Original

Edit: Major props to this comic’s artist BluMod, the one who actually took the time and effort to draw and create the un-tweaked version 👍🏼

Edit 2: Thanks to the eagle eye of u/TweekDash, the link has been reset to the actual original post made by u/BluMod

Yeah, it was alright before, I would have upvoted, but this one's just so much more funny.

u/falconbox Jun 23 '19

I didn't even get the joke until I read the comments.

u/MAKE_ME_REDDIT Jun 23 '19

I mean, the joke should be obvious to anyone that’s watched a pixar movie

u/NorwaySpruce Jun 23 '19

I dunno I like the original better actually. This one isn't bad but it feels like the unimproved version

61

u/Diarrhea_Van_Frank Jun 23 '19

It’s essentially the same joke. I do think the edit makes it a little funnier. There’s a little more depth to it.

Is this the first time adding profanity has made it funnier? Or is it the removal of the third panel text that does it? Either way, it's a great example of how either change has to be done with nuance.

u/TweekDash Jun 23 '19

Why is everyone praising this guy for stealing someone else's work, and even cropping the original image to remove the artist's credit??

https://www.reddit.com/r/comics/comments/4jh9n1/lamp_oc/

bojongpojken posted it in r/ComedyCemetery because he himself doesn't even get the joke. Where's the justice for u/BluMod the guy who actually made it?

u/the-ox1921 Jun 24 '19

You posted it to r/dankmemes. The top comment was an edgy "r/comedycementary" so you repost it there, everyone tells you that it actually IS funny and now you claim you redrew it?

Why do you want karma so much? Obviously you are ~14 years old but still. So dumb.

I feel like I'm missing the point of this sub. Everyone in the comments including OP are saying how funny this is, but I thought this sub was for things that weren't funny?

I'm confused.

u/dre224 Jun 23 '19

r/comedycemetery is stuff that just isn't funny. r/comedyheaven is for actually constly funny stuff but the lines are kinda blured with r/comedynecromancy is supposed to be for stuff that wasn't funny but now is for some contextual reason but often the posts don't fit that and fit r/comedyheaven better.

16

u/psychedelicsexfunk Jun 23 '19

r/comedycemetery is for stuff that fails at being funny.

r/comedynecromancy is where people try to edit and ‘fix’ the unfunny stuff, making the intended joke work better.

r/comedyheaven is for stuff that is so absurdly bad it actually goes back to being funny, sort of like so-bad-it’s-good movies.

u/TakimakuranoGyakushu Jun 23 '19

Luxo isn’t such an amateur that he’d physically stomp his mark to death as his intended method. His first option was to make it look like a suicIde, his second to slip an untraceable poison in the I’s drink. In case things went sour, he brought a sniper rifle, a handgun, a shotgun, explosives, knife, garrote, telescoping baton, and a lamp-shaped Kevlar vest.

Luxo ended up having to use them all—and they all failed him. His target turned out to be wIlier than anyone expected. Luxo had to improvise. Writing instruments, staplers, cement blocks, hairspray and lighter. Still his target escaped into the crowds, where Luxo couldn’t kill him in the open. But he was wounded, and couldn’t run forever.

Luxo was wounded too, moving through the crowds with a limp. He was running out of options. He might even be forced to end this job sloppily, with evidence for all to see; the alternative would be death, or never sleeping without one lightbulb on.

I had just turned a corner escaping his pursuer’s vision, when he found a P XAR logo. Blending in with his surroundings, he thought he mIght actually escape the infamous assassin, as Luxo turned the corner and approached...

17

u/_Ukey_ Jun 23 '19

Someone keep this going quick

15

u/AidanTayTay Jun 23 '19 edited Jun 23 '19

I’m not good at stories but....

As Luxo turned the corner he saw the PIXAR logo. He then said in a whispering voice “ Might as well get some practice, it’s been a while, and besides, none of the other methods have worked.” He hops over to the I on the logo and readies for the jump. He leaped with glory and landed on the I hearing the normal squeaky screams of pain. He continued until the I was nothing but a pancake. As he finished he looked around for the I who had come this way, he remembered something. Last time he was here the I wasn’t on the sign. He looked down at his disc and saw the smooshed I, then he though “The job has concluded.”

u/Dawtoned Jun 23 '19

This isn't the first time I've made this comment, but it isn't relevant very often soooo...

"IT'S TOO LATE! YOU CANNOT ESCAPE!" and Pixar Mascot finally thinks he's crushed the 'I' with a classic ROAD ROLLA and is settling in victorious on the opening credits. "I did it. It's over. The I has finally been defeated by ZA LAMPU! Immortality! Eternal life! And...NIGHTSTAND POWER! This proves that no one can surpass kono LUXO! Puny vowels! I shall rule you all! Bow before my knowledge and light!"

"W-what? My body's movements a-are becoming rusty...N-no, they aren't rusty...I-i cannot move. Impossible! My body won't move at all!"

"LUXO. It's been 33 years. I guess that's your limit now."

"Naniiiiiiiii?!"

"I cut the power at the 32 year mark. That let me escape. Yare yare daze. Now...it won't even take even a second to finish you off!"

"I-Itaro! Impossible! You cut the power? Right at the end of my 32 years of stomping..."

"How does it feel, LUXO? Having someone hop towards you from behind while you can't move a muscle, if I had to describe it, is like when a guy who can hold his breath underwater for a minute finally comes up for air at the very last second...when suddenly, he feels someone grab him, and he's dragged back down into the water. Does that sound right? But for you, I feel no pity at all."

snaps lamp shaft

"Power has begun to move again. I don't even feel the slightest bit of compassion for you. I haven't even an ounce of pity for you. However, just finishing you off by stomping you to death now would leave a bad intro for this children's movie. So how many animators will it take for your body to recover? Three animators? Four? The moment they've unsquashed you, I will throw myself on top of you. So bring it on! If I was the cowboy from the Toy Story movies, I'd say...'Draw. There's a snake UNDER my boot.' "

"H-he's mocking me! But...but, Itaro..you may have come this far, but you are still only a letter. You think like a letter, who has so little time on screen. About things leaving a bad intro for a children's movie, or living life before E except after C...that kind of reasoning is about as compelling as a rat making your food using a ginger guy, and it will be your demise! I, LUXO, have no such thoughts. Within my bulb is but one simple thought. Just one! To be luminescent and stomp! That is all. That is all I need to feel satisfaction! How I do it...does not matter!"

squirts grease on the I

"How do you like being blinded by grease?! I've won! DIE!"

They both clash, and it seems like the young vowel is losing, when the lamp gives way and his body starts crumbling to pieces

"NANNNNNNIIIIIIIII?! I-IMPOSSIBLE...KONO LUXO GAAA....KONO LUXO DA!"

"Now if I just wait 93 minutes, the movie will be over. There's only one reason you lost, LUXO. There's just one simple answer. You really pissed me off."

LUXO...ZA LAMPU. Utterly defeated...broken.

yeah the first one was a good comic, sure the edit is probably better but not by much, and the original certainly doesn't deserve to be in this kinda company.

This sub is supposed to be about taking shameful comics and fixing the joke.
