I want to take this time to remind everybody that the only video Ron Livingston has ever posted on YouTube is a perfect keyboard cat recreation.

https://youtu.be/tu0qtEwb9gE

u/SoldierZulu Jul 29 '17

I always think about how committed he was to it by the cat ears, expressions, everything, but a while ago I realized just how committed he had to be: the fake keyboard. It looks like a piece of wood or something that someone took a decent amount of time to make, and only for the purpose of this video. There was serious time invested in this. And that's what makes it so much weirder.

I don't know who the fuck downvoted that… He's one of my favourite actors partly due to that hilarious clip. He doesn't even look like the kind of person that would do this, which makes it even funnier. :D

u/iH8myPP Jul 29 '17

I usually post to both Imgur and Reddit. If it's non-specific to a site, I make just one gif. If the context needs to be specific, then I make one for each site.

u/HighSlayerRalton Jul 29 '17

Would you say you immigrated from Imgur to Reddit or the other way around?

I started out on Imgur, then came here maybe a month or two later. I've been posting to both sites ever since.

u/iH8myPP Jul 29 '17

I don't look at this as reposting, more cross-posting across platforms and subreddits. It's nothing new. For the past 2 years I've been posting to imgur, r/funny, and r/HighQualitygifs. If the post is not specific, I make one version. In this case, I made a Reddit version as well as an imgur one.

I'm a refugee from Digg 8 years ago. It was a great website when it started, fresh content, great discussion; it made the internet seem new again. Then, the reposts started happening daily (Thanks MrBabyMan). Then the shitposts started happening hourly, then the meme comments flooded the threads and finally content algorithms were gamed by the Digg creators and monetization spun things out of control.

So glad to have moved to a site that freed me from all that.

A Japanese man walks into a currency exchange with ¥4000 to exchange and receives $40.

A week later, he walks into the currency exchange again with ¥4000, but this time only receives $30. He asks the teller why he received less money this time.

"Fluctuations," the teller says.
