Autistic posters being sincere and still not understanding the nuances to social interactions.
London frog.
People who read books and purposely argue a wrong theme to piss off people who haven’t read the book and thus the person who read the book is able to be more articulate in his stupid take.
The dude that poses as F Gardner but a white supremacist.
Long threads arguing about what Burgerpunk is instead of actually writing Burgerpunk.
Threads where the first post is asking a question but someone posted a hot girl and the thread quickly derails into multiple anons consoling each other over past breakups and heartaches.
Bizzaro /lit/ or not real topic arguing threads.
When ESL posters just don’t understand something and 20 replies are spent attempting to explain it.
DFW reaction pictures.
