Do you have the takes on :glomp: where the guy getting hugged throws up or teleports away, those were funny.

Nope, but I have this:

IIRC, one or two people finally found the thing at a yard sale or something and sold them on SA-Mart for a lot of money. I think someone started producing them, too. It's FiestaCat all over again.

Okay, someone needs to buy almost all of these for D&D. I can't decide whether I like Smiley Crusader or Smiley Castro the most. :3:

Thanks, I made Castro and the French, Islamist, Palestinian, soldier and Soviet ones.

And these, too: :flame: :neckbeard: :pedo: :suicide:

I also made a few of varying quality that never caught on:

Looking at my previous post, there's a lot of emoticons that don't have an explanation beyond "byob".

I still want to know why :holy: is the holy dance.

IIRC it was snatched from some Christian forum.

The thing is that not only do people take him seriously, they agree with what he's saying.

Just proof that sufficiently advanced conservatism is virtually indistinguishable from parody.

Where did the phrase "Beautiful little strawman. But seriously, don't ever do that again," come from?

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say a thread in D&D.

A poorly drawn head lying on its back, with poop sluicing into its open month like soft serve ice cream.

Don't forget the poo poo-smeared chest, referring of course to the time when Metis posted a picture of his own chest covered in poo poo and the word "COMEDY GOLD" written in it with a finger. And people cried about keyboard goop. Psh.

It was one of the Something Sensitive users, yes. Speaking of which, what a weird splinter site! "I hate these people so much I'm going to make a forum so that we can all be angry at them together harumph :reject:"

Also their political/news subforum reads like Stormfront. That place is literally what a cross between Helldump and FYAD would look like if nothing was ironic. Consider that for a moment.

What exactly is Something Sensitive? A SA spinoff where banned members post?

It's a Stormfront Lite for unironically racist, _______phobic FYAD rejects, former D&D conservatives and fascists, and other assorted mental juggernaughts, whose posting revolves around having lost $10 to Lowtax and scouring Pipl for mods' personal info. As for Aatrek, broken clocks and all that.

You know those holiday festivals in some cultures where all of the normal rules of society get suspended? Think of it like that.

It's kind of like those dog spinning rituals in parts of rural Bulgaria, instead of prevent rabies it actually just sprays poo poo on everyone in the vicinity as they mindlessly cheer on the cruelty.

Give the FYADers a couple days each year to poo poo post to their heart's content in GBS, and it reduces the overall poo poo posting the rest of the year dramatically.

I see no flaws in this plan.

The amount of knowledge they share about mods' personal lives in their Mod Death Pool thread is both unsettling and honestly pretty pathetic. The internet is serious business, I guess.
