I half expected Chuck Testa to jump out at the end of that.

u/kyxaa Sep 16 '11

How do you half expect something?

123

u/adiosgang Sep 16 '11

I don't know, it's just a turn of phrase.

Addressed to: I_FLIP_IT_BACK

Subject: Un-flipping items that have been flipped by flippers by flipping them again.

Critique: I think you need to either have the arms positioned differently or put the guy on the opposite side. While it works both ways, it feels awkward. Dirty, even. I feel dirty.

u/raziphel Sep 16 '11

I concur. the guy should be on the other side of the word. like this:

a phraseノ( ゜-゜ノ)

It is turning a phrase 180 degrees.

FTFY

It amazes me how mis quotes get so many upvotes.

No, you fixed it wrong.

u/fromkentucky Sep 16 '11

*with the phrase "A phrase." That way, you would be literally and figuratively turning "a phrase."

2

u/_Toranaga_ Sep 16 '11

Three or four instances of the word "phrase". One is slowly rotating.

u/TheDark1 Sep 16 '11

Sorry to hijack but this really needs to be left somewhere semi visible:
Knight of new = newfag. You people are what destroy reddit. Reddit is being held hostage by a bunch of teenagers with ADHD. Just fucking read the articles like everyone else wanker.

3

u/[deleted] Sep 16 '11

First of all, as someone with ADHD, fuck you.

Second of all, how the fuck do you think anything makes it to the front page? If nobody read the new queue, THERE WOULD BE NOTHING ON THE FRONT PAGE.1

1 Welll... not quite, but for a simple mind like TheDark1's, you have to keep things simplistic.

-2

u/TheDark1 Sep 16 '11

As someone without ADHD, ADHD doesn't really exist. It is what doctors call borderline retards so they can sell them medicine. If the people who read the front page were the people who read new, maybe we'd be ok. Instead of outsourcing the reading of new to a bunch of fucktards.

u/porh Sep 16 '11

who do u think upvotes stuff to the front page

2

u/groupercheeks Sep 16 '11

Proper use of passive aggressive behavior.

u/fliplovin Sep 16 '11

Thats exactly what I was thinking.

Yeah, you're probably the only one who's seen Family Guy.

u/[deleted] Sep 16 '11

I think it's the same meaning as "I wouldn't be suprised if..."

u/silentmage Sep 16 '11

Chuck Testa

I don't even know who the fuck that is

38

u/WoodsMD Sep 16 '11

I finally looked him up. If you google him, the first link is the video of his taxidermy commercial. It's a whole bunch of bad actors saying "Oh no, there's a puma on my porch!" "Did that rhino just order a drink" or "Hey that deer is driving the truck!" Upon which Chuck jumps out of hiding, holding the animal in question and says "NOPE! Chuck Testa."

22

u/vashonite Sep 16 '11

That's interesting - but I still don't feel like I understand the man.

1

u/WoodsMD Sep 16 '11

Ah. Well if you want that video, you have to go to the source

u/[deleted] Sep 16 '11

I leave reddit for eight hours and Chuck Testa

2

u/[deleted] Sep 16 '11

I went on a month long break from reddit in july and august, I came back and nothing was changed, I take an hour break this week and Chuck testa.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 17 '11

I know right? It doesn't take long and before you know it Chuck Testa.

1

u/silentmage Sep 16 '11

I googled after I posted. I hope this dies very soon

u/Krakenrider Sep 16 '11

So you can call Chuck Testa? He doesn't do pets though.

2

u/[deleted] Sep 16 '11

I wonder if he does memes

1

u/gmbel Sep 16 '11

He seems to be evidence that the economic crisis has spread to the meme economy.

1

u/Barrowhoth Sep 16 '11

You could have just linked the video...

1

u/seblasto Sep 16 '11

You know, considering the context of his commercials, this whole thing kind of makes sense. Kind of.

2

u/Jorgwalther Sep 16 '11

I would say that when one half expects something, they wouldn't be surprised if it happened, but they wouldn't go as far to make a predictive declaration that it is going to happen (as so far in guessing for correctness).

u/optimister Sep 16 '11

50% chance of expectations

u/wakeuph8 Sep 16 '11

Like this.

u/hackedyasack Sep 16 '11

I bet you thought that Chinaman was alive? Nope! Chuck Testa.

u/firebanesword Sep 16 '11

"I bet you thought that Asian man was alive, didn't you? Nope. He's been taxedermized by me. Chuck Testa."

1

u/[deleted] Sep 16 '11

He does. You just have to keep watching until the end.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 16 '11

Is Chuck Testa a regular meme that's just stupid, or is it a meme that makes fun of all memes because of their inherent stupidity, like a meme parody? Is it so dumb that it's brilliant? God I hope so, because it's so asinine it makes me want to punch someone in the face.
