ALL CAPS CRUISE CONTROL FOR COOL.

and OP is a repost whore ---> http://www.reddit.com/user/Darcy1234/submitted/

[–]Fuskox 71 points72 points ago

Time to sift through his posts and downvote every repost.

[–]AscentofDissent 18 points19 points ago

Burn the witch!

[–]Large_banana_hammock 24 points25 points ago

Or find out it's a girl and upvote all of her posts.

[–]Fuskox 21 points22 points ago

Nah, I just gave her about 200 downvotes

[–]AscentofDissent 38 points39 points ago

Well, if you did it from her user page you wasted about 200 clicks and a few minutes.

[–]Dvdrummer360 8 points9 points ago

......go on......

[–]desertjedi85 24 points25 points ago

You have to go to each post to down vote it. It doesn't work from the user Page even though it looks like it does.

[–]jettrscga 3 points4 points ago

Also, votes stop counting towards karma after a certain period of time. Not sure of the exact time, but I think it's a day to a week or so.

[–]Dvdrummer360 8 points9 points ago

Oh god the horror.

[–]dickcheney777 -2 points-1 points ago

Thats fighting cancer.

[–]th1nker 2 points3 points ago

Really? For once, I'm pleased that the comment wasn't screen capped "a few seconds ago" in the picture, but people will always find something to complain about.

[–]Mimyr 2 points3 points ago

The part where the joke is older than Hitler also makes me think that it might be fabricated.

[–]matt01ss 10 points11 points ago

Burn em!

[–]Uncomfortable 4 points5 points ago

It's "Capslock is cruise control for cool." All caps isn't a switch or a toggle. It just doesn't work.

[–]DarknessFallsOverUs 2 points3 points ago

Duly Noted.

[–]Cabrio 1 point2 points ago

EVEN WITH CRUISE CONTROL YOU STILL HAVE TO STEER.

[–]PMR038 0 points1 point ago

Was new to me. OP gets an upvote.

[–]Im_Gay_SoWhat -1 points0 points ago

Link? this has been around since facebook was invented.

[–]number420pencil 83 points84 points ago

Is there a subreddit like /r/funny but without stupid facebook and youtube comments?

[–]SConnelly53 20 points21 points ago

I am definitely looking.

[–]number420pencil 21 points22 points ago

I remember that there was a vote to ban Facebook posts. It won by like 2 percent but wasn't implemented.

[–][deleted] 16 points17 points ago

Because "2% wasn't a big enough majority" or some nonsense like that. It's still a majority.

[–]digitalcriminal 6 points7 points ago

Welcome to politics my friend. Enough want change, but no one gives a fuck.

[–]Adtwerk 0 points1 point ago

Well did the minority party filibuster?

[–]limelight22 1 point2 points ago

Try r/jokes.

[–]mookdaruch 6 points7 points ago

Repost after repost after repost after posting the exact same thing with a different title after repost.

[–]Cayou 7 points8 points ago

With the Reddit Enhancement Suite, you can filter out posts that are tagged as [FB], [Facebook], [YouTube] or whatever. Then, all you gotta do is petition the mods to enforce a "youtube and facebook screenshots must be tagged as such" rule, which is much less unreasonable than asking them to enforce a "no youtube or facebook screenshots" rule.

[–]shmoodow 2 points3 points ago

/r/humor might fit the bill.

[–]Sowy 2 points3 points ago

yes /r/unfunny

[–]tick_tock_clock 1 point2 points ago

There are other funny subreddits, but each has a focus: /r/humor, /r/jokes, /r/comics, /r/nottheonion...

(see the sidebar for a lot more)

[–]jman583 0 points1 point ago

There is now:

/r/FunnyNoText/

[–]Xavier_the_Great 146 points147 points ago

It really kills me when I see people make fun of/abuse in some way those who are mentally challenged.

[–]maverick_adam 70 points71 points ago

Upvote for you sir. Having a sister with downs...if I ever saw someone slap her, I would remove their hand

[–]PseudoEngel 39 points40 points ago

I'd do life if someone abused my sister with autism.

[–]ziplokk 23 points24 points ago

I would just beat the hell out of anyone for raising a hand to my sister.

[–]Fraymond 24 points25 points ago

Not even for a high five?

[–]insideman83 36 points37 points ago

Especially for a high five... even worse if they do the down low, too slow shit.

[–]RiPotato 17 points18 points ago

Up in space, in your FACE

[–]th1nker 2 points3 points ago

Well, I hope she isn't a teacher. Her student's would have a rough year.

[–]MrLurid 15 points16 points ago

...I'm a terrible person for wanting to make a joke out of your sentence.

[–]PseudoEngel 6 points7 points ago

Let's hear it.

[–]MrLurid 16 points17 points ago

Well, nothing clever... mostly that someone would use autism to abuse your sister.

[–]PseudoEngel 6 points7 points ago

Lmfao. Oh goddamn it. I had to read my comment a couple of times to catch it.

[–]tap112 10 points11 points ago

You talking back to me!? Do I need to go fetch the autism?

[–]NaSCN 1 point2 points ago

I just shot whiskey out my nose, laughing so hard. Well done sir

[–]maverick_adam 1 point2 points ago

Yea I'd like to think I could control myself, but I'd probably go that far as well

[–]Slothnamedshotgun 1 point2 points ago

You should watch Dead Man's Shoes. Maybe not... It's relevant but may hit too close to home.

[–]PseudoEngel 0 points1 point ago

I'll look into it. Thanks. :)

[–]cdude 0 points1 point ago

what if your sister weren't autistic? how many years would you do?

[–]PseudoEngel 1 point2 points ago

If she weren't autistic it would depend on what my sister did. I know it varies from case to case, but my autistic sister doesn't do anything more than stare a little too long at strangers. If some dude hit my completely competent sister, I'd do however many years kicking ass gets you.

[–]NaSCN 0 points1 point ago

[–]limelight22 2 points3 points ago

Don't go on 4chan. You'd have a lot of hands to remove.

[–]godlessatheist 17 points18 points ago

I seriously can't believe that someone would watch someone slap a mentally challenged person and laugh about it on facebook. I think it was probably a friend who she is calling "retarded" but isn't really.

[–]snacksthecat 14 points15 points ago

You, my friend, have too much faith in people.

[–]Bobzer 1 point2 points ago

So when did we begin believing that this facebook post isn't just a fake?

Always remember what the OP is.

[–]NaSCN 1 point2 points ago

People are stupid

[–]StefanGod 3 points4 points ago

Yeah, I mean, what kind of a person would do that? I would rip his head of if I saw him do that...

[–]h413y 1 point2 points ago

Came here hoping there would be a comment like this. Thank you.

[–]bilateralchicken 1 point2 points ago

I knew a girl who once told me that if she had a child with downs she would drown him/her in the bath tub because she hated "retards."

I no longer associate with her.

[–]XavierMendel 0 points1 point ago

I like your name.

[–]shitty_hdr -4 points-3 points ago

But if the boyfriend slapped a fatso then reddit would laugh and call names at the fatso that has one of the forty chins red because of the slap.

[–]ieGod -5 points-4 points ago

We all get amusement from some particular characteristic or another. Don't take it personally.

[–]carrotv -4 points-3 points ago

Everything can be a joke or nothing can. I'm sure you've told a Holocaust or 9/11 joke

[–]Ell975 2 points3 points ago

But this isn't a joke, it is assault.

Making holocaust jokes doesn't make you bad, but actually causing a holocaust is.

[–]carrotv 0 points1 point ago

I don't mean slapping them- that is wrong. I just hate when someone goes to a comedy club and gets offended because the comedian says "retard"

[–]erryday_IAm_rustling 38 points39 points ago

/r/Iam14andthisisfunny has been starved for quality content of late. Thanks, brah!

[–]flounder19 68 points69 points ago

WOAH DUDE!!! THIS WAS HILARIOUS. I'M GLAD IT CAUGHT MY ATTENTION!!

Nice day for a drive.

[–]workingat7 11 points12 points ago

[–]RedThursday 3 points4 points ago

So reddit is basically 4chan now?

[–]WalkingCloud 8 points9 points ago

The title of this post is literally Hitler.

[–]DIP_MY_BALLS_IN_IT 6 points7 points ago

"OH MY TAP-DANCING CHRIST THIS IS SO FUCKING FUNNY"

-Literally nobody who saw this

[–]desertjedi85 -2 points-1 points ago

I liked it.

[–]nzoz 2 points3 points ago

What sort of fuck knuckle finds this shit amusing? If I ever saw anyone slap someone with a disability id hit them so hard their grand kids would be spitting teeth

[–]oncefoughtabear 13 points14 points ago

In high school, some punk was picking on a mentally handicapped kid. Later that day he got the shit beat out of him by a friend of mine. The kid got expelled, while my friend got a slap on the wrist and a thumbs up from the faculty and students.

[–]tech-bits 9 points10 points ago

My mom is a SPED teacher and as a result I grew up with an immense respect for people who go through their lives with such great disadvantages. Some of them who are of normal intelligence and just trapped in their bodies like some kids with CP. I decked a kid for making fun of a handicap student and did not receive the same treatment. I think my mother was the only one who was proud of me but she never said it.

[–]oncefoughtabear 2 points3 points ago

I am proud of you. That kind of shit makes my blood boil.

[–]tech-bits 0 points1 point ago

Thanks mom.

[–]oncefoughtabear 0 points1 point ago

Bet you didn't think your mom was a Redditor, did ya!

[–]queenofthecanned 0 points1 point ago

I beat up a kid who was picking on my brother,same situation

How old is this? I feel like I read this already, years ago.

[–]averybarbarian -1 points0 points ago

Fucking REPOST. Like oldest I've seen in a while... :(

[–]The4mccoys 1 point2 points ago

And the bitch and boyfriend need to have their fingers smashed in a steel door. Fuckers.

[–]checkmateathiests 2 points3 points ago

198 downvotes for you.

[–]zd91 1 point2 points ago

This looks hand written.

[–]Gareth00144 -1 points0 points ago

how not to talk to your girlfriend

[–]EnvoyOfSorrows -1 points0 points ago

When I see posts like this I just refuse to believe it's real. Because if it were I would remove certain people from our gene pool with my bare hands, and a smile.

[–]whettaz 1 point2 points ago

What concerns me about this, is someone slapped a retard, and someone else thought that was funny... I hope she means a figurative retard and not a literal retard. EDit: HE/SHE?

[–]TheEternalUnrest -1 points0 points ago

FUCK YOU FOR POSTING SOMETHING SO RETARDED. JUST FUCK YOU.

[–]vaginabeard 0 points1 point ago

Congratulations, you've won the r/ShitRedditSays award for SO BRAVERY!

You can bet that TwoX will spend about 3 hours talking about how this makes them feel.

Is SRS a serious subreddit?

[–]SaintZvlkx 1 point2 points ago

Not really. It was started as a trolling project by SA.

[–]NextName 4 points5 points ago

However, most SA members have left and it's comprised of serious members now. They say it's a circlejerk, but they're serious.

[–]scamps1 1 point2 points ago

SRS is a circlejerk, and they acknowledge it too

[–]Forever_Awkward -3 points-2 points ago

The facebook status is not about anybody slapping an actual mentally handicapped person. Just an idiot. How is this not completely obvious? People are actually getting worked up over this? If you want to be offended by this, be offended by the use of the word "retard" as an insult.

Am I the only person here left who knows when to take things literally? Seriously, are you all retarded?(Do you see how that works? This is how the word was used in the status.)

[–]TheSmiling -2 points-1 points ago

Repost.

[–]AliasUndercover -2 points-1 points ago

Badum. Ching.

[–]Zthulu -1 points0 points ago

TIL that Darcy1234 submits reposts to /r/funny on a daily basis. And none of them are funny.

[–]swimminfiend -2 points-1 points ago

this isn't fucking funny

[–]elfinhilon10 -2 points-1 points ago

Just upvoted this to 1337 status. Feels good.

I don't calling it slapping the retard. It's called spanking the monkey where I come from.
