Who here /introducingtheirfamilyto4chan/?
I decided I needed to show my family what I spend most of my time doing, so I gathered them all in the living room telling them I wanted to show them something. I told them it was the website I have been spending a lot of my time on for past few years.
"It's called 4chan.org"
My brother piped up saying "Isn't that a gore website?" I laughed and told him no, saying it's an adult oriented image board for many types of people with many different hobbies, and that the random board, /b/, was the board he was thinking of, as that is the board that the site gets a lot of its reputation from.
I went on to show them all of the different boards and said that there should be a board that everyone should find interest in. When I got to /r9k/, I told them that it is the board that I frequent the most, and that's it's mainly for introverted people like me.
After finishing with the boards, I went on to teach them 4chan lingo and memes, such as 4chan's definition of "autism," "mfw," "tfw," "normies," "REEE," Pepe, Wojak, etc.
I also told them to go read some articles about 4chan on Wikipedia, KnowYourMeme, and maybe EncyclopediaDramatica to learn a little more about 4chan history and culture.
Finally, after teaching them the basics, I sent them off telling them to read up and to give some boards a browse whenever they have time to see what they think.
I feel it went generally well, and hope to see the results of efforts soon. Has anyone else done anything like this?
