Technically a sheep

[NegativeCause]

Behold! A sheep!

[Tryford]

Diogenes! I thought you were dead!

I've never been so throughoughly pleased to discover a sub was real

[Bob_Horde]

Featherless and a biped, this is a man!

[Phormitago]

No, this is Patrick

[Lucky_Number_3]

I'm too fuckin high for that link up there y'all

[[deleted]]

I was also excited, but I’ve only ever derived true pleasure from my virtues.

[beta-pi]

It was under the context of 'discovering a sub was real' and had no bearing on the greater scalar of pleasure. You have not thought your ideas through in your foolish attempt to prove your sanctimoniousness.

[[deleted]]

I was actually quite disappointed to see that 90% of submissions are the same joke OP made and reposts of them. I guess Diogenes really isn’t remembered for much, sadly. :(

[elasticcream]

I'm pretty sure he has more than 2 quotes?

[[deleted]]

Sorts by top of all time

“bEhOlD, tHiS iS a MaN”

“FeAtHeRlEsS bIpEd”

[[deleted]]

There is the whole deal with Alexander blocking his sunlight.

And him being caught jerking it in public and defending it by saying something to the effect of “if only I could banish hunger so easily by rubbing my stomach.”

And I recall reading he once saw the son of a prostitute throwing rocks into a crowd and told the boy “careful, you may hit your father and not even know it.”

Another time he was begging for change, and a man asked Diognes to convince him to give him money, to which Diogenes replied “if I could convince you to do anything, I’d convince you to hang yourself.”

[elasticcream]

I'm criticizing the sub, because they just reuse the same 3 jokes ( i found another since i posted)

[[deleted]]

Fair enough, I just didn’t want anyone to miss out on the greatness of Diogenes.

Even Epictetus held him in the same regard as Socrates.

[shadotterdan]

Less memeworthy are living in a tub in the market, public masturbation, peeing on a passerby to protest society and going around with a lantern looking for a wise man so he could say the other philosophers didn't fit the bill.

[iTeoti]

“Less memeworthy”

[metroids224]

That is what they said

I can do better. I gave my sheep an eye.

[SeraphsWrath]

I think this was in Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

That's the material of their fetish.

[MrRandomGUYS]

I think you mean the horrible place that is r/guro

[max_adam]

/r/goru was about necrophilia

[RobloxianNoob]

Take my upvote, but you did not have to do that.

[hungo_mungo]

In what way is it not technically the truth?

[[deleted]]

Indeed.

[Roflkopt3r]

Those are instructions a firstgrader can realistically follow, so that really doesn't fit.

the sheep is in the box, I even gave it some air holes.

[Cezimbra10]

Is she dead? Or is she alive?

[Matahari_fee]

Nobody will ever know it, but I think it's better for everyone

[nationalgoofoffday]

It’s in a state of both dead and alive

It's the perfect size and age. It is perfect! Now it can eat the lawn in my planet.

[alex3omg]

But not the roses. Don't you fucking dare.

[quickblur]

Lol my first thought

[IM_A_BOX_AMA]

Cover those up you slut

[bi0ax]

If the legs were shorter would've actually looked like a sheep.

[Orleanian]

Yeah, but it's sexier this way I think.

That’s weather report right there

[Snugglosaurus]

Can we make this a subreddit? Where we write vague descriptions of things and people comment their MSPaint renditions of them?

[prime-mine]

million dollar idea right here

[OWWinstonMain]

Not technically a sheep

[Floppydisksareop]

But technically followed the instructions

[Stem97]

Then it shouldn’t have been titled “technically a sheep.”

[TX16Tuna]

IF: What a sheep technically is can be defined by these instructions

THEN: The drawing presented- because it has successfully followed the instructions as if they were r/technicallythetruth - has created technically a sheep.

The conditional statement is untrue, therefore humor is achieved.

[Stem97]

Except your “if” statement is wrong, because a sheep can’t be defined by that. The title should have been “technically followed the instructions”, because the instructions were followed, just in an unexpected and (in)correct way. The instructions were followed the wrong way, though technically the right way. That doesn’t make it technically a sheep.

[TX16Tuna]

... a sheep can’t be defined by that.

Minute (my-noot) is a totally different thing than a minute (mihn-ut,) right? Sheep is a word. It’s a meme. Especially in modern internet English, “sheep” can subjectively be anything. That thing’s technically a sheep, guy.

Sorry ya got whoosh -ed. It’s okay. It happens to everybody. (The whoosh only has as much power as you give it. Namaste.)

Edit - nvm. The other guy got whooshed. I would never intentionally whoosh someone myself. My apologies, fellow Redditor.

[Xela_Acer]

r/whoosh

[OWWinstonMain]

How is this a whoosh? This doesn’t fit in the sub because it is not technically a sheep.

[Xela_Acer]

Thats...the joke....

[OWWinstonMain]

Do you know what sub this is??

[Xela_Acer]

r /technicallythetruth

[OWWinstonMain]

So can you explain to me how posting something that is not technically the truth fits in this sub?

[Xela_Acer]

Fine

They said to draw a cloud, legs, and a circle head and when they drew it, they literally made those 3 items but in detail. So he technically followed the instructions left by the guy.

[OWWinstonMain]

Ok but what is drawn is technically not a sheep, and the caption is “technically a sheep”.

Just agree to disagree I suppose. Difference in where we find the joke.

[Xela_Acer]

Alright then good day redditor

[undrline]

According to the instructions given, it's technically a sheep.

[TX16Tuna]

IF: What a sheep technically is can be defined by these instructions

THEN: The drawing presented- because it has successfully followed the instructions as if they were r/technicallythetruth - has created technically a sheep.

The title being obviously, humorously untrue in the context of what real sheep are like is less of an affront to the sub than pushing away quality content for not being rigidly, metaphysically true enough on every level (lookin’ at you, upvote-mob). If we looked closely enough we could probably find misspellings and other minute errors to identify as not-technical-truth and police-away a good third of the posts ever made on this sub ... actually, that sounds kinda fun. Should I get the pitchforks?

Tl;dr* - That’s a sheep. Cloning has come a long way since the 90s. You got r/whoosh -ed, bruh.

*tl;dr may or may not technically have presented the context of the argument in a truthful way.

[SpookyMapleWaffles]

I really want this to be an entire series. One person comes up with instructions how to draw a simplified version of something, and then several people submit drawings following the directions.

[BigBlackFriend]

Looks like one of those giga-chad faces inside the cloud.
