Internets: What The Hell Are 4chan, ED, Something Awful, And
While Gawker commenters know every obscure web site or at least can fake it, regular readers may want an explanation of some of the Internet’s most strangely influential sites, an explanation shorter than Wikipedia’s 2200-word article about 4chan. So I’ll define Encyclopedia Dramatica, 4chan, /b/, Something Awful, and YTMND.
Normally doing this kind of thing just anger the bugs on the other side of the upturned stone, but this sums most of these sites pretty well. Apart from comparing and insulting SomethingAwful by comparing it to EbaumsWorld, most of the descriptions are right on.
