ITT: Stuff you've heard people say about 4chan offline

>>25541215

Nothing, save perhaps the only most notable retard in my uni course.

He spoke of 4chan as some sort of collective of legend, his remarks about 4chan's mischievous achievents as some legendary thing.

Nobody else knows about it or cares tvh.

>>25541274

I wouldn't say "nobody." I've heard mountains of crap after the school shooting trend

most on the outside have never even heard of this place

it's weird to think that this board has been my main social outlet for 4 years, since i was 14

My brother in laws brother is a brony. I saw him on /mlp/ 3 months ago when I walked into his parents house. I wanted to call him out on it but then everyone would know I know what mlp is.

Friend caught me browsing once
>ew you go there?
>I went there once and it was just full of perverts
She wasn't wrong, but whatever.

Also heard some kid in one of my lectures talking about 4chan when the whole celebrity nude photo thing was happening.
He was laughing out loud to the point the whole class could hear him that the one tv host thought the "hacker's" name was 4chan.

>in business class about 2 years ago
>mid-30's landwhale seated at the table beside me
>covered in aqua/pink tattoos, "for muh grandpa died of cancer god bless", generally obnoxious
>professor speaking about online company security, makes a comment about protecting against hackers
>landwhale's eyes brighten up, she starts blurting out facts about "the secret hacking group ANONYMOUS from 4CHAN"
>goes on and on, am cringing into my chair in second-hand embarrassment
>professor ends up cutting her off and moving past it
>landwhale brings it up one more time but professor talks over her

My cousin thinks I look at child porn because he saw 4chan on my computer once, fucking retarded

>>25541345

I love it when 4chan is called a hacker group. As if 99% of us aren't completely retarded, even with the machines we spend our lives on

>>25541432
The general confusion as to what 4chan actually is to the normies baffles me.

>>25541215
>tfw friend circle discovered 4chan
>"There's alway this one fat dude who wants to get humiliated"
>"Or this John who says Hey I hate you all"

i know a cgl irl.
she keeps asking and asking me to browse 4chan together with her and i always let my power levels slip a bit and she would be on to me, fuck.

she has a group chat on facebook or whatsapp (i honestly dont know the difference) where the group icon is a flaming pepe. she ever told me how her sister loves frogs, her sister is in that group, and that the frog is angry and it represents her sister's bad temper or something. such a cute logo uguu desu!

>>25541468
I do this. Am >>25541519
>aren't those the guys from anonymous? Nah man I'm not good at computers

>>25541575

>browse 4chan together

literally what

sounds like an awful way to spend time together

Many people I know are at least vaguely aware of the place. A friend of mine had the stream he runs raided by /b/ one time.

>>25541215
A girl I know called it rapey Reddit and I thought that was hilarious

>>25541432
>As if 99% of us aren't completely retarded, even with the machines we spend our lives on
Speak for yourself, you idiot. Programming since I was eleven.

>>25541215
This shitty tumblr girl I dated a while would always rage when she saw me casually browsing 4chan and went on about how misogynist and racist it is.
I also was once on a date with another girl and this girl walked passed us dressed up in comic graphic clothes and had green hair. She then said that would be everyone on 4chan's dream gf because the comic book girl looked like a manic pixie gf.

>>25541215
A girl in my math class asked me one time in 10th grade because apparently I look like one of those Klebold types. I told her it was a Korean goat reading forum and she told the entire class in front of me.

>>25541323

>Your brother in laws brother

So your brother in law?

A nerd I was directing in a play snort-giggled and called it "the cesspool of the internet"

>>25541215
You didn't hear it from me, but I heard 4chan is the promise land. Never done gone been there, but heard there's memes. Memes as far as the eye can see!

"As far as the eye can see, grandpa!?"

Ya heard me right, boy. They even say you could poo poo pee pee in any direction and hit smack-dab on a meme!

>>25541575
I browse 4chan alone because I feel comfy and can shitpost easily that way

> Summer of 2012
> Living with a friend for a few months
> His friends were all normie scum
> One of his friends just discovered /b/
> Have to listen to him talk about /b/ posts and dank memes all summer
> Would often spout off memes or talk about how something we were doing in real life would 'make a great meme'

I hated that kid so much, I told him to go check out reddit, hopefully he stayed there

My wife's kid saw me browsing it one time, told all of his 13 year old friends

Retard replied to you and deleted his nonsense after realizing how autistic he is.

>>25542000
Good thing you screenshotted that bro, otherwise we all would have missed out on the epic lulz
Nice trips though

>Oh, that evil website

>isn't that the place where all the pedophiles are?

>>25542151
Why yes, yes it is.

You must be the retard.
Thanks. :)

my mom thinks it's a community of bullies

He said 99%, you idiot
Besides, that's not an impressive feat to start programming at, most of the people I know who can code, myself included, started at an early age like that

>>25541323

Keeping that to yourself was a bro move on your part desu

My mom thinks "anonymous" is a bunch of Internet superheroes. Seriously, she's stoked that they're attacking Isis

In reality, it's just a bunch of pedos and frogposters

>"Hey you guys heard about 4chan?"
>"Yeah i went in once and it's full of weirdos"
>"They are probably a bunch of fat losers haha waht do you think anon?"
>I force a chuckle and nod

It was fucking painful desu

>>25542967
You mean they were. Now they're just a bunch of tumblr sjws who think they are an hero

>>25542967
Anonymous and 4chan aren't even the same entities anymore

"Anonymous" got taken over when a bunch of Reddit hacktivists and 9gag memers starting calling themselves Anonymous and wore stupid ass Guy Fawkes masks in their video threats after Project Chanology put 4chan in the mainstream. Anonymous was never really a set organization in the first place so they just took the name and nobody really cared.

Now they exclusively fight for SJW causes and other third wave progressive bullshit, and it's never "for teh lulz" anymore

>>25542967

>she's stoked that they're attacking Isis

That's adorable

>"I-I've never posted on that 4 chans, don't even have an account on that site. Hehehe... he"

>suddenly random sperg starts talking about this one thing that happened on 4chan
>everyone gets quiet and starts listening

>MFW I hear someone talking about 4chan IRL.

"its this shady place filled with hackers and drug sellers"
"seriously dont go there bro it's very dangerous, it's filled with assassins for hire"
"only murderers and rapists go there"

Y'know, the usual

>>25543709
top kek instead we are just a bunch of worthless NEETs that have nothing better to do but post 3D waifus, depression threads and autistic stories to share

I call people disgusting faggots all the time when they tell me they browse 4chan

i've been here since 2005, i'm not telling anyone shit

What about the guy that strangled his gf. You know, the one you just mentioned.

>>25543889
>2D**

my mistake but still there isnt really anything scary on 4chan unless you are scared of those gore threads on /b/

"Its a clusterfuck of sexist childmolesters and soon to be school shooters"
>a couple of weeks later praised it as the last place outside the deep web that still has freedom
I think a newfag was born

>I went on 4chan once, it was really messed up

>>25541215
Eh I know a few other people that browse the ch0n but the only one I really remember was after the Dylan roof shooting or some other shooting where they claimed the shooter came to 4chan she said "ew that's that weird site you go on". I had a co worker one time say something about reddit and then say to me "you probably don't know what that is though". As if reddit was a secret underground club.
