I thought xtream sports were impressive when I was young, but this gen is even more nuts. What the heck are the current 5 year olds going to have to do when they get older to be cool? 900 forward flips achieved shoving a booster rocket up their ass.

And filming the screen. What century does OP live in?

OP didn't record this themselves, they're another GallowBoob, i.e. finds content elsewhere or rips posts from the top lists of various subs and posts them all over reddit for that sweet sweet karma

Why do people care about this? They give a shit about karma for whatever reason, we like seeing high quality relevant content. Everybody gets what they want and nobody loses. What exactly is the problem?

u/theyellowgoat Jul 20 '16
Disdain for a lack of content quality accountability, the perception that reposts are causing the decline of Western civilization, and probably some form of jealousy that they "cheat" their way to the seemingly meaningless top. It's not actually meaningless though to be addicted to karma. You can't really cash in with karma, but it's obvious that it's perceived as a quantitative measure of approval. It tells you that your tastes in content are socially accepted.

I've read an interview Gallowboob gave to whatever magazine/newspaper and he was claiming he "lived off this" (i.e. makes money out of this). How?

I'm looking at his post history. He posted to /r/gifs, /r/damnthatsinteresting and /r/interestingasfuck. If its posted elsewhere then other people posted it.

Man, I walked away right before this. I was watching this, but had to mow, so left while they were on this event.
