>>2358765I, too, remember my 2011 self shrugging off my years spent on /b/ from 2006-2010, thinking them to have been a passing fad, a once in a lifetime culmination of so many different social and cultural elements that it could not and would not ever again be equalled, much less topped.
I spent from 2011 through 2015 on Reddit and the comments sections of the Gawker sites, thinking that to be the next place where an internet cultural happening of real significance might occur.
Oh, how wrong I was. Late 00's /b/ was not the pinnacle, it was hardly even a foothill. No, it was merely a prologue, a visual demo of just what lay ahead. I've lived here since early 2015 and the great coontown/FPH purge, and my god, what heights we've risen to since.
