Editing already-animated GIFs isn't easy, especially when they're that tiny. At that scale you basically have to steal the concept and remake it from scratch. With that said, presenting gb2lyat:

Same here. Young me was a fool in many respects.

Humor? Just spell some words wrong, don't capitalize, use as little grammar as possible while still getting your point across, and boom, instant shitpost.

Man, why can I not remember what last year's April Fool's prank was? This is depressing me.

We had "Art of the Blingee" on the front page, but that was about it.

It was just a contest about DBZ or something.

Man I was Perona and I didn't get a win and that was both lame and butts.

Also is Pingcode legit banned? If so, what happened, I wasn't around for whatever it was.

Homophobic slurs are hilarious why do you hate humor???

To keep myself from looking like a shitposting hypocrite it really does bother me when people interpret "go nuts, lose your inhibitions" as "hey time to pull out the slurs!" Not being a shithead isn't an arbitrary request made because people hate fun.

Heh, just noticed that all the normal icon text codes revert to one of the 4 for today. Just imagine RD saluting you for that. Or Twist saluting you if you prefer.

What I do all the time being shitposting, not saying "fag" because I don't do that, gay people are cool and/or concept of homosexuality does not bother me.

The alt text appears to still be correct if you want to figure out what a poster meant to use.

Yeah, it appears to me that Pingcode is really, truly banned as well. What gives?

Posted ping code, the worst crime on the forums.

Mmmkay, this is supposed to be the NOT shitposting thread, so a straight answer would be nice.

This post apparently? I don't get it either. Maybe it's a jokey ban that will vanish later? Or a ban request?

Edit: Actually she seems to have posted after that, so I'm pretty sure it is just a joke.

I checked the list, because I sure didn't ban her. Pingcode is not actually banned. It looks to be an elaborate self-joke.

That is a straight answer, that is literally the post Pingcode was banned for.

Seriously though, even though all this shitposting is pretty dumb, it's also the most active I've seen the forum for quite a while now.

I enjoy dumb shitposting, but I also enjoy sanity. Good to have both now.

You don't know how hard it is to constantly praise Johnny Test.

You carry the cross while everyone else has a car.

I hope this metaphor works. It's to day that burden is really, really undue and unnecessary.

The only honest praise I can offer Johnny Test is that it's giving a bunch of good voice actors a steady paycheck on shit.

MetalSonic · Post by **MetalSonic** (?) » Mon Apr 01, 2013 1:06 pm

I actually got a dream this night about Johnny Test. I dreamt that I was saying to these twins that this show can't get more obnoxious and stupid and then they transformed Johnny into SOMETHING and I woke up (terrified).

Stuff of Nightmares.

I made the mistake of searching a certain website in NSFW mode to find Johnny Test fanart.

Oh, whoever had the idea of posting the old TVIV thread rocks because that's one of the best threads to come out of this joke other than the hyper!!! thread.

Also, yeah, this is fun (especially Perry's "love" of Johnny Test), but I definitely think it's good for once a year. When is it supposed to end, incidentally?

Well, it was close to a Lehrer song, which made it a pretty good meta comeback I thought.

I think we have almost as much members on now as we did during the Season 3 Finale.

Also, I pretty much stayed away from making homophobic slurs and most of the bad language I did post was in Spanish.

Mad Surge · Post by **Mad Surge** (?) » Mon Apr 01, 2013 1:15 pm

Personally I would be amused if this was opened once a year. No more, though, this sheer volume of shitposting makes my head spin

Also Perry, that can't be good for your health. Stop praising stupid shows please!
