Revision as of 10:17, 1 January 2010
4Chan is a popular image board, which is basically like a message board with picture and words. People post topics about anything from Anime to video games to porn. Though, mostly... porn. Which is ironic, since the creator of the site wasn't even 18 yet when he created it..
But to be truly honest, YouChewPoop shouldn't be insulting 4chan, as the majority of the YCP members are trying too hard to be just like it.
4chan's Shenanigans
4chan has had a lot of influence over pop culture, even going to the point of Rick Ashley rick rolling various crowds during a Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends Thanksgiving Day Parade float.
Habbo Raids
Aside from their various porn, one example of their various shenanigans is their various raids of the popular virtual world, Habbo. Various people, usually 4chan members, would dress their avatars as African-American people in business suits with afros and block the virtual pool claiming it was closed due to aids. Other than the occasional mini-raids, on certain days there were extremely huge raids, with the various raiders crowding the room. Apparently, they were trying to annoy the other players with their raids. Trying to make themselves look cool may have also been a goal. And it worked.

Memes
4chan, being an imageboard, is naturally a cesspool of various memes. Examples of one of their infamous memes are the "lolcats;" unique macros of cats, fsjals, and various copypasta.
Copypasta
4chan has various text-based memes involving the copying and pasting of text in various threads. One example is the "Bel-Air," which involves telling a usually epic and dramatic story or notice, then suddenly switching to the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air lyrics. Another example is the "Shiny Pidgey" story; involving an ignorant guy, a mean girlfriend, and Pokemon.[1]
