 points1 point ago

That cat is all like "eeeeeh gross but whatever".

[–]BGYeti 0 points1 point ago

Don't be fooled, the Great Dane is actually taste testing the cat.

[–]Adlynn 0 points1 point ago

I have not seen this one yet really cute. The cat is thinking oh crap he is sniffing me I'm lunch!

[–]TheLastTimeLord9320 0 points1 point ago

The cat is like "WHAT THE HELL IS THAT ..........................what is it doing"

[–]thesirblondie 1 point2 points ago

If I can see the red around a dogs eye, I wont think it's cute...

[–]IhateToronto 0 points1 point ago

If it doesn't make you smile you should kill yourself. There's something VERY wrong...

[–]PercyChuggs 0 points1 point ago

If I haven't seen it, it's new to me. I won't penalize you because some Redditors have no lives and can spend 4 hours a day on r/Aww and see everything.

[–]Grachuus 0 points1 point ago

Just tasting for condiment usage. It's improper to go to a restaurant and assume the dish needs ketchup without tasting.

[–]DudehesRight 0 points1 point ago

I had to hold back my smile, because when I'm told to do something, I must not do it.

[–]ThatSmile 0 points1 point ago

I would have smiled if you didn't tell me I would smile, but now I took it on myself to not smile to show myself up.

[–]herpesboy 0 points1 point ago

Your dogs eyes are red bro. You got your dog high didn't you?

[–]MakeItPersonal 0 points1 point ago

"Well, alright. I'll eat it.

I expect better from you tomorrow."

[–]sorryjzargo 0 points1 point ago

5 seconds later, the cat was swallowed by the dog, on its way through the digestive system

[–]loveypower 0 points1 point ago

aww the kitty didn't see it coming. :)

[–]barske 0 points1 point ago

It was a taste test... chomp

[–]RKCKickers 0 points1 point ago

It just sucks to think fucks like this get away with blatant reposts and yet soft redditors will upvote it to the front page every time... check the comments before you upvote god damn it

[–]beatlelover13 0 points1 point ago

this is one of the most adorable things ever!!!! i can't stop smiling!!! i think this made my day!!

[–]ArduinoUno -3 points-2 points ago

Person next to MuttonChops here. I am indeed uncomfortable.

[–]ubomw -3 points-2 points ago

So, the first picture the dog looks at his prey, then the dog tastes the cat. I think I've found the third picture.

[–]Draxaan -1 points0 points ago

It's cool how the dog only has its head on the cat, but looks like it is eating it.

[–]frapmocha -2 points-1 points ago

And here I thought that dog was a cow... I was like..."hmm, that's new, cow & a kitten...oh wait...same old dog & kitten trend."

[–]FoxBattalion79 -2 points-1 points ago

apparently you don't know what makes me smile

[–]Seruz -2 points-1 points ago

Those dogs look horribly creepy imo

[–]txredfish -2 points-1 points ago

This is not an r/aww item... This should be under under r/foodporn... The great dane is checking the seasoning. Hrmmm, "I think is needs paprika."

[–]Fooleo -5 points-4 points ago

Kitten tears to sooth my sunburn.
