Shit thread

The Vark memes and Boomer "sip" memes really shit this board up. Now every fucking post is following one of those 2 formats and people are realizing how shit and annoying they are.

>>10920392
"I needs it bruh" is actually a funny meme though. Just posting popular shit and going
>meme
Isn't funny

>>10922707
There is no such thing as a funny meme.

>>10922719
Eh I think that depends on the meme I mean intristically memes aren't funny in and of themselves. All a meme is , is a transfer of information between a group of people, they could be words, symbols,phrases, actions, etc. People think "meme" means something that's popular but that's completely wrong.

>>10922771
repeating something from someone else is never funny. It's sad because it's not original. the fact that it is a repetition takes away any humor it might have had, especially when it's the nth time you've seen/heard it.

>>10922794
Well it's not the repeating that's funny, it's the manipulation. Don't get me wrong, the LOLCATZ / Advice Animals format that got so popular and still is today (which was really ripped from YTMND) was never really that funny to begin with but things like "Socially Awkward Penguin" or "bachelor frog" were only funny because they were relatable.

I mean look at the current 4chan memes,they have ALWAYS been about shops or altering photos, even back with cockmongler or longcat they were just simple funny pictures. But now we have pepe and Wojack which evolved from, idk what to call those reaction images. It's pretty interesting how memes popularized so much and how nobody really is credited even though we All know they are "stolen" ideas. Shit people made A TON of money off of "Trollface"

>it's the manipulation.
The point is that while the manipulation might have been funny originally, it's no longer funny once it's been repeated.

It's also not funny because it's a bunch of dumb frivolous clutter that gets in the way of having a serious discussion.

>>10922858
>The point is that while the manipulation might have been funny originally, it's no longer funny once it's been repeated.
Well this right here is a huge reason why picture based memes stick around and evolve so fast because there's infinite versions to be made especially in this day and age where templates are so easy to create.

>It's also not funny because it's a bunch of dumb frivolous clutter that gets in the way of having a serious discussion.
I agree with this 100%, it went from a few people telling a funny inside joke to 100 people making pointless post to fit in. It shits up the board

>>10922883
>100 people making pointless post to fit in
That's what confuses me the most. What's the point of "fitting in" on an anon board anyway? It doesn't make sense on any level.

I think it's an easy way for people who lurk that genuinely wouldn't have anything interesting to add to the conversation can make a post and get replies. The thing that sets 4chan apart from Reddit is the constant activity, threads move fast like chat rooms vs Reddit that's more of an actual message board.

Like look at Facebook, you make a post, it gets a bunch of replies right then and there, then once it stops it stops. People don't revisit threads often.

>That's what I don't get though. Why do people want replies that lack substance? What's the point/benefit?

To be involved, validation, just bored. It's like being at a party and walking around, you can either hop into a group of people and join their conversation. Or you find people chilling and hang with them and start your own convo.

It's like small talk almost I guess

>>10923016
Yeah, but on the internet there's always an opportunity for a more quality interaction. Why not seek out that instead of settling for dumb small talk or shitposting? (or whatever else you want to call it).

>>10922957
>this projection

Maryland is a fucking shithole. It’s not even worth elaborating how shit they are.

>>10922968
Virginia drivers are pretty decent, on par with DC drivers.

>>10923045
Shitposting would be the internet equivalent to small talk I guess.

But to be completely honest I think the answer to your question is. People don't know how to communicate with each other. They seek instant gratification or they troll because it's easy to be negative and act better than others. People seek pressure free social interactions and "dopamine feedback loops"

Like me and you having this natural, casual conversation isn't as rare as you think BUT most people don't take online interactions as seriously as they do the FEELING of getting ANY reaction at all. So they sacrifice substance for quantity of post. Like I'm willing to bet A LOT of these meme post are done by 2-3 people who post the same post every day.
Check my picture out to see what a Dopamine Feedback Loop (compulsion loop) is. It's been highly studied in memetics and social media

Bong here. Bought this on my holidays. It's good on griddled tuna steak and that's it.

>they do the FEELING of getting ANY reaction at all. So they sacrifice substance for quantity of post. Like I'm willing to bet A LOT of these meme post are done by 2-3 people who post the same post every day.

That's what I don't understand though. I don't get ANY feeling from a random or off-topic post. And a negative reply brings a negative feeling. I don't desire either of those. I have a hard time understanding that there are people who do. To use your example, I fail to see how a "negative" reply produces a dopamine hit.

and even if they do derive some small amount of pleasure from it, I have an even harder time grasping why they would settle for that when they could have a more serious discussion instead, about whatever topic happens to float their boat. It's not like real life where you might be stuck somewhere and have to do something lame to pass the time. If you have the internet then you have access to literally anything. so why chase little dopamine hits when you can get big ones?

Some people just want to be noticed, big reason some kids act out. Getting any response at all validated them. In terms of social media people can only use like what , 146 characters? So people had to dumb down as such. It's a big reason why shortening words into acronyms picked up and why emojis have replaced whole sentences.

Instant gratification man, there's no big dopamine hits online. Nothing like stepping on the beach or watching a sunset or talking to your mom on the phone. Online can only mimic minor hits

>>10923126
Here's a better example
Why would you spend 5 years learning yoga and meditation to reach enlightenment when you can take a hit of LSD or Smoke Hash and get that in a few hours. Meditation stays with you forever but you sacrifice THAT for the instant fleeting gratification of getting high.

>>10923126
>Online can only mimic minor hits
I disagree. Or perhaps I didn't explain myself well enough.

For example, a person could post copypasta and then get a few minor hits when people groan or tell him his shit's stale. Or, that same person could instead go elsewhere and engage in a serious discussion of whatever his/her personal interests might be. Surely that would be a bigger hit than yet another meme reply?

I don't think that example fits what I was talking about.
It takes just as much effort to, say, come on 4chan and post a meme vs. going on a board aligned with one of a person's hobbies and discussing that?

If our hypothetical anon enjoys kung fu movies, then why not go chat it up with fellow kung fu movie buffs rather than post wojack on ck? Of course, kung fu movies was just an example, and could be replaced with whatever interest anon might have, regardless of what it is.

That person might not be able to engage in a serious discussion is what I mean. They might not type well or they just have nothing constructive to talk about or they are afraid people won't like their topic.

It's an anonymous board but people are still sensitive. Like what's worse strangers thinking your copy pasta or meme is stale or strangers thinking your ACTUAL thoughts and opinions and beliefs are stupid?

I mean if we're talking about a literal retard then sure, but I think that most people have no problem having a serious discussion.

why would that matter online, where nobody knows who you are unless you choose to post using your real name?

>>Like what's worse strangers thinking your copy pasta or meme is stale or....
Wouldn't they be the same given that it's all anonymous?

>I mean if we're talking about a literal retard then sure, but I think that most people have no problem having a serious discussion.

You'd be surprised, but joke post might just be an internet culture thing honestly people probably don't come on certain websites with the intention of learning or engaging

>why would that matter online, where nobody knows who you are unless you choose to post using your real name?

Hey man people take a lot of pride on their thoughts. Anonymous or not

>Wouldn't they be the same given that it's all anonymous?
Nah if you give your actual opinions and a 100 people you don't know all shit on it, it will make you question your stance. But some people don't give a fuck. 4chan is a great place to test theories or ideas imo

>>10923201
>honestly people probably don't come on certain websites with the intention of learning or engaging
Mindboggling.

>>Hey man people take a lot of pride on their thoughts. Anonymous or not
Sure, but if the criticism is invalid then why would it hurt their pride? Wouldn't they just write it off as shitposting, baiting, or the product of stupidity?

I mean, If I post something and someone tells me that I'm wrong, I either just learned something or I don't care about the reply because I know it to be mistaken.

>> it will make you question your stance
I can't say that I can empathize with that. Though I accept that there are people who might react that way. I've heard it said that "if people tell you you're stupid often enough you start to believe it". I never "got" that statement and I don't think it's correct, but then again people are different, after all, perhaps some really do react to that.

>> I never "got" that statement and I don't think it's correct, but then again people are different, after all, perhaps some really do react to that.

I mean look at trolling or internet bullying, some people really get their feelings hurt. Like I used to fuck around and be a dick online in the early 2000s but seeing people like Chrischan or that Jessie Slaughter girl crying and begging people to stop really got me thinking how much it really does effect people. You can argue "if they can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen" but the internet can be used to build people up too. It's just we are in a day and age where everybody questions motives of nice people and thinks they want something (views, awards, etc) but NOBODY questions bullies because everybody assumes all people are mean intristically

>>10923277
>NOBODY questions bullies because everybody assumes all people are mean intristically

I think it's more of the fact that a bully's intentions are clearly known, whereas otherwise it's a guessing game.

Don't get me wrong, I think bullying is horrible, but the thing about online bullying is that it's pretty simple to avoid it. It's not like bullying at work or school where you HAVE to physically go to a certain location where the bullying takes place. Assuming, of course, we're talking about simple bullying and not someone getting doxxed.

I don't think what happened to Jessi or Chrischan was right, but then again they were also at least somewhat complicit in their own problems by feeding the fire.

>>10923319
>also at least somewhat complicit in their own problems by feeding the fire.

this right here. they could've just turn off the computer and walk away but their egos kept thirsting for attention.

>>10923319
>I think it's more of the fact that a bully's intentions are clearly known, whereas otherwise it's a guessing game.

I agree with this

Yeah I think it's more so a bigger effect on children and older people. I work retail and I see and talk to kids and parents all the time. Kids take social media VERY seriously, it's literally a huge part of their life. They watch YouTube all the time and follow the lives of kids just like them and live vicariously through them. It's really fascinating how reality television kind of set up this new attitude and world

>I don't think what happened to Jessi or Chrischan was right, but then again they were also at least somewhat complicit in their own problems by feeding the fire.

Yeah for sure I was just using them as an example of major instances. Chris was a bizarre case regardless for a while I thought it was literally all an act

>>10923340
>this right here. they could've just turn off the computer and walk away but their egos kept thirsting for attention.

Yeah the ego is a crazy powerful thing. Especially in Chris case, he had multiple times he could have left but he ended up literally going crazy from it. It's kind of sad, like the whole story is a cautionary tale of social media

>>10923340
>but their egos kept thirsting for attention.

I'm sure a lot of it (at least with CWC) had nothing to do with "attention" but rather had to do with an autistic obsession with things being correct. I've often been in discussions where I've been accused of replying "for attention" when attention was literally the last thing on my mind. Instead my reasons for replying were simply to correct errors. Some people have a hard time with letting mistakes go unanswered. But that's the 'tism talking.

>>10923372
Idk man Chris was an artist and a personality before he got roped into the trolls. His mental problems aside he was a product of the early internet obsessions with message boards and information sharing. Like if Chris was doing his Sonicu stuff NOW people would feel so bad for him he'd be on Ellen and get a Gofundme for real art supplies and sell merch. It's a way different world now

Back then it was just funny to fuck with him and white knights barely existed for people like him

>>10923372
that's a good point. with cwc it's probably some combination of all those factors. there's no doubt he likes the attention though. ever since he was a child and interviewed on tv (and the ensuing attention it brought him) i dont think he never could let it go. he's just kept seeking that attention ever since, why else would he even put his stuff out on the internet in the first place?

>>10923490
>why else would he even put his stuff out on the internet in the first place?

I admit I don't know much about cwc, but I doubt attention is the only motivator for people posting stuff online. I've shared a lot of old technical info about old trucks online, not because I want attention but rather I don't want it to be forgotten and perhaps it might help other people who share my hobby. I've benefited from online info that others have posted when I have a problem I need solving, so I figure why not share the info I have in case someone else is looking for it? Of course that may not apply in his case but not every example of online posting has anything to do with attention.

Wow this thread related to food and cooking sure is enlightening and enjoyable. I'm glad people set aside off- topic conversation.

Early on it was just him sharing his comics and people found his character so ridiculous it caught on. But it slowly turned into a circus. The internet has always taken advantage of vanity and pride, it's a driving force of social media
