>>92828642>recent immigrants from other sites.And I wouldn't mind that if they at least had someone decent to lurk from or if they even lurked at all, but when 2011 happened, none of them lurked, and they decided to become the most cancerous shits the world has ever seen.
And to think it all started with rage comics.
We make a meme in mid 2006, have fun with it for a year and a half, and ditch it, The joke was dead. We'd had our fun with it.
Then, some scavengers from reddit found them, and since it was new to them, they paraded those cancerous faces everywhere. It was hearing a stranger spout out an old inside joke you and your friends once used, as if it'll make any of you laugh anymore. He guffaws like a mongoloid, and everyone just feels awkward, not wanting to hear ti ever again. Then, he tells the joke to all his buddies, they have a riot with it, and then they all spread it around some more until it becomes more or less mainstream. You can guess how bitter 4chan users were, especially /v/, who used these memes the most.
Fast forward two years and the reddit-4chan link has been established: the redditors who found rage comics and found them funny all have begun flocking en masse to the oh so epic source of their jokes, blubbering in like dumb teenagers with morbid curiosity, poking a corpse. When the pastel horse incident occurred, the link was made, and those redditors spread the horse meme like wildfire, both here and abroad. people got pissy about, and others who saw the pissiness decided to stoke the flames ever further for some epic trolling.
This whole thing had two long term effects:
1.) pastel horse incident made it clear to easily triggered autists that if you scream loud enough, you'll get what you want, and the whole world is your echo chamber/hugbox
2.) any kind of humor, ANY kind of inside joke, ANY kind of OC is suddenly "reddit." FUCKING ANYTHING.
We'll be SomethingAwful in 5 years, tops.
