I'm willing to bet that this is just a clever ruse to throw us off of his trail.

[–]Sexy_Rhino 33 points34 points ago

A little piece of my heart just died.

[–]eventually_i_will 22 points23 points ago

Don't worry, we still have to figure out where in the world Carmen Sandiego is.

[–]Sexy_Rhino 23 points24 points ago

Probably dead with the rest of my childhood.

[–]eventually_i_will 8 points9 points ago

Maybe it'll come back to life? It'll bring back the best sorts of TV shows, toys, and memories... the best sort of zombie outbreak.

[–]ptgkbgte 4 points5 points ago

Combined with an attack of the killer tomatoes.

[–]no_were_musicians 1 point2 points ago

And now the them song for the animated version is stuck in my head. Thanks

[–]ANAL_QUEEN 4 points5 points ago

She's a sex slave in southern India, it turns out traveling alone wasn't safe for Carmen.

[–]NewReligion 14 points15 points ago

[–]Tonytarium 5 points6 points ago

Fucking impossible to find, my directions took me all over the place.

[–]eventually_i_will 2 points3 points ago

that it was, that. it. was.

[–]bobotheking 1 point2 points ago

RES refused to open the image, so I thought you were making some kind of ingenious joke. Then I just clicked the link. I'm slightly disappointed.

[–]BoernerMan 20 points21 points ago

It's wally damnit!

[–]BoernerMan 4 points5 points ago

the question is.. which is the original?

[–]Ephaxx 1 point2 points ago

It was created in London, so, Wally is the original, even though UK isn't even listed.

EDIT: more info.

[–]OgReaper 0 points1 point ago

Waldo sounds better.

[–]_newtothis 24 points25 points ago

Hun, /r/funny is taking things from tosh now? I thought it was the other way around.

[–]TheAmityvillain 12 points13 points ago

It would be wise of you to cut the elitism seeing as your shelter is one constructed of glass...
Reddit is an aggregator of content not a producer of OC. At least Daniel Tosh makes original jokes about the videos and not the same nazi/not-see puns incessantly. He also does create some OC with his sketches.

And I don't even watch his fucking show, but this snobbery is ridiculous; a lot of reddit seems to be suffering from USI.

[–]drellim14 -1 points0 points ago

You are better than everybody else. You're a better driver, better worker, and better everything.

[–]OgReaper 0 points1 point ago

Thanks. I know I am. This wasn't directed at me. But I'm going to pretend that it was. Also I'm going to pretend you aren't being sarcastic.

[–]Wuped 1 point2 points ago

I'm not being sarcastic; you are literally the best at everything.

[–]Fishyish 0 points1 point ago

Yay!

[–]minizanz -3 points-2 points ago

it is the circle of reposts. he gets it from 9gag, who gets it from us, who got it from4chan, who gets mad that we took it form them, and we get mad about 9gag, then they get mad a tosh, and he is all happy since he gets attention and money for doing nothing but making bad puns and saying random shit in front of what was on the front page and filtered down for 9gag then him to steal with no effort or credit to the creators.

[–]Nerd_Swag -1 points0 points ago

Also known as the circle of life. Someone is bound to use/steal what someone else invented. Think about it, Russia was the first to send something into space, and then America joined the party. Now everyone is sending stuff into space.

[–]TIGGERNITS -4 points-3 points ago

Came here to post this, savor this motherfucking upvote. SAVOR IT

[–]futue_te_ipsum 3 points4 points ago

now we must search for his killer!

[–]ptgkbgte 1 point2 points ago

Liam Neeson is on it.

[–]maledin 4 points5 points ago

That's Oakland Cemetery, in Atlanta!

[–]ericzundel 1 point2 points ago

I recognized it too. Waldo definitely could get lost in there.

[–]LtPeanuts 6 points7 points ago

I've never understood why Wally was changed to Waldo in the American version.

[–]Zimyver 2 points3 points ago

Don't worry it's only Waldo that's dead, we can still search for Wally.

[–]omg_cornfields 1 point2 points ago

To my American ear, Wally sounds distinctly British, and Waldo doesn't. Maybe the change was made to make the character sound less British to an American audience.

[–]johnsbury 0 points1 point ago

Because the name Wally would remind Americans too much of Walmart, causing them to stop playing and run out in search of cheap Chinese made crappy goods.

[–]welp_that_happened 2 points3 points ago

In death, as in life: right under your nose.

[–]MrGoodbytes 2 points3 points ago

No, it's not about finding his body. "Where's Waldo" is a philosophical quest. It's the existential journey through the metaphysical world to find the meaning of it all.

We know Waldo's dead. He's been dead for a long time. But where is Waldo? Is he the body in the ground? Or is there something more to him?

What if I build a ship named the Dauntless, and it sails for years and years, but eventually the boards of the ship get old? What happens if I replace those boards? Over the years, all the boards of the ship get replaced and it no longer has any of the original pieces. Where is the Dauntless? The ship or the pile of old wood?

Where is Waldo? Is he the body rotting in the ground? Or does he exist beyond that? Within ourselves? In the spirit world? Is his soul resting in the bosom of Abraham or does it live on through reincarnation? Is Waldo an abstract idea that never really existed because it can not be proved to be more than a trickery of the devil? Or possibly this is all just a dream and nothing of it is real? Is Waldo eternal and everlasting as long as we continue to talk about him?

Where's Waldo?

[–]jdang 0 points1 point ago

DAE think that it's incredibly rude to take a picture of someone's gravestone just for the laughs?

[–]unussapiens 0 points1 point ago

No, not really.

[–]thekingofpeas 4 points5 points ago

Wally.

The books are called Where's Wally.

The guys name is Wally.

[–]ChewiestBroom 5 points6 points ago

Where's Wally?, published in the United States and Canada as Where's Waldo?, is a series of children's books created by British illustrator Martin Handford.

TIL.

[–]eventually_i_will 0 points1 point ago

Well... at least we found him.

[–]Ayavaron 1 point2 points ago

All good stories end in gravestones.

[–]Humble_Link_Guy 6 points7 points ago

[–]mackinoncougars 0 points1 point ago

The cake is a lie...you're not sorry.

[–]Jeroknite -2 points-1 points ago

I am sorry I put the cake in your butt, though.

[–]rewere3 0 points1 point ago

He's just throwing you off the trail. He's having a beer with Elvis somewhere right now.

[–]Soupramacist 0 points1 point ago

Guess the sniper found him first

[–]muonicdischarge 1 point2 points ago

Dear god...that book was designed to train children to be snipers!

[–]waldolololol 0 points1 point ago

:(

[–]holy_handsome 0 points1 point ago

We found him just a little too late.

[–]ivealreadyreddit10 0 points1 point ago

But the twist is, Waldo isn't BURIED THERE!

[–]SomeoneCoolerThanYou 0 points1 point ago

They couldn't find him...

[–]firefae83 0 points1 point ago

The casket contains nothing but his books. Unfortunately, they were unable to find the body.

[–]SirDoggyOfDogshire 0 points1 point ago

at least he's not getting away anymore

[–]HaydenB 0 points1 point ago

*Sniffle Found you.....

[–]mgonzo11 0 points1 point ago

He got sad because nobody ever asked how he was. He was very depressed so he committed suicide.

[–]Im_why_Waldos_hiding 0 points1 point ago

He had it coming.

[–]jokey2 0 points1 point ago

Or he is such a badass at hide and seek, we never found him so he dug himself a grave....

[–]sparge 0 points1 point ago

In elementary school, my soccer team had a guy named Waldo. He would often wander off, and then our entire team would yell "Where's Waldo" over and over.

The other team would be perplexed, so we would take advantage of the situation and score.

[–]Svenningen 0 points1 point ago

I'm actually going as zombie-Waldo on halloween!

[–]dom30 0 points1 point ago

Luckily I'm looking for Wally, the search continues!!

[–]theytookourjerbs 0 points1 point ago

Hey! That's Oakland cemetery.

[–]Hydralli 0 points1 point ago

He probably has many graves for us to find the right one!

[–]inquirewue -1 points0 points ago

A disapointing repost

[–]420wasabisnappin 0 points1 point ago

Where is this cemetery?

[–]YOtodaLO -1 points0 points ago

Really, you fucking asshole? You literally just took the words from an extremely popular demotivational poster and used that as the title? Don't be such a karma whore.

[–]ChronikTheory 0 points1 point ago

Found him. Started wearing a sombrero and working nights at Taco Fever. Cheeky bastard.

[–]mysticalpaladin 0 points1 point ago

Tell me about it, i finally found him in a crowd of hipsters before skrillex was popular

[–]pez_candy 0 points1 point ago

Not one of us ever asked 'How' is Waldo. Something we are all going to have to live with.

[–]stephenelfsir1986 0 points1 point ago

Where was this picture taken? I swear to god I saw the exact same grave when I was at a cemetery in Houston, TX.

[–]EnderofDragon 0 points1 point ago

Directed by M. Night Shamalamadingdong

[–]udbluehens 0 points1 point ago

Actually, he was never found, so they declared him dead, and buried a bunch of rocks. But he's out there. Perhaps on the island from Lost or that movie with Tom Hanks.

[–]PenguinDeluxe 0 points1 point ago

Huh. I actually know where this is :P Oakland Cemetery, Atlanta, GA. Also where Bobby Jones and Margaret Mitchell are buried. We took a picture of this same marker this past summer when we were there. Matches up.

[–]fack9gag -1 points0 points ago

I thought it was a good end. But that's because I was searching for /r/pics. And that's where this should have been posted.

[–]danteguido -1 points0 points ago

This is how I felt after the da Vinci code

[–]duhduhduhdiabeetus -2 points-1 points ago

[–]GWARgasm 0 points1 point ago

Tosh.ComedyCentral.com?? HMMMMM I WONDER

[–]zackerrh -3 points-2 points ago

That's not funny

[–]LameSauce22 -1 points0 points ago

DEAR GOD! Why did I take so long to find Waldo?!
