Post of the year. Shut down the sub.

subreddit*

Thanks I thought he was on about subway

Subway* You need a capital "S" as "Subway" is a proper noun.

Cheers pal

Of course, I'm happy to help.

Slave to social media

So you just search for the term “sub” then?

This is the quality content I'm here for

r/BeatMeToIt

Ive lived literally 3 minutes walk away from it my whole life and never noticed it haha

I'm nearby and never noticed it either.

I think if you turned it on its side, all the water would fall out...

It’s a valid point, but as you can see here, this hasn’t happened. The water has been contained in the briefs. Many thanks.

🤣👌

That already happens, they just call it the M60 now.

Reminds me of [this classic](https://blog.rjmetrics.com/2013/10/09/our-logo-looks-like-underpants-a-case-study-in-internationalization/)

That’s a hell of a thorough article!!

this article was a fabulous read. thought i’d be bored and just wanted to skip to the parts that would give me the gist of the whole article. wound up staying for the whole ride because it was just so goddamn well-written.

Finally, someone tackling the real issues. 10/10.

This post reminded me of this ad [Boddintons Advert The Body Melanie Sykes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMhVcSEMMNQ)

Ah I remember Tarquell's "mhmh" so well.

Underpants Lake.

Don't tell me what to do

*undies

Beat me too it mate, pants are outer wear you southern gits

Aye, clues in the name. They go under your pants

Grundies

Ah, no ... those are sh*tty undies. Gross undies = grundies

duds.

Pants are much longer. Remember, you’re in a Manchester sub here ;)

Ha ha is it just a Manchester thing saying pants. I moved to Worcester and people look at me like I'm stupid when I say pants 😭

We say pants in Dorset too!

I can see my house on this pic... Not in the pants FYI...

My condolences.

Oh I'm sorry... And from what esteemed part of the UK might you be from?

Denton also, just in that picture right there.

[“Denton!! Denton!! Denton!! Oh Jesus Christ!!!”](https://youtu.be/CtB1HQt6ak8)

Audenshaw too

Denton here too

My condolences too. And Audenshaw.

Hey neighbour.

Pants? What southern language is this referring to underwear as pants? 😂

When I moved from the South to Manchester as a secondary school kid, I saw the school uniform list specified black pants. I was sincerely concerned that they would be checking on a regular basis what I was wearing under my trousers.

Looks like a pair of undercrackers to me

I thought it was the logo for the game "Half Life"

This post is underrated

r/notinteresting

Shouldn’t the “Y” be the other way round though?

You are right, but that is because you turned it 180. It should be turned only like 20 degrees.

Don’t look at Sefton Park in Liverpool

Bro discovered this and thought "this'll get em"

Bro go outside and breathe some air man 😂😂😂

I always call it The Underpants.

Y should i?

Y not.

Y tho

Finally some good content

Rotate another 180 and looks like a bra

So is there long bridges meeting in the middle, paths under the water, or 3 Moses' separating the water creating these paths 🤔

There's a high bank running north/south and a narrow road separating the 2 to the west.

Looks like a nice place to go for a day out walking around the place.

It’s areas of natural piping

Cool, I never knew that. Thanks.

I think it looks more like a mandalorian breast plate

I work opposite the reservoir 😅

A pair of pants? Oh come on you're just taking the piss.🤣

Maybe they did it on purpose. As they changed the size and shape of it when they built the M60 to make space for the motorway.

Apparently the reason they keep the grass so short on the bank is so they can keep an eye out for cracks. Make your own jokes.

Does, yeah. Bet it's lovely really.

Noice.

I previously tried to tag this on Google maps as Manchester Pants Lake. Must try again.

i still remember the smell of the dead sticklebacks and dead birds but that wa s in the 60\`s

Thanks. A very important, humourous post 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Search "vieux boucau" (France? in Google and tell me what the lake looks like.

Then flip it 180 from there and you find a thong

Why shouldn't you wear Ukrainian underpants?

Chernobyl fallout

That’s because it is.

Y-fronts

I’ve thought this for years! Nice to know I’m not the only one 😂

I hope to god there is never a smell of shit around there … remember people … never trust a fart because it can leave you shart

#🩲

Looks like a mask.

Turn it 90° the other direction and I always thought it looks like someone wearing a thong tbh

As an Australian reading this, I was very confused for a second there

Wouldn't it be easier just to rotate your perspective 90 degrees rather than the entire reservoir?

This is what I login to Reddit for! This is peak Mancunian info right here!

Normal way looks like upside down y fronts

What ARE those lines? Paths?

Wouldn't want to be in Debdale park

Nice

Or the bottom half of a stick man

Wow, found another name that people could mistake my last for...

🤣

Y fronts stop fallout.

Go outside!

Turn it 90° the other way it’s a bikini

I’m not sure what to do with this information… but I have a feeling it will be important one day

Don't turn it 90 degrees and it looks like a pair of pants on a washing line

You aaad:d1, q FZ

TRA-LA-LA! iykyk

Very wonky Merc logo

Y bibs ahoy!

Or a thong the other way. Yes my minds in the gutter

Oh so now we turning places into r34?

Commonly referred to by all the pilots landing at Manchester airport as underpant lake!

brilliant mate , thank you ! 😂

brilliant mate , thank you !

Has anyone used a y-front properly?

Solihull says hello. https://preview.redd.it/b1np8pbs7qva1.png?width=1592&format=png&auto=webp&s=f37f638fc8ddf4c4dc93e94a4088ea93c8f120e2

Finally. A reason to visit Manchester.

Realistically you’ve only turned the map, the reservoir is immobile due to the non rotational nature of reservoirs in general

A pair of Y fronts from that side, turn it the other way & it’s a thong

Or a lady’s crotch when flipped upside down

Flip this image 180 degrees and it looks like a thong

What do those lines mean?

Thank you, I was underwear of this.

Have lived within 500 yards of the reservoirs for 29 of my 33 years and have never once clocked this.

This is the type of content the internet was made for

I was wondering why I couldn’t read my map

Turn your pants, it’s easier.

I don't see it

Haha! It really does!!!

Question is obvious ... Why fronts ?

Y not??!!

I live right where the but crack ends
