I kinda knew once CNN dropped 4chan's name in the story like it was Twitter, the level of fact checking was somewhere between 0 and -1.

Didn't they used to only even mention 4chan if anonymous had pulled off some sort of newsworthy shenanigans?

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

"Same difference" is dumb, but to have cake implies eating it. You can't eat a cake twice, which is why people can't have their cake (i.e. eat it) and then proceed to eat it too.
Oh, okay, that makes more sense, I took 'have' as you now own the/a cake, not that you ate it.
I always thought of it as "Have a piece of cake, and also have eaten said cake, while still owning said cake afterward in one whole piece."

This has actually happened before. Remember when (I think) /b/ manufactured a rumor about contaminated Doritos which turned into a national headline overnight?

No, this is them doin' good. Fuck the lazy sensationalist media that scrapes stories verbatim from the internet instead of being fuckin' journalists.

That works too. Also involves fewer people complaining about semantics.

The r9k board on 4chan is in a frenzy over this school shooting. Someone on 4chins spread news that this guy known as "eggman" was the shooter and gave his name as "Toby Reynolds" and now news and social media are all believing unconfirmed hearsay from an anonymous imageboard and hating on a guy who didn't do anything simply because he looks like "someone who'd shoot up schools".

The internet is possibly the most useful invention for preserving and sharing information that humanity has ever made and yet it's still so disgustingly piss-easy for misinformation to not only be spread but be accepted as true simply because everyone else is saying it is.
Clearly we must invent machines that will do the job of fact-checking for us in an automated manner.

Just chilling in class a couple minutes ago, when someone i've never seen before tries talking to me on Skype.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

My only regret is, I wish I had strung them along for more time, but this was weird at the moment and I didn't really know what to do.

I'm curious as to how a tank would evolve. Would it climb out of the primordial ooze wiggling it's track-nubs, feeding on smaller jeeps before crawling onto the shore having evolved proper treds?
