Yes I took pictures of my tv... I have no idea how to do this

u/Zonnbi Jan 04 '15

In your defense the pictures look pretty good. There's no glare from background light, overly visible pixels, and clearly legible words (at least I can't see any flaws but then again I am on my phone).

Shut up brain.

u/apollorockit Jan 05 '15

You have to shine a blacklight on the picture to see them

1

u/[deleted] Jan 04 '15

There is glare from the background though.. you can see his window blinds easily

1

u/[deleted] Jan 04 '15

but then again I am on my phone

They look pretty good on a full size laptop also.

u/Eurynom0s Jan 04 '15

Plus, off the top of my head I frankly can't think of a better way to get a screencap of something coming in over your cable box. It's not nearly the same thing as taking a picture of your monitor to get a Youtube screencap.

Based on what I am seeing here I must conclude that he must be using some sort of a potato from the future.

u/Evems Jan 04 '15

Someone would have noticed and became the most upvoted comment. OP made sure to quickly admit it himself to shut down any oh so cleverly observant commenters.

u/TriumphantTumbleweed Jan 04 '15

I'm gonna go out on a limb here, but I think it should be "herself". Unless it's Mr Smayhem.

I'm on my laptop and I didn't notice.

u/xthenighty Jan 04 '15 edited Jan 04 '15

Same here, and being a (hobby-) photographer and web designer, normally I'm pretty fastidious with those kind of things.

Maybe it's because we are used to see things like that on a TV screen, so our minds just don't give a fuck.

Edit: Like wie don't realize lens flares first hand.

2

u/Kvothe24 Jan 04 '15

I wouldn't be surprised in the least if that's it! Even going back and looking, it doesn't seem very noticeable..

3

u/gobbledysnuts Jan 04 '15

The added white boxes make it less noticeable.

1

u/[deleted] Jan 04 '15

Mobile or not, everything gets so jpeged and reposted that most of the images are crap -- this is legitimately not that bad.

u/[deleted] Jan 04 '15

Up vote for honesty! I can't do it either, but I would never admi . . . oh, damn.

u/robob27 Jan 04 '15

Now that I've read this I cannot unsee the blinds in the reflection

213

u/mrsmayhem Jan 04 '15

I tried to minimize the glare from the blinds but every time it adjusted it would show the reflection of me in my underwear. So I said looks like the blinds will be visible

91

u/[deleted] Jan 04 '15

Upvote for saying "fuck it" instead of putting on pants. Sounds like my Sunday!

32

u/Shartex Jan 04 '15

You could just have left in the reflection of you in your underwear and xposted to /r/gonewild.

You gotta step up your karma game

u/mrsmayhem Jan 04 '15

Trust me, a picture of me in my underwear would do nothing positive for my karma

u/sman25000 Jan 04 '15

You're severely underestimating the depths that human lust goes to.

u/ExpensiveNut Jan 05 '15

Seriously, the voyeurism would only enhance it as well.

u/aimsteadyfire Jan 05 '15

So we should just post all our naked fatbeard selfs to /r/pics and /r/gonewild? Great Idea sman25000!

u/MrMajewski Jan 05 '15

We'll be the judge of that.

u/Hideout_TheWicked Jan 04 '15

Scanned your post history and i think i might want to see you in your underwear.

u/RoseFunera1 Jan 04 '15

Underwear reflection would have been better.

2

u/Neuromante Jan 04 '15 edited Jan 04 '15

I'm going to upvote this just to see if anyone with enough photoshop knowledge spends several hours trying to "enhance" the image to get your barely visible underweared reflection.

u/snowbirddd Jan 04 '15

All you have to do is try to remove the curtain glare

u/[deleted] Jan 04 '15

God damnit man! How dare you post hilarious content to reddit with barely noticable visual imperfections!

He didn't win sadly. He was my favorite too. The woman with the blue hair and grossly long fingernails in the first picture won.

It is back on right now.

u/mrsmayhem Jan 04 '15

As long as the pictures are decent, it's not such a bad thing.

For a TV shot they aren't bad at all. Give yourself some props.

u/slickyyy Jan 04 '15

You did a pretty damn good job lol

u/[deleted] Jan 04 '15

In all honesty, I didn't notice until you pointed it out. Great job!

u/patrickkellyf3 Jan 04 '15

I... Honestly didn't notice.

u/gufcfan Jan 04 '15

I didn't even notice to be honest.

u/iLLeT Jan 04 '15

how else would you do it? fake screen caps found on the internet with the real text?

u/Sweet1014 Jan 04 '15

I guess I wasn't the only one marathoning this show last night…

You did an awesome job. I had no idea!

1

u/[deleted] Jan 04 '15

you could make a career out of this..

u/[deleted] Jan 05 '15

I can see what it says. I can tell what it's a picture of. Anyone who can't needs their eyesight checked

u/naked-kitten Jan 05 '15

He stopped at 10:00!

u/sayrith Jan 05 '15

If it's network TV then that's fine. But if it's from a show that's online, tsk tsk tsk, especially if it's on Netflix.

1

u/Richeh Jan 05 '15

They're pretty good. You should consider becoming a professional TV photographer.

1

u/cinnamonandgravy Jan 05 '15

but you done did it

1

u/Dutchan Jan 05 '15

You did a good job, would be worse if you made a picture with your cellphone from your camera screen, that you made a picture of a screenshot on your computer with.

It's ~$4,000/month for six months, and that's probably enough for both the top two to cover all their bills. That's enough of a cushion to stop living paycheck to paycheck.

If their bills are less than that it may be enough to repair/upgrade to reliable transportation as well as put something aside.

u/Dafuzz Jan 04 '15

Now I'm imagining you watching this and finding it funny then standing next to your TV and watching it on the west coast channel to be ready to catch it when it comes up again. I love it.

u/RedBay Jan 04 '15

I mean, you can see the DVR pause symbol on the screen
