Without the way it's formatted on Tumblr, it kind of loses some of the punch.

[–]Kevtron 19 points20 points ago

Thanks for sharing the link. The joke hits harder with the original context.

[–]sylphofspace 35 points36 points ago

It kills me because the context of this post is completely lost on most redditors.

So basically on tumblr, people will post gifs arranged into gifsets with the white borders in between them. But there's this recent trend where people make fake gifsets (like this one, for example) so it has a weird 3D effect. Some people think they're awesome, though most people are annoyed with them now because it's sort of a cheap effect.

[–]krash22 114 points115 points ago

This guy needs to be famous.

[–]why_dont_u[S] 200 points201 points ago

He is. He's The Frogman.

[–]thefrogman 128 points129 points ago

[–]why_dont_u[S] 4 points5 points ago

I hope everybody read what I said in James Gordon's voice.

[–]Rangourthaman_ -2 points-1 points ago

I read that in Gordon Freemans voice.

[–]Volcris -3 points-2 points ago

clever.

[–]oppandadardar 0 points1 point ago

For a minute there I thought the red highlight on your name means you're a moderator on reddit. Then I thought "oh, I'm mates with this guy."

[–]leonprimrose -1 points0 points ago

lol did you make this in direct response to "why_dont_u"'s comment or was this already made? XD

[–]does_ironman_numbers -1 points0 points ago

I was wondering when you were going to show up.

[–]worlddictator85 20 points21 points ago

And yet this image was posted to imgur instead of going to his site to give him traffic.

[–]why_dont_u[S] 21 points22 points ago

I gave him some credit. Here's more.

[–]Matrixski 5 points6 points ago

Reddit won't allow it.

[–]kojak2091 1 point2 points ago

Reddit is fine with it. They're not fine with him posting only his site, which they defined as spamming.

[–]thefrogman 86 points87 points ago

I tried asking the mods to take my site out of the spam filter. I promised never to submit anything ever again. I just wanted people who came upon my content genuinely to be able to submit my website instead of rehosting on imgur. They seem to be opposed to my advertisements, which feed my dog, pay my rent, etc. They say I can't "make money off reddit." Whereas they are okay with imgur making money off my content. I tried to be as reasonable and civil as possible... in the end they told me to quit whining.

So in r/funny, if you want to upload my stuff, feel free to use imgur. I'm done trying to reason with the r/funny mods.

[–]itsasillyplace 15 points16 points ago

r/funny makes me wanna burn this motherfucker down.

COME ON POOKIE!

[–]ericpid 12 points13 points ago

We love the Frogman and thank him for his awesomeness.

[–]unjson 5 points6 points ago

It's a shame how everyone on /r/funny insists that you link to the original source, but when it comes to frogman it's suddenly not allowed anymore. I now browse your website from time to time, thanks to reddit. So there's that at least...

You rock, froggie =)

[–]fearofthesky 4 points5 points ago

Thanks for being awesome.

[–]Phasechange 3 points4 points ago

I like your hat.

[–]kojak2091 2 points3 points ago

I'm just incredibly happy you responded to my post. I follow you on tumblr and word. Also I'm drunk so that's that.

[–]Jackcooper 2 points3 points ago

I've taken care of the mods, I told them that Reddit is owned by a for-profit company. That's the last we'll hear of them!

[–]radiobaby 1 point2 points ago

I find it somewhat ridiculous you aren't rich and 'real' famous.

[–]Matrixski 0 points1 point ago

That was what I thought, that they won't allow original posts linked to your site. And since Reddit is opposed to anyone making money from their site except their partner imgur, I wonder if Reddit would plan to go after all the people who make and sell Reddit things on etsy. I know it is a different sort of profit method, but still I think it makes banning a legitimate site as spam is silly in comparison to possible copyright infringement. I could be wrong of course, just my opinion.

[–]7zark77 5 points6 points ago

No, he's "internet famous"

[–]klopper 0 points1 point ago

What is the difference? Is Nicholas Cage "movie famous" instead of just famous?

[–]Jackcooper 4 points5 points ago

Chocolate Rain Guy is internet famous. This means no one really gives a shit in real life

[–]klopper -4 points-3 points ago

Internet is a big and money-making part of "real life". It's a mistake to separate the two.

[–]klopper 0 points1 point ago

I take it you don't agree? Yeah, Internet is a whole different ballpark. Totally separated from earth. -.-

[–]Titanium_cock 13 points14 points ago

The glasses one always makes me laugh

[–]why_dont_u[S] 38 points39 points ago

[–]GoldLegends 16 points17 points ago

I just realized that they don't actually do it for real.. They only reversed the video so it looks like they did it!

[–]thextrickster 15 points16 points ago

I demand that you write the obit for my childhood, seeing as your comment just killed it.

[–]JRowe3388 7 points8 points ago

The best thing about this gif is the perfect rhythm.

[–]jjswee 0 points1 point ago

Maybe that is a unconscious trick which makes some gifs better than others.

[–]stephj 1 point2 points ago

it's not unconscious when you're a designer and you actually get trained how to use rhythm/timing properly and play with it. or spend a lot lot LOT of time getting rhythm down on your own time. Kind of like a bassist. Gifs are for bassists.

[–]krash22 7 points8 points ago

Oh. I've only ever seen him on Reddit. I guess that's fame right there.

[–]why_dont_u[S] 17 points18 points ago

If being on a reality tv is considered being famous then this guy deserves a star on the walk of fame.

[–]Shasne 9 points10 points ago

He's bigger on Tumblr.

[–]Copter25 10 points11 points ago

Yet his site barely gets any revenue... since people don't like to link to his content on his blog, and so he doesn't make any money from his original content, which is his job, basically...

[–]Insanefoo 20 points21 points ago

Links to his tumblr are banned because of "spamming"

Blame reddit mods.

[–]tribes 2 points3 points ago

I like you Frogman

[–]molvix 2 points3 points ago

Because this is the top comment, it'll make seeing this easier. Here is the main source of funniness. He deserves as must credit possible

[–]TheCraterProject 36 points37 points ago

http://thefrogman.me/ for those interested in more

[–]Jive_Turkey_Mofo 11 points12 points ago

That made me make happy sounds.

[–]rcg90 -1 points0 points ago

Agreed. Unexpected and wonderful.

[–]romneyeatsspinach 0 points1 point ago

It's like there's chocolate in my brain eating sweet tarts.

[–]Flaydogg 8 points9 points ago

I seriously love this guy.

[–]thefrogman 22 points23 points ago

I love you too.

[–]DroppedTheShovel 4 points5 points ago

That guy on the right is an asshole.

[–]housut 3 points4 points ago

Well, to be fair, the guy on the left was being a bit of an asshole as well.

[–]DroppedTheShovel 5 points6 points ago

Bullshit, he was just sittin there loving life. You got him all wrong.

[–]BlueVeins 4 points5 points ago

Curious; why does 'Frogman' wear a bear hat?

[–]Matrixski 16 points17 points ago

[–]DigiSmackd 0 points1 point ago

His nose in the last pic... it...it's not natural...

[–]thefrogman 21 points22 points ago

It's the only nose I got. Can inspect your person for odd body parts? I want to tell the internet all about it.

[–]stephj 1 point2 points ago

now, now, mr. frogman.

we all have unnatural looking noses so you can go straight to that part.

[–]DigiSmackd 1 point2 points ago

I've got manboobs. And hair starting to grow in places it hadn't before. That help ya feel better?

It is the internet, after all... Mostly my comment was on how odd the picture made it look. You're most certainly right, I'm sure there are pictures of me (or certainly ones that could be taken) that make parts of me look..unnatural too.

I enjoyed the site. :)

[–]Matrixski 0 points1 point ago

I have a very similar nose to frogman, except more squarish (pig nose). I can verify it is natural.

[–]glandyover 1 point2 points ago

Because shtick?

[–]intensenerd 3 points4 points ago

Oh Frogman, you really shouldn't beat yourself up.

[–]Azhtek 3 points4 points ago

I have to wonder why there's a framed picture of a shoe in the background. Of all the pictures of things in the world.

[–]thefrogman 12 points13 points ago

I drew that in 7th grade. My mom framed it and hung it on the wall. I also made this horrible green coffee mug that she refuses to destroy.

[–]Azhtek 0 points1 point ago

Well, TIL. Fair enough, then. I no longer wonder about the shoe! Also, love the blog content. May there be many corgis in your future!

[–]Memento1979 0 points1 point ago

I assume my mother still has the utterly miserable flower vase I made in 5th grade pottery class. She had to plug a gap at the bottom with superglue so that it could hold water and, you know, actually be a flower vase. It would be a lot happier smashed into little pieces, I'm sure.

[–]wewtaco 1 point2 points ago

It's...it's him!

[–]durfro 1 point2 points ago

Where can i find more frogman?

[–]Matrixski 6 points7 points ago

[–]TigerWylde 0 points1 point ago

Thank you.

[–]drakk12 0 points1 point ago

If you are going to use his content, at least link to his site. You're taking away ad revenue from him.

[–]ZoLMiTRiPTaN 4 points5 points ago

/r/funny mods have banned his site from being submitted because they don't want him "making money off of reddit" and "spamming".

[–]uniquinick33256 0 points1 point ago

Where does everyone get this stuff? This is awesome!!

[–]why_dont_u[S] 21 points22 points ago

[–]WilsonHanks 3 points4 points ago

The Frogman blog, man.

[–]why_dont_u[S] 1 point2 points ago

[–]Darklink445 -1 points0 points ago

Haha now that's actually entertaining

[–]morgheng 0 points1 point ago

who is this guy? i need to know he's so dang funny

[–]lethargicwalrus 1 point2 points ago

Dammit, clone Frogman, I told you not to make ridiculous faces for our portrait!

[–]TurqTurtle 0 points1 point ago

You serious? This was fucking posted like yesterday.

[–]Toxicratman 0 points1 point ago

The retaliation from some people astound me. I've noticed some one or bot is down voting the positive and up voting the negative. This makes me very sad that people have to go this far. Why so much hate? And why take the time do do this? Why not do something useful? Instead of trying to force your opinions onto others? If you don't like it move along, is it that hard to do? If you don't find it funny that's ok no one says you have to. But you don't need cause so much commotion about it.

[–]Matrixski 0 points1 point ago

Agreed! Comedy is subjective, not everyone find the same thing funny. Same with varying tastes in music. It is just plain disrespectful and childish

[–]Matrixski 0 points1 point ago

Also, I think it would be best if many people would refer to the Reddiquette in regards to not down voting something because you do not agree with someone's opinion. Like I said elsewhere, not everyone enjoys the same things, including comedy, and people need to learn to respect different interests and opinions.

[–]TigerWylde 0 points1 point ago

I seriously looked at this. smirked "not funny" and was about to close it when he started moving - then I LoL'd. Have up votes. (yes I know you labeled it GIF - Im not big on reading titles. More just clicky everything blue.)

[–]rafiqandani -5 points-4 points ago

how does he do that? what magic, effect, crazy editing is done to achieve such a cool gif??

[–]solargatorade -2 points-1 points ago

I came here expecting epic underwater brawl.

I love this guy.

What's your problem do you fell better about your self now? You don't have to be a dick just because you sit in front of a computer.

Frogman still stinks, He was banned for spamming.
