No matter how unsuccessful in love you may be, just remember:
Everyone is somebody’s fetish.
I thought I was wierd, then I found the internet…
Corollary: Only teenage girls craving attention or under the age of fifteen, or both, will TyPe LiKe ThIs. The rest are either outside with a life or inside laughing at all the other teenage girls who TyPe LiKe ThAt.
My own:
Attention seekers who are under the age of fifteen with a digital camera is going to take some seriously strange photographs of themselves and post them with captions like “Excuse how fugly I am, but look at my cool new piercing/makeup/t-shirt” and lap up the comments of other people who insist that they’re good looking. They will always do it.
But then I realised that people in their twenties did that and I refuse to go to that site any more…
Taking pictures from the the top down makes you look a good 30 lbs thinner than you’ll ever actually be. (Thanks, myspace!)
Having your hair in your face and looking anywhere but at the camera makes you “scene” (Thanks, LiveJournal!)
Pineapples don’t grow on trees, even though it looks like they should. (Thanks, SDMB!)
#4 is an addendum to the following rule:
Picard’s Law: the more obscure the topic and the less it matters to the population as a whole, the bigger the argument it will cause on the internet will be. It’s mostly best to identify these topics as quickly as possible and avoid, unless you enjoy seeing nerds beating each other to a bloody pulp. See: Millenium Falcon vs Enterprise.
Think of the most odd event, backward town, or mundane object… someone has already added it to wikipedia.
Outside of the SDMB, virtually noone in the English-speaking world has any real command of grammar, punctuation or spelling.
Gaudere strikes again.
A similar one: If the problem is technical, and then although many have had the problem, nobody had ever posted a solution on the internet.
Any discussion on any social, political, or religious topic will eventually leave that topic far behind and devolve into endless (and largely pointless) squabbling about first principles.
eBay has taught me there is nothing in the world that somebody isn’t willing to pay a good price to get (says the person who just bought 720 packets of hot cocoa mix).
If you need to link to a picture to illustrate some obscure thing in a post, YaGoohoo can show you 431 images of it. I Goooed “dumpster” the other day, and I got pix of every size of dumpster, many of them with dumpster-divers (some with nude dumpster-divers!)
In some seemingly innocent categories, 87 of the first 100 links will be pornographic.
Other times, a really specific, straightforward search will net you 58 hits on lumberyards and pubs in New South Wales.
I think you are missing the sound of “sarcasm” here… :smack:
I’ve learned that you can find sentences on the internet that would never have been said before or since in real life.
Taht’s “teh intArnets.”

Whatever the activity is, someone’s done it naked… and on camera.
I’ve learned that the human body is very, very stretchy.

No matter what you’re looking for in Google Images, there will be a picture of someone’s pet.
