Allow me to enlighten you.
Around a year ago, somebody thought it would be funny to post a picture of a red brick.
Just a red brick, nothing more; no rage faces, no text, nothing.
Just a red ******* brick.
And it got Front Page.
There was a huge **** storm; you're lucky you missed it.

holy **** that was around about a year ago? i've been here too long

Yeah I think it circulated shortly before I made my account (July 2011).

I feel enlightened now.
however, i saw someone get front page with a piece of literal ****.

Yeah that kind of stuff comes and goes.
Some fifteen-year-old thinks it's funny and his other fifteen-year-old minions help him out.
I'm not an old fag by any means, but I've seen some ****.

uhm.

uhhh........yea...about that....

Welp...don't do anything incredibly stupid and you'll still be cool, bro.
