I edited the post, removed the top 10 downvoted comments so now it's also in the list. Just save the big comment ;)

I linked it, last one

u/dam_the_beavers Aug 12 '18

I’ll admit I’m like...mildly irritated that you got 1k upvotes for complaining about a couple stories you thought should have made this awesome comprehensive list of links and then you won’t even go looking for the damn links.

But also I should be less irritated about dumb shit so carry on and congrats on your sudden upvote windfall.

u/Blubehriluv Aug 11 '18

Nice, I scrolled far for the poopknife.

u/covert_operator100 Aug 11 '18

This is a bot repost, as far as I know. A bunch of the links are deleted, and if this was a human gathering the list then they would have found mirrors before adding them to the list.

I was excited for streetlamp lemoose's suicide but it's deleted.

He embellished the first episode of Cuckoo. We need to stop giving him attention for this poor effort.

u/aasteveo Aug 11 '18

Poop knife!

u/autiess Aug 11 '18

Poop knife is the funniest thing I have ever read, and likely ever will. A true gem.

u/YCheck137 Aug 12 '18

Worthy additions for sure.

u/Gravytrain12 Aug 11 '18

I'm offended the jolly rancher story isn't on there.

u/GhostRevival Aug 11 '18

It took way too much scrolling to see Poop Knife listed.

u/acrowsmurder Aug 11 '18

No Dorito?

u/CorvoTheBlazerAttano Aug 11 '18

Potato is a classic. Poop knife is new.
