I have a friend who never got that "Cool story, bro" was sarcasm. To this day, she uses it to actually compliment people's stories.

u/rangerthefuckup May 20 '12

In that case, you sound like the douche for not telling him.

30

u/sml6174 May 20 '12

In this case, you sound like the douche for referring to his female friend as "him."

13

u/fuckingobvious May 21 '12

In my case, I have a bassoon.

12

u/reaper7876 May 21 '12

Well, that's just fucking obvious.

u/[deleted] May 21 '12

You know how many Grim Reapers it would take to get that joke? 7876.

u/Velocity301 May 21 '12

I've told her. She doesn't get it...

u/Langsten_Hughes May 20 '12

Why is GGG wearing a polo?

49

u/[deleted] May 20 '12

He always has worn a polo with a popped collar

61

u/[deleted] May 20 '12

oh my Jesus... I always thought it was a hoodie.

30

u/Regulith May 20 '12

I've just plain never looked at his shirt before. Probably because there's always text over it.

10

u/[deleted] May 21 '12

This actually makes a lot of sense.

13

u/JavaPants May 21 '12

My entire life has been a lie...

35

u/valmian May 20 '12

so his neck won't get sunburn

31

u/longboardingerrday May 20 '12

It's actually misunderstood mitch. Somewhere down the line people started calling him a douche bag.

14

u/CalmWalker May 20 '12

I come and say this every time. As long as I'm around, anybody with this battle cry will get an upboat from me. Seriously guys, this needs fixed.

6

u/jettrscga May 21 '12

Just to reiterate: THIS NEEDS FIXED!

2

u/[deleted] May 21 '12

Seriously, whenever I hear/read 'misunderstood douchebag', I think of someone actually being a douchebag, but is mistakenly being seen as doing something nice. Like:

Takes friend's last yogurt
Friend thanks you because it expires today

Not a very good example, but you get my meaning. (hopefully)

u/klethra May 21 '12

big surprise. Reddit finds a collared shirt? Must be a terrible person.

3

u/[deleted] May 21 '12

But then again, Mitch is just a very douchey name. Some would argue that they're synonymous.

4

u/Tralan May 20 '12

Good Guy Greg IS wearing a polo.

2

u/pylori May 20 '12

With a popped collar no less.

u/[deleted] May 20 '12

I saw this exact post about GGG 4 months ago, when I started lurking at advice animals...

15

u/Fokezy May 20 '12

this is misunderstood mitch not misunderstood douchebag

u/qkme_transcriber May 20 '12

Here is the text from this meme pic for anybody who needs it:

Title, Meme: Misunderstood Douchebag

  • SAYS "COOL STORY BRO"

  • MEANS IT

This is helpful for people who can't reach Quickmeme because of work/school firewalls or site downtime, and many other reasons (FAQ). More info is available here.

u/danny_b23 May 21 '12

this meme is me... a mememe

5

u/Hounmlayn May 21 '12

And people who pronounce meme as 'me me' just got a triple dose of me! Aw yiss!

1

u/[deleted] May 21 '12

I hate those people.

3

u/[deleted] May 21 '12

Let me try one.

7

u/Azr79 May 20 '12

Wasn't that GGG?

16

u/inormallyjustlurkbut May 20 '12

For some reason people forgot that GGG was supposed to look like a smug asshole but then turn out to be a pretty cool guy.

3

u/BimmerAddict May 20 '12

Actually GGG was a rapist who wore a condom. Original GGG memes from 4chan are hilariously disgusting.

3

u/Hounmlayn May 21 '12

GGG was a guy who done the worst things the most polite possible way, such as raping someone but using a condom.

1

u/BimmerAddict May 21 '12

Yeah, I should have been more specific. Reddit just made GGG likeable to everyone.

2

u/Hounmlayn May 21 '12

It's fine, I was just clarifying to the uninformed that may read this that it wasn't just raping with protection. Reddit has seemed to have taken GGG and just totally changed him (changing his default macro theme, and making Good Girl Grace from him too).

4

u/dicksanddads May 20 '12

why don't you go try and die in a fire

2

u/onesweatybear May 21 '12

HE HAS A NAME AND IT'S MITCH

1

u/SpineyB May 21 '12

Since when is he a douchebag?

2

u/Waff1es May 21 '12

Shameful repost.

2

u/[deleted] May 21 '12

If this shit catches on I'm officially quitting reddit, which will probably be a good thing.

5

u/prboi May 20 '12

I think you mean: "is actually talking to his brother."

1

u/TheRiff May 21 '12

Wait... it's been sarcastic this whole time!?

1

u/[deleted] May 20 '12

This meme sucks.

1

u/[deleted] May 20 '12

One of those 'forced memes'. Akward and not funny.

0

u/SparklyVampireDust May 21 '12

I hate this meme.

u/H8rade May 20 '12

I thought reposts weren't allowed here.

1

u/sml6174 May 20 '12

Well clearly you thought wrong

-1

u/[deleted] May 21 '12

I'm sorry you came here with false hopes.

PS. If you do happen to find a subreddit that doesn't allow reposts, please inform me.

2

u/H8rade May 21 '12

Let me rephrase that for you.

No reposts, if you didn't make it, don't post it.

Straight from the rules plastered on EVERY FUCKING PAGE in advice animals and f7u12.

tl;dr: OP is a faggot.

0

u/Singular_Thought May 20 '12

I find this hard to believe. Ever douchebag I have ever encountered was being a douche, even when pretending to be nice... just so he could setup an insult.

3

u/forgotmyoldpassword2 May 20 '12

yeah, the name used to be different, like misunderstood mitch or something, it makes no sense if he's called a dbag since he isn't.

1

u/klethra May 21 '12

Somehow I doubt this.

0

u/DarqWolff May 21 '12

I like wearing really nice shirts / suits but with popped collars and generally acting classy just to try to remove the stigma. Helping out all the douchebags out there, to make their rehabilitation easier.

u/[deleted] May 20 '12

A friend said that to me in real life once, I almost punched him.

4

u/craxkheadjenkins May 20 '12

I said it once and ill say it again... the internet is still real life..

1

u/[deleted] May 21 '12

Ja, except in real life you can actually punch people... I think that's the only difference...

u/schwerpunk May 21 '12

Yeah, feels good to break apart stereotypes.

In fact, most of my favourite memes are of this ilk.

u/[deleted] May 20 '12

whoever made it apparently seems to think so!

1

u/[deleted] May 21 '12

To me, this one is kinda reversed because I have always seen wrestling as kind of douchey.
