It was the most transparent thing. A new poster with a regdate of the same day you got perma'd on, talking about the post that got you perma'd that you made months ago, posting in the same threads you posted in?

Private Joker: Is that... a hole in the ground?
Private Pyle: Two point three liters per flush. Full... Asian... Toilet.

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: What is this Mickey Mouse poo poo? What in the name of Jesus H. Christ are you animals doing in my head? Why is Private Pyle out of his bunk after lights-out? Why is Private Pyle squatting over that hole? Why aren't you stomping Private Pyle's guts out?

Private Joker: Sir, it is the private's duty to inform the senior drill instructor that Private Pyle has a full colon that is locked and loaded, Sir!

[pause]

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: [slowly and strictly] Now, you listen to me, Private Pyle. And you listen good. I want that poo poo, and I want it now. You will place that poop on the deck at your feet, and step back away from it.

[Private Pyle grins and aims rear end at Hartman]

Gunnery Sergeant Hartman: [raising his voice] What is your major malfunction, numbnuts? Didn't Mommy and Daddy show you enough attention when you were a child?

[Private Pyle shits Hartman, killing him]

I have come out of my cave of being an internet has-been to purchase this. I have the winning bid.

Roll your eyes all you want - I think this drawing is important.

I was there for the original thread, and the SA forums of that time period formed my dumbass sense of humor. That single piece of art, with the jaunty leg tilt, crotch bulge, and unorthodox card handling technique, has brought me more joy than just about any weird internet thing I've ever encountered. It's pure art - drawn by someone with genuine intent to contribute to a collaborative internet project, and like a fuckin herald of the cesspool internet to come, that project flamed out as internet strangers from around the world came together to dunk hard on it. It's one of the earliest examples of how a bunch of anonymous strangers with mixed intentions collaboratively created something far greater than the sum of its parts, and must be preserved.

This drawing and the ideas it inspired brought people together. It continues to do so. The artist claimed that dumb gently caress $150,000 banana taped to a wall is worth that much because of the "idea" of it. If so, then what is the endless fount of inspiration that this drawing represents worth?

Like the balls on the edge of the cliff, forever appearing and knocking the next one down, Johnny Five Aces will go on forever motherfuckers.

I eagerly anticipate receiving this, getting it properly framed, and lending it out to any art exhibits of internet ephemera that might happen to pop up.

Something Awful has contributed many influences, good and bad, in online culture - being the start of British journalist Eliot Higgins' work as Brown Moses and Bellingcat and having birthed the Slenderman urban myth in 2009 - but Zybourne Clock was not one.

James attributes a lot of the attention paid to Johnny to Something Awful, and in 2010, the character made its way into a real-life video game, hidden in Fallout: New Vegas.

"For some reason these forums seem to be at the hub of a lot of weird online cultural things, so I'm not surprised it's seeped out".

There’s probably a book in explaining all of the ways these forums have influenced today’s culture. One chapter for each notable forum or subforum, go down the list.

My grandfather survived storming Iwo Jima. In the battle he won two bronze stars. Later in the war he would be forced to survive 3 long months in a Japanese prison camp. Shortly before he died I asked him what drove him to keep going during those unfathomably brutal times. The answer he gave me that day will stay with me forever. He said "Every time I wanted to give up I thought to myself, Robert you can't die on a god forsaken rock somewhere in the south pacific never knowing what happened in the Betty Boop expanded universe."

At least this one isn't a scam to get money from China like that bus that let cars drive under it was. Probably.
