This. IIRC the original thread was something like "MS Paint embarrassing moments in your life" and the incomprehensibility of that image brought the thread to a screeching halt for several pages when it was posted while people tried to figure it out.

It's still funnier to think that his embarrassing moment was being caught in a gravitational anomaly causing him to be plastered to the ceiling while peeing and pooping himself.

Does anyone remember when some goon ran a real-life treasure hunt? I think in GBS. Dozens or maybe a hundred plus goons were involved in scouring real places all over the country (or maybe just in one area, like the san francisco bay area? But I vaguely recall it being a trans-continental treasure hunt), to get clues and stuff and in the end there was a treasure chest like 8 goons showed up to dig up and it had some random inexpensive treats and stuff in it. I seem to recall the puzzles being pretty tricky and a lot of fun in the thread trying to figure it all out.

Ring any bells?

Are you talking about that book from the 80s where he accidentally made the clues too hard and only 2 of the 12 were ever solved? The GBS thread never had any progress and was mainly just people vague-posting that they "solved" it but refusing to tell anyone lest the hoard of an empty box be stolen (you were supposed to be able to redeem the box with the publisher for a gem but the gems were all sold to cover the authors debts after he died unexpectedly) I don't recall anyone digging up a chest but there was an homage someone hid that got decided on pretty quickly to be in Louisville's Cherokee park but it was right when we had enormous flooding and Louisville has a no-dig ordinance anyway.

No, Masquerade got solved, but the dudes who solved it managed to miss the box the treasure was in. Then some other rear end in a top hat gave Kit's girlfriend booze until she told him where it was, and he found the recently-upturned earth where the actual solvers had missed the box and dug it up and proceeded to make two really awful videogames to make his own treasure hunt and make a pile of money through price-gouging.

maybe an offshoot of the geocaching thread? I know there was a few of those going on a while back, but they’re mostly dead now

If you're not sporting wood while making out, i don't know what kind of bad makeouts you're having.

Anyways, I have never been able to figure out what the name of the Anime which shall not be named is, but I can guess but there's like a dozen out there that can easily fit the mega ultra creepy description i've heard. Even at my most Weeb i never went into ADTRW, it always felt a bit, off.

Rhino, you did this to me!

I was able to find Hayate the Combat Butler via Google, which appears to be a 16 year old who fights to protect a 13 year old so that definitely has potential but I've never seen it.

I think Hayate the Combat Butler spends too much time punching santa claus in the face to do creepy poo poo but i never finished the series and that happens in literally the first episode, after the main character is sold to the yakuza by his parents.

I am vaguely sure that the anime that shall not be named is "Boku no Pico." I've never seen it, I have no clue what it's about, but for some reason my autistic brain has that name linked to that phrase. Someone else can Google it and find out.

A big problem with talking about The Anime that must not be named is it causes everyone to speculate on which anime it is.

If i remember right, there are two anime that must not be named. The first was about an elementary school girl seducing her teacher and the other involved the stupid "1000 year old demon that just so happens to look like a child" trope.

There are no doubt more that are worse, but those are apparently the worst you can get without getting as explicit as like hentai or gore porn or some poo poo.

Boku no Pico is probably worse, but again it's explicit hentai, and since that poo poo is already blanket banned in adtrw I assume it just went without saying. It's also a dumb 4chan meme to recommend it to people which is probably why a lot of people know the name from osmosis.

Neither of them were Boku no Pico. It's hentai, which fell under the hentai ban that got put into place so talking about it would get you banned anyway. The two Anime that must Not be Named were technically safe for work series that were way way way waaaay too close to child porn that discussing them would potentially have been grounds for Lowtax to get another visit from the feds. The only time they're ever brought up are when people ask "What's the Anime that Must Not be Named?".

I asked about Hellbastard a few pages ago and was reminded that he was ran out when GBS 2.0 happened and he could finally be told to gently caress off, so is that what happened to Legorobot too? Or did he get helldumped? I seem to remember his fall from grace was a lot more spectacular.
