Reddit hosts an AMA with Barack Obama and he, and he alone, to this day seems to think of it as some sort of haven for pedophiles.

Old school Reddit did actually have some subreddits that catered to pedos.
Now I don't know why someone would continue to think it's pro-pedo. If he still holds that view, that's fucking stupid.

This guy's comics are hilarious and I'm glad they have been labeled Nazi propaganda by a bunch of soy faced milquetoast retards

As far as I'm aware, the only form of polygamy allowed in those countries is one man + multiple women.
It's not a nice thing, it's actually extremely misogynistic and it's not something that should be encouraged. Honestly, believing that this is Ok marks you as something of an Islamic fundamentalist in my opinion.

Some dogs are dumb because cishet white males hold them down, also because there isn't enough representations of their breeds in media. Economic factors have nothing whatsoever to do with it.
The wrongthink is so triggering that I agree that goon should be permabanned.

nnnaaaahhhhhh come on. it marks you as a dork trying to rules lawyer your gross sexual proclivities into being normal by hiding behind cultural relativism so that no one can call you out without being unwoke. and that dog comic is pretty clearly race realism agitprop which is in turn hiding behind edgy humor so that no one can call you out without being an uptight sjw. everyone sucks and the internet makes you stupid

Come on its not like poke mon did anyharm


As for relationships i doubt the good left have any sorta normal relationships going on. Or the ones that due have other things to do than shit post 24/7 fuck I remember when a mod named OMGWTFBBQ stepted down. He basically had kids and shit and said he was spending too much time modding.

Compairing him to this generation is like night and day.

Stuff like that is probably the oddest thing i could take away from Something Awful's community. You'd think that the board names, in-jokes and stuff would be sterilized for it's new hyper-offended, sensitive community. But there's the "Gay Dead Babies", "Fuck You And Die" and like you said, the "Comedy Gaschamber" boards. Yet these people out of all the things they could get upset over, choose to complain about an obscure in-joke wordfilter that's been around for more than a decade.


Goons confuse me *sigh*

its a womens rights feminism forum that used to publish front page articles about a individual woman's miscarriages, in their own words, "crowding up heaven with her poison womb," the self awareness ship sailed a decade ago when helldump closed.

Well damn, i didn't expect such a depressing reply to my innocuous observation (:_(.
 
I didn't know Zack Parsons was still alive, let alone still writing front-page articles for SA what, 15 years on?

Judging by that pile of crap, either he's lost his knack (he used to write some good stuff back in the day) or he's completely stopped giving a shit, which I guess you would if you were stuck in a dead-end writing job like that for a decade and a half. All the other good front page writers moved on years ago.
 
The funny thing is the frontpage is what pulled me into reading the forums in the first place back then. I'm sure I wasn't the only one.

It's such a relic of different internet days, too. I can't imagine SAs frontpage has any amount of serious traffic these days. It's probably only read by some die-hard goons that already post there to begin with. It even still looks like some early Web 2.0 thing. Look at the Categories at the top, most of them haven't had new entries in a year or more.

If you really wanna have goons stuck obsessively checking the ads, you can just make .gifs of the current goon ads on there and have them flash bad words for some frames. Or make them link to triggering pages. Things like that. Be creative!
