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.
This is quite literally one of the funniest things I have seen. Absolute genius move.
Finally they give the people what they want
Ahh, I returned to Reddit for the vote just to learn that vote is over :(. If you are interest in the vote’s result and do not want to visit Reddit, feel free to open the spoiler

ah thanks, I updated the post with the relevant information.
Seems like fate that its kind of a reverse 1337
John Oliver is a California Ten.
Edit: John Oliver talking about a Steve Mnuchin clip: “Now, I know it was hard to pay attention to what he was saying, because you were just automatically undressing the guy with your eyes and you do it whenever he opens his mouth. Am I right? I’m definitely right. The guy’s a California Ten, He’s a smokeshow.” https://youtu.be/RKjk0ECXjiQ?t=643
This is the best thing I’ve seen all month.
@sexy_peach is this what Steve the croak Huffman said about mods having too much power?
That’s pretty funny even if you hate John Oliver
Honestly think it’s funnier if you do hate John Oliver
I can confirm; I hate John Oliver and think this is hilarious.
Why?
A bit late replying (just learned how to see inbox alerts!), But if you’re asking why I don’t like him? Coz he feels like a smug sanctimonious poser.
If you’re John Oliver’s alt, please don’t take this personally xD
Smug tho? He’s constantly self-deprecating in his jokes.
@sexy_peach madlads
Ahhh, very good. Excellent loop hole. It’s possible spez will still try and force pics back to it’s former popularity but this does follow his rules …
Spez probably:
Motherfucker. Move those goalposts again. But no threats! just expectations!. Also what am I paying you for. Less loopholes in our doublespeak.
What I love about this is that it’s exactly the kind of thing he’d talk about on his show, which would be hilarious and also add more exposure the the whole thing.
For sure he’s going to talk about it!
He’s already tweeted about it and gave some photos for people to use: https://twitter.com/iamjohnoliver/status/1670179738348933120?t=58hT7Y7ZMhwZ37CIxgeRdg&s=19
The writers strike is still ongoing though, bad timing for all of this; he would have been a helpful voice.
Can’t wait to see him respond to it. Maybe he will post a couple of saucy pics on the subreddit himself to contribute?
Sounds up his alley.
I don’t like linking to Twitter, but John Oliver acknowledged it and tweeted some photos for Redditers to use: https://twitter.com/iamjohnoliver/status/1670179738348933120?t=58hT7Y7ZMhwZ37CIxgeRdg&s=19
I predict a show segment where he does a photoshoot for the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue.
That sounds dreadful, and yet apropo. I would not want to see the results of said photo shoot, but it would trigger right wingers and Reddit.
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
Why was Jonh Oliver chosen?
I don’t know him and his relation with Reddit, I think I might need some context XD
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.
He usually responds well to weird stuff like this and there’s a chance he’ll mention it on his show.

This is glorious.
I’m curious what spez will do about this.
Double down somehow of course
New Reddit policy: Anyone who posts a photo of John Oliver is permanently banned.
Redditers rush to post as many photos of John Oliver as possible and thousands of users are banned. The postings of John Oliver finally stop, but since the most prolific posters are now banned, all other postings also grind to a halt.
Brilliant. I look forward to John Oliver’s episode on capitalist social media companies like Twitter and Reddit fucking their userbase
Will be a whole new level of sexy pictures at that point…
The one downside to the writer’s strike (that I’ve so far since there was a lot of content banked) is all the late night comedians’ missed opportunities. Of course, I fully support the writers. I hope they get everything they are asking for so that we can get back to watching the amazing stuff they produce!
