4chan in the 00s was something I don't think can ever exist again on the internet. It basically focus-grouped the sort of content that turned in to what the internet is today. I became a total loser at just the right time to experience it coming in to form, then became normal again at just the right time to leave before it became infected with politics.

Crazy story is when I first met my friend's wife, the last person you'd expect to be a b-slur, we basically instantly and telepathically realized we'd both been on 4chan in the 00s. I dunno what it is but the sort of humor on that site was so specific and fucked up that you instantly recognize it.
