Internet Message Boards

Week after week, Mr. McCormick haunts me with the same question every monday "Where do you get those images?"
To which I reply "The internet"
Now, it's about time I reveal my nerdiness and tell you were i get them from:
Internet Message Boards
there are internet message boards for almost anything that exists in our real world, while the most popular remain being gaming message boards, you can find cars, iPods, soccer, football, guitars EVERYTHING. It's a place where you can share your opinion and at the same time be ignored, flamed or be called a troll.
The boards that i visit the most are the IGN boards. These are easily among the most popular boards around the internet, followed by gaia.com, although gaia is place for pure spamming and anime freaks, which is scary to say the least.
IGN boards have a wide range of topics and it has a very popular section called "Teh Vestibule" which is kind of the place where you can post random stuff ranging from random topics like "rate my day" to very politically driven "suchs and such law shouln't be passed"
On IGN, you can be banned for everything! If you swear you'll get banned, if you post inappropriate pictures you'll get banned, and if you piss off the mods during their consistent periods, you'll get banned. It's a pretty good moderated place keeping it safe and civiliezed at the time unlike Gaia.
But i digress, the section where i get the random picture is Teh Vesti, people manipulate movie sections, and add a funny caption, there are a LOT of .gif's floating in the vestible going from simple "no's" to far more long and detailed.
examples below:

As you can see, they range from simple funny videos, to an expression, to a funny movie-real life reference.
But, obviously there are sections in the IGN boards that are more discussion-driven, than posting random pictures and topics.

P.S. i forgot to post this earlier

Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. (If he will be possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll I thankful, bye friend).

Tal vez, consentirГ© con su frase http://nuevascarreras.com/category/cialis-generico/ cialis 20 mg prospecto Mi dispiace, ma, a mio parere, si sbaglia. Sono in grado di provarlo. Scrivere a me in PM, parlare. [url=http://nuevascarreras.com/ ]cialis 20 mg [/url]
