It would seem that the community has spoken!
Henceforth, /r/Pics will only allow images of John Oliver looking sexy.
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.
This is quite literally one of the funniest things I have seen. Absolute genius move.
Absolutely based, r/Steam is pics of Steam engines and such right now. r/wellthatsucks is pics of vacuum cleaners iirc
r/interestingasfuck is now an NSFW sub with hairy buttholes.
Why was Jonh Oliver chosen?
I don’t know him and his relation with Reddit, I think I might need some context XD
He usually responds well to weird stuff like this and there’s a chance he’ll mention it on his show.
He’s a comedian with a great show on HBO (or whatever it’s called this week.) Look up some of the segments on YouTube.
Gotta make sure John sees this…
He’s seen it and has provided some photos to use: https://twitter.com/iamjohnoliver/status/1670179738348933120?t=58hT7Y7ZMhwZ37CIxgeRdg&s=19
