the 4chan bible
4chan.org is the Final Boss of the Internet. I described it in an article for Uncyclopedia soon after discovering it:
The 4chan imageboard is the winner in the competition for World’s Most Work-unsafe Website. If you look at 4chan from your work computer, your monitor explodes, smoke comes out of your PC and your Ethernet cable melts. Then Networks come over to your desk and beat the fucking crap out of you personally.
Q. Explosion, smoke, melt, crap, got it. Are LCD monitors subject to explosion too, though?
A. That depends. Do you feel lucky, punk?It’s not particularly good for viewing at home, either. My wife told me that if I ever browsed 4chan in her presence again, I would be divorced. I had to concede this was entirely fair and reasonable.
4chan is where Internet memes come from. LOLcats, Rickrolling, O RLY?
You’ll note I’ve taken care not to link 4chan anywhere in this post. There’s a reason for that.
“It’s just a little bit too retarded down there at the center of everything.”
