What are some films where the protagonist is a complete failure at his job and arguably ruins everything around him?

If I recall there were like over 20 "What was his fucking problem?" threads up at the same time. It was clearly being spammed, so it stands to reason that they would get reported. For future reference, if it was all kept in the same thread there probably wouldn't be a problem.

So who is the one person we are allowed to ask about now? Or will they be 'what's their fucking problem' threads where we just post images of people who have problems all day?

How about if you want your thread to actually be taken seriously rather than judged as spam, you don't actively try to MAKE it look like spam?

They were talking about film, clearly. People have phrased threads in repetitive ways since the dawn of time. It sounds like you haven't even browsed the fucking board once in your life.
>>
>>70376116
its literally an attempt to push viral marketing. They banned 'redpill me on x' threads so that 'generals' could be made with complicated subject lines that push clickbait.


Redpill me on X and What was his problem? are fucking general headers.

I know /tv/ is a retard factory these days and everything. And that a lot of people here were really popular at school and have several friends which is why they spend their time forcing memes on a Tajikistan egg decorating symposium all day when not rebelling against mom and dad, but in reality most people could care less about this childish crap.

Why does this trigger people? It's metaphorical. It means you care so little that you don't care enough to care even less. It's the expression of ultimate apathy, like you're too apathetic to be apathetic.

“I could care less” is the sarcastic variant. Idioms are not required to follow logic, and to point out the lack of logic in one idiom and not all idioms is…illogical. Take the expression “head over heels,” which makes far less sense than the expression “heels over head” when you think about the physics of a somersault.

This.

Ever since 2011-2012 we've been taken over by underage faggots from /b/, 9gag and Reddit who are the kind of memeshit spammers that 4chan used to and has always mocked and made fun of.

Memes used to be actual jokes that naturally caught on because they were funny in a context that evolved (see: actual memes and jokes from /a/ and /co/).
Now "memes" are one word or two word phrases that ban-evading script-kiddy Redditors just spam the board with via a bot until they become forced, so they can brag about how the created the next LE EPIG MEME to their butt-buddies that lasts for two fucking days and is then trounced because the only people using it were other meme-spamming redditors and /b/-tards.

In b4 20 butthurt replies from 12-year-olds from /b/ and Reddit going "what no in le olden days every meem was about spam!111!1 spam is what makes 4chan great BANE? BANE? BANE? BANE? JUST XD XD XD XD XD".

Spamming pictures of the turd I just laid in the toilet COULD generate conversation.

It probably won't, however.

I literally want to track down the /tv/ janitor and break his neck with my own hands.

And he fucking knows how terrible he is too. He knows it. And he keeps it up and stays here because he has no life or relationship or future and he gets older every year. The only thing left in his miserable life is ensuring that /tv/ gets worse through overmoderation.
>>

>stuff that definitely will start actual conversation

like the 40th daily GoT general full of spammed opinions or the sixty thousand marvel threads?


I would rather have a janitor who has the taste to ban people for being newfags and plebs than a janitor who thinks he knows how to police board culture.

If a janitor ever starts going WT Snacks tier postal on those mass media shilling orgies like the GoT general I will respect them. Otherwise they are mostly a nuisance.

I wasn't on /v/ at the time. Or really at all in the past 6 years.

Are you saying that was an example of an actual organic running-joke? Or are you saying it was shit-spammed till it caught on.

Because I saw the original YouTube video that inspired the meme. Either way, that was an example of something so weird and so out there that I could totally see it inspiring an actual, organic, funny meme/joke. That guy's dedication to hacking a 1996 N64 game was fucking bonkers.

Whats the fucking difference? Taste. That's it.

best butthurt janitor stories?
about 3 years back there was /mu/ janitor that tried making a video game music thread or some other weeb shit and just got laughed at by all the boards tripfags. he deleted every tripfag thread for about a week, even on-topic ones. I assume he only stopped because he wasn't a janitor anymore.

>>70377071
>like the 40th daily GoT general full of spammed opinions
If they're full of spam, report them. Spam is against the rules.
Discussing a TV show, especially the most popular thing CURRENTLY airing, is not.
Generals are fucking cancer but discussion of TV is what this board was made for, and if you don't want to see television shows discussed then you came to the wrong fucking board.

>or the sixty thousand marvel threads?
Marvel makes a lot of movies and they are popular. So long as they're actually containing discussion, there's no valid reason for you to complain. So long as they aren't console-wars with spamming of RT scores, they remain and will remain for as long as Marvel movies remain popular and new ones keep getting released. The fact that Marvel movies aren't your personal cup of tea, or anyone else's, means precisely dick to the moderation.

YOU'RE kidding right? this is fucking 4chan not a court of law. If you're really looking for always on-topic, formal discussion fuck off to specialized message boards or even reddit. Nazi moderation has never been good for a board and off-topic shit has always been part of most board's culture.

This.

A couple months of that and shitposters and underage children and Redditors would leave, because their precious shitposting wouldn't get any precious (You)'s.

Then we could have the best of both worlds again where order is maintained but slight divergences of topic are still allowed.

This attitude is how you spot shitposters.

Yes, we were better before you got here and made things shittier.

This attitude of treating 4chan as your personal litter-box because anything else is "taking it too seriously" is what killed many of the boards here.
>>
>>70377438

>this is fucking 4chan not a court of law.

Not every board on 4chan is meant to be /b/, faggot.

Being on 4chan is not meant to be synonymous with being on a lawless shit-heap of an image-board where things are controlled by who can spam the hardest.

>board culture

"Board culture" is just side-talk for "whatever new le epig meme I can spam the hardest".

>>70378056
Well, most newfags do think being a rabid shit-stain is the 4chan norm.
>>
>>70377438

4chan and its boards have ALWAYS had moderation.

Some of them had even STRICTER moderation back in 4chan's better years than they do now.

If you hate rules so much than go to /b/. Nothing is stopping you from discussing TV & movies there while also being off-topic.

>implying they can hear you unless you spam MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDS
>>
>>70378231

This.

This is also my major problem with /b/.

Idiots come to 4chan and flock to be.
Not a problem, because /b/ is a giant gilded toilet designed to contain idiots and their torrents of shit.

The problem is those idiots migrate to other boards, and they assume all the other boards are meant to function like /b/.
It's like showing up at the Ritz and assuming because one room is a bathroom, EVERY room is a bathroom and you can shit anywhere.

It really helps explain this attitude I keep seeing of "Serious discussion is for Reddit, 4chan is for shitposting! xD".

It is the telltale sign that someone is a newfag Redditor.
They heard about the "le crazy shit" that goes on in /b/, and they assume that's how all of 4chan operates. So they come here to "vacation", i.e. to "cut loose" and shit everywhere, because they think that's what 4chan is designed to be.

tl;dr if you ever see someone try to use the "Serious discussion is for Reddit, 4chan is for le shitposting" argument, you are talking to a newfag piece of shit.

That doesn't keep shitposters away. It ATTRACTS them.

Moderation that deletes shitposts keeps shitposters away. If they can't get their jollies then they fucking leave.

>Not every board on 4chan is meant to be /b/, faggot.
but no board is meant to be your backup when you're bored of reddit faggot. It's not a place for formal discussion. sure it can happen, but crying that it isn't always your neatly ordered subreddit is retarded. It's the exception not the norm.
