I cant be the only one
I sort of see it but you have full blast autism
>>333056426
it was actually originally a mustached pedophile hiding behind a magical cloud
I can't even see it if I try to be honest.
>>333056426
What
>>333056426
How in the fuck did you see that?
Doesn't he also have an animation when he throws the spineys?
I thought the reaper was a disembodied seal head, made the enemy much scarier actually.
>>333057252
I think most people must see that.
>>333057021
I never had time to look
had to run away from the falling suns as fast as possible
then the suns transformed into hedgehogs
>>333056426
hehe great find op.
I bet your friends at 9gag will love it.
>>333057503
>falling suns
>hedgehogs
inb4 that robotnik one that is the biggest stretch ever and makes no goddamn sense at all
>>333056426
I kind of see it, though it means for me diverting all my attention to the cloud and not what's on top.
>>333057252
This I can definitely see
>>333057748
holy fucking shit
>>333056426
How the fuck could you see that if the "hair" has 2 different colors in it, and it looks nothing like that shitty scribble you made anyway.
>>333057929
Do kids on 4Chan even know what you're trying to say that is anymore?
>>333057929
>>333058027
>>333058012
I dont get it, what does it look similar too?
>>333058087
>4Chan
>>333058106
Sigh
>>333057929
Here we go again, the entire thread's gonna get sidetracked just due to this stupid fucking picture.
Great.
>>333056581
I can't unsee this now
it's a smiley face
>>333058106
lurk more
>>333058027
Who is this semen demon? I like her big stupid scared face
>>333058014
what should I see here
>>333058186
I thought what I'd do was, I'd pretend I was one of those deaf mutes
>>333058195
>>333058169
wow you guys sound fun. Why not explain the meme instead of being assholes about it.
>>333057748
That plate looks like a face
>>333058106
>tfw this anon's probably not even underage and it's just been that long
>>333058106
literally nothing. It's probably the most boring of /v/'s "jokes"
>>333058280
This was submitted as an alt cover to the game right?
>>333057748
What is it actually
>>333058453
Jasmine
>>333057929
took me a second then I remembered
>>333057748
This reminds me...In the original Red/Blue, there was always an NPC sprite that confused me, it was like someone in a "fairy"outfit or something. Does anyone know what I mean? What what is, really? I can't find it on google
>>333057929
let me guess, some stupid anime reference that various people on /v/ liked before they wanted to fit in and say they hate it? Or some obscure shit loli anime, since thats the shit taste that most of you have?
>>333057929
Kinda looks like bongo bongo
I just don't understand what's so epic into rolling in your shit and pretending it was on purpose or something.
>>333058328
I'll save you the time, it reminds /v/ of an old picture of a man stretching his asshole with his bare hands
The meme is so fucking outdated and half the people don't even know what it is they just enjoy posting smug reaction faces to try and get in on the joke
>>333058681
lol
>>333058637
Holy shit, my eyes had to re-adjust to see what was going on in this.
>>333058681
You should have used "boku no pico" instead of "obscure shit loli anime"
that would have made your bait much better
>>333057929
Was never funny, will never be funny.
>>333058741
Wait, fucking goatse? And people expect others to recognize this in fucking 2016?
>>333058681
underage as fuck
>>333057929
>all these newfriends genuinely not knowing what this is
>>333058826
I'm pretty sure you're wrong.
>>333058741
some of us are also legit elderfags that probably should have moved on
>>333058741
are you fucking kidding me? This looks nothing like goatse. That is one big fucking stretch mate.
>>333058741
>spoonfeeding newfags
why?
>>333058916
Looks more like Master Chief sitting down
>>333058831
>not looking at goatse daily

>>333058943
He has a mouth like an octorock
>dipshits feeling smug because they caught a reference to the super obscure meme ``goatse''
>>333058717
Not only that, they have to derail the thread. Fucking cunts, and the mods do absolutely nothing about it no matter how much I report.
>>333057748
Okay, I can actually see this one.
I have to squint, though. I never saw it like this.
>>333058741
Are you talking about goatse cause its not even that close
>>333058965
Just that you have something to complain about
>>333058014
fucking warcraft icons
someone post the bird eating seed out of hand warcraft icon
>>333058963
>That is one big fucking stretch mate
don't try so hard
>>333058681
It's goatse my sweet summer child.
>>333058916
i see it, but it sort of looks like a chibi samus resting to me
>>333058381
i hope you dont actually believe this
>>333058965
That's neo-/v/ for you. It's not even an obscure reference, but yet you'll have kids crying about not getting it, and some faggot coming in to please that unfortunate majority to reek in anonymous upboats.
>>333058637
I have seen this multiple times but I just can't see it
could you label the pieces or redrawing it?
>>333058741
Why couldn't he just say it looks like Goatse? It is pretty hard to tell what he is even implying.
Not to mention half of the people that responded to >>333057929 probably don't even know what it means and just want to feel like they are part of the "gang".
>>333059219
if the upboats are anonymous and invisible and cease to exist once the thread ends, why are you so fanny flustered?
>>333058965
Because I fucking hate this shit
Everytime with have a Sprite Misconception thread somebody has to post that
Every. Fucking. Time.
It's so annoying because the entire thread gets derailed and it's not even funny or entertaining derailing it's just a bunch of fucks going "haha, wow, I get that reference"
>>333057929
I honestly wouldn't have seen goatse if you didn't point it out
I bet my as this was posted like a few days ago exlaining it was goatse and now everyone s pretending they could see it all along
it's not like goatse is an obscure meme or anything
>>333059128
yet another big fucking stretch. You might be a memespouting autist if it looks like that to you.
>>333058637
I can see how you can sort of see the other face. But how on earth did you not see the actual teeth and the other eye?
>>333059442
You must be a load of fun at parties. Do you police peoples jokes and conversations? Do you say, "hey I heard you use that one last time, how dare you get a laugh out of it" ?
If you're the one with the issue, maybe you're the one who should leave, faggot.
>>333059070
what the fuck?
it isnt an evil smile?
>>333059531
>You must be a load of fun at parties
>>333058014
What is the critical strike icon trying to represent?
inb4 critical strike
>>333059626
I think it's a moving red sword
>>333057929
>filters
haha nice one
You didn't even post goatse and you still ruined the thread. GG mate, Go fucking kill yourself
>>333059531
Look, I don't mind if you guys keep the joke, just keep the posting going too.
But everytime we have the thread, the sprite posting stops and it just becomes a full on thread replying to the picture
Think of it like an LOL thread where someone says something and everyone stops posting comics and just starts replying to that one guy, annoying right?
>>333059531
>going to parties
I just wanted a thread about the topic brought up in OP, not a circle jerk of pretended stupidity and a meta talk about how the cancer on imageboards work.
>>333059475
That image is at least 4 years old
>>333059475
That's the whole nature of goatse since the dawn of days. Two hands + """gaping hole""" in the middle = a goatse reference. It's obvious, it's simple. Nobody is feeling smug for getting such a common meme, yet niggas be crying.
>>333059534
No, he is hiding his eyes and looking dissapointed, emotionless. It fits way more than evil grin. Just think about it.
>>333058617
Yeah I thought the same thing, it's a little girl with pigtails.
>>333059626
The one that was execute in WoW? It's a sword bisecting someone from the head down
You can't see it because it doesn't make any fucking sense that a sword can cut through armor like that
>>333059626
It's a critical strike, no really.
It's a red sword that managed to cuth through armor.That's that gray metal/plate thing.
>>333059028
how is it super obscure?
>>333059748
>jojo ponies are autistic
woah
>>333058617
I remember what your'e saying but not sure right now, maybe one of the nun-looking ones?
For me the circled ones always looked like a girl with some weird flower shaped hairstyle, from the side itsclearly just a hat or ponytail
>>333059534
Did you even played the game?
>>333059931
This ruined Armaldo for me.
>>333059748

Also, parties can be organized at a bar you fucking autist, now shut the fuck up.
>>333059115
I always thought this was supposed to be a football player.
>>333059991
Im the person you're replying to, the NPC I was talking about is the one that's directly left to the one you circled. So thats just a girl with pigtails? makes a lot of sense. for some reason as a kid, i never made that connection, i always thought it was some weird angel outfit.
>>333060243
you legit sound like a no fun allowed autist.
>>333056581
that one is more see-able than OPs

>>333061443
It's someone pouring grape jam onto a sword.
>>333060945
Neither it's a chrysalis and the point is both sides work as a "face". Metapod has been depicted as using either side as its "face" in the anime and TCG.
>>333060770

Are you all right bro? You should go to /r/offmychest
[Spoiler](I'm just kidding, fuck reddit :^))
>>333061380
A cow skull I would imagine, considering it's a spell that resurrects Tauren.
>this is not an owl head
>its an arrow
>>333061643
Blizzard spell icons are literal autism checks. How could that ever be an owl?
>>333060945
HOLY SHIT
its been how many, 16 years? and im only now realizing this
>>333061065

>>333062374
The only Warcraft icon I misconstrued was disarm. I thought it was an axe but it's a hand dropping a weapon.
>>333062415
no
its a bird eating seeds out of hand
what the fuck is thick fur
someone please explain it
>>333061616
In warcraft III it's the icon for the spell resistance/immunity skill which was an elven skill.
>>333062661
Yes, I know that now. But I thought a saddle with wings made a decent amount of sense, considering it's the research that lets you ride Hippogryphs.
Here's some OC.
When I played Earthbound the first time, all I thought was "Why aren't they addressing that he's a cyclops?"
>>333062770
No it's not, it's Ancestral Spirit, the Spirit Walker ability that lets him resurrect a friendly Tauren. Spell Resistance had 2 icons, one of them was an eclipse thing, and the other was a Dryad arm.
>>333062374
Anon explained me that it's a sword cutting throw armor.
>>333062939
I still dont see it
could you draw it?
>>333061886
What the jesus fuck are you talking about?
He's a fat kid with a mop-head haircut. His eyes aren't visible, they're behind his hair. The curved line is his up-turned, "pig-like" nose.
You know.
Because he's Porkey (he's fuckin' POKEY but I understand they wanted to make him Porkey).
>>333062731
DEEPEST
>>333062764
I've always thought that it was someone's pauldron being enchanted or something like that.
>>333062764
It's a shoulderpad with magic glancing off of it. I don't know why you call it Thick Fur because that icon is for Resistant Skin.
>>333060014
same went with the flower from then on and just banked it since all fossil pokemon but gen 1 were shit
>>333062764
a wolf with a t-shirt
>>333058328
>being assholes about it
good jorb
>>333062731
I definintely saw #3, but I never thought of him as having long flowing hair. I figured the extra green coloring was more ruffles of his robe, like a fur lining or something. He's green-haired wizard Pokey.
>>333062835
I think the second one is correct...
if the second one is correct, where are the eyes, then?
>>333060243
I'm 27 and people my age still throw parties and go to them.
Americans are so fucking brainwashed by their shitty teen films they think that's the only type of party that exists.
>>333060770
Still the best one. Gets me laughing hard no matter what.
>>333063021
This is what it's supposed to be.
>>333060641
Why is no one addressing this
>>333062835
Just read your comment. The second one is the correct one because the curved line is his nose and the circle his mouth
>>333056426
I can almost see it I think
>>333063384
Shit nigga, you're pretty good. Do more icons!
You have to be literally autistic to mistake Warcraft spells.
But then again I guess that does suit its audience.
Good job Blizzard

The sprite is pretty shit to begin with. The diadem is too thick, leading to it resembling a face instead of jewelry, and the top of the head is too long. I mean, god damn, his forehead is a third of the height of the fucking sprite.
>>333063650
Shit what?
I thought he was wearing one of those japanese thief masks around his face.
>>333063496
>>333063634
>>333063903

>>333057929
Okay, I can see how it would be misconstrued for goatse nowadays. But when I was younger I thought is was some kind of bug.
>>333062263
I always knew it was a beak, but I thought it was nibbling the nose of a purple-haired girl in a hood.
>>333065519
yea, exactly like that!
it even has the jaggedy edges towards the middle which might look like teeth. If I remember right this icon was also used for some hunter pet abilities, that's why I made that connection.

It could be done. Besides, you think he wants to watch himself slaughter another child?

The context is that he doesn't really like doing it,.

The game doesn't have any consistency in how it draws face, and once someone sees eyes it's hard to let go of that visual.

The right one is legitimately what I thought it was, except I thought he had one of those bear-caps for some reason
>>333067908
That's not consistent at all with how the rest of his sprite has hair drawn and it doesn't appear in the overworld sprite either. He doesn't have a bang there.

This has been our nature ever since OP bump was removed since that's the only way to keep a thread up. It's the most retarded change we've ever had.
You have to use your phone if you want to help get a thread started that's not just shitposting, while bait stays up easy as fuck. It's sad.

I think everything was less serious back in the day. We usually laughed in the face of authority and had fun when nowadays you have people defending authority and being anti-fun.
If you say anything remotely atheistic you get called a fedoralord, which definitely wouldn't have happened before.
It's kind of funny to see people on 4chan calling for traditional family and Christian values without a hint of irony and people actually agreeing with them, but I guess things change.
>>333068375
I can see it and it makes surprisingly much sense, but I wouldn't assume it.

>>333068557
you're stupid. nothing ever changed, shit was always the same. the biggest changes were the creation of new boards and the cultural vacuums that they created, like pol and r9k. the fastest and most dedicated shitposters got to make the board be whatever they wanted it to be, so we get closet fourth reichers and sad boys trying to jerk each other off
>>333058280

You dumb fuck. I left out /pol/ and /r9k/ because I didn't want to trigger some discussion on the subject and have /pol/tards spewing shit like '4chan was always racist' or '4chan always believed in right wing traditional values'.
Obviously everyone is an individual with their own views on things, but there has definitely been a swing to the authoritarian right for whatever reason.

And the sad thing is, lurking moar won't even help you. Between 2009-2011 there was such an influx of newfag that they overwhelmed the previous community before assimilating and everything changed.

Sure, there were all kinds, but what I think some people don't realize is that most of what was getting posted had nothing to do with actual racism, but letting lose in a community where you didn't have to worry about what you say.
For the majority of posters, when we posted "DAMN NIGGA RAN OFF WITH MY TV" or whatever, it was because we didn't give a fuck and not because we thought blacks had some natural disposition towards crime. We didn't think they didn't, either; we didn't give a shit.
Old 4chan was apolitical as fuck because we were too busy being basement dwelling losers jerking it to anime girls and playing videogames all day
Then a bunch of pseudo-nazis saw everyone posting the word "nigger" everywhere and thought "These are my people!" and ruined everything.

I'm new, relatively speaking, ~2011/2012 - I can only imagine a /v/ that wasn't shit, but I'm not sure why oldfags hold such malice to every newfag. Most will be cancer, especially in /b/ and /v/ where literal children are known to post, but that doesn't mean newfags are to blame for the huge culture shifts and cancer spread.

>every single
Yes, just as every single gout of magma flaring from Mount Vesuvius was not to blame for the death of every Pompeian. But the eruptions and it's effects killed them all the same.
To give you a more straight forward answer, it was a lot of things, but mostly a massive exposure to popular media and 4chan getting too involved with real life antics, most the blame for this lies solely on /b/. I mean fuck, surely you remember how 4chan was called a "dangerous hacking group" or some such by Fox News? But it was great and hilarious at the time, but the revelries had to come to an end and we had no clue the storm that we ourselves had conjured that was coming to wash away all we had built.
so what the fuck happened in 2007-2009?
what did change that caused the internet cancer to grow?
>>333070857
I can dig it. Also made me chuckle.
>>333070921
I was just confused as to what was going there.
>>333071362
>>333071517
Huh, I remember that. Never really saw it as what this place is about, but yeah I can easily see how that could cause an influx of "can I join Anonymous now?" fags.
Nonetheless, I still would say it's weird for there to be such an arbitrary split in some of the community based purely upon the date they visited, rather than judging each other's actual posts and contributions to the site.
>>333071881
The cancer was always out there, it just hadn't reached us yet

>>333072182
Yes. Early 4chan is the only one worth remembering and unless theres some mass exodus of faglords to some promised fagland thats not changing.
>>333058831
Was it really that long ago?
>>333070448
There's an alternate version of the cover that has two guns.
>>333072061
We're old and bitter. Every new person takes us farther away from what once was. I doubt most oldfags actively try to oust newfags or something and deliberately hate on them. Even now with people admitting all kind of dates of admission, we're having a civil discourse. Most people who unironically shout out "newfag!" are probably new themselves and simply trying to get replies.
>judging each other's actual posts and contributions to the site.
In general, this is how things are. Especially regarding content creation.
>>333071881
Basically a massive inflow of normalfags into the internet thanks to smartphones and social networks (not that they weren't there, but now everyone was on the internet) plus the rise into prominence of nerd culture. There are also many more linked factors like the recession that made pop culture overall less fun.
