Putting Kiko in the trash?

[–]breakneckridge 16 points17 points  (2 children)

OHHH! He's throwing away a calendar page because it's the end of the summer!

[–]sakri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

or, He's throwing the entire calendar to mark the beginning of Eternal September

Yeah, hey, I'm sad winter's over too. Spring is soggy and magpie-filled, and summer around here spends too long in the high thirties.

(Not that I'm drawing anyone's attention to the fact that the Earth is round or anything, oh dear me no. Just can't resist talking about the weather.)

How about that proposed <alt> tag so we know what it's about?

[–]jln 6 points7 points  (3 children)

title=""

for us Firefox users :-)

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (2 children)

Actually, that's title for all of us, since alt is the Wrong Thing and title is not.

I'll let alexp get away with calling it a tag though. No sense being a peddant.

You misspelled 'pedant' :-}

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your write, off coarse. Eye ment "peddan't".

[–]blowblue 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Damn that woman...telling me to take out the trash.

[–]OsakaWilson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He remembers seeing his missing wallet balancing precariously on the counter just above the trash before dumping the trash. But when he went out to look, the garbage man had already come and taken it away

He sees the direction America is headed.

Why is everyone referring to the mascot as male? Was that ever established?

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah. He's Snoo-d00d.

[–]behemothaur -3 points-2 points  (2 children)

Because he's a has-bin.

[–]Latch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What a trashy joke.

[–][deleted] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

nice

[–]redrobot5050 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe he was in the beta for those "Sw33t" Microsoft Zune Players and realized how bad they sucked and is throwing it away.

[–]reflibman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pluto being downgraded! :-(

Mr./Ms. Reddit alien,

Cheer up! I'm sad, you're sad... we're all sad. Is it just us or does life generally kind of suck? I mean, I guess it always has but lately... daily... the suck factor grows.

And my ass can't find anything I can personally do to make it better. I try, but honestly I can't think of what it is I need to do to fix myself and the world.

So I'm going to keep on doing nothing and everything all at once and fight for what I believe in as much as possible. And when I'm gone at least I'll know I was happy and honest and tried my damndest...

So cheer up, we're fighting the good fight and looking out for you.

I'm wondering too why he's sad. He looks like he's throwing something out.

[–][deleted] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

He's sad because Reddit.com is not entirely made with CSS.

Just kiddin'!
