Same. Would be cool for people to post whatever it's referencing, but no one ever does that anyway. :saddowns:

Either way, :five:

Can we make this the new standard please? Post your sources along with your original work to avoid the inevitable wasted posts of those who don't get it, and those who will source it!

With all of these types of threads, everyone always requests this and no one ever does it so we get this cluster gently caress of people empty quoting for a page or so before someone decides to let other people know what it is.

They aren't funny unless you know what they are.

I used real fire, not the fake stuff. So I was worried about my GI Joe figure that I found in a box in my basement that I haven't opened in 20 years. :ohdear:

I sprayed some leaves with WD-40 because they wouldn't burn and it was windy so I was terrified of it blowing into all of the leaves in my lawn and burning my house down.

I did this for you GBS. For you.

I have been restraining myself on requesting someone do a recreation of one of the most famous photographs of the early/mid 20th century, but if I do that I feel like I would have ruined the joke by setting it up.

Welp...... :shrug:






I think I should go take a shower now.

yeah its really stupid


Everyone else seems to disagree in almost every single one of these threads. The images aren't given away. They are spoilered or linked. You have the choice to view it or not.


Don't show the original, and queue 2-3 people laughing and not saying what it is..... then a few people asking what it is and then eventually someone tells them after a few people complain. That's happens every single time and it's a waste because we can all expect that exact same routine.

It's dumb. Show your sources.

Same :( I just found some legos and GI Joes that were packed away in my basement from when I was a child.

Also, post your drat sources people! Just put the link in a spoiler. I hate having to wait for someone to post it in order to laugh. By that time it isn't as funny. :saddowns:

It's much better if other people guess it. Or can't and eventually get helped.

And yeah, definitely re-stickied for good reason! Amazing jobs all around.

Both this and the NIghtmare thing restickied is awesome. They should be there all this month.

The 'I need to figure it out' investigation thing sucks. I want to laugh NOW dammit. Not after some goon discovers why I should laugh. :mad:

Anyway, this is all good. I found a huey model in my basement. Wondering about it.

Not obscure in the least bit. No source required. Certainly makes it funnier to try to find what the picture is.

Doesn't work for any other image, I've tried. Google only got it because of the clock.

Without the source, they're just random images to most people. With the source, either in the post or as a memory, they're funny.

What about that is difficult to understand?

Yeah, this.

So what is the source of the past 10 images or so.

It'd be nice to laugh at some of these.
