2b2t is toxic as shit but they really revolutionize minecraft combat in weird ways
I'd never heard of this before and looked it up. Wikipedia has this render of the area around spawn. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c1/IronException_2b2t_Spawn_Render_July_2019.png

It's breathtaking how fucked the landscape is. Mile high walls of lava, a big no-man's-land of grey pyramids, haphazard fortifications zig-zagging across the landscape, some big logo constructed in the sky. I feel like you could actually take notes from this if you wanted to write some sort of surreal deathworld setting.
When I last played in 2015 it was 20k blocks before I saw grass
Any idea what's going on at the center there? Is that a rendering error, or did they actually destroy all off the terrain there straight through the bedrock?
Creepypasta are horror-themed copypasta, which in turn are generally just internet posts that get copy-pasted a lot (hence the name), usually on internet forums, imageboards, reddit, what have you. Anywhere where you can copy-paste text and the mods don't ban it. They're usually distinguished from more general memes by their length and being text-based. Sometimes they're hand-crafted jokes and parodies, sometimes they're just people repeatedly reposting some really bad post.
For example, here's a somewhat famous one mocking a certain type of Rick & Morty fan (I don't know if the original was sincere or satire):
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Rick's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Rick & Morty truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rick's existential catchphrase "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Dan Harmon's genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools.. how I pity them. 😂
And yes, by the way, i DO have a Rick & Morty tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid 😎
One weird quirk of copypasta is also that, well, it's not always just copy-pasted. Like with any meme, people like to customize it to the current context - much like it might now Garfield who "Can Haz Lasagna" rather than the original's Cheeseburger, the Rick & Morty copypasta might instead find-replace terms to talk about the genius of Game of Thrones or Teletubbies. Usually they're just straight-up copy-pasted, though.

copypasta is literally just a synonym for meme that never caught on outside of chan culture and which exclusively applies to text
Pretty much, yeah! Although these days I usually just see it on Reddit, which is also particularly well-suited for copy-pasting comments and is itself infamous for picking up everything chan culture discards.
For example, I remember that back when the Super Mario Oddyssey speedruns were constantly seeing world records there was a meme/copypasta about how so-and-so time was impossible (despite clearly being within reach) that inevitably got someone who wasn't clued in on the meme and started posting angry comments in response. (Which I think eventually became its own call-and-response meme/copypasta/ritual, I guess. Such is the nature of life.)
It's not really a thing in traditional forums like PA, but sites like 4chan, Reddit, Imgur et. al. have a big issue with reposts that naturally lends itself to this behavior. Why make a new joke when someone else already made it and it's difficult to find the original author? Nedroid's "You made this? I made this." comic still holds true.

There are loads of "repost" equivalents - injokes, etc, on PA. They just don't vary as much, or change as much, due to a lower user base, and as time goes on fewer of them are made / older users tend to cling to older references.
That's totally normal for a forum like this, but we're in no way unique, or "free" (I don't think it's inherently negative, mind) of it.

The most recent copypasta that propogated on these forums I remember is about how cheating means you played yourself or whatever
To be fair, the whole Bizarro Stormy/Regular Stormy thing is a bit different since it's primarily two people driving that whole joke. (And it's a more traditional meme in that it's just one huge Sealab 2021 reference.)

They have used duping to mass produce tnt to blow it to shit
Even without that with the population size and the amount of time its been around people have also just mined it out for giggles

This is really cute and wholesome and such! It's still TeamFourStar so if you aren't a fan of their style of humor...
Also the ad at the beginning is for a gacha game, so meh. But everyone's gotta make a living, I guess.

Breana's part at the end is really what put it over the top for me. It made me go look up more of her stuff.

did they turn a minecraft server into conan exiles
... I feel like I've lost some of my innocence. And I used to hang out on 4chan a lot.
Don't tell Lindsay Ellis

I need to lie down after typing that.

I don't think I'll ever be into the art style but I could watch a steady supply of the courtship and Homelife of these two for a long time.
