This is absolute truth right here. I tried to explain it to my youngest brother last night and he just gave me blank stares the entire time. I don't think any amount of time on the internet prepares someone for this, never mind hearing about it second hand.

I have come across two things that MIGHT prepare one for it, both discovered through this thread: Hitmen for Destiny (and the author's other works, though I didn't read the one about the cheating husband because I can't stand comedies of errors, they make me cringe too much) and Breakfast of the Gods.

Last Sunday I tried explaining this to the chef I work with at my weekend job. He's a middle-aged goofball who's usually on top of internet memes. I was trying as hard as I could to explain it.

Best I could muster was:
- In the Lazerbverse Trolls are IRL insulting cartoon characters.
- Cartoon characters try to defeat the trolls through peace/violence
- Troll king appears. Half of them die around this point for various reasons
- Rob, the greatest character ever, has no ears but knows exactly the right time to say "what?" and when there's trouble.
- Bugs and Daffy are secretly gay lovers who get murdered for getting in the way
- Splinter group consisting of Elmer Fudd become pseudo-trolls
- Elmer Fudd is actually a necromancer who reanimates Bugs and Daffy to do his bidding

He looks at me and responds with "Wait... DeviantArt? Where people draw all those lovely pictures?"

I'm like "YES!" :dance: and realize what I just responded with. I regain my composure and continue, "But this is different. It's the only thing of DA quality that you WANT to see more of."

I'm gonna give him a tinyurl of the imgur photo album link that's now in the OP on Saturday.

I never started on those, when they got mentioned in the thread I was still in class and was already wasting enough time on this non-sense, but now that I'm done for the term I'll have to get on it. Thanks for reminding me!

Hitmen for Destiny is especially great, and it has a twist at the end worthy of M. Night himself. I'll repost the link in a moment, let me find it.

I ended up explaining it to a coworker on Saturday. He isn't really an "internet guy" but all I really had to do was explain "some 14-year-old kid writes and draws it and put it on the internet" and it was enough context.

I think at this point Lazerbot is probably the age he says he is, but it just makes it easier to explain that way.

Yet every time I see a notification for new art in my DA inbox I will be severely disappointed if it is not a new page from lazerbot.

Same here. The problem is that there are so many different characters I'm worried that people may not know they're all from the same source. If only gang tags were allowed again... I'd lobby hard for one that said "Troll Slaiyers" :allears:

We've been through this before. The mods and admins are done handing out gang tags, but if I remember correctly you can still give yourself one. All you need is for someone with plat to host it on the servers. If an image is hosted on the forums, it can be linked to in avatar text.

Khan is the obvious choice for troll. All the main cast is either too laid back (Boomhauer), too neurotic (Bill and Dale), or Hank Hill. Khan's been trolling since day one, though.

Well, in TGT, Bill's job as a barber for the Army would turn out to be the same as Steven Seagal's job as a "chef" for the Navy in Under Siege. Meaning, there would be the Ironside's flashback theme, and then he'd turn into some berserk, remorseless killing machine.
