woa

:D

These little comic strips are the only reason to come back to this thread.

yeah because what's always been missing from ILX is some 4chan crap

4chan crap has been floating around ILX for years, where have you been?

yesterday's 4chan crap, today's ilx non-meme, tomorrow's ponderous slate article

I think they're out of ideas, so last one again (for now)

xp next week's nyt trend piece, two months from now Atlantic paragraph

kanyus interruptus

4chan crap has been floating around ILX for years, where have you been?

not really

You realize I've been here forever, right

a lot of "internet" shit is 4chan/SA derived w/o ppl really knowing. lolcats were a 4chan thing originally i think

"After a certain point the internet joke must either become more grand and abstract (the girl in the shower comic) or horribly tasteless (Chris Brown beating Rhianna). But what does the interactivity of Web 2.0 mean for our society when it joins forces with the anonymuncules? We here at Slate are thinking this through ponderously and academically, and, as Susan Sontag once noted about blogging trends before she died..." - excerpt from that future slate article

x-post

if you want to say this place is like Fark or College Humor or whatever then go ahead, personally I hold it in a bit higher regard

i always had the impression that lolcats grew out of SA's 'image macro' phenom?

well, he's doing "Run This Town" w/ Jay and Rihanna...hasn't been any indication that he's going to do an interview or statement or anything, although i wouldn't be surprised if he did (xpost)

if some publicists are about their business Taylor Swift will run on and interrupt "Run This Town" with full consent & involvement of all, meme lasts another week, all happy

yeah i'm guessing that's how the cold open for the SNL premiere will go

She'll interrupt and then bang out her own verse.

Or, you know, Kanye will just be hungover and give a rote performance.

wish I'd have thought of that.

Can we start shifting this thread into a lil mama discussion as well?

Are you trying to T-Pain me?

@textsfromlastnight (404): i hope kanye doesn't show up to patrick swayze's funeral. " i'll let you get back to your funeral in a minute...but michael jackson had the best death of the year. just sayinnn

i was just IMed a 4chan comic depicting that exact same thing ugh

I voted for Obama and all, but I don't know how I feel about a president who watches the VMAs

I'm glad Kanye is standing up for musical underdogs like Beyonce. Somebody's gotta help the up-and-coming artists out.

Get 'em while they're still hot

whiney i'm really proud of you i'ma let you finish but strongo had one of the best dramatic re-entrances of all time

adults watch this shit?

Kanye's only justifiable comment wd've been "Barack Obama doesn't care about black people."

kanye v obama best beef ever

kanye on leno kinda painful to watch

kanye crashing the stage was a dick move (although i'm too entertained to be mad at him) but bringing up his mother was worse than anything kanye did yesterday. ick.

concur, even if Kanye made his mother's death a prominent part of his whole public persona at the time, that's his right as 1) an artist and 2) a guy who's dealing with a huge loss. it's not for anybody else to wave that at him

on the other hand, Kanye not really in any position to tell anybody to quit bein' a dick

I can't believe I learned Patrick Swayze died via 4chan joeks

Kanye referred to what "my mother would've said" in his first blog apology, don't think it was necessarily off-limits or surprising for Leno to go there.

what did he say

i can't believe people are complaining about 4chan-style jokes on a thread about kanye doing something cuh-ray at the VMAs. what were you hoping to find on this thread exactly?

I can't believe I learned Patrick Swayze died via 4chan joeks

I'm actually surprised you didn't learn about it via WoW.

EMP paper ideas

I can't believe I learned Patrick Swayze died via 4chan joeks

was thinking this same thing.

I can't believe Patrick Swayze died via 4chan joeks

i can't believe 4chan jokes havent died

I've never been one of those guys with Beyonce posters on the bedroom wall but hot damn does she look adorable in every one of the GIFs posted.
