I'm looking now, and they're really not.  I've just realized that all they do is recycle/regurgitate the same one-liners and memes in every similar thread. I don't understand what's funny about this entire "PICS OR IT'S A BUGERA" and it's other variants.. Did I use to think it was funny because we used to post there..? |

Well a lot of the fun from there came over here, we have seemed to keep our little clique here and while we don''t have the traffic HC has we are just concentrated lulz. Also the banthammer got a little tough to deal with there and not so lenitent |

They have their moments, but aren't nearly as hilarious as many of them seem to think they are. Actually, one of the reasons i prefer this small clan here, is that there simply is not that overarching need to try to turn everything into some back-and-forth one-liner trollfest or some "epic" blowout. I would rather "odd" than "funny" or "epic" most of the time anyhow. Anyone can be funny, particularly when telling someone else's joke. And anyone can be a troll, it being one of the easiest things on the planet to do. In my opinion, it is the odd ones that are worth keeping around. And we have a pretty okay concentration of them in this town. |

Truth, it is all ego-stroking, mutual masturbatory bullshit. Then again I guess they are just trying to pass time at work for the most part?

True, most of them probably can't just surf 4chan as they would prefer, from the office. |

Brutality seems more fun when you're part of the mob as opposed to a bystander. & Yes, the HCAF brutality pun was intended. |

I am curious as to the origins of the ampersand.. Knowing you and the fact that you've been around for a few hundred years, you're probably already aware. |

It began as a joke between myself and Van Buren when I asserted that he must be too busy to write out the word "and" in a letter since he refused my offer of clubbing an Irishman to death with a large cog I had fashioned to a titanium rod. |

I am amazed that Van Buren would turn that opportunity down. The Dutch are so strange. |

He said he had "Presidenting" to do that required his attentions. |

Yes, but even more so than the abuse of the Irish? I must say, his questionable prioritization is exactly why he didn't get a second term. |

I'm not even remotely funny but my job in this group is to be the guy who is chock full of useless information. Such as the fact that the Earth rotates at 1142 miles per hour and weighs 34 metric tons. |

HCAF is like one big community that lacks diversity in lulz. With the lack of diversity there is little room for lulz to naturally evolve, and the result of that is the same regurgitated memes. It is too homogeneous of a society for new lulz to originate. Their somewhat strict CoC also limits the lulz factor because no one wants to get banned for saying something funny. Mapz is on the other end of the spectrum in regards to that. What we lack in numbers we more than make up for with a boundary less society more or less. Our members are diverse enough that new lulz may evolve on their own. What's not funny dies out quickly, and what's funny thrives. No one here is afraid of getting bant and that removes some of the restrictions of the generation of new lulz.

Dolf, LoopQuantam, Duncan, Zentman, Rbasaria, and the rest of the newer regulars are the lamest people ever. Worst thing to ever happen to HCAF |

Duncan was warplanegrey and the source of many accidental lulz involving roadcases and buying corksniffer gear whilst living at home with Mum & Dad... but this was some years ago. Those guys have, mostly, been around for a longish while, but most of the old crew moved on to greener pastures. That really started with all the '80s Metal D00ds leaving for RigTalk a few years back. |
