So, 4chan is dead. I think everyone knows it's reputation of utterly horrific racism and bigotry, but like. i don't want to go "4chan was great actually!!!', but I feel like it's worth pointing out, not unlike Reddit, it was divided into a lot of sub-forums, some awful, some better. /pol/, /b/ and /r9k/ were utter cesspools, some were actually nice. I was a fan of the /tg/ board.

Simply by chance, a group of millions of people operating across 15 years is going to do some bad things and some good things, whether the group as a whole leans towards good or bad. ( of course, 4chan, taken as a whole, was a net negative for everyone.) So, fuck it, here's a random list of cool and funny things that came from 4chan, in no particular order:

Katawa Shoujo, an entire collaboratively-made, actually great visual novel

/v/ Sings the MGRR soundtrack

a whole bunch of greentexts. funny ones like "wireless device" and actual stories. Of the latter, I'd highlight The Ballad of Edgardo and Old Man Henderson , both from /tg/.

/x/ (paranormal board) was the origin of both the SCP Foundation and the Backrooms

/tg/ is also the origin of the modern "internet CYOA game" genre. Check out r/makeyourchoice to see what I'm talking about, I love these things. (also includes Jumpchain and the related Celestial Forge, if you know those)

so many collaborative drawing and writing threads.

the origin point of the Anonymous hacker group, which did a lot of good, attacking hate organizations like Scientology, the Westboro Baptism Church, and a lot more.

/d/ used to be one of the best places to go for incredibly specific porn

That time when they sent Pitbull to Alaska

*I was going to name the Shia Labeouf flag saga, because the fact a bunch of online dudes managed to locate a camera pointed at the sky by analysing airplane flight paths is insane. unfortunately, the political implications leave a very bitter taste, and I can't in good conscience call it 'funny' or 'cool.'

and if i made a comic about them making a blog for the weird demon dog they found in the woods just because they are being brainwashed by it and it told them they need to spread the word of what word they don’t even fucking know?

Internet Archive has been attacked by some piece of shit hackers.

[noscomunia]

ok but like have y’all read that hacker group’s “explanation” on why they launched a ddos attack on internet archive. bc they said with their whole chest that it’s because:

a) theyre pro-palestine and wanted to flex their big beefy hacker muscles on a website that provides international open access to information as a test before hacking quote, “a list of targets, including israeli entities”

b) the internet archive is secretly in cahoots with the us government and is spying on everybody! eek! scary!! (source cited: brewster khale was on a library of congress digitization initiatives committee. one that is no longer active)

c) these hackers just really REALLY love copyright law okay and they feel oh so bad for the massive corporations sueing the internet archive. “grrr we are activist hackers and we hate piracy grrr”

its the most self-report attempt at being like “i swear guys we aren’t the feds!!” i have EVER seen

Hey guys you can stop reblogging this now. I got it from someone from discord who got it from someone on Tumblr. Please go find the original so I can stop committing plagiarism

I am a former 4chan user. 4chan was recently upended. Here are some statements (that I believe as fact) that you may find helpful.

-4chan was to some degree, a CIA honeypot

-It is(was) the most prolific meme factory of the internet. Even if you never cared for that site, this will affect internet culture for years. If internet memes were cars, this is like if Toyota and Honda went out of business on the same day.

-The last words uttered on 4chan were "Chicken Jockey"

-Tumblr could be imagined as batman, and 4chan as the joker. After the joker went to prison, Batman sat on his ass for seven years until Bane came along. Use this info as you please.

-Your next new internet friend that you make could very well be a 4chan refugee. Please be patient with them.

-Many of the users had been feeling stockholm syndrome for years. Others loathed the fact that they used the site. It's an infectious magnetic place.

-It's pretty funny how this was done by former users of the site that had become radicalized by the jannies and mods. It was a long time coming.

-People on tumblr seem to be overestimating how upset 4chan users are about the site going away. 4chan users know 4chan is a cesspool better than anybody else.

-The info of the mods and jannies were leaked while the site's users were not.

( hi just a quick heads up - im not really adding people to the vocaloid-official masterpost anymore. its gotten really overwhelming to keep up with so. if you’ve asked me to add you and I haven’t done it it’s not personal it’s just kind of become A Lot so im gonna stop doing it I think. the current masterlist will stay up though!

also sorry for no funny posts in a while. ive been really busy with school and also not really in a good headspace to be cooking up Funney Jokes. im still alive and cool just busy with other stuff )

Have I mentioned how much i love ao3? So I'm currently watching a show and I like to look up fanfics but obviously I don't want to get spoiled so I just go to filters scroll down to 'date updated', look up the date the episode aired on, go 6 days ahead to the day before the next episode, and it filters out all the fics about episodes I haven't watched yet! It's great.

Terry: I don’t care what you do to me, but he doesn’t deserve this. He’s done too much for this city to wind up in the middle of a media circus.

Shitty Human Being: He means a lot to you, doesn’t he?

Terry: Yeah, he does
