4chan is the internet hate machine and the power they have is far, far too dangerous. I've been shouted down more than once, and more than here for this opinion.
I do not care how many friends you may have made there. I do not care that the hate machine is only a "portion of the users".
When you start sending trolls to stalk people IN REAL LIFE because their name is the same as someone that pissed you off, you've gone too far.
I promise you, that in some strange twist of fate I became leader of the world, 4chan would be the first against the wall after I wrapped up all the war and famine.
pffffttt
the day 4chan actually injures someone get on your pulpit. til then there are so many other things in the world that can be changed.
and yes i understand psychological abuse exist but let's be serious here there are places in the world where people are still being stoned to death. 4chan would be a welcome relief.
Didn't someone post their plans on 4chan before going on a shooting spree? I want to say it was the Virginia Tech shooter.
Also people post genuine child pornography on there a lot. Or at least used to post it a lot, I hear they've been cracking down on it lately. By, uh, banning users and diverting them to 7chan, which is apparently populated almost entirely by people banned from 4chan.
There was one genuine child molester that got arrested after he was identified via 4chan.
Kinda. Basically, the owner of the chan gets sick of dealing with child pornography and bans it.
Then someone else makes a new chan and people who like the illegal material or got banned move to new chan.
Owner of new chan gets sick of dealing with illegal material and starts banning it.
And so on.
It's a race to the bottom of the barrel.
The bottom of the barrel is actually the gaping maw of the Everworm.
Humanity is eternally damned.
EDIT: Also if someone wants to post their killing spree plans somewhere, it's not like that place will ever be able to do anything about it. Someone could post their killing spree plans HERE and nothing could be done about it before they'd shot a bunch of people. We would hardly be responsible.

No, the VA Tech shooter didn't post anything to 4chan so far as I know, but there were plenty of jokes the day of. /b/ is pretty up on its messed up current events.
wrt child porn, if by "lately" you mean "at least the last two years" then yeah, "lately" they've cracked down by banning, taking it down, and contacting the authorities. And yeah there was that one time 4chan tracked down a child molester and got him arrested, which I also thought was funny. MrMr might think it's harrassment, I have no idea (KIDDING!)
You're way blowing it out of proportion. This isn't some travesty, it's a dumb thing that happened that everyone will forget (including the girl) in a month.
I'm not blowing anything out of proportion, I'm just refusing to romanticize what's actually typical bullying and unacceptable behavior.

I should probably finish V one of these days.
I also probably shouldn't have started Pale Fire before I finished. I think I enjoy Pale Fire a bit more, if only because I find the analysis completely hilarious.
out of 250 polled individuals _j_ is the outlier. . .this just makes me feel wonderful about every disagreement i've had with him. It's like a barometer where you only double check to see if you are mistaken if _j_ is in agreement with you.
Nothing against the guy personally but some of his arguments drive me up the wall and I needed that.
I prefer to let others sift through 4chan for me and post the funny stuff to reddit.
This is probably for the best.
I feel like we need one of those immensely complicated flowchart diagrams to show the modern news cycle.
It would start at an obscure blog, gravitate towards 4chan, then outwards to other bloggers, twitter and then eventually the mainstream media, before returning via Facebook and mainstream blogs to 4chan and SA...where it would begin to head outwards again.
Thus completing the cycle of jesus fuck what the fucking fuck do journalists do these days?

It was SA if I remember right, a guy posted how he was infatuated with some girl who didn't like him, then started talking about shotguns and what the best shells would be to kill someone. Then he went and killed her and her father.

I think I agree with J on this one. If only because I don't actually have the money to see the movie and this annoys me.

I'm not blowing anything out of proportion, I'm just refusing to romanticize what's actually just typical bullying and unacceptable behavior.
No one's romanticizing it. No one is saying man this is awesome, I hope every dumb bitch that posts a video gets treated like this! Woo!
Some people just think it's funny, and/or don't really care if some dumbass 11 year old got prank phone called because she posted a video of herself saying stupid crap on the internet for the whole world to see.
I mostly thought the dad's reaction was funny. I don't really care about the rest.
Listen guys, don't hate me but I'm going to rate Inception with 1 star.
Just cuz I want to be cooler than J.
This is only okay if you can come up with a more ridiculous argument on why it's a 1 than J. And then argue with him over why it should be 1 star and not 2.
alright quick question now that i am toodling around in excel
so i have four treatment groups, and i want to arrange the data points for each specimen in a graph going from lowest dose to highest does
so like x-axis is the dose, y-axis is the response, and then the data points are all labeled with the animal
what is the best way to do this? i hate the new excel and can't figure out its graphs
SUMMON IRISHRODENT!
Is your "response" a numerical value? Also, what's the format of your data table? This should definitely be doable, and I've had to monkey around with Excel 2007 a bunch lately.
Edit: I died a little inside when I saw that Excel 2010 was recently released. Bring back 2003!!
Oh man. I just found the outline to a speech I gave arguing against the censure of bush. SCUMMY.
(note: i didn't believe any of this crap, but my debate partner was a veteran who wanted to take the censure/impeach bush stance. so i let him. and destroyed him.)
Introduction
If you were to ask your parents about Kennedy…
America was in shock, overwhelmed by the horrific scene unfolding before our eyes. We were angry – Who was responsible for this atrocity. We were scared – No one knew if more attacks would follow…
Nearly 3,000 American’s had been murdered, on US soil no less….but already,
Before the smoke had even begun to clear Americans were already stepping up to the plate. In the midst of the chaos and destruction hero’s were emerging and leaders were taking charge. New York City’s Firefighters and police at ground zero, the brave men and women on United Airlines 93. And the American were united, and we rallied right behind them.
As New Yorker’s reeled from the direct attack, Mayor Guiliani’s calm manner and strong leadership would guide the city and help them rebuild their lives.
And in this, America’s darkest hour, our President was proving himself to be a great leader himself.
Declaring war on the Terrorists responsible for the 911 attacks, Our President was quick to act,
In a month we were in Afganistan, on the trail of osama bin ladin.
our victory was swift and tactically efficient.
Removed oppressive Taliban back gov’t
He moved quickly to tighten homeland security
Approving the patriot act, an essential aid to find terrorists already in the country
Unified national intelligence offices, under the supervision of one Director to better share information gathered Intelligence agencies
and Federalized airport security to ensure that never again would terrorists attack us with our own planes.
iv. Over the last five years he has remained the strong-willed, decisive leader, taking care of the country’s domestic needs, while continuing protect us abroad.
1. His tax cuts have helped the struggling economy
2. As healthcare costs for seniors grow out of control
reformed an archaic system, well overdue.
Bush’s unrelenting embodiment of the Executive office, has drawn much unwarranted criticism from a biased media, and from congressional democrats, frustrated with their own ineffectuality.
Over the last four months, unbeknownst to much of the public, the opposition has made their move.
S.res.398, and H.Res.635, 636, 637 have been introduced to congress.
Senate res. Calling for Censure of the president on the yet unproven..
House calling for Impeachment…
iii. Although unsupported by even liberals (398 97-3, house 33 of sup) these resolutions could lead to enormous political and economic consequence, and comes when America is at war, our every action scrutinized by the rest of the world.
Pro – Ben
Con.
Let me start out talking about a Censure, what it is and what it does.
Procedure isn’t outlined in the constitution, nor are actions which warrant it
Nothing more than a scolding from congress, used once against Andrew Jackson.
While it has no direct consequences
Cripple executive branch (like Clinton)
Consume congressional time
Stain American politics
Besides sen Feingold and his two buddies who is in support? No one
, all 41 democrats oppose, waiting for Intelligence committee
2006 newsweek poll 50% adults against little more than 40 in favor, 53% think FG is politically mot. 33
98-2
an impeachment would be far worse
destroy a tentative economy just beginning to recover from Clinton
invite further terrorist attacks
hurt US image
political chaos, personal attacks
personal political gain, like Clinton years
so…A strong leader, a decisive man and a man of faith, lead the country through its darkest times, secured the nation from further threat. To impeach or censure while our country is at war is unspeakable.
So apparently Leigh's mother found me charming. Her father still loathes me.
You're fucking his daughter. It's his job to loathe you.
Though my ex's dad said to me "You can fuck her all you want, just don't get her pregnant." to both of us. She was mortified and I almost fell over laughing.
Edit: Zamp, I didn't see it so I can't. I can't even read the thread because the movie sounds too confusing without seeing it.

I don't think J saw it either, didn't stop him. You need to be a champion here, man.

Well yeah, you've already stolen his daughter, now you're after his wife too apparently.
Her mother was interesting. An odd fusion of southern matriarch and a hippie. Very progressive politically but she definitely had a will of iron. And apparently Leigh shares more information with her about our sex life then I was comfortable with.
