iNARCISSISTS & iMORONS DESERVE WHAT THEY GET

Poor AWD. He died one month too soon. Evidently, according to the radio station I was listening to on the way to work this morning, the 50 or so nude pictures of Kate Upton taken from her iCloud account and released on the internet leave nothing to the imagination. Even the women on the radio show seemed to be impressed by her hooters. AWD would have had field day on this thread. 

I do not feel sorry in the least for Kate or Jennifer. Who takes nude pictures of themselves in this day and age and doesn’t think they will somehow become public? Haven’t these idiots been paying attention? I guess Kate and Jennifer were too busy with their fantastic careers to pay attention to the Edward Snowden revelations. Everything you do, say, text, or record digitally is being accessed by someone. It’s that simple. Don’t be an iIdiot. Either that, or these narcissistic starlets actually want these pictures in the public realm because it generates more publicity for their “important careers” pretending to be someone relevant in this superficial society.

The extreme narcissism of the morons in this country is breathtaking to behold. Facebook, instagram, twitter and selfies are a reflection of a degraded society of ignorant, egotistical, moronic, shallow, narcissistic, self involved tools. I don’t care where you are checking in from. I don’t care what you are eating. I don’t care what your dinner looks like. I don’t care what you think about Kim Kardashian learning pole dancing. I don’t care that you are going to buy a new car with a 7 year loan and are worried about the car payments. I don’t care about your new tattoo. I don’t fucking care about you.  #Idontcare.

I have a suspicion Stucky is going to have some more problems with sticky computer keys.

4chan: The ‘shock post’ site that hosted the private Jennifer Lawrence photos

For all its cultural relevance, it’s possible you’ve never heard of 4chan. It’s not much to look at. Just a few pixels blinking on a page like something out of “Duck Hunt.”

The outdated design, however, belies its influence. Called one the “darkest corners of the Web” by a New York Times writer and the “ninth circle of Hell,” 4chan twins the irreverent with the abhorrent, birthing wildly popular memes such as Lolcats while simultaneously hosting some of the most prurient content on the Internet.

Its army of anonymous users anointed founder Christopher Poole Time Magazine’s Most Influential Person of 2009 by manipulating the poll. It gamed Google Trends, forcing a racial slur to its No. 1 spot. And one of its users, which number more than 7 million, was once investigated for spilling the contents of Sarah Palin’s e-mail.

But this weekend 4chan shot into headlines like never before. On Sunday evening, one or many 4chan users dumped what appeared to be a trove of private, nude photographs of numerous celebrities including Jennifer Lawrence and Kate Upton. The exact provenance of the images remains murky, like almost everything involving 4chan, which deploys fleets of anonymous users who vie for site supremacy by one-upping each other with outrageous material.

The trove of celebrity pictures was about as outrageous as it gets, perhaps the most intrusive, intimate pictures ever circulated publicly of celebrities. They quickly spilled to Reddit, where thousands purveyed it under the handle of “the Fappening” — “fap” means to masturbate — before the news reached Buzzfeed and the rest of the viral media gang.

Now, following 24 hours of hot coverage, the feds are involved. “This is a flagrant violation of privacy,” a Lawrence spokesman said in a statement reported by Reuters. “The authorities have been contacted and will prosecute anyone who posts the stolen photos of Jennifer Lawrence.”

The FBI said it is “addressing the matter,” calling the leak an “unlawful release of material involving high profile individuals.”

But exactly what makes 4chan unique may complicate the investigation into what party or parties were behind the leak. 4chan users operate with complete anonymity, which Poole said contributes to creativity. It also means, however, that users are free to post the profane, the hurtful, the evil. “They get rowdy — it’s like a bar without alcohol,” Willard Ling, one longtime user told the Wall Street Journal in 2008. “It’s like that psychological concept of deindividualization — when groups of people become less aware of their own responsibility.”

Nowhere among 4chan’s vast collection of message boards is this more apparent than in a section known as “/b/,” called the “darkest corner of the searchable Web.” It’s where the Jennifer Lawrence photographs first materialized, which were apparently hawked for bitcoin. And it’s also where more users are reportedly trying to ignite a viral hashtag #leakforJLaw, which encourages people to post nude selfies of themselves to support the celebrity.

/b/ is a realm pervaded by something called “shock posts” —  graphic scenes of violence or sex. A realm where “completely anonymous — no login, no username — people try to shock, entertain and coax free porn from one another,” wrote Gawker’s Nick Douglas. He said it’s otherwise known as the “a–hole of the internet.”According to an MIT paper published by the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence, /b/ operates under a very different set of mores than most of society. Its “lack of identity makes traditional reputation systems unworkable,” the paper stated. “Second, instead of archiving conversations, /b/ deletes them when newer content arrives — often within minutes — which leads to a chaotic, fast-paced experience.” It makes “complete anonymity and content deletion the norm.”

It’s bound by few rules. According to Wired, the few include: “Do not talk about /b/,” Do NOT talk about /b/,” and “there is always more f—– up s— than what you just saw.”

The message board was the first created under the banner of 4chan, and Poole says it’s self-perpetuating and self-governing. “Ultimately, the power lies in the community to dictate its own standards,” he told the New York Times in 2008. “All we do is provide a general framework.”

So…is anyone surprised celebrities have genitals and breasts? Are there lady bits so overwhelmingly amazing that anyone who sees them now will be completely enthralled and become crazy stalkers? The American obsession with nudity coupled with the Puritanical aversion to the same makes me crazy. Who gives a crap. It’s just SKIN.

” … it’s possible you’ve never heard of 4chan.” —— from the article

That’s right, I never ever heard of it.

So, I checked it out …. just curious, and all that. HOLY SHIT!!! From teenaged girls to old women … selfies leaving ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to the imagination. What possesses the female gender to expose themselves like that … to billions of strangers?? (The website shows that there are 1.6 BILLION posts.) Wow, I just don’t get it.

Not too many guy pics … NOT THAT I WAS LOOKING!!!! I’m just sayin’ …

But, I did find a picture of one guy polishing his knob.

Amen! And yet my 84-yo father!? seemed miffed when I pointed this out after he joked about saving his pocket change so he could buy Kim K’s book of selfies. Pointing out that most ordinary folks are now following the lead of the celebrity idiots must’ve hit a little too close to home. He has, no doubt, seen many selfies taken by his other children and especially his grandchildren. Ouch.

@Steve Hogan,

Nude or not…

Wasted time, wasted lives.

That was my point when talking to my Dad. That too many people spend too much time wrapped up in this self-absorbed bs, instead of bettering the world or just their own lives in some way.

Alas, it appears dear ol’ Dad has gone silly as well.

We ARE doomed.

When the word “selfie” was added to the Oxford Dictionary I figured we’d seen the epitaph composed for the Age in which we now live.

I also believe the popularity of the zombie genre speaks to a foreshadowing theme in popular entertainment.

I often wonder if “events” like this photo leak are choreographed. It would be mildly interesting to see if these actresses all have contracts with the same “media management” firm.

Nothing we’re told is true, nothing in the “news” is real.

We drown in data but most of it is illusion spun by propagandists intent on keeping the masses of us enslaved.

Judging by this “news,” they’re succeeding beyond their wildest fantasies.

Stucky

The lack of comments today is due to a lot of knob polishing going on amongst the male members.

Youse guys have it all wrong. Womynz trust in government and thus have no qualms about government looking at all their own line personals. Tts those frappen men ogling away at all their online merchandize that they find offensive….but I’m sure those intelligent young womynz posting all those free shots of their cows online are a little more discerning when it comes to electing those that will lead this county…rock that vote.

Good luck to young men on finding a bitch these days that isn’t insane.

Just HALF of women can locate the vagina on a diagram of the female reproductive system

Women’s cancer charity The Eve Appeal is promoting ‘straight talking’ about gynaecological health

Half of 26 to 35-year-olds couldn’t identify a vagina on a picture of the female reproductive system, survey found

Neither can bb.

So, what’s your point.

ragman, as pertinent as your question may be, it remains that while many of today’s so called men grow up to be vaginas, most in fact are not born with one..

@flash, that is a UK study, nicely done.

And it is not like studies can be tweaked to get the outcome they want. This study was done by a group that wants UK gubment money to “fix” the problem. I’m sure it was a completely representative study of ALL women in the world.

People that make obscene money from the public then cry when the public attempts to control them always makes me laugh.

And yes, we are devolving and technology is leading the charge.

I say this over and over to my husband, if it is digital, it is already recorded and stored elsewhere and will be brought out eventually.

Anyone that doesn’t understand that by now cannot be protected, and I, for one, say, good!

This could get interesting, since Apple is now denying that their security was breached.

Could it turn out that one or more members of the Big Brother Brigade were passing celeb pics around like trading cards, until someone stupidly decided to share them with the proles?

Be really concerned about what your kids are taking photos of and distributing:
“There are more than 4,000 children in the state of Texas alone who have been required to register as sex offenders before the age of 14.”

All publicity is good publicity for these self promoting types.

The ‘cloud’ was planned out by big communication corporations years ago as a way to ‘sell’ you your own ‘information’ housed on their servers so you can access it from anywhere in the world.

This was about selling people smart phones, tablets and pads that are nothing more than a scaled down operating system sporting a web browser. All these new ‘apps’ are cheesy things written, usually, in Java.

I will keep my laptop, fuck the cloud.

@Mike, I just sat down and had one helluva conversation with my nine year old concerning just that.

Had to explain to her how her government is “protecting” her, by destroying her if she takes/posts the “wrong” picture.

Which fit right in with the talk we had a few years back about calling the cops for being spanked/disciplined.

She came home from her first day of school today and mentioned that “I’m expected to love President Obama,” and “everyone at school thinks more government is great.”

Poor kid, she is doomed to a life of reality. Well, I hope, at the rate things are going whom knows if she will have any life, doomed or not.

bb makes me laugh. I ain’t visiting no porn sites. I’m just a little down right now, but not too down, I don’t like being down at all. I like being a happy Mexican.

Who cares if these fools show up nekkid on the internet? If I see a good looking girl, most likely I wonder what her momma looks like nekkid.

Let me know when they get a website called 4CHEN.ORG
