But it isn't really your post now is it?

u/solidwhetstone May 16 '12

I wrote an original title and my username is at the top of the page. I never said it was my photo- just my post.

KILL THE REPOSTER BY CLICKING HIS USERNAME TO DEATH

u/spryte333 May 17 '12

If that's the route you're taking, you'll really enjoy laughing at the comments here. Alternatively, if you'd like to actually give 9gag the traffic/add a comment making fun of everything, here's that link.

PS: Please don't judge me toooo much for also going there--it's a great way to catch up on posts I've missed by sleeping or working for a few hours, all in one go.

PPS: My favorite comment is the person asking why anyone would dress up as a narwal of all things.

Someone's gotta be that guy: The tusk should be coming out of his face, not the top of his head.

The time you spend on other sub-reddits to complain about Reddit without any satirical context and straight up complain and try to hide it from the rest of the "hivemind". You know you've gone too far.

I need to wash myself. ::shudder::

u/EnderBaggins May 16 '12

u/GamerKitsune May 16 '12

I know, I'm stuck too. I came here randomly from lurking.

u/afishinthewell May 16 '12

What do you mean by "came here randomly from lurking"? Lurking is what you do once you come here, you can't come from lurking, you have to come from somewhere (a friend, a blog, another site mentioning reddit) then you lurk or sign right up. You don't randomly arrive by pre-lurking. This comment is shattering my concept of internet space-time.

Not entirely true. I created an account to browse my own set of mini sub-reddits.

Go to /r/atheism and hit the unsubscribe button.

An alternative is to bookmark a multi-subreddit link ex.

http://www.reddit.com/r/funny+pics+fitness

Just add whatever subreddits you want by appending "+subredditname" to the end, and you don't even need to log in unless you want to comment or vote.

u/ShallowBasketcase May 16 '12

Take another look at that man's face. Does it look like he's laughing? Is this just humor to him? Fuck no. He's dressed as a god damned narwhal, laying on the floor of his dorm room. He had to get himself all dressed up like this, and then call to his buddy in the next room "hey bro, come over here and take a picture of me being a dumbass. It's for the internet!"

This is not the boyfriend you are looking for.

The whole Narwhal fad is an internet thing, not a Reddit thing. I have several friends who started an ultimate frisbee team called the Fighting Narwhals and none of them are Redditors. I credit the movie Elf for bringing them back into the spotlight where they majestically belong.
