It triggers me horribly.

V. triggered
Much facepalm.

NG invented the shitpost. The first use of the term "shitpost" is attributable to @wadefulp.

How do we stop pepe gentrification?

Been working on that for a while. Thanks for noticing.

That would scare away the Pepes, but it would probably scare away everyone else too. Also, you might wind up attracting a bunch of 4channers by accident.

I'm afraid we're going to be flooded by kekfugees wanting to steal our 1st world NG Memes, classic memes of art like Peanut Butter Jelly Time and All Your Base.

It's no secret that somewhere in the Portal is an ultra rare Numa Numa.

The pepes can never be allowed to get their slimy flippers on it.

It would be like watching the sacking of Rome by barbarians.

NG predates the #chans. Back in the "good" old days #chan was a place you went if you were a sandy cunt who couldn't even find loser acceptance on the Internet Hate machine.

Basically the dregs of the internet.

However, since staeling all the memes like cadney from a Bedn, the pepes have raised the rent and driven honest hardworking NGers from their homes into the slums of youtube.

It's just not right.

Indigenous NGers have rights. Chopping spam from the Portal is every bit as respectable as farming memes, and I'm tired of NGers having our culture appropriated by pepes.

Stop appropriating shitposting in your sig. Shitposting was invented by NGers.

Our shitposts. Luckily our cadney staeling bedn memes are probably safe. If the pepes get their hands on the ORLY? owls or dickneck, things might get serious.

What makes you think NGers didn't migrate to youtube to become kekistanis? NG is awfully dudful lately...when was the last great NG meme? 5, 10, 15 years ago?

How is kekistan so good at appropriating our culture? Maybe they have inside ears...

Also...ooo, i'm gonna regret this one...we should build a wall between youtube and ng. Then they'd have a hell of a time appropriating our culture.

Newgrounds is the motherland. In the Out of Club-a-Seal Theory of Internet Evolution (OCASTIE), all memes evolve directly from Club-aSeal, which was created by Tom Fulp Himself on the earliest version of Newgrounds. Before this memes could not survive in an internet atmosphere and could only exist beneath the surface of primordial fax, copier, and mimeography technology.

The proof of this is that Club-a-Seal was a salty meme, and memes to this day are still salty for this reason.

How is kekistan so good at appropriating our culture? Maybe they have inside ears...

The kekistani's have always stolen the memes of NGers, using us as slaves then staeling credit for our hard work. This is why modern NGers no longer wish to contribute without proper compensation. The kekistanis use this as an excuse to call us shiftless and lazy, even though the greatest monuments to the internet, such as the Great Portal, exist on Newgrounds to this day. Newgrounds isn't poor in memes because we lack worth, we're poor in memes because of of pepe exploitation.

Also...ooo, i'm gonna regret this one...we should build a wall between youtube and ng. Then they'd have a hell of a time appropriating our culture.

This is a crab in a barrel mentality. Many NGers have successfully climbed out of Newgrounds. Pulling them back down will never uplift the rest of us still here. The entire internet as we know it today left NG at one point or another and flourished in new territories.

This is not what Newgrounds Mandela would do. A kekistani amnesty is the only long term solution.

You're only helping the pepe gentrifiers with these fancy expensive memes.

How long until you've flooded out traditional low-res NG memes with your over priced McMemes?

This thread is supposed to be about fighting back against the Pepes, not joining them.

is this actually true? i'm pretty sure people used the term "shitposting" on the something awful forums as well before it became a ubiquitous term

Shakespeare probably didn't invent all the words attributed to him, but they only entered the common lexicon after he coined them you pleb.

If the alt-right appropriating Pepe makes it a hate symbol, do Pepes appropriating Newgrounds make it a hate site?

Gosh, I hope so. Back in the bad old days NG was extra hateful. Kind of sad to see our crown stolen. NG basically invented the "too-soon" joke after 9-11.

Wasn't the Piconjo thing also started by people pissed off about the popularity of the more wholesome animators like LegendaryFrog and Pikanjo and the direction the website was going?

That had a lot to do with it I remember. Kinda funny to see how low rez it is now compared to the current standard.
That was also the time that the "fab" aura came out.
