2008 House Bill 775 (Prohibit anonymous blogging) - KentuckyVotes.org - 0 views

  •  Really. Fighting Anonymous is like fighting an omnicent and invisible monster. You don't know who they are, where they are, and you can never hurt them. Not enough of them to make a difference anyway. People always go around arguing about whether Anonymous is good or evil, but the answer is NEITHER. Anonymous is a force of chaos. They love overturning order, because they think it's funny. This makes the order people pretty nervious.
  • Whoa... anon posts are enabled for a bill against anon blogs? How interesting!

OP - Encyclopedia Dramatica - 0 views

  • OP is an abbreviation for Original Poster, AKA the asshole who got there first. Used most commonly on *chan boards and forums, the quality of a thread usually balances upon the OP's ability to generate drama and/or interest in whatever bullshit he's yelling into cybarspace, although occasionally Anonymous just grabs something by the scrotum and runs with it. A thread that snowballs into win can often give an OP unwarranted self-importance, leading to faggotry and/or lulz if they attempt to take credit for the hard work of legion.

Urban Dictionary: efg - 0 views

  • EFG stands for Epic Fail Guy. He is a meme on the website 4chan. He is usually represented as a stick figure wearing a Guy Fawkes mask, and never does anything right. Combo? Fail. Meme? Fail. Comment? Joke? All fail. He can't even shoop a decent whoop. EFG: LETS! EFG: GET! EFG: READY! EFG: TO! anonymous: fail.

Former New Republic Writer Charges Social Web Users As 'Destructive' - 0 views

  • Siegel levels a particularly critical eye at the blogosphere, in which anonymity and isolation are barriers from behind which attacks against notable and reputable publications are made.
  • much of the blogosphere has spent a great deal of effort chasing the traffic dragon. (A terrible phrase, in hindsight.)
  • If man was meant to fly God would have given him wings. People used to say that too. who cares what stupid poeple say?
