Hands up who though that Jow Forums and traps were going to be the lowest point and final nail in the coffin of Jow Forums till this incel shit took over?

>implying "fembots" are not a problem

incel was before traps and Jow Forums though

This was basically just 10 years ago. Im pretty sure the world and society will go to shit within the next 15-20 years. It scares me, but im also so curious to see the next dark age. Mainstream use of internet is fucking up everything.

2007 was the year that the trappings of neoliberalism oustripped the perks and every year since then it has been getting worse

Incel shit was much more pervasive on Jow Forums back in 2011. In fact Jow Forums has generally gotten more populated with normalfags in the last three years, Jow Forums especially. You're fucking retarded.

>It scares me, but im also so curious to see the next dark age.

You know what's odd? I think that a lot of internet things are popular by accident. Because normies can't parse the statistics of a trend, so when a meme/trend has millions of followers/likes they assume it's regular people doing it and so just follow the trend even if it makes no sense to them.

They pick up and copy trends completely wholesale. There are like certain nerd/geek things that shouldn't be popular but because people are so desperate to follow trends, they accidentally popularize it.

I can almost guarantee that this incel thing will be picked up and *somehow* turned into a popular trend, since people these days are such trend-followers they won't question it.

I mean, wasn't there a semi-popular meme with a song about school shooters a while back?

I really don't know what you expected.

What do you mean? You knew this was coming in 2007?

I'm only able to see this with the benefit of hindsight.

In 2007 if you were spending too much time on the internet you would have been considered a weirdo or a nerd. It was prehistory of mainstream internet...remember 2007 Youtube and what kind of content it had? Very few people saw this shit coming, lets be real

>remember 2007 Youtube and what kind of content it had?
Not really, I remember 2005 youtube which basically anime rips, and then 2008 youtube which was the very beginnings of certain youtube stars.

Can't really recall 2006-7 youtube.

Not that guy, but every single time something happens and this site or board changes I always think it's for the worse, and that it can't possibly get any worse. Not long after, it inevitably gets worse, and the cycle repeats, getting worse and worse. Shit I'd take the Jow Forums of 3 years ago over today's shithole in a heartbeat, even though I absolutely hated what this place was 3 years ago.

Worst part is that this can be applied to everything. Things in general just keep getting worse and worse.

Yeah, sure sucks living now, everything was so great 2000 years ago.

Fuck off it was better. A lot of thimgs are better, some things are worse but you're also older so you're not going to be as excited about things as you were when you were younger.

I don't know man, despite the seeds of destruction being sown around that time, didn't the best memes come from that era?

Nigger who the fuck is talking about 2000 years ago? And even then, depending on the locations you are comparing, a lot of things were better compared to how they are now.

You said that things in general are getting worse, so going by that logic, the further you go back in history, the better it was.

No.
Jow Forumsincel got banned last year
all this shit on Twitter the started with that
I don't remember Elliot ever being described as an incel until recently.

Just wait 2020 memes will reach critical mass and Jow Forums will be in full swing and we will have more incel killers by that time 2020 will be the storm

>I don't remember Elliot ever being described as an incel until recently.
how long have you been here? be honest.

Do you want me to add a caveat to every post so you nitpicking faggots don't get their panties in a twist?

You're misremembering it or you're from Reddit

You actually think that Jow Forums is going to last 2 more years?

Jow Forums isn't incel, though I'm incredibly surprised that it's going to be supplanted by the incel stuff.

yes, google search result, because Jow Forums has always followed the most popular trends and that makes that relevant.
also nice IPhone filename.

There was an incel reddit but I don't remember elliot being lauded around here especially since got stop by a door.

The word 'incel' was practically never used on this board until this whole media exposure.

>incel stuff
what incel stuff? I feel like i'm going crazy here. do you guys really not know what an incel actually is? what the fuck happened to Jow Forums?

Yes.

oreganolololo

AAAAAHHHHH HOW NEW ARE YOU FUCKS?!?! WHEN DID THE NEWFAGS BECOME THE MAJORITY HERE???

Elliot was always discussed in terms of the beta uprising, all this incel talk has supplanted they

Shut the fuck up you fucking newfag. The word 'incel' was not in the parlance of this board until this media outrage.

This. Incel is an entirely new word.

ok this is all bait then, the facebook meme and utter wrongness have it away

Why are you pretending to be an oldfag? The incel shit I learnt from OUTSIDE of Jow Forums. We used to use different words.

if only there was some way to look at old threads...
yuki.la/r9k/30999901
yuki.la/r9k/33644999

Literally everyone in the thread agrees that 'incel' is a new term. If you think otherwise you're retarded.

Control-f these thread for the word 'incel' retard

THIS time I'm sure with reached the bottom especially with jmoot only giving half a fuck about the state of the site.

>THIS time I'm sure with reached the bottom

If only you knew how bad things really are.

Now GET THE FUCK OFF MY BOARD.

>newfag pretends to be an oldfag.

Probably one of *the* major cons of Jow Forums, without permanent identities or histories (outside of a few archives) Jow Forums is incredibly susceptible to revisionist history.

There are more threads about watermelons than there are about incels
desuarchive.org/r9k/search/text/Watermelons/end/2013-01-01/

How much worse can it get with the impeding death of Jow Forums? I mean, what's below Jow Forums, traps and incels?

kind of like the revisionist history you were giving just a few posts ago when you claimed Jow Forums never mentioned incels before this month?
you really are just seeing how far those goalposts go, huh?

Attached: w.jpg (226x219, 14K)

well it depends on what you were using it for you fucking weeb.
A lot of honest content back then, people making cringey videos, video responses were a thing, underground music was uploaded there.

I used to watch skate boarding tricks and try to learn from them.

Why are you denying the fact that Jow Forums was traditionally a citrullus based discussion board when there is indisputable evidence to the contrary?

>you claimed Jow Forums never mentioned incels before this month?
I never claimed that. That was the other guy, but here you are pretending that incel was a widely used word on Jow Forums before the last 2 years.

internet dieded when smart phones and apps replaced desktops and programs in importance so around 2011-2013.

Late 2000s and early 2010s internet was comfy since you didn't have slow hardware and connection speeds and didnt have dumbed down mobile interface forced

Will we ever get anything like that again?

>going to be the lowest point
every time i think weve hit it it gets worse

I'm now convinced that 2016 was worse for the internet than 2007 was

just look at /b/ now. literally nothing of any value comes from there now and no one on the rest of the site ever mentions it or gives a fuck about it. it used to be the biggest board on the website. that's where r9k is headed, thousands of worthless normie nudes threads, porn threads, and trap threads. finding a non shit thread in r9k is already rare and it gets harder by the day.

2016 was actually like a one-time revival. Probably the one time Jow Forums felt good again.
