Norwegian body scrub?? You mean FRIGGIN SOAP? Ain't that no body scrub yo.

Side note: Lolita is a fantastic book and I recommend you read it.
onthispapermoon
I agree, it's one of the best books I've ever read.

I've always preferred stories like this that follow a villain with few redeeming qualities who is clearly in the wrong.

That Lolita book sounds like an interesting read. What's it about?
MadGeneral
A man who falls in love with the underage daughter of the woman he's dating. It's a tragedy.

He was sent to the most desolate Walmart in America, in Alaska or something because of a Facebook contest... And the hacker known as 4chan.
AsAnAmerican
He was sent to an island in Alaska! I know because I recently moved here and people still talk about it..
ConspicuousSpellingError
I think they sent him to Alaska or something.
AsAnAmerican
Kodiak to be precise.

Wasn't 4chan, however. It was SA. I got mixed up.

So dumb that they called it off, I mean, votes are votes, aren't they?
Teh4ChanHacker
Not when they want to discriminate against the person with the highest number of votes. Or when they think the system was tampered with.

Just goes to show how Pitbull is a better sport than Taylor Swift. She could have done better. Becky let me down.

and pitbull going to alaska, can't forget that.

4chan didn't start that. A reporter in Boston got that going, then everyone one jumped on board

That wasn't 4chan that was SomethingAwful

He performed at a WalMart if I remember correctly, didn't he?

Not just Alaska.. a small island in Alaska, where I now live. Its seriously one of their biggest accomplishments.

I was in the Coast Guard there! Can't wait to go back...

I'm from anchorage. Awesome to see a fellow Alaskan on here. What island are you on?
runswithmoose
Pitbull was sent to Kodiak.
ayokenzobenzo
When and where was this? Which island?
NeglectfulStranger
Kodiak, a google search should show what happened.
Spiffycamel
So it was a good Kodiak moment?
Tacotuesdayeveryday
You live in an island in Alaska? With Internet? Satellite or what?
AsAnAmerican
We have internet.. but there's no such thing as unlimited and it goes at often. Put it this way.. I miss comcast.
runswithmoose
You would be surprised. I live in Alaska now and many of the remote locations have better Internet than my hometown in Michigan...
krauraurgg
But from what I remember he actually went, making him look cool rather than silly.
NeglectfulStranger
He got the key to the city and basically every member of the Coast Guard stationed there showed up. Definitely cool.
RiseOfThePlanetOfTheHams
Alaskan here, never heard anything of him coming to Alaska.
DesiredUsernameWasTaken
I don't understand your point.
ImaTallAssDude
why are you dowmvoted? it was an honest mistake?
krauraurgg
Probably because "I never heard about it" is a pretty weak and irrelevant counterpoint. A quick search would also tell you that he did go.
AsAnAmerican
He came to Kodiak.

He did go http://www.eonline.com/news/334247/pitbull-visits-alaska-walmart-after-internet-exile-prank-goes-viral

4Chan has never been old 4chan. Ever since I joined it in 2008 or something people have been raging over cancer and all that shit. Newfags >

Tumblr ain't got shit on the hellstorm that was Boxxy. 4chan is just not what people seem to think it is.

is cancer.

what do you mean?

I think he's trying to act cool by saying he's been there for a long time.

4Chan is SJWChan now boys
platy3point1415
moot fucked it up
uhCanadian
fuck off m8 no he didn't
REOSpeedWeed
Well it all started when the mods banished the 4chanians then went the great migration towards 8chan the promise land
uhCanadian
8chan is shit and you know it lol
TestPattern
Newfriends claiming it has anything to do with SJWs when that ain't it. They're the problem. It's them.
MostIndeedlySo
Also moot is stepping down from (if not also selling) 4chan.
newplayerhasarrived
Actuaaly know a mod and moot has decided not too cause he is getting yoo many death threats
ComeOnAndSlam
He's stepping down as Administrator. He's still going to keep the site running, and is not going to sell it.
SanAnStrangler
As a person who's frequented 4chan since around 2004, I do too. It was a good time. It started getting real bad around 2008 tho..
ArtoriasTheAbyssInvader
That's actually around the time I started going. You wouldn't be talking about that whole Boxxy thing would you?
jimmityjammity
It became 95% populated by people who thought they 'got it' after reading 2 days of threads then wanting some spotlight for their self worth
SanAnStrangler
Just... people accusing each other of being cancer, and yeah, the princess of /b/ bullshit... Just general fuckery. Became to popular...
importantpersonwithimportantopinions
Its become the reddit shit hole also mods ban literally everything now. 8chan is where all the old users went so I highly reccomend it
NormalNorman
Ok
BatsuitsNipples
so go to 8chan for the cp
odraencoded
I would go to 8chan but I mostly visit /ic/ and I don't know the 8chan equivalent.
importantpersonwithimportantopinions
/ac/ is Artwork/critique. There are also literally hundreds of boards, many concerning art, and you can also create your own boards.
odraencoded
That sounds a lot more like reddit than 4chan.
ineedtoremember
And furries/pedophilia/raiding/doxxing. 8chan has more diverse boards for sure.
aykyle
SJW mods banned a lot of people. I think they moved to 8chan. No idea though
Monarchist
Yah anything that's mentioned remotely about feminism or actual discussion on topics SJW's are so keen on gets banned and the thread deleted
BeardKhan
False
aykyle
Care to grace me with your information on how it is false and enlighten me on the wise truth you will soon bestow upon me?
BeardKhan
Maybe dont believe everything everyone tells you.
SecretlyNSA
moot himself said in the q&a that there were no new mods and that all of the 'chat logs' were 'fake but funny'. Also it came from /pol/ 1/2
SecretlyNSA
where they believe the jews are the cause of everything and other bs so Id take it with a grain of salt.
PizzaPizzington
dumb
aykyle
They banned anyone who ever mentioned "gamergate" in a post. It got pretty ridiculous
importantpersonwithimportantopinions
Yeah they moved to 8chan
Irishda
Right along with the pedophiles too. Go 8chan!
CaptainButtbeard
Yeah, most of the "classic" 4channers moved to fullchan.

Uh... no.

You're not wrong. This place is super shitty.
JohnTheRipper
I like it a hell of alot better than forchin. 2 years after getting on the /b/oat, things started to go downhill. stayed on /o/. came here.

Same here. I used to come here and on reddit and be like "Pfft, peasants.". 4chan ain't what it used to be, at all. #Poolsclosedforaids
JohnTheRipper
I thought 4chan was god tier. Prepare yer finger box, boy. I'm goin in dry.
crashtestzombie
are the rumors true? was there a mass migration to 8chan?
JohnTheRipper
most of the old mods and old fags shipped off to 8chan but the usual users are scattered across the rest of the chans.
cuillere
There was somekind of migration, but most oldfags are either here, on Reddit, or on IRC channels. IMVHO, 8chan sucks ass. Major ass.
kevinallover

Irishda
I was on 4chan regularly for about a year but I grew out of it. It became increasingly clear it was just basically a place for 16 year olds

some fun shit happened here and there but it was mainly shit posting and bait threads after about 2 years of being on it. so i fucked off.
