Hey there robots

I used to hang out on 4chan a lot more before, like about a decade ago, and I accumulated a lot of mildly funny and interesting pics. Most of them are lost to the tyranny of viruses and reformatted hard drives, but I just got into an old external drive I used as a backup and found a huge image folder with good memories.

Gonna dump the stuff I like from there as I flip through it, and perhaps we can get some nostalgic conversation going. Feel free to add in whatever old shit you have lying about on your computer!

I used to have the most enormous folder of demotivational posters. I remember torrenting one that was several gigs in size, and flipped through the pictures in class.

That was actually how I found 4chan, lots of mentions of /b/ and how it was filled with scum and vermin and horrible people. Funny to think about in hindsight.

Boxxy used to be a thing, right. I had actually forgotten.

I think that was about the time I started browsing 4chan. Boxxy was peaking, Advice Dog was morfing into the more general trend of advice animals through courage wolf / insanity wolf / depression dog, and there was this enormously stupid meme I think called "Fsjal". I had a absolutely huge folder of fsjals, some I even made myself. Probably gone by now.

I used to be obsessed with stereoscopic images, and tried to make some myself also. I remember there being threads where people posted innocent pics in /b/, and I loved it. There were also a few with "stereoscopic porn", but that was pretty rare.

Nowadays there's always a VR-porn thread in /gif/. The future truly is now.

No you'll just push the chair to the ground harder.
>>
>>37975055
you would slow your fall ever so slightly and then still die on top of a broken chair
>>
>>37975055
No, that's why most modern tall buildings are actually ever so slightly wider at the bottom and narrower at the top. Almost imperceptible to the human eyes

Ur if you tak your shoes off and put them on your hands you can slow your descent to the point where you won't die on impact. It's a sad irony that the 9/11 jumpers could possibly have survived.

>>37974569
Rage comics, demotivational posters and advice dog type of images were always terrible and unfunny, even back in 2005 in my opinion. Rage comics were also juvenile in a bad way, full of shitty OC where people just started reposting the same face over and over instead of creating anything new. Sure, people liked to Shoop da whoop everywhere, but at least they were creative and actually redrew the image.
>>37975020
These were also shit.
>>
>>37975129
Are you serious? The tips of your shoes upside down on your hands could actually slow your fall that much?
>>
>>37975055
Only if you could push yourself really hard. You would need to jump so that you reached a speed in the opposite direction equal to the one you were falling.

Without going into details of the physics, for this to work you would have to be able to jump as high as the distance you were falling for this to work. So unless you can jump up to the 15th floor of a building, you would die.

Also, you would need to "jump off" something much heavier (having more momentum) than a common chair.

>>37975258
If they were super heavy, AND if you could normally jump up a height of 15 floors

then yes I guess it would.
>>
>>37975154
Yeah man, but not greatly, you have to push really hard against the sides as you fall. it's the difference between shattered legs and hip or a shattered spine and burst organs.

Once you see it you won't be able to unsee it, most modern buildings are actually not 180 degrees more like 170-175 or so.

This is why troll physics were funny, as I mentioned earlier post one on a science page on facebook and you could instantly derail entire conversations and enrage fedora tippers into desperately trying to explain the physics of not being able to jump off a chair or up in an elevator.
