Remember Pepperidge farm?

In other words: I simply can't figure out how to remove a watermark, so I better just admit I stole his content.

Since when did we still give a shit about 9GAG?

I don't really dislike 9gag, but I come on FJ mostly because the comment threads are hysterical. The 9gag comment threads are generally filled with moral fags, white knights and try-hards, and it really just pisses me off.

TL;DR I don't hate 9gag, just the people on it, and I am ready for your rage.

Ok, from what I've seen from links off facebook, 9gag actually is bad. However, it's not the misuse of me gusta or le or true story. Honestly we blow that out of proportion. They are simply following trends, we did it as well, once in a while a le pops up on FJ.

Most of the content that you would expect to be "stolen" from 9gag is here on FJ as well. It's also on memebase, reddit, tumblr, anything else. People take pictures and thumbwhore or upvotewhore it around on every site they can think of. I'm sure there are people that post on 3 or 4 sites at the same time just so they can feel popular. So a lot of their "good" content is our good content.

HOWEVER, don't think this means that everything you've thought about 9gag is wrong. It's not. The real problem is the memes. Not memes as in putting "you don't say" at the end of a post, just single picture, tasteless, unending MEMES. It's like people just go to the front page of memegenerator and post whatever they find. I've seen 10-20 single meme pictures in a row.

Still, we can't say we're much better. We're better, but not that much. While 9gag has its massive swaths of memes to go through, FJ has the annoying fad cycle, concluding in posts complaining about complaining about the fad, which bug me.

The deal breaker really comes down to the comment system, which is practically nonexistent on 9gag, as well as the whole self-image. 9gag thinks it's more than it really is, whereas in my opinion FJ shows a bit more restraint.

9fags.

Meh, both sites are equally bad in ways. We are really just turning into a museum for funny stuff.


Basically there are some good modern art (AKA Good OC) the rest of the shit modern art (AKA shit OC) and some finer pieces of funny like old things we see fit to laugh at. Reposting isn't a bad thing, complaining about it is.
