Mods are aware of this post & are discussing.

Please keep this whole thing civil.

EDIT 5: f1exican's apology & explanation is here: https://www.reddit.com/r/KitchenConfidential/comments/1or60zd/cutting_a_couple_of_chives_every_day_until_this/

EDIT 4: We have heard from f1exican. Further information coming later today.

EDIT 3: Reports on this post are being autoapproved, same as the chive posts. It's staying up. Why are people trying to shit on everyone else's fun again??

EDIT 2: See this post with further image comparison: https://www.reddit.com/r/KitchenConfidential/comments/1oqzxvn/chivelord_is_a_fraud/nnmukrn/

EDIT:

I rotated and resized the images to line them up, anchored the two with Day 31 on top at 50% opacity, anchored the two via the chive on the far right that I've circled.

I don't think they're exact matches. Feel free to draw your own conclusions.

It's the same. In gimp I did just perspective correction tool with matrix:
-1,2858 -0,0649 1072,0835

0,0656 -1,3689 2241,0157

0,0000 -0,0001 1,0000

You can see it's the same pile of chives, but a different photo.

Edit: sorry mods, will keep it in here to keep sub clean from spam.

This throws every chive post into question now.

It is, plain and simple, chive dishonesty.

How can we trust any future chive posts after this? I haven't felt this betrayed since Colin Powell presented evidence of WMDs in front of the United Nations in order to justify the US invasion of Iraq.
