The people on imgur aren't even trying.

I hat a class where every girl got an A and every guy got a D. We reported it to the dean. He fixed it and teacher took a "leave."

quote:

Bothers me so loving bad. "Lies" "didn't happen" "generic overused comment stating that OP is a liar" Like goddamn. Does it matter? No.

Does it matter when someone lies in order to discredit a political movement? NOPE.

quote:

I've had teachers like that. One got seriously mad at me for a part of a paper that discussed how the Africans sold slaves to the whites.

"Look teach, all I'm saying is that Africans sold slaves to white people initially so really it's the black people who are to blame for slavery."

quote:

I had a teacher get upset because I wrote about how much manpower it took to do something..."humanpower" is not a word, sorry teacher

Looking in the OP's post history, he's also the person who uploaded that "pulled a gun on a robber" STDH.jpg I posted earlier. He also seems to rail against feminists constantly so I think this is mostly a case of the OP being a huge lying rear end in a top hat.

Mind also that this comes from imgur where literally everything that has to do with asia has top comments consisting of "ROR, raughing out roud", "hirarious", "me rikey" etc.

Interestingly, as of lately the comment section has essentially been the exact opposite of the actual post so this one has a whole lot of people calling the dude out while posts bringing up social issues etc. get flooded with fedoras and racists. Reading a comment section on a public website and seeing highbrow discussion feels like stdh.txt come true.

I posted about this somewhere else, but the imgur community is against really obvious racism (particularly against white people) but stereotypes usually fly as long as it's "funny". poo poo about black dudes not having dads and black girls with stereotypical names usually gets up voted to the front page, but something that is obviously racist will still get up voted but torn apart in the comments section. Racism flies there, and when it's pointed out in one of those unpopular opinion puffins, the racism is usually applauded and "it's a joke don't take it seriously" is the motto of the thread.

I mean, it's a community of mostly white mostly male early twenty-somethings. Of course it's going to be unapologetically racist, sexist, and ignorant.

It's the equivalent of people condemning the use of the n-word while simultaneously calling black people thugs and assuming they're guilty savages.

Assuming that first story is real the lady is obviously disturbed and needs some kind of medical assistance.

That second story is sad. I agree with what someone else said earlier, about how that story isn't good enough to bear repeating. I feel like too many people are too willing to give praise for inane bullshit these days. I can't tell you how many pictures/stories I've seen on imgur and tumblr that should really end with "you'd think it was funny if you were there."

We should come up with rules for spotting a bullshit story. I'll start:

How to tell if a story is bullshit: people speak in complete sentences as if the author remembers every single word.

I know it was a fake. I looked it up before hand, and I figured I'd post it anyway in a "look at what these poo poo head dudebros are trying to pass off for real" but I didn't write that out for whatever reason, my bad.

Also something I've noticed: After favoriting the STDH.txt and PYF AUG threads I decided to look for Facebook groups with similar intentions and it turns out that people who are into this sort of thing are usually pretty loving lovely. Apparently making fun of weirdos online attracts a certain breed of rear end in a top hat/dudebro/racists.

Just FYI guys, he totally lost his virginity when he was twenty, not when in his late thirties or whatever. Because you know, that would just be sad.

I wonder how many people know of or are friends with people who are virgins in their late twenties+. I don't mean people who are not having sex because of religion or they physically can't because they're disabled or severely mentally retarded, I mean people who would have no qualms about getting laid but can't because they're just so terrible

A family friend who is in his mid thirties lives in his mom's apartment with his younger brother (also a virgin in his late twenties). Their mom just recently moved out and my friend only just recently stopped sleeping in a bunk bed with his brother.

The younger brother now lives in the living room and has made it his personal arcade. The older brother turned his bedroom (formerly his mom's bedroom) into a video game room complete with one of those reclining gamer chairs.

This is all pretty egregious but add onto it all the fact that they're both terrible virgins who will always be virgins and it's mind blowing.

The older brother works as a security guard. The apartment is still in their mom's name and she's been there since they were little, so her rent is really cheap. Plus she pays part of it and gives the younger brother an allowance.

Three people, one armed with a tire iron, run terrified at this guy's work knife. Yeah, I'm sure that would deter them and not just get you beaten with a tire iron. I mean, that's if this racist poo poo had, in fact, ever happened.

"Yo dawg", the leader of the group said, clutching his genitals through his sagging pants and visible plaid boxers, "we need'uh jump homie, ma' battery's skraight busted, ya heard me?"

It was at this point that I, in all my intelligent whiteness, decided these 'thugs' were up to no good. "I've got something that can help, 'homie'", I said with preternatural calmness. In a flash the steel was in my hands, cold and eager to taste blood again. The light reflected from my blade's wavering hamon, dancing across the eyes of the nearest gang banger.

"Awww sheeeeeit, this cracka's got hanzo steel!", the fattest hoodie muttered, dropping his can of Arizona Watermelon iced tea.

As quickly as they came, so they disappeared; their athletic legs carrying them back to the ghetto. I faltered as I sheathed my weapon, its insatiable demonic lust for combat echoing through my mind. "Not today, Trump..."

"Not today."

I'm late to the party (and I suspect you've got your answer already ("a lot")), but I can think of one off the top of my head. She's a petite Japanese-American gal I work with. That description alone should pretty much guarantee she could be constantly walking through a veritable forest of nerd dick if she wanted to, but she's so goddamn abrasive and bitchy that nobody is willing to go near her. Anything and everything anyone does or says is wrong according to this woman, and she has no qualms about making sure you know it.

Of course, she bitches constantly on social media and irl about the total lack of nice guys out there...

It always blows my mind when there are women out there who are still virgins. Like as a woman you can go out and have a near 100% chance of getting laid with a moderately attractive dude just by virtue of being a woman and being moderately attractive yourself, so I can only imagine the wretched personality someone must have to be that unfuckable.

No he didn't. Your four year old doesn't grasp the concept of superheroes being orphans.

"This is the greatest shirt I'll ever own"



This is STDH in that she didn't put it up to show off her kinda funny shirt that she then had to explain because she "works in a call center", she posted it to show off her boobs and get free internet points from horny dudes.



This may not be STDH because it is such a prissy passive aggressive thing that I wouldn't put it past an Imgurian to do this.

Here's some really nice STDH that was debunked: http://imgur.com/gallery/wKRdJ



Hmm yes and the fact that this is a brand new account doesn't prove that this is bullshit.



Gonna take a break from STDH for a second and wonder why in the hell this is so popular.

Usually they're hocking an agenda, is why. Upvote if you believe all females are conniving whores!

I think for me it's the initial intent to make people believe this lie actually happened. Like if I told a story about how I saved a baby from a burning building, and I told it in a really entertaining way, and then someone eventually found out I made the whole thing up, it would be ridiculous for someone to say "I don't care if it happened or not, it's a good story." The person saying I'm a liar is absolutely right. Even if my story included some moral resolution that people found to be enlightening in some way it doesn't stop me from being a lying sack of poo poo, and it doesn't stop the people accepting my story from being gullible shills.

As for the boobs thing: dudes post pictures of their tshirts all the time, but a less funny shirt can make it to the front page if there's a pair of boobs behind it. Post that same shirt laying on a table and see what happens. It's the exact same content, but I doubt it would receive as much attention as it does with breasts. Not to mention that the comments section is filled with perverts talking about her tits.

How does this even happen?



How does a dog "sense" you've had a bad day? They're not psychic. This dude positioned his dog to hug him and had his girlfriend or mom photograph it.



I want you to stop answering your own questions.

I'm going to guess it's also a lot of people who either have convinced themselves they think "porn is disgusting" but still really want to see a boob or it's people who want deniability if they are caught looking at softcore stuff.

I can definitely see a large number of people being in denial about masturbating to porn as if it's below them (and girls in porn are dirty whores you know) but jerking it to a clean wholesome red head with an amazing rack and expert photographer is perfectly acceptable.

I can also see a large group of people who think their favorite website should do exactly what they want it to do by virtue of them being on it all the time and being very vocally aggressive about how they think a multi-million dollar company should function. Someone coming in and saying "we're not going to allow porn on the front page any more" is akin to some kind of government overreach and "well it wouldn't be there in the first place if the majority of the imgur upvoting userbase didn't really really like it!" is a perfect argument because "democracy!"

PC master race is some of the most obnoxious Internet poo poo that I've ever had the misfortune of seeing first hand. It's everywhere and now it's becoming the accepted "culture" of modern pc gaming. Even that terrible pc-centric event at e3 this year was all about flaunting pc master race poo poo. It's just smug bullshit meant to make nerds feel better about themselves in literally the least important way possible. Console people might be bad but they're just delusional. console gamers don't have an active subculture of smug nerds waiting to critique the fact that you choose to play bideo gaymes differently than they do. I don't know a single console gamer who would go to someone's house and say "you have a gaming PC? Why not just get an Xbox One?" but I absolutely know several pc gamers who have on at least one occasion gone to someone's house and told them why they're wrong for owning a console.
