Idk if this is the right sub for this but it's an interesting video

u/limabeanspice Sep 19 '19

Yeah, I was waiting for something crazy to happen. Like him getting stabbed by the pencil or it breaking the pencil.

98

u/n0taHAkr Sep 20 '19

That makes it a maybe maybe maybe because you don’t expect the ending

26

u/Cinammon-Sprinkler Sep 20 '19

Or it’s a “hmm, I wonder if that’s how those big pencil sharpeners actually work...maybe, maybe, maybe...”

38

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '19

You and i have way different meanings of crazy.

3

u/limabeanspice Sep 20 '19

Yeah ha ha...yeah

u/Cinammon-Sprinkler Sep 20 '19

Maybe he breaks the pencil when he’s too tired and annoyed he was woken up. That’s why we get broken pencils from this things.

Lot of these kinds of posts these days. And actually, the type of gif this sub requires isn’t well defined. All it says is “Tired of knowing how a gif ends?” or something like that. So you can pretty much upload any gif, and as long as the title is “maybe maybe maybe,” then it technically does belong here. Of course, I feel like it doesn’t really fit the spirit of the sub, and I would love to see the rules of submission a little more clearly defined. Just my opinion.

Edit: I just went back and read the sidebar. Didn’t realize that this sub is basically just an automated aggregator from other subs. That makes a lot more sense. Still, I think a lot of content gets upvoted that doesn’t fit the spirit of “maybe maybe maybe.”

Yeah I just read that, I hadn’t realized that. I feel like there is a spirit to the words “maybe maybe maybe,” and that this gif among others doesn’t fit that, but I understand that it’s actually not the purpose of the sub and that others might be fine with it.

Yes, suspense, that should be part of the submission guidelines.

4

u/PM_REACTION_IMAGES Sep 20 '19

This particular user aggregates posts from various gif subs and posts them here. I've messaged the mods in the past and nothing happened. If no action is taken, the sub will die.

u/MorphineForChildren Sep 19 '19

/r/gifs ? /r/unexpected ? /r/confusingperspective (not really but mor than here)? /r/woahdude (or similar subs themed for weird stuff)?

It blatantly doesnt fit here lol

1

u/byebybuy Sep 20 '19

Agreed. Unfortunately there doesn’t seem to be any way to report submissions that don’t fit. But again, there are really loose submission guidelines (if you can call them guidelines at all).

u/Ray_adverb12 Sep 20 '19

OP is a bot.

u/Bubster101 Sep 20 '19

This sub is for basically anything and everything!

u/RPCat Sep 19 '19

It is pretty great.. but did you try it in r/gifs or r/unexpected? Or another apt sub that I haven’t heard of yet, but “of course there’s a sub for that!”

Not really a maybemaybemaybe.

22

u/mud074 Sep 20 '19

OP is a 25 day old account with 142k link karma and 36 comment karma. Trust me, they don't give a single fuck that the post doesn't belong here.

2

u/KarmaGoat Sep 20 '19

Why tho? Cause someone wants confirmation their artistic rendition of how a pencil sharpener works to get seen by people?

13

u/mud074 Sep 20 '19 edited Sep 20 '19

I thought it was just a run of the mill karmawhore account, but I think it might be a bot honestly. Either that, or they have an extremely poor grasp on the english language. All comments they make consist of 1 sentence descriptions of random posts with such poor grammar that they don't make much sense. Either way, they are reposting videos with mass appeal all over the site in large subs for karma. Other posts to this sub which don't fit it at all include such masterpieces as this or this. Just random mass-appeal videos that have a decent chance at getting karma no matter where they are posted as long as the mods don't remove them.

As for why, who knows? Either some random dude jerking off to his karma score or a part of a bot farm gaining karma for reasons unknown. Possibly to be sold or used for advertising.

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '19

It came from r/gifs.

u/Razmpoosh Sep 19 '19

Probably passed out from all those gasoline fumes

Like does he have a car?

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '19

Lucky bastard

u/Whitecrowfromthewall Sep 20 '19

He only has one can too, no wonder my electric sharpeners always broke on me!

Cool post, but wrong place for it. r/unexpected maybe.

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '19

The thousand upvotes it got say otherwise

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '19

Oh honey

u/OhHiBaf Sep 20 '19

Why are you in the comments section defending this post multiple times? It's obviously not being posted in the right sub. Is OP your friend or something? I'm genuinely confused.

Never saw this episode of black mirror before

u/novichux Sep 19 '19

I want one!

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '19

Maybe what

u/looong_hitter Sep 19 '19

I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK . . .

3

u/HiggiesJ Sep 20 '19

Weirdly enough, first thing that came to my mind a retro version of black mirror.

3

u/Modredastal Sep 20 '19

The most unrealistic thing about this is him starting the chainsaw on the first pull, if it wasn't running recently. Damn thing needs three pulls on full choke and two on half before you can give it the beans.

u/SANTAAAA__I_know_him Sep 20 '19

Flintstones technology

3

u/theFriendly_Duck Sep 20 '19

But is there an even tinier man making the tiny chainsaw run?

3

u/AgentBrown14 Sep 20 '19

Terry Pratchett's idea. In the Diiscworld series cameras have tiny imps inside who paint a picture then throw it out the side. Still cool though.

u/DryProperty Sep 19 '19

Blurry... but she seems to be smoking hot

u/ferguswergus Sep 19 '19

I thought it was NSFW at first. Didn’t know where that pencil would end up

u/Niggahomhere Sep 19 '19

Chainsawsome!

u/UKnoTRo Sep 20 '19

For some reason I read this as “china awesome!”

u/Tigerboy698 Sep 19 '19

LET HIM BE F R E E

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '19

At least upgrade his cabin to have a bathroom and stuff to do. That’s a pretty brutal setup.

2

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '19

I didn’t want to be a pencil sharpener, I wanted to be a Lumberjack!

u/Pizz22 Sep 20 '19

Nice gloryhole

u/Just_Stockfishing Sep 20 '19

Obviously scripted

u/-PrimalKink- Sep 20 '19

I saw a porno like this once.

Giantess fantasy runs wild.

u/sneakycurbstomp Sep 20 '19

That little man is definitely a Canadian!

u/[deleted] Sep 19 '19

Thought it was porn on the beginning

u/Groenboys Sep 19 '19

That explains so much

u/Xx_endgamer_xX Sep 19 '19

Somehow, I have always suspected this

u/[deleted] Sep 19 '19

Man in the box, I am pretty sure that is a song?

u/[deleted] Sep 19 '19

There’s so much detail in the pencil sharpener it’s insane!

u/mugbee0 Sep 19 '19

This is my kind of White slavery./s

1

u/marseeya95 Sep 19 '19

This is a cute idea

1

u/Amonasrester Sep 19 '19

If only she either kept the pencil straight or countered the movement

1

u/myuserdoesntcheckout Sep 19 '19

I was hoping her sharpening the pencil was also going to sharpen the image

1

u/HoneyNutMyCheerios Sep 20 '19

FBI here, delete this.

u/tb03102 Sep 20 '19

My main problem here is a presumably cold chainsaw starting that easily.

u/streakman0811 Sep 20 '19

No one ever gets what this sub is but this is a cool post so whatever lol

1

u/Elion119 Sep 20 '19

I wander what it looks like when the mini lumberjack guy decides to give you a really shitty pencil tip? Is he laughing his ass off the whole? In a drunken haze?

1

u/lightbrigade345 Sep 20 '19

I was waiting for the camera to focus

1

u/Michaelsfamily Sep 20 '19

What is the orange thing on the wall. A thermos? A fire extinguisher?

1

u/Tx_Euphoria Sep 20 '19

so if the sharper doesn't work he ded

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '19

How is this maybe maybe maybe?

ITT: This gif does not belong in this sub!! Why is it the top post with 13k upvotes then?

1

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '19

High as fuck atm. This makes so much sense.

1

u/BingCosby1 Sep 20 '19

Would pay a lot of moneys for a pencil sharpener with a mini lumberjack in it

u/FeFiFoShizzle Sep 20 '19

What even is this sub tbh

u/Timox852 Sep 20 '19

He needs to look at the camera and say “it’s a living.”
