Do you mean if the person does it OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAAAAND times?
I just watched that. Sorries, I does not get.
He hates you? How do you think the walrus feels?
3?
I hear they’re greasy, like goose.
Do them has a flavor, like cheezburger?
Am they has a better flavor with bacon salt?
KTHXBAI
CMC fnord!
http://www.encyclopediadramatica.com/Over_9000 I’m a DBZ fan though, so I think it’s funny.
Yep, one would definitely follow the other. Like crabs and an uncomfortable itch.
Still? What are you, the lunch lady now?
lobstermobster can has eated stoopid food for lunch.
The goggles! They do nothing!

Its’ kinda a geek in-joke. The humor is partly because of how over-dramatic the readings are and partly because people work the phase into their lives. It has been repeated OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAAAAND times, at least.
I didn’t get it the first time I saw it either.
In all my days as an internet visitor, I have had a secret pride. I had never seen the goatse image.
I have heard of it. I have been given descriptions of it. I have seen parodies, spoofs, artwork, photoshops.
But I had avoided actually looking at it. Then, tonight, I clicked on your link. Finding it confusing, I decided to follow one of the links on that page.
I have now seen the image. I cannot unsee it. Thanks, Autolycus. You have just broken a perfect record. Thanks a lot.
Ah, you always remember the first.
Welcome to the fold.
It had to happen. You can’t have been on the Interweb this long without having been goatsed.
Now you need to see tubgirl and penisbird and the shock site trifecta will be complete.
I am avoiding tubgirl like the plague. I don’t even know what penisbird is.
Hmmm, it’s like you and me live in completely different universes. I don’t consider myself to be an uber-weirdo or anything, but I am always morbidly curious when I learn of these new and disgusting internet oddities/pics and I have to hunt them down immediately.

That doesn’t smell so bad.
It is not that I’m not curious. It is just that my husband doesn’t want to have to sleep with the lights on for a month. Weird things freak me out.
No, but I don’t really think people do it to be “funny” that’s why I used the word silly. It’s a bit of a different thing. Like a lighthearted break from all that “oh we must be such serious adults with such cleverness and put such deep intelligent thought into every thing that way say” stuff.
I think it’s more of a slight “in-crowd” thing. (only without the stupid HS angst and crap since anyone can join). This particular one I believe I have managed to avoid (but then I may just not have remembered giving into the nonsense), it’s mildly cute, but not really catchy as say “1920s Style Death Ray”. Plus it doesn’t have a funny background story like the 1920s Style Death Ray.
Moreover, you will now be seeing it everywhere, even in places it is really not. For example, take the poster for the entirely wholesome movie Whale Rider:
(image is entirely worksafe)
Just a public service announcement:
There is now an official movement to lolcatize the SDMB. Don’t say I didn’t try to warn you.
That is all.
