At the beginning of the internet, there was very little. However, the people were amazed at the speed at which they could send mail and shop on sites such as ebay. The they did not see the truth though, the beginnings of the internet were drab. As people turned to the internet as a source of entertainment, the only thing they could find was fail. The internet, completely void of win and lols, was a desolate wasteland. Upon finding this, I muttered the only thing I could at the time:
"Fuck you internet, fuck you."
I fell into despair. I frantically searched for any source or win, but I only fell upon more fail. As more and more people blindly hoarded to the spectacle of this new "interweb," they became distracted by the warm glow, completely oblivious to the intense fail surrounding them. I became enraged, and began to yell at the top of my lungs:
"Get away from the internet, I'm cutting it down!"
The people screamed in terror and rage as their new-found source of technological stimulation was threatened. With my chainsaw-chucks of failslaying in hand, I rushed towards the source of the evil. Just as I was about to strike it down, I heard a small voice through the wailing:
"Oh hi, I come from the internet."
The small creature exited from the darkness, bringing with him much lols and win, and thus was born the lolcat, a gift from ceiling cat himself. From then on out, the interwebs were blessed with much greatness and hilarity, reserving the fail for only the worst of the worst: twilight fans.

For the days when I'm tired the anime boards, and I am able to remember that /b/ is no longer interesting, or am just feeling hungry, I usually go to /ck/, the cooking board. Sometimes there's actual recipes and food discussions, but other times it's just people trying to find something to make for cheap, or for looking at food pron. Either way, it's always interesting seeing what people can make with things like ramen, bacon, nutella, fried foods, cheese, or various combinations of the above. /ck/ has also shown us great inventions such as the waffle-sicle, or the all-in-one nutella cup of epicness (pictured below).
In addition to that, /ck/ was also the mastermind behind the KFC double down, (which is delicious, but will leave your arteries crying out in agony). They were also the unofficial inventors of the El Niño, or the gigantic pizza-turned-taco, its hamburger counterpart, as well as microwave brownies and countless sausage-bacon-ham artery bomb concoctions.

As far as trolling, /ck/ is actually one of the easier boards to do it on, being that few people have any real cooking experience, barring boiling water for their ramen. In reality, however, trolling there is not very common, because food and eating are loved by everyone in general. There always are a few fun cases, though.

"In order to test the temperature of your oil, throw a few ice cubes in."

If you don't have any experience with hot oil, this is where things could go bad. Throwing ice cubes into oil will cause them to turn instantly to steam, causing an explosion and sending skin-searing oil all over your body. Third degree burns are fun!

Another post I saw was relating to tea, asking if would dehydrate you when drunk. Hidden within the topic was this jewel.

"Throw some salt in the water to make it boil faster."

Oh boy, the OP is already thirsty, don't make him parch himself even more. Just like peanuts, pretzels or other salty snacks will make you want a cool drink to go with them, salty water will suck up more moisture out of your system. This is why they say if you're stranded at sea to not drink the ocean water. Also, very salty water will give you diarrhea, a great thing to think about while you're browsing looking at delicious foods.

Iced tea, at least where I'm from, is one of the most popular drinks to hit people my age (late teens and 20's)- up there with coffee and coke. Despite not being from the state it's named from, Arizona is one of leading names- with almost as much notoriety as Starbucks. And why not? You can buy a huge can of deliciousness for only 1 dollar! This stuff practically runs through my veins. They have many different flavors of tea, from raspberry to sweet, or a more conventional green tea or black and white tea. They also have a big selection of fruit juices, such as watermelon which is surprisingly delicious.

Recently a competitor, Peace Tea, came out with their version, sweetened with real sugar instead of corn syrup, which is great for me, already having poor teeth. While they don't have as many flavors, the real sugar has a different, but interesting flavor that I like.

My college campus sells this stuff, (as well as every gas station in town), and it's rare to go into a class without someone drinking one of these. Every party with my friends that I go to also hast to have tea- it's pretty much a rule. Hell, it's better than other parties where people go to down tons of alcohol.
Seems like people are trading it for other things too.

Maybe you're not a tea drinker? I never liked hot tea, but if you add in enough sugar and flavoring, chill it down, and put it in a can, it's all good. Of course, there's always people who go "Ice + Tea= Iced tea." Ya ya, I know a tea bag only costs a fraction of a can of Arizona. In times of desperation, I've even made my own tea this way. Sure it's cost effective, but on a hot day you just want to be able to crack open a chilly can of tea, and sit back and relax...

This is possibly the best invention ever for trolling in real life. Brough to light in the most recent world cup, many many fans raged and flamed this horrid horn, screaming for its banning from the games.
Why would you do that???

At the same time, it became a hit on the internet. Youtube added a soccer ball button on their videos, and pressing causes the blaring horn to block out most of the original audio (for an extra whammy, try it with this video). Even /b/ got in on the act, with a hidden flash file playing the sound throughout the board. Hell, you want to hear this site with it? Go here.

Haven't had enough torture? Try this:
What hath the internet broth forth? (via)

And you though the internet couldn't be any worse...

So my last Youtube spot, "It Came from Youtube," just wasn't cutting it. I watch a lot of youtube videos. I've had my account there since 2006, and right before they got rid of (or at least hid from me) the video views counter, I was up around 15 thousand. That's almost 4,000 videos in one year. Instead of just posting interesting videos that I see, I will start posting the best videos I have seen throughout all of my viewing history. This week, one of my loves, AMV's.

One of my favorite animes paired with one of my favorite bands. It fits so perfectly!


Elfen Lied + Ramstein= Win


Excellent editing and another great match.


Gurren Lagann- What more is there to say?


I just love this AMV and this song. It was partially the inspiration for my Kaji the Womanizer AMV.


Tons of great animes with one of my favorite mixes ever.
