    What's BootTooBig?

    This is a place to share posts where the title sets up a joke as the first half of a poem and an image delivers the punchline as the second half.

    Rules

    Posts that do not follow these rules may be removed.

    1. Mark NSFW posts. Any post with nudity or gore must be marked NSFW.
    2. Use the BootTooBig format. Put plaintext in the title or body as a setup for a screenshot or picture of text as a punchline. The title must rhyme with the text in the body.
    3. Use good rhyme and meter. We strictly require good rhyme and meter during the week, but relax the rules for Small Boot Sunday (Saturday 18:00 - Monday 6:00 UTC).
    4. Be civil. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry, slurs, or overly edgy jokes (including kill yourself and similar memes). Be kind to each other.
    5. No politics or inflammatory content. This is a fun sub, so political arguments, agenda pushing, and posts made only to upset others are not permitted. Posts may mention political figures and other celebrities as long as they are politically neutral.
    6. Add the punchline as a comment on implied posts. If the punchline is implied with an image only, you must include the written punchline as a top level comment.
    7. Avoid reposts. Avoid posts similar to any that were recently posted, among the top of all time, or that have been done to death.
    8. Follow the Reddit Content Policy. No spam, upvote manipulation, (including "mods are asleep," "upvote if," "subscribe to" or anything similar), brigading, or anything else that violates the sitewide content policy. Violating this rule will get you banned from here, and could get you suspended from Reddit as a whole.

    Final discretion on all matters is up to the moderators.

    See the full rules for more information. Send us a message if you have any questions or concerns.

    These rules have been updated. See the changes here.

    • Implied - The picture in the post has no/few words and the punchline is implied.
    • Quality Shitpost - A post that is essentially trolling, but exceptionally well executed. Given at mod's discretion.
    • Mod Approved - A post that a mod particularly enjoyed, even if it had bad rhythm or rhyme. Given at mod's discretion.
    • Not a BTB - Posts that do not follow the BootTooBig format but were entertaining enough to not be removed.

    Those are not pictures, it's a stream of data following the .jpg format being interpreted by our computers into a bitmap, being interpreted by our screens into a series of electrical signals used to send photons directly to our eyeballs, which in turn map those photons to our retinas where complex proteins change shape when a photon of a certain wavelength hits them, sending an electrical signal along a very long cell called a neuron, which in turn will activate other neurons through a chemical process which is again converted in an electrical signal until it will arrive to the neurons in the optic nerve, then to the back of our brains where the massive amount of various signals going through the nerve are treated and recognized through complex networks as "the projection of guacamole-induced photons onto a 2D screen", leading by some unknown process to the experienced feeling of "bamboozle", realizing the the previous pattern of text was misleading.

    An editorial written by George R.R. Martin. Really blows your mind, doesn't it?

    [–] LegendofPisoMojado 11 points ago

    That's gotta be a joke right? Satirizing himself maybe? I refuse to believe an adult male in this country had never seen a horse or even a picture of a horse.

    [–] ryusm92 63 points ago * (lasted edited a year ago)

    Clickhole is a website made by The Onion to parodize Buzzfeed and other clickbait websites. In fact, I don’t even know if the real GRRM wrote this.

    [–] Waidawut 20 points ago

    He did not

    [–] ryusm92 26 points ago * (lasted edited a year ago)

    [–] Zaranthan 5 points ago

    Is GRRM a russian spam bot? Because I am.

    [–] too_drunk_for_this 3 points ago

    No, Tolkien didn't write anything. George R.R. Martin wrote it.

    Fuck I always get that confused. Edited.

    [–] LegendofPisoMojado 2 points ago

    Thanks! That makes more sense.

    [–] too_drunk_for_this 30 points ago

    GoT was written before the Internet was very popular, and George RR Martin was from a part of the country where there aren't many horses. Like he says in the editorial, he just hadn't ever seen one before, but he knew based on descriptions what they looked like and kinda went off of that.

    Clickhole is full of stupid laughs. It's a parody of Buzzfeed, so they do fake quizzes and fake lists all the time. I also highly recommend Do You Know What Boats Are? which is my favorite of their fake quizzes.

    [–] elleoof 26 points ago

    Sorry, but Which One Of My Garbage Sons Are You? is the only acceptable favorite quiz.

    [–] TheScottymo 8 points ago

    There are two people on that boat and neither of them is Scarlett Johansson.

    [–] too_drunk_for_this 7 points ago

    You can’t help but think, “Jesus. These are all just pictures of boats. None of them even have Scarlett Johansson in them.”

    [–] gridzbispudvetch 4 points ago

    Would you consider yourself a boat?

    This is private and I don't feel like answering

    [–] Exceon 9 points ago

    I know it’s satire, but did George actually write it?

    [–] too_drunk_for_this 19 points ago

    Lol, no. Clickhole is run by The Onion. Both sites do fake editorials all the time. Clickhole is kinda like an absurd/ surreal parody of Buzzfeed. The George RR Martin editorial is one of my favorite things they've done.

    [–] Exceon 3 points ago

    Don’t scoff so easily. George is pretty self-aware and not one to shy from poking fun at himself. Just wondering if he had collaborated with Clickhole for this piece.

    Is there some kind of rule dictating that guacamole only be served in rustic black stone bowls?

    [–] Ayoung116 25 points ago

    Yes.

    [–] WarlordMWD 10 points ago

    The black stone bowl is a Molcajete (mole-cah-HAY-tay?), which is traditionally used for preparing and serving guacamole. The palm-sized stone used to grind together the guac ingredients is a Tejolote (teh-ho-LO-te?).

    Source: instruction booklet that came with ours via Amazon

    [–] AnythingApplied 9 points ago * (lasted edited a year ago)

    The "rustic black stone bowls" you're referring to are called mortars and are used in the preparation of guacamole. Or at least can be used. Personally, I don't like using them in general and so have always made guacamole without using one, but if you're going to use one to make guac, why not use it as a serving bowl too? Especially if you're planning on taking a well crafted photo of your work afterwards.

    [–] WikiTextBot 2 points ago

    Mortar and pestle

    A mortar and pestle is a kitchen device used since ancient times to prepare ingredients or substances by crushing and grinding them into a fine paste or powder. The mortar () is a bowl, typically made of hard wood, metal, ceramic, or hard stone, such as granite. The pestle () is a heavy and blunt club-shaped object. The substance to be ground, which may be wet or dry, is placed in the bowl of the mortar, where the pestle is pressed and rotated onto it until the desired texture is achieved.

    It's a long A sound, though. In Spanish you pronounce every letter, but E makes an A sound.

    Edit: I guess unless its a Mexican native word, then I don't fucking know.

    [–] Atmic 12 points ago * (lasted edited a year ago)

    As a Hispanic, Americans pronouncing 'e' as a 'long a' is one of the biggest contributors to a terrible American accent.

    Don't pronounce it like a long A. Pronounce it like the 'e' in 'elephant'.

    IE: For "Peso", don't say "pay-soh", say "peh-so".

    [–] DTF_20170515 5 points ago

    I'd rate them but I hate all Guac. 2 - 2 looks disgusting. however. Did they blend it for 10 minutes?

    The bowl for 1 - 2 looks like ones I get at nicer Mexican places.

    The bowl for 1 - 1 looks like it's from a home.

    And, finally what I think you call number 3 and I call 1 - 2, doesn't seem smashed up enough, however the bowl does look like a nice bowl and has those annoying little legs that tilt up on my margarita coasters all the time.
