This was posted just today on the talesfrom4chan tumblr: http://i.imgur.com/06ji9du.gif I think it's the one you mean, no? Spoilered because it's in the form of those demotivational posters.

Bananaquiter posted:They are trying to remove God from our National Anthem, share if you disagree! So I work for a video channel and we aired some like old rear end movie from 1950-something and there was a scene with the Pledge of Allegiance in it. Apparently this scene offended one of the subscribers to our channel so much he emailed our customer support ranting and raving about how we "edited out 'One nation under God' from the movie." In reality, 'under God' wasn't added until several years after the movie was released. We explained it to the guy, and he basically said that the studio should add in 'under God' to follow the law. I couldn't fathom the level of idiocy it took to think that was something worth getting up in arms over.

Just noticed the See More is cutoff: "Maybe we all came into existence yesterday and all of our memories came pre-implanted? I would also say that the night sky is a great document as to how old the universe is. The most distant galaxy that is visible to us is 30 billion light years away so, in essence, we are looking 30 billion years into the past: http://www.dailygalaxy.com/my_weblo...the-milky-.html The universe is crazy."

4chan and SA are really not much different. /v/ is pretty much the same as our Games forum, lots of nerds arguing about console wars. /s4s/ and FYAD are both metaboards for shitposting. A bunch of people here obviously hang out on /a/, too. And for the record, when it comes to anything Tumblr-related (even posting an image with a tumblr filename), they have the same kneejerk reaction you guys do when someone brings up 4chan.

Quick science sidetrack; I'm a biologist and despite loving physics I think I only grasp it from Cosmos and such. I get that the universe is ~13.7 billion years old, but how can something be 30 billion light years away if its impossible to go faster than light? Even if we are on the exact opposite side of the universe surely it could only be ~27 billion light years away? Is it due to the 'elastication' of the universe everyone is harping on about? My head hurts.

What's hilarious is whenever blatant goons post on 4chan, as happened during the forum downtime a couple of weeks ago. Then we all came right back here and bitched about how terrible anons are. e; also whatever we might think of each other, I think 4chan and SA can both agree that reddit is infinitely worse.

It is going to take something really, really atrocious to topple Reddit as the worst place on the internet. I mean, at least 4chan has put its dues in against posting illegal content, whereas Reddit mods had to be shamed and harassed into shutting down the pedophile subreddits numerous times. (and they still host Red Pill and subreddits about beating your wife so uh, yeah)

Those reddit subpages are scummy and its a shame the main mods were such idiots for being reluctant to shut em down but the little ive read on reddit it's not too bad for instance the World Cup subreddit is decent, I hit up the Dark Souls 2 one, my own city is fine for local stuff. Saying its ALL poo poo when SA has some terrible stuff as well is kinda weird. The internet is just a loving dumb place.

ToxicSlurpee posted:...why. I mean, just...why? I post on neither site but from what I know of them this feels like an internet culture literally declaring war on itself. More importantly, how, pray tell, do they intend on destroying 4chan? Drowning it in poor grammar? Pretty sure 4chan already has plenty of stupid and an infinite capacity for more. It's a little more than just gross things on popular tags, it's also a weird 4chan prank to impersonate SJW types and get them to agree with stupid bullshit that sounds like something they'd like. Last I read they had been uncovered as trying to get a hashtag activism campaign going under #endfathersday. But the upshot has been that now tumblr SJWs fervently believe that not only is anyone that disagrees with them even slightly is cis scum, but also probably a 4chan infiltrator. theironjef has a new favorite as of 23:22 on Jul 6, 2014 |

From a few pages ago but this is about that game tournament allowing women. He went on for like 50 more posts with the general feminists stuff but I just love everything about that first one. Some more from him: And 99% of the other replies to the article were "why can there be women-only events but not men-only? That's sexist!"

I'd say that if you stepped on a colostomy bag and recorded the resultant squelching, squishing sounds, and then you ran the recording through a voice-to-text program, you'd probably get something close to a Return of Kings article.
