John Oliver. Just for the irony.
Can someone for the love of God explain the John Oliver meme to me? I don't like his show so I'm out of the loop
Reddit was forcing subreddits to re open or face mod removal. /r/pics reopen but their new rule (as a form of protest) was only pictures of John Oliver.
Yeah...but why did they pick him?
Probably in the hopes that he would notice, which he did.
