If you don't get it, you need more internet experience.

I really don't know how to feel about this. Half of me finds the whole situation hilarious, and the other half is burying his head in his hands.
Oh, internet.
-
... I dun get it.
-
Well I can understand the woman not getting it but are you seriously telling me no one in the news channel saw the picture and thought "Hang on a sec, I bet that's either from 4chan or YTMND or some other internet meme generator?"
Did no one seriously think of sticking "Pool Closed" into Google?
-
4chan or YTMND
*facepalm*
Okay, never mind. I know now. Its a long time since I've been to 4chan.
-
Either way, the trolling was a big success.
Hats off to whoever did it. Lulz ensued.
-
i lol'd
but they thought it was only closed to black people, not to everyone due to aids
fail.
-
That's beautiful. I can't stop laughing.
-
It's sick and disgusting and wrong, even if the result was not intended.
-
Ohhh my God.
Good job Anonymous, good job.
-

See it's crying like this that makes it so worth it.

gj anonymous, great success

Srsly, how many different versions are there (http://koti.mbnet.fi/reiler/sigsmashing.gif)?
-
"It shouldn't be tolerated." :lol:
-
It's sick and disgusting and wrong
Like most of 4Chan then? :p
-
and now her grandkids have THE AIDS. How do you feel now grandma? :p
-
No, they gave everyone else AIDS.
-
Well it came at a great time too, just as the latest blockade resulted in many epic wins.
People were banned with reason being "Blacking", many legitimate users who just happened to be black being banned, and of course, a win isn't a win without the website being down.
-
I've seen the pool closed thing on 4chan before. Does it have a particular meaning? If it doesn't then i don't see why anybody put the pool closed meme up on the pool signs.
-
Yes it does have many in fact, particular meanings. But like I said, if you don't get it, you need to go level up.
-
:lol: :lol: :lol: 4chan strikes again :lol: :lol:

Basically /b/tards go on Habbo (http://www.habbo.com) and dress up in black suits, black skin, and black afros and block all the doorways. One special is going to the pool and sealing off the entrances while forming human swastikas. That's where "Pool's Closed [due to AIDS]" came from.
-
4chan sucks and deserves to be destroyed.
YTMND rocks.

There's a lot more to it.

NO U! :P

Yea it's not just 4chan that does all those raids. 4chan is usually the one mentioned, but many times there are quite a lot of other sites working on the background or even being the ones that organize these raids... as far as I know.
Nevertheless, even being childish etc. I find this humerus.
-
I find this humerus.
I think you should report it to authorities, finding that kind of things (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humerus) usually points to something rather sinister, at least if it's at least relatively recent... unless you're an archeologist or paleoanthropologist, or work as a grave digger on an old graveyard... :nervous:
-

Like?
-
If you have to ask, it means you're not worthy.
-
That is basically it.
-
Yeah, it's just BD trying to imagine that he's better than us.
-
Oh we don't need to imagine that for it to be true. We already know I'm better than you.
The funny thing however, is that most people don't get what this whole thing is about. It's like that woman in the news video. She doesn't get it so much, she invents her own reasoning for it. And you just marginally do as well.
The reason it's funny however is because it's all public knowledge. And at least 90% of the people who think they know what it's about, don't.
tl;dr You amuse me.
The reason I created the thread however was just meant for the ridicule of the people in the newscast, and the fact that it's an existing segment. People who saw it and found it funny justified my reasoning for posting it.
Here endeth the lesson.
-
See? Point proven. That didn't take long.
-
Uh... pardon the question... but who the hell cares about a bunch of nerds blocking fake pools on the internet? How am I supposed to feel unworthy because I don't know their "reasoning"? It just seems incredibly lame to me.
"Honey I'm home"
"You want to take the kids to the beach Harold?"
"Naw, I'm going to go form a swastika in front of the pool on Habbo."

We have a winner. :P
To mangle a quote, this sort of "I'm evil PLEASE notice me" kind of thing reeks of stupidity and incompetence; after all, if they were competent, they'd be able to get recognition in some way that was actually interesting. I don't doubt some people do it as a form of showmanship, to say "SCREW YOU WORLD" for a few hours and then go be normal again, much like playing some of the more deranged pencil and paper RPGs such as Cannibal Corpse, but as a whole, it's really just rather sad.

I don't think your average 4chan user is married.
-
My point stands
-
I wonder how many people laughed their heads off when they saw that news cast.
-
I did.

QFT.
-
your average assumptions make an ass of you and mumptions
-
You know what. It be all kinds of win if this thread got closed and the mod who closes it puts the "Pool's closed sign."
-
Why? Because people are having discussions about an event that occured and caught wide public interest, and other people are trying to accuse even more people of being worse than them without even having the thought that they could be talking about their own relatives?
Anonymous isn't a persona, its a collage.
-
He just said it would be funny, not that it should be.
-
He meant that it should be. That was enough.
I am greatly amused though. I kinda wish Hippo didn't point it out, because I was just having a blast, but it still works.
Also, mumptions. Lulz. I'll have to use that one sometime.
-
:nervous:
-
I will admit, I find it amusing that the Media have, once again, championed the cause of ignorance under the banner of sensationalism.
The funny thing about anonymous, is that we are all part of it, it's just that sometimes we don't realise ;)
-
Heh heh heh. Classic drama queen -- she manufactures a crisis to get all the attention she can get.
The tragic thing is that people are taking her seriously. I have no idea what "Pool's Closed" refers to, and I don't particularly care (nor do I really want to find out) but anyone with common sense can see that it's a harmless prank.
-
Pool's Open (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2mxLGaSXeDY&)
-
lol... now she's apparently convinced the entire thing is about her.
-
Some one should forward her a link to Eeeeee Deeeeee's search results for "Pool's Closed".

Wow, the reporter's being so sensationalist, even for a reporter. "She only hopes that she doesn't have more sleepless nights" or something like that.
-
oh FFS. She should have just laughed at the Pool's Open flyer like pretty much any normal person would have.
-
"It shouldn't be tolerated." :lol:
I seriously can't get over how funny that is. :lol:

So does she just sit in her car watching people around the pool, now? :wtf:
There's a word for that kind of sickness. ;7

Anyone notice that there is an actual sign on the fence saying "POOL CLOSED AFTER DARK"?

I find this comment particularly inflammatory and I am reporting it to a moderator, and pray to God that you get banned or some other severe disciplinary action is taken against you. I hope the Administration hears my calls for action against such distasteful talk. The internet is an area for free speech, but I will not accept personal attacks against not only me but my people as a whole.
Your comment referring to people with dark skin complexion as if they are animals of some sort, which is simply not true. People with dark skin complexion have equal rights, and we deserve to be treated as any other person in the world. I don't know why people find it so entertaining to abuse people out of spite but franky, I do not find being attacked over the internet by people typing inflammatory text on a forum very amusing at all. I am hurt and very angered that someone can be this disregarding of my rights as a person.
Most people would overlook your threats as a simple joke in distaste but I see no reason why I should let something this serious just pass without incident. I will continue and continue to press for justice until you get exactly what you deserve. A personal attack on my race will not go by, and I hope that today something will change. Not only here but also on the whole internet. I will strive not only for justice, but for change. Change where personal attacks over the internet will be treated the same as physical assault, because I have been hurt just as much by it.
However, most of all I find this disturbing and I will not sleep well tonight. I doubt I will ever sleep well until you, Hera Tortri have been brought to justice for your actions. Yes, I am terrified. But this will not be good news for you, because you will regret this day when I have seen justice happen, and believe me justice will happen. It is time you were held accountable for your despicable actions on this day.

I don't get why this was newsworthy :confused:

This was news worthy because I have been hurt. And I have been hurt inside. And my grandchildren all feel threatened (disregard the children laughing in the background). If people think that threats are funny they will be brought to justice because I won't stand idly by while people continue to threaten my lifestyle.
-
@Snail: :p
I mean this whole mess. Similar stupid incidents happen in millions/day all around the world.
-
Those incidents aren't important but this one is important because I am involved and I am immensely important.
-
Oh yes. That I can understand.
Let us pray the lord and world to follow.

Yeah... you're a legend in your own mind.

This is a beautiful post.

Hehe, just listen to her grandson's quote in one of the news segments. It's a very short snippet of him saying "This pool should be for everyone" but it's edited so tightly that it's pretty obvious that the comment is likely taken out of context, or that the kid wanted to quality his statement. Also look at the way he says it, sounds like he's been coached on what to say, I'll bet the kid has no problems with anything at all, probably found it funny himself.
-
This is a beautiful post.
It surely is. But dont get ungry snail, stupidity is just a natural phainomenon, you can't deal whith it for real.

Your broken English is always a pleasure to read.

if you did it to mobius it would end up being dragged into a 3 year long complaint about how when its translated to Italian, it loses its humor

That and the fact that he'd claim that he would need to study all available reference material on the subject before he could fully "get it", which means that it's a stupid joke.

Language barriers. The bane of all jokes.

Now HT, you only need afros over your project icons and it's perfect.

wait, Snail is black?
