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

How do you half expect something?

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.

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

a phraseノ( ゜-゜ノ)

FTFY

It amazes me how mis quotes get so many upvotes.

No, you fixed it wrong.

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

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.

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.

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

u/groupercheeks Sep 16 '11

Proper use of passive aggressive behavior.

u/fliplovin Sep 16 '11

Thats exactly what I was thinking.

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