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

A collection of butthurt, banned, crazy goons who basically remade Helldump to circlejerk each other over how much SA sucks. On the other hand, they did expose Aatrek as the piece of poo poo child rapist he is.

I apparently got "Lipstick Apathy". I don't know what it means, but it is amusing nonetheless.

Same. I like it. Goes good with my hotdog gorilla.

gmail (or some google service, I forget which) used to have some funky retro emoticons, one of which was . they've since been replaced with standard emoji, many were sad that their emotes went away

now, add in a little YOSPOS insanity: Smythe (our beloved moderator) loves memes. Shaggar (our resident Microsoft apologist) dislikes any browsers that aren't IE, so he took to calling them slowfari, failfox, and chome (a corruption of chrome). After Smythe read chome one too many times, it got stuck in his head and he couldn't stop thinking about it. chome. chome. chome. he made a series of videos (now redacted) of himself saying chome in different situations. he also pointed out the emote on gmail and proclaimed it to be the official emote for the new meme.

someone else (I forget which poster is behind the youtube account, get your digital branding straight dudes) made this video which really helped spur chome's popularity (and led to making other memes popular such as lomarf and mome):
