First we will be persecuted. Soon, we will rule all of Redditdom.

Pope /u/WaterChestnut3 I will almost certainly face a violent 404.

I would also like to be a relic.

geethmo · 2 points · Posted at 09:02:19 on January 3, 2014 · (Permalink)

I can see it now. A few weeks down the road, this will be the new thing. Everyone and their mother will know of these. Then when it's all over and done with, people will hate it like past memes before its time.

Hedwin · 98 points · Posted at 10:02:00 on January 2, 2014 · (Permalink)

LoL just watched this unfold on /r/wheredidthesodago

Bravetriforcur · 68 points · Posted at 16:19:52 on January 2, 2014 · (Permalink)

First /r/wheredidthesodago is created from a comment thread on a ridiculous gif.

/r/behindthegifs is created from a comment thread on /r/wheredidthesodago on a ridiculous explanation for a ridiculous gif.

It's just too good.

Its like a subception!

1FLU · 32 points · Posted at 19:26:28 on January 2, 2014 · (Permalink)

It's nothing like that.

Intoxic8edOne · 11 points · Posted at 20:50:29 on January 2, 2014 · (Permalink)

Well.. Actually. It may be the most relevant "inception" comment recently. Inception isn't "something inside something inside something". Inception is the planting of an idea to make it seem like it's one's own. We got two major ideas from comment threads in "major" subreddits that spurred from funny posts. You could say those posts planted the idea and someone came up with it.

idealreaddit · 4 points · Posted at 17:52:27 on January 4, 2014 · (Permalink)

That's not what inception is…inception is the beginning. Beginning of anything

mortiphago · 3 points · Posted at 23:40:03 on January 2, 2014 · (Permalink)

more like a perpetually continuing branch of subreddits, as if reddit was fractal in nature

happycadaver · 15 points · Posted at 11:10:49 on January 2, 2014 · (Permalink)

Same here, it's nice to witness history.

Lu7ck · 3 points · Posted at 18:46:49 on January 2, 2014 · (Permalink)

Why didn't anyone think of this before?

venomousbeetle · 1 points · Posted at 01:47:24 on January 3, 2014 · (Permalink)

pretty sure Ive seen something like this before

aprofondir · 32 points · Posted at 12:24:17 on January 2, 2014 · (Permalink)

History begins here. I remember when /r/wheredidthesodago was created out of a funny post on a different subreddit, and behindthegifs is destined to go the same way and breed new subreddits.

[deleted] · 87 points · Posted at 12:28:29 on January 2, 2014 · (Permalink)*

Tears.

Literally I cannot stop laughing. This is the most perfectly constructed thing I've ever witnessed on Reddit. I think I may need a doctor.

A thousand upvotes to you sir.

EDIT: I woke up this morning and I'm still giggling when I think of it. Reddit brokeded my brain.

If this takes off I get to say I was one of the first 100 subscribers! This is history in the making folks!

Evil_Spock · 10 points · Posted at 11:13:52 on January 2, 2014 · (Permalink)

I was the 136^th :(

I could always lie I guess. Although I would have to delete this comment... and hope you forgot.

supermonkie90 · 19 points · Posted at 11:19:36 on January 2, 2014 · (Permalink)

You shouldn't have pointed that out! Now I'm not forgetting anytime soon...

supermonkie90 · 2 points · Posted at 13:28:03 on January 2, 2014 · (Permalink)

I'd out not-forget anyone. I'm the king of not-forgettiness. Fortunately for you though, it's 5 AM here, and I gotta sleep sometime.

[deleted] · 3 points · Posted at 13:47:38 on January 2, 2014 · (Permalink)

While you sleep, I am still not forgetting!

Dammit Now I've completely forgotten what this was all about. Something to do with Cheetos right?

I don't know if the idea has default subreddit potential but I definitely think /r/behindthegifs will be a hit.

TheGreatNargacuga · 2 points · Posted at 12:21:59 on January 2, 2014 · (Permalink)

I have a feeling this sub will grow very quickly.

No, most likely is the kid has shit parents, who can't express emotion.

I'm thinking a lot of these are going to be from /r/wheredidthesodago.

And I have absolutely no problem with this.

"yea it's like seven bags". Seriously though, pretty much a week's worth of calories in that bowl.

I've checked, and sadly, there is no better way
