Reddit is the golden calf of advertisers that are e-marketing virally to the modern plebeian through the homogenization of culture via recursive memetic humor and a limited set of media channels, whereas Something Awful is the advertiser's Untouchable, a self-destructive hive of scum, cynics, nerds, and penniless comedians that like to have discussions with each other.

They're incredibly dissimilar in method and function, userbase, and investor interest, and with good reason.

Something something lowest common denominator, grumble mumble internet makes you stupid.

it annoys me when anyone asks me questions about this website like they expect me to condense its entire history in a sentence for them

like, I don't know how else to put it, I can tell the question they want to ask me is 'why did you pay for an account?' or 'how do I make a website that people will want to pay me to use?' and I have no livid loving clue how to ever respond to it

'oh wow, you mean people pay to use it? neat! I like money! how do I do that?! TELL ME NOW!!! TELL ME HOW TO MAKE MONEY ON THE INTERNET!!!'

Reddit is fail, but to be honest I think GBS sucks poo poo too. It's why I mostly post in FYAD, which is a lot funnier and better than GBS. The posters here are a bunch of loser 30 year old alcoholics who think they're so funny but they're not. No one in GBS comes close to being as funny as the likes of g0m, manyak and people like that.

What kind of person posts in fyad these days? I suppose they're all well groomed, successful career wise, and involved in enriching social/romantic relationships in real life, but some how still find time to post zany 12 year old toilet humor in a subforum of a dying internet community?

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

This incredibly dumb and annoying 19 year old I dated a year or two ago brought up Slenderman for some reason, probably when the murders happened. I was like "I actually post on the website that created Slenderman :smug:" and she said, "you post on creepypasta too?? :downs:

I don't even know what creepy pasta is so I just didn't say anything...

That reminds me, I was also in the sex tape that resulted in efukt shutting down a few years ago. The girl I made it with posted a lot on their forums, and shared the video with the owner who then got busted by his wife. Someone wrote a little blurb in encyclopedia dramatica about her, but no one ever knew the guy in it was me, and efukt got sold to new ownership or something. She shared it without my consent so she's a dick, but we're still good friends. She still has the old owners phone number, the little home-wrecker.

Times the internet got Too Real.

it being forced was the entire point of the joke, which was the thread hastily coming up with a new meme to continue our murder streak. i guess maybe its a good thing if you turn over to reddit's side. your irony levels aren't high enough.

your definitions of pedophilia and crime are super shotgun because u have authority complex issues due to ur families divorced life and moms psychosis. thats the reason. the compulsion for ur back peddling is because u need SA as its ur outlet. other ppl have other outlets theyre good at. im fine not posting here or even reading it. but when ppl and ur women come after me multiple times. ??????
