It would seem that the community has spoken!
Henceforth, /r/Pics will only allow images of John Oliver looking sexy.
What I love about this is that it’s exactly the kind of thing he’d talk about on his show, which would be hilarious and also add more exposure the the whole thing.
Can’t wait to see him respond to it. Maybe he will post a couple of saucy pics on the subreddit himself to contribute?
I predict a show segment where he does a bikini photoshoot for Sports Illustrated.
I don’t like linking to Twitter, but John Oliver acknowledged it and tweeted some photos for Redditers to use: https://twitter.com/iamjohnoliver/status/1670179738348933120?t=58hT7Y7ZMhwZ37CIxgeRdg&s=19
He’s already tweeted about it and gave some photos for people to use: https://twitter.com/iamjohnoliver/status/1670179738348933120?t=58hT7Y7ZMhwZ37CIxgeRdg&s=19
This is epic. Trolling level 10. Spez wanted to force them to reopen, so they did, but burned the subreddit. I can’t wait for r/gaming to be only about ping pong, or r/videos to be only cat videos.
You can not force a community. And Spez has unintentionally created a community, just one that hates him.
I feel like /r/videos only being cat videos would still make it a worthwhile sub. Make it so that any videos shared that are above 240p are against the rules and subject to be automatically deleted.
/r/videos should become self posts only to discuss retro video formats, like betamax vs. VHS.
Hold on… Are there any OTHER types of John Oliver images?
John Oliver is a California Ten.
Edit: John Oliver talking about a Steve Mnuchin clip: “Now, I know it was hard to pay attention to what he was saying, because you were just automatically undressing the guy with your eyes and you do it whenever he opens his mouth. Am I right? I’m definitely right. The guy’s a California Ten, He’s a smokeshow.” https://youtu.be/RKjk0ECXjiQ?t=643
Brilliant. I look forward to John Oliver’s episode on capitalist social media companies like Twitter and Reddit fucking their userbase
The one downside to the writer’s strike (that I’ve so far since there was a lot of content banked) is all the late night comedians’ missed opportunities. Of course, I fully support the writers. I hope they get everything they are asking for so that we can get back to watching the amazing stuff they produce!
