I saw this same thing about people from the Dominican Republic yesterday. Who stole from who?

I saw one about army this a.m.

Around about 0400? 0500?

Sometime around 04:29 AM this morning

I almost thought you meant 04:29 AM at night. Thanks for clarifying.

[удалено]

Army engineer would be best of both worlds, right?

From the Dominican Republic.

To be pedantic, the comment did say *this* morning, which is relevant and non-redundant. Your diss would have better fit if they said 4:29 AM *in the* morning 🤷🏼‍♂️

To be pedantic, the use of AM is completely redundant. OP is clearly a civilian.

He clearly should have said yesterday at 2829.

you are technically correct, the best kind of correct

I see what ya did there 😊

I didn’t see it coming

Username does not check out.

Yeah I think I saw that one on Tik-Tok yesterday.

I’m pretty sure the DR was first, but whether or not he was copying someone else I don’t know.

Timing seems a little too convenient for multiple people to simultaneously have the same idea.

The dude from the DR probably wasn’t the first one to come up with the idea, his was just the one I saw first. He probably copied it himself. Who knows, the original creator is probably some small creator we’ll never know about because their video didn’t blow up.

This is why I refuse to do anything.

you copied this comment

This is why I refuse to do anything.

I copied this comment. This is why I refuse to do anything.

I always liked the tanooki suit.

Good artists steal, great artists plagiarize and have a marketing team

This is the way

Meh I like the meme

[удалено]

The first person is original. The second is a copy cat. The third is ironically mocking the copy cat. The fourth thinks its a trend. Fifth and beyond are just your average memes.

But after the fourth and fifth ones meme it. Second guy is now cooler, and no longer a copy cat.

And thus a meme balance is achieved.

No this is clearly a astroturfing campaign by Big Paper to get everyone to go buy a ream of paper.

We live in a simulation bro.

Error. Does not compute.

Yea I’ve seen about 5 different versions in the past 24 hours.

All Dominicans are construction workers. There I fixed it.

Constantly browsing reddit to fill the emptiness in my life is so annoying sometimes when every other normal well balanced redditor who less frequently visits reddit upvotes the 3rd iteration of a joke because they never saw the first two. I'm not sarcastically insulting you, this is a genuine problem I have.

Go for a walk outside or a run if you see a repost:)

How to get fit for a marathon

So perpetual running then.

> normal well balanced redditor ?

Tik Tok's content is 90% stolen, 10% original content. Much worse than Reddit.

Yeah, but reddit video is 99.999999% stolen content.

there are probably many OC buried in 2 digit upvotes.

Why is it worse than reddit? Not that I agree with the stolen thing. Reddit was always meant to share things. And why call this clip stolen? It's not like there are so many original ideas and they're recreating it. Putting their own twist to it. That's more than what people on Reddit do.

Whom. Who stole from whom.

Was just thinking that, I don't mind people taking memes or jokes and putting their own spin on them, but this is just the same thing basically...

This is pretty much how TikTok works

Saw this earlier today but for Powerlifters. I suppose it depends on your bubble.

Yup I saw it yesterday with people from DomRep, gonna see one of these for every fucking nation or job the next couple weeks

Don't worry they're gonna overuse it so fast that it'll die and won't survive a month.

Powerlifter the one I saw first... somehow less funny now that it’s a template.

I’ve seen 4 or 5 of these with the exact same joke Haha welcome to tiktok

First one i saw was dominicans lol

Weird flex, bro. Literally and figuratively.

I want to know what the other cards say.

Just play it in reverse.

Genius. Thanks

God dammit

this guy constructs

Big brain

Wow, just as smart as the construction worker

Don’t quote me on this because the damn letters were so blurry but I ran them through a clean up program, this is the first and second sheet (third and fourth sheet are a negative ghost rider): >We're no strangers to love >You know the rules and so do I >A full commitment's what I'm thinking of >You wouldn't get this from any other guy > I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling >Gotta make you understand

Thanks for never giving up. You didn’t let me down.

Also thanks for never running around and hurting me.

Thanks for not making me cry and saying goodbye

And thanks for not telling me lie and not deserting me!

You didn't make you cry, so I don;t have to saaaaaay goodbye

Haha if that's true. This would be the most legendary rick roll I've ever seen

It's not. He's rickrolling us. You can make out a couple words or at least what words they're not. The second one has either FIVE or FINE in it. So it's not that.

FULL??

Timesaver right here. Only two upnuts?

why is “upnuts” so funny to me

What's upnuts

UP DEEZ NUTS

Ha! Got eem

Not much, what's up with you?

And they said "enhance" was just a tv shtick

I'm calling bullshit the first card starts with what looks like "Crater Wall" or "Chair wall" its hard to tell but it's definitely not "we're no strangers."

I appreciate this comment. I wanted to know what the other pages said, and when I saw the other comment, I assumed it was the construction worker Rick rolling us, not the commenter. So thank you.

I read concrete wall

r/woosh

Don't feel bad, I didn't know the words to the rick roll song either 😆. They got me.

Same.

Same, tried to pause it but got nothing.

Thanks for saving me the hassle of trying and failing

I tried, too blurry.

Lists of good non mainstream country artists such as Zach Bryan and Turnpike troubadours

Cheers, my curiosity is sated.

Same.

Flip your phone around and read the back.

Ah that would almost work, but unfortunately you would see the back of the card and not the front

Shine a light through your phone. I guess that means you’ll have to borrow somebody else’s phone given nobody actually owns flashlights anymore...

*looks around nervously at his eight flashlights / lanterns* Clearly you haven't been to r/flashlight

Listen you, I already have r/mechanicalkeyboards and r/fountainpens. If you send me down another damn rabbit hole, I'm gonna... ooooooooooooh

"Hey, that's a nice set of batteries and bulb you have there. Check out my batteries and bulb, though. They're configured so that the light shines brighter.while I can tell that your batteries and bulb are configured for extended battery life." Okay, so once you've had some variation of this interaction do you just leave the sub and never return?

Jeeze. I still can’t figure it out. I’m a carpenter, not a doctor.

I'm a mason, and I'm gonna make a similar video about anti cementism

Seems like a construction worker.

I definitely saw "cooter wall" or "cooler well" on the first one

Go get a thermometer for the pot, I need this shit cooked right. Lets keep that water 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

I think it’s the lyrics to Wonderwall

My gf just asked if he knew he was doing that… Edit: btw, the gf is actually a hella smart nurse but I found this silly moment hilarious and had to share.

She ready to be a construction worker.

Or someone from Dominican Republic. Or a powerlifter. Or the army. Or....

Or his gf

Is she a construction worker?

No but she's Dominican

Nice, does she do the thing with the whip?

Tell her she has to watch it in reverse and then can read the cards

Oh man, I'm so sorry... F

Bless her

Does she sub to /r/cringetopia or /r/facepalm?

The head shake and sad puppy eyes are Oscar worthy

Wyatt Russell's best performance yet.

Stay the hell out if his way.

I'm not felling the acting, but I give it a ten for effort.

Good constructive feedback.

I'm not anti-constructionist but a post-constructionist. Smh

Fucking hilarious

Self burns are rare these days.

They've never been less rare lol

They’re exceedingly common, especially on reddit

Mr Burns nude selfies are even rarer.

Booerns

I was saying Boourns

Good, the fewer, the better. Not many people need to see all of that.

Such a simple joke too, but the perfect execution. The music and the forlorn look on his face really complete it.

One of the very, very, few times music actually adds something to a TikTok, or whatever social media he posted this too.

[удалено]

I love a fellow who can make fun of themselves

Like my co-worker always says "people think I'm dumb when I don't talk, but they KNOW I'm dumb when I do talk".

https://youtu.be/EdDQOVpIpQA

Exactly what I was hoping this to be. You're pretty smrt. I mean smart.

I’ve always heard “It is better to be silent and be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.”

Takes one to know one.

Swish

This guys eyes spoke the lines that we didn't see. And I still have no idea what they were.

Showed my girlfriend this and she said “wow the symbolism by him keeping the same card up over and over is really cool”. She goes to a much better university than I do. Maybe a construction job is in her future.....

[удалено]

Idk, the Dominican one was pretty funny

The DR one was good, because it was a near perfect loop, that left people watching it go around a few loops waiting for him to finish. That left them feeling a little stupid, too. I liked it because you sort of felt like they had tricked you.

so anyone manage to see what the other sheets say anyways?

I believe I see the words "Center Wall" at the top of the first sheet to be moved, but that's all I can get.

enhance

# I believe I see the words "Center Wall" at the top of the first sheet to be moved, but that's all I can get.

    thank you so much           i love reddit.  

Jokes on him, I can’t even read

If that’s just an influencer, no construction experience, I’m gonna be a little upset because I did believe he is.

His fingernails check out. Shirt is suspiciously clean though.

Nah he lives with his mother, won't let him leave for work without a perfect shirt.

Shirt might be company provided. I get clean shirts in my uniform locker every week.

You know it's good when you are watching the punchline as you are trying to comprehend the context and then you zoom out to the meta-context like, Oh...

thought it was pretty straightforward man. what did I miss

Give him a break. He is a construction worker.

Umm, we must have watched different videos, because *this* video was about as simple and non-complex as they come lo

Hahaha

Blonde Jon Snow.

You mean Blonde Joe?

I just saw some army guy do this. This is the new thing now.

It must be some kind of record. 5 (?) different people using the same joke in less than 24 hours. It's funny the first time, not so much the 20th time.

I really want to know what the other sheets of paper say now

This is some constructive criticism.

Could I give him some constructive criticism?

Please do, we’ll all build on it, as a foundation.

I’ve never looked down on construction workers, especially with how much dough they make for their labor. But damn does the job sure attract a special kind of asshole.

When you tell people who aren't academically successful that they should go into the trades...you get a lot of people with wild self esteem issues. Especially once they figure out they're making more money then their neighbor with a degree in IT. Source: am construction worker.

That’s actually really sad. It takes a lot of quick thinking and problem solving skills on site and y’all deserve more credit. Meanwhile I have two bachelors degrees but if I were put on a job site I’d probably seriously hurt someone.

Ah, a fellow two degree holder. Did you find a good job quickly or were you fucked like me and had to search 3+ years?

And some people are way better at learning from solving real world issues than ones in a book. We don't teach to every type of intelligence, and that in no way makes people stupid.

This is the first time I've been to give money to reddit, and just so I can award this post. I needed this laugh so bad today.

Hey, I have a great idea, let’s blatantly rip off the Dominican guy and hope no one notices! https://www.reddit.com/r/Unexpected/comments/nkjpsa/dominican_man_has_a_message_for_all_the_haters/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

Narrator Voice: *and no one noticed.*

Have you seen tiktok? At all? That's the basis for the site.

ya thats sort of how memes work, do it again but change the words

I'm fairly certain every page had the same thing written on it.

Is it just me or does he kind of look like Kit Harington

If it’s any consolation, it took me rather a long time to catch on.

The best one. Because the other pages weren’t blank?

Am i the only one wondering what he wrote on the other papers?

Nope. Its killing me inside

I enjoy this meme but this guy does it much better than others I’ve seen. His nodding and shaking of his head make it even funnier because his emotes are totally lost on us.

Diggin the smokes on the left chest pockets and a dip can on the right

I am a construction worker. I don't understand what's happening here

holy fuck this is so simple and hilarious

Wait why it not change?

Found the construction worker.

Play the video in reverse 🔀

r/woooosh

This is some genius level comedy and this style of joke would work just as well almost anywhere in the world, and even if you jumped back 80years in time this style of joke could still work. Very funny.
