    Am I suppose to feel all warm and fuzzy inside after reading that? I think it's awesome that Wiggin is named in the article via quotation of him fucking up.

    MWAHAHAHAHAAH

    Man, that's not so much as punishing the person you're sending the pizza to as much as you're punishing the delivery guy and the people making the pizza and oh god all that pizza going to waste makes me so hungry. D:

    when I was delivering pizza one time people refused to pay, saying it had been a prank call

    then I heard someone inside yell "is the pizza here?" and someone else was like "SHUT UP"

    so I just left, told my boss it was a prank, got a tenner for my trouble

    But what became of the pizza?

    In my brief time working at a pizza place (20 hours over 3 weeks, all they ever had me do was mop the floor now and again) if there were unclaimed pizzas (this was Papa Murphy's by the way; y'know, take home & bake yourself) at the end of the day they were ours.

    So like, do people really still use the pizza prank thing as a method of fucking with someone? I thought that was a 90's thing? If this kid is really wanting to screw with people he probably has better ways at his hands, given the internet and all.

    We had an argument in D&D where some people were saying everyone on the forum is a "gamer" and is dumb for not thinking they are.

    I like the last line too, very much.

    i don't mind so much Anon harassing the shit out of Scientologists, because it's one horrible group harassing another. i figure things cancel out.

    but yeah, Anon claiming itself as an all-powerful internet cabal makes me cringe. it's especially worrisome when 4chan gets blocked by major ISPs from time to time, because i can just imagine hundreds of pimply nerds at their computers sending e-mails of sheep porn to AT&T execs.

    it's like, yeah guys, give the ISPs all the justification they need.

    It's a lot like most of the pro-legalization people. I mean on one hand I agree with them, but on the other hand... ewww

    But of course this all comes back to the comic and this Lupus dude. Anonymous didn't need to get involve with their hollow and childish threats.

    Unfortunately their threats aren't hollow. There's plenty those people can do to harass people in real life.

    See this article.

    See this article.

    But like I said, their weapons are harassing people through prank calls, image memes, and youtube videos.

    In that particular article, yeah, they were being dicks for prank calling the parents of a dead kid and pretending to be their dead son. So they can be dicks, but still, their arsonal consists of prank calls and image memes, and being dicks.

    So their threats are still hollow when they put forward this "DO WHAT WE SAY OR ELSE!" attitude.

    the only bad things about 4chan are the people who think they're internet warriors, the various flavours of illegal porn and that it isn't funny 99.9% of the time

    personal choice over whether that .1% of the time is worth it or not I guess

    I think I have been to 4 chan maybe a total of four times? Every time I just got confused and left.

    Are these anon people a subset of 4 chan or something different?

    Even /hr/ is dying, though. It's just... Jesus. I know what a vagina looks like, I don't need a 4576x1253px image of one. No, I don't want to see a 3490x1920px image of your weed buds.

    But fuck, when good topics come up, it's just about the only place I can find material for wallpapers that aren't just hr digital photos and photoshop faggotry with a huge canvas.

    Well see I like to make my screensaver images of naked girls. Before I had that big folder full of pictures of boobs that Something Awful put together. Something like 1400 different pictures. I had that for 6 months though so I'd seen them all.

    This time I'm finding pictures myself. So far though I have like 20 random photos and then 3 folders of naked pictures of girls I know.
