You know those chain stories your grandmother posts on Facebook and forewords to your E-mail? The ones that usually end in "And then everyone in the room erupted into cheers"? The ones that very clearly never actually happened?

Well this thread is about those. Because they're hilarious.

This one is a classic:

And here's the parody version of the above:

Here's one from the other end of the religious spectrum:

This one shows up on my facebook wall all the fucking time.

And this is some nerd's revenge fantasy:

Man they really do 'erupt into cheers' or the like a lot, don't they?  I think they need to come up with some new stuff...

People dress up as Batman and Master Chief to go to an anime convention, huh? Methinks the author of that particular story didn't quite think it through.

But there's a Batman manga (http://www.amazon.com/Batman-Death-Mask-Yoshinori-Natsume/dp/1401219241/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1345529134&sr=8-1&keywords=batman+death+mask)...

I stand corrected. I suppose if they'll make an anime based on Twilight, they'll make anime based on anything.

Similar to the professor story you posted, there's these two:

Ah, self-serving anecdotes.  Nothing like the old ego stroking, eh?  I must say that these stories are...interesting.  Maybe when I come up with something to contribute I'll add to this.

There have been quite a few Chick-Fil-A ones showing up on my facebook wall about the kindness of the employees - absolutely no way to verify if they're true or not - they're getting into the 100,000+ likes range - personally, I think they're bullshit since they didn't start showing up until after the boycott started, but then again, they could be real - the employees aren't the evil ones, they're just trying to make a living.

The Marine calmly replied, 'GOD was too busy today protecting America 's soldiers who are protecting your right to say stupid stuff and act like an idiot. So He sent me.'

Things to take away about God in this sentence:

1. He's not omnipotent.
2. He prefers violence.
3. He apparently thinks showing a professor who's boss is more important than, you know, stopping wars and poverty and stuff.
4. He's American.
5. He thinks the ACLU, which has multiple time defend the freedom of loud mouth Bible thumping douchbags, is an atheist organization.

tl;dr God: "Hurr durr I'm America you mean atheists!"

I go to anime conventions and I've seen people dressed as non-anime characters.

That first one never ceases to make me sick.

We can't prove we're right with logic and reasoned debate, so we'll show you who's boss with violence and bandwagon fallacies! MIGHT MAKES RIGHT, AND TRUTH IS A DEMOCRACY.

'Round these here parts, we don't take kindly to you dumb snooty intellectuals challenging our simple-minded worldviews with that there high-falutin' logic! We don't need no fancy knowledge or edumakations round here! 'CUZ WE GOTS FISTS, RIFLES, AND JESUS, AND WE AIN'T NEED NOTHIN' ELSE. GOD BLESS AMURRICA!

Blatant anti-intellectualism at its finest (err, worst?).

I am 99% sure this one must have originated in the Yahoo boards. There was a person who was unusually adept at these posts, and would come up with a new one every few days or so. Or did when I used to get some major lulz at these boards long ago. The weird part is the wingnuts would take his posts for gospel, even though when summed up, he usually was an equal opportunity offender. They had no clue at all... :o Sometimes I parodied his posts until one day he griped about it, so I stopped. Although he did steal some material from me, that little sob, and he knew it.  ;D

At some anime conventions I've been to the non-anime cosplayers nearly outnumbered the anime cosplayers.  So yes, it does happen more often than you might think.

That is some funny shit. That reminds me of schools of thought in the Philosophy dept at an University while I was there, and enjoyed listening to a Wittgenstein-based professor debate a Nietzsche-based professor. The funny part was the Wittgensteinan was also an adherent of Kierkegaard, which has a distinction of an apple and orange difference with Popperism. But there are all kinds of philosophies, and I do my best to read them all before I croak... within reason  ;D
