Is Pepe the face of 4chan now?
If you ever see Pepe outside of 4chan, you immediately think of 4chan, specifically r9k
>>27967757
When i see a pepe i think:
>wow this guy is a frogposting meme pusher
When i see an anonymous mask i think
>lol this is a kid who thinks he's a """""hacker""""" on eggshell live, i bet he thinks irc is a hacker network.
Yeah, and it's for the better
mustache face is a dank meme that we gave to reddit
Unlike the Guy Fawkes mask, Pepe has been embraced by normies. You see him on Facebook, Twitter, Insta, and Tumblr and nobody would even think about it orginally being popular on 4chan.
>>27967757
Yotsuba is the only legitimate 4chan mascot.
Specific boards have their own legitimate mascots, e.g. wojak (seriously pepe is too disseminated)
What will we be meme posting in 2026?
>>27967852
Shut your fucking weab ass up boi.
>>27967912
it will be tiny garge
>>27967912
Nothing. There will be no internet after Trump causes the nuclear catastrophe that will happen in the year 2020 which kills 2/3s of the Human race.
the other 1/3 is africa, some bizarre island and India
>>27967939
oi m8, suck my dick
>>27967757
remember epic fail guy? that just died out
>>27967996
Oh, well atleast we had a damn good run.
We made it this long without blowing ourselves up.
>>27967757
Pepe has been associated with /pol/ for quite some time now.
>Praise Kek
>Trump Pepes
>that weird jug/vase/Pepe hybrid
Also, Pepe is lumped in with the alt-right movement now. http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2016/03/29/an-establishment-conservatives-guide-to-the-alt-right/
If /r9k/ wants Pepe back, robots have to step up their memeing game and quick.
>>27968283
fuck off, /pol/ needs the meme magic for their meme candidate. you can have pepe back after the election is over
>unwarranted self importance manchild strikes again
Everyone who doesn't visit /r9k/ will only get irritated at the mere existence of you shitheads instead of actually thinking about 4chan.
>>27968283
>Pepe used as a catalyst for a young right wing insurgence
>>27967757
No, the Naked YLYL Banana is the 4chan mascot senpai
>>27968653
fuck off underage b& faggot
>>27967852
Yotsuba is mascot
>>27967818
Guy Fawkes mask is associated with "spooky anonymous hackerz" which have now been hijacked by the far left. Normies know what it is.
>>27967996
>he thinks africa makes up 1/3
You know out of 9 billion people about 8 billion of them are niggers?
>>27968283
>Weird vase pepe
You mean the Frog God?
Yeah Pepe is sort of the mascot of 4chan, especially r9k. But normies don't even know that it's from 4chan, they just frogpost ignorantly.
I've grown to hate memes. The modern Internet is fucking garbage.
>>27969128
fuck off then faggot, 4chan was ALWAYS about the memes
I miss when we just found reaction images and all had own our unique selection. Like each person had their reaction handwriting. If we couldn't find something to express our emotion then we would make it ourselves.
Sadly the overwhelmingly strong repost culture of the Internet turned self-created reaction images into "memes" spawning the shitty hell of frogposting we have now.
>>27969128
fuck you man pepe is the only non cancerous meme, it shows that meme can be NOT CANCER yet at the same time have qualities of cancer, the old 4dchan memes were normal fag b tier garbage
>>27969194
You fuck off, underage cunt. See
>>27969221
4chan and the rest of the Internet in 2003 was a completely different place from now.
>>27969252
Pepe is probably the most cancerous one of them all.
>>27969128
4chan is and always will be about the memes.
>>27967757
they mostly associated with /pol/, who made him famous.
allnormies come first to /pol/, that place has moe normies than us
>>27969062
hey i have a hugo saved too rare to see them get posted
>>27969404
They go to /b/ first
It's the famous one.
Then, depending on their age, maturity and interests disperse to other boards.
>>27969221
Except those were still memes. The term memes was stolen from Dawkins to refer to a replicatable idea that evolves as it is shared. It was a fitting term and applied to a lot of OC 4chan was generating.
What you're referring to was the first big misconception about them, the idea that they were exclusively captioned image macros, that spawned things like advice dog.
The cancerous idea was perhaps trying to analyzes an inside joke into being a "meme" and trying to define things "as a meme" in a metaphysical analysis rather than just letting them be. Of course with time that cancer became a satirical joke in of itself which resulted in the kind of shit you see in /s4s/. People did that shit early on though, "Milhouse is a meme" shows that people were already annoyed with the "labeling" early on.
>>27969441
i came to /r9k/ first a few years ago, them checed /b/, it was trash, them went to /pol/ and /tg/
shitpost on /tg/ for porn and on /pol/ to troll with argentina, i only post serious in here. starting to go to /trash/ and /aco/.

My apologies, I didn't realize your one experience represented all of 4chan's users.
pepe will eventually fade
just like I seriously hope you dont do this man on a blue background with a fence.
>>27969718
Ishygddt never faded, he's a staple reaction image.
>>27969718
>implying Constanza faded away
>>27967939
Fuck off cunt, Yotsuba has been here since the start.
>>27967996
>implying Shillary won't be the cause of WWIII
She's more bellicose and has better chances in the election than Trump.
>>27969300
>4chan and the rest of the Internet in 2003 was a completely different place from now.
It was a place that unironically liked demotivational posters and advice dog.
It was facebook for introverted college students, without accounts.
Now it's just facebook without accounts.
>>27967939
Yotsuba is the only 4chan endorsed mascot. She is the only thing I will consider truly associated with 4chan.
Sorry you are too new to understand that.
>>27969252
This senpai.
I will never understand why some people think early 4chan or /b/ was the best. It had its perks, but it is more similar to normie internet than current 4chan. /pol/ and tendie /r9k/ are the greatest things to ever come out of this site.
>>27970059
i should probably just kill myself
i guess this is what 4chan is now
even my home is tainted
>>27970059
don't forget /gif/
>>27970059
This
I only browse r9k and pol, and I suspect MANY people here do the same. I wonder why there's such an overlap
>you'll never go to a rave in 2009 with a v for vendetta mask and have someone yell at you, "happy new year 4chan b"
rip
i still have my old mask, someone gave it to me at a rave :3
>>27970104
It has nice porn, but damn the posters of all porn boards are retarded as fuck.
>>27970142
/pol/ and /r9k/ are god tier, MANY people do overlap for this reason.

>>27967939
It doesn't matter how you feel about anime. Yotsuba is the mascot of 4chan and anyone who doesn't agree doesn't "get" it.
Yotsuba endures, while all other mascots and memes have come and go, because like old memes, Yotsuba is not viral enough to be ruined by normies.
Yotsuba is mascot, mootykins is eternal overlord, snacks is lord of underworld. That is how it is, and how it will always be.
If you were underageb& before the site was spun off from 2chan and SA, you will forever be underageb&.
>>27970170
Nah i like them, pretty chill people
>>27967999
>my favorite response of the day
>>27970081
so go make a new one faggot
and if it's cool, let me know.
>>27970195
Some, but most of them are underage faggots or the occasional creepy fuckers that reply to every post with cringy shit (this is more common in boards like /s/ or /hc/ than /gif/)
And don't make me start with faggots that ask for source when they can find it easily on google or when it is in THE FUCKING FILENAME.
I think it's funny that places like /pol/ use Pepe. Originally he was from some dumbshit comic called "Boy's Club" and I doubt they would have approved of it.
Let's get one of the other Boy's Club characters and make a counter-Pepe meme.
>>27967996
Hello Mr. Titor.
>>27970287
>/s/ or /hc/
Pretty pointless boards. Not worth a visit desu.
finding porn videos are hard, but you're right.
>>27970059
Jesus fucking christ.
you guys are fucked
>>27970303
When pepe first became a meme the other characters got used pretty often, but use of them tapered off. "feels good man" is the older form of pepe, before sad pepe endured.
At least I have time for pizza on a bagel.
>>27969353
fuck yes frosted butts is a god tier meme
>>27969908
>Demotivationals
Oh god those thing sure died early on, they're quite unfunny in hindsight.
