The funny place you'd see whenever you looked up something related to fitness is dead.
With it the countless funny threads leave too.
My favorite was when some people there convinced reporters that Elliot Roger
That one,
Was
Hooked on Creatine. I can't find the compilation image that had all the reports and emails and everything people sent but people on bb (and some on /fit/) spread the meme that creatine was a hardcore barely legal drug that induces roid rage.
And some guy sperged about a miscer thing
Elliot Rodger wasn't actually on there? Please remove this disinformation from such a culturally important post. Didn't he have a whole thread about wanting people to mire his BMW? I thought that was one of the places his online presence really started to go viral before he did the deed
e: I'm fricking right that's where he was first posting his videos online how DARE you suggest he wasn't the most famous miscer
Misc is a fricking treasure of the old internet this is a major loss

With the recent announcement of Ubislop dropping their presentation on Butt Creed Swarthy Edition in Japan, I took a trip to a subreddit of people without standards to check how they were handling it. As these people not only play, but actively look forward to Ubishit games, they are accustomed to advanced coping methods:
https://old.reddit.com/r/assassinscreed/comments/1fohi0l/ubisoft_has_reportedly_now_backed_out_of/
https://old.reddit.com/r/assassinscreed/comments/1fo8ydg/ubisoft_has_cancelled_their_plans_for_tgs/
Apparently the new Starshit game isn't performing well and there is talk of a corporate takeover (if anyone has info on this, I'll pin your comment). These items among others are being blamed for the seeming delay of the next game, and discussion of a certain Black samurai is banned, so that couldn't possibly have anything to do with it.
Some of my favorite comments:
Well with the doodoo butt release of Star Wars Outlaws and their stock going down it'd be in their best interest to actually make this game good lmao they need a W cause they've been taking Ls up the butt
I didn't get the game at release, so I imagine things have changed in the first two weeks, but I'd really like to know why people think Outlaws is a bad game
Story's good, gameplay's fun, visuals are absolutely gorgeous... I just can't understand where all that negativity comes from
Admitting to this may be more embarrassing than admitting to being an Butt Creed fan
anyone who has played Outlaws knows its actually a darn good game. the world is stunning. its like living in Star Wars
I saw one gameplay video showing the protagonist doing a takedown on a stormtrooper by punching him in his armored helmet and knocking him out...with her bare hands.
Yeah the world is pretty but the gameplay just looks dumb, like they shoehorned in mechanics without actually making them fit in the world
Guessing you've never seen a single piece of Star Wars media if her punching helmets with her fists is a problem 😂 lemme guess, you're gonna move the goalpost and all of a sudden, it made sense in the movies, clone wars, etc.
Thanks for the reminder that Star Wars is just a shit franchise in general.
If it needs a delay then fair enough
Just means I'll have more time for Dragon Age I guess lol
It's like all these people want to do is play terrible games…
Oh great… awesome news. This game is literally what I'm most excited for this year, specially with college massacring me. And now apparently they're gonna fricking delay it. Incredible. Does wonders for my will power. First Mirage is delayed for months, now this. I'm gonna lose my mind.
Ahhhh I have to wait an extra month to play my boring, buggy game that's a palette swap of the last one I had to wait for! I'm literally going insane!
A delay of a few months would be ok, but I swear if it's "indefinitely delayed" or outright canceled, I'm going after all the fricking grifters that pushed them to do this!
You cannot tell me all the negativity hasn't impacted Shadows at all!
This guy gets so angry about his vidya possibly being canceled that he starts threatening to fedpost. Everyone point and laugh!
That's uh... strange.
Unless reception is harsher in Japan that reported on?
Could it perhaps be that actual Japanese people are upset with the game and it's not just western chuds like we've been told..?
I'm sure people won't blow this out of proportion, what am I saying, this is the AC fanbase, we've not been happy since 2010
Imagine willingly playing though and discussing games for a franchise you haven't actually enjoyed in 14 years…
The most unbearable "anti woke" YouTuber you know is going to make so many videos on this
The worst part about this shitty game being delayed is that the chuds will take it as a victory!!!
They were going to showcase 3 games. XDefiant, AC and Star Wars. It was supposed to be an online presentation. It has an absolutely nothing to do with controversies and most likely technical difficulties. Even if the problems were directly related to AC (they aren't) they wouldn't not show show games already released because of them…
most likely technical difficulties
They could have got some threats form people. Ik reddit likes to pretend that Japan doesn't care about shadows but a good loud minority does.
threats
My assumption is that they don't want more backlash from the locals lol
Thats only if you believe that there is huge uproar over the game in Japan, which there isnt.
Denial isn't just a river in Egypt.
This is just scratching the surface of the cope iceberg. If the game gets delayed, or even outright cancelled, this sub may implode on itself!

My favorite drama is wingcucks falling to pieces when confronted with a mildly technocratic topic. Let's see how /r/conservative handles basic macroeconomics.
Everyone thinks the Fed is working for the Democrats (the Fed chair is a Republican appointed by Donald Trump)
One guy thinks the Fed is trying to get re-elected:
One guy is suspicious that there was another rate cut four years ago. What could have happened four years ago to cause a rate cut???
One guy thinks the Federal Reserve personally cut his mortgage rate by 0.50%

!oldfags !chiraqis @snallygaster this is a real deep cut. Read while listening to Dumb Hardcore EP for period-appropriate ambience.
Background
In the early-mid 2000s, LightBlueExtra was a Chicago area music BBS with a focus on the punk and hardcore scenes. My parents would never let me go to shows, but my older brother was in the scene and back in the day he used to go to see bands at The Fireside Bowl and post on LBE (he's not in this thread, if you're wondering). It was a fun, laid-back forum with lots of random shitposting and their own custom word filters. One thing that made it different from other internet forums is that almost everyone on it knew each other in real life. The core group of users and jannies ("Elitist fucks") all went to middle school together or something. By the 2000s they all had shitty new grad jobs, and were going to see each others' bands play, sleeping with other people in the scene and occasionally internet bullshit would spill over into actual IRL drama or vice versa.
I sometimes lurked, but I was too scared to post with the cool 20-somethings. I always dreamed that I would grow up, get my bellybutton pierced, and pretend to be a cool bitch on the internet. But then, by the time I was in my 20s, Facebook, Instagram and Tumblr had killed forum culture. Today, LBE is a graveyard, and I was shocked to discover it's still online at all.
Setup
On January 31, 2005, OP threw down the gauntlet.
The link is broken now, but I found a snippet of the article on another old forum
By BEN FELLER, AP Education Writer WASHINGTON
The way many high school students see it, government censorship of newspapers may not be a bad thing, and flag burning is hardly protected free speech. It turns out the First Amendment is a second-rate issue to many of those nearing their own adult independence, according to a study of high school attitudes released Monday.
The original amendment to the Constitution is the cornerstone of the way of life in the United States, promising citizens the freedoms of religion, speech, press and assembly. Yet, when told of the exact text of the First Amendment, more than one in three high school students said it goes "too far" in the rights it guarantees. Only half of the students said newspapers should be allowed to publish freely without government approval of stories.
If you ever want a concise illustration of how American culture has changed over the last two decades, you could do worse than this: A bunch of 20-somethings were wringing their hands that a single youngun thought unpopular opinions should be censored. In 2005, 83% of high schoolers believed in
One poster waxed philosophical about grass and summer and debating important issues or something, but I just wanted to highlight his banger signature. Someone here should steal that. Somebody ping dinochads!
Soon enough, in the way of all forums, the grammar nazis arrived, ready to throw down and start shit with Dvorakcels
(I actually kind of love this guy. I hope he hasn't mellowed at all the last 19 years and we could be a power couple with massive egos picking fights with everyone over its/it's
)
This threat is funnier because unlike on most messageboards, when someone on LBE says "why don't you say that to my face?" there's at least a chance they will at the next show.
The Grammar King from Sorrow Mountain would be a good band name.
Anyway, it goes on like that for a while. I'm not going to screenshot the whole thread but !clinklickers it's worth a click because there's some medium-funny posts in the first few pages. By February, it looked like the thread had petered out to a natural ending:
Punchline
But then, seventeen months later, a new challenger enters the ring: A self-professed 13 year old Australian downie...
Everything about this kid is peak 2006 and my heart is full of warmth and nostalgia to see it. Remember when people just posted whatever stupid obnoxious shit they wanted, and it wasn't about AI or politics or anything except a teenager acting retarded?
Same.
The regulars mostly ignore him for a while, but he keeps trying to get a rise out of someone...
By now, some people are getting into the spirit:
#69
I didn't realize TRUTH was this old, tbqh.
That could have been meeeee!!! I could have been the bratty sister acting like a twat on my brother's forum and embarrassing him in front of his cool friends.
Everyone kind of thinks it's fake, or a sockpuppet or a @carpathianflorist alt - because really, what the fuck? How does some random Australian child even stumble on an obscure local forum?
And then he's back the next day! And the crazy thing is he might not actually be a fake...
...do Burgers say "stoked" and "legend"?
He also starts DMing people:
Two days later, he's back again:
A hundred posts in, he finally the OP and has some tHoUgHtS to contribute:
Our precocious troll makes another account specially for this single post:
He goes on for a few more pages, posting a bunch of random links like this blog about 'small meat processors' (lol) and a guide to finding the g-spot https://www.seductionscience.com/seduction/g-spot-376.htm
Some users are finally starting to be more annoyed than amused:
The old internet was great. Why do we never get random children trolling on this site?
Zing.
'elp, 'elp, im being stereo typed!
I feel like you could make this same joke on rdrama today and get DC for it. Is dramatard culture directly descended from genX music boards?
Our little Roo declares victory:
Hey, someone see if bigwetbutts.com stood the test of time.
But that wasn't the last we'd see of our hero. A little over a week later, surprise!
@Harmless weighs in with the wisdom of the ages:
Oh, but has the trolling metaphorically boomeranged on him?
(I forget how it worked, but "negative rep" was like a downvote or something)
Cuckaroos can't compete.
And then, two weeks later, our protagonist fires off one last riposte before riding off into the sunset, never to be seen again:
