Some of you might be wondering what this title means. For others it might ring a bell, but for some of you this is something that sounds very familiar. Those 2 names in the title are what the users of the random forum of 4chan are called. So what is 4chan exactly?
4chan.org's random forum is what people call the "hell-hole" of the internet, a place where integrity goes to die. Because every post people make is "anonymous" or "anon"( you don't have to register to post something). People write everything they can think of (mostly very cynical and racist), they praise the school shootings and joke about doing the same at their school. (Even in Belgium, where a guy threatened to have a school shooting in Mechelen). But besides that they are also responsible for the more elaborate and complex hacking attempts on various things. Such as a Christian dating and the times.com most influential person's poll. On a funnier note they also created some internet memes such as lolcats and rickrolling.
You'll probably know these "motivational" pictures taken from 4chan aswell (click on the pictures for a bigger version)



As a closing note on this post I found this nice definition on the internet that describes what 4chan is:

you have just entered the very heart, soul, and life force of the internet. this is a place beyond sanity, wild and untamed. there is nothing new here. "new" content on 4chan is not found; it is created from old material. every interesting, offensive, shocking, or debate inspiring topic you've seen elsewhere has been posted here ad infinitum. we are the reason for "not safe for work". we are the anonymous army. cross us and you will fail. anonymous is everywhere. you depend on us every day. we bag your groceries, we fix your computers. anonymous sees you before you see him. sitting at desks around the world right now is a nameless, faceless, unforgiving mafia composed of the best of the best.
