The curiosity got the best of me and I just checked it out. I concur 100%.

[–]scrinner 5 points6 points ago

You know, this is exactly how 4chan feels about reddit.

Heres how the chain goes (Roughly)

4chan -----> Reddit ----> 9gag

[–]Monkeylabs 0 points1 point ago

Internet hate machine.

[–]conme 8 points9 points ago

I can confirm that I made this exact face when the site loaded on my computer.

[–]JamesBieber -1 points0 points ago

I can confirm this confirmation.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points ago

The only thing you need to know about 9GAG, you need a Facebook account to make a comment.

[–]facebookhatingoldguy 10 points11 points ago

That's all I needed to know

[–]Monkeylabs 0 points1 point ago

I didn't like it because everyone sees you real name, though you know when you get likes, and mind you, there's tons of them.

[–]scienide 1 point2 points ago

It's like a perpetual shit generator

[–]Lots42 2 points3 points ago

The only website with a shittier search engine then Reddit.

[–]brambell69 -2 points-1 points ago

Don't speak such words in here

[–]Lots42 6 points7 points ago

Please. Reddit's search engine blows and everyone knows it.

[–]crapattf2 0 points1 point ago

i don't find things on reddit, they find me ....which is good because the search engine is shit

[–]Doctor_Twinkletits 0 points1 point ago

Lots42 speaks the truth.

[–]cheatreynold 3 points4 points ago

I used to go on 9GAG. I had just accepted that low post quality was a fact of life. Then I came to Reddit...and life was better again. The sun shined brighter. My morning coffee tasted stronger, more flavourful. I found myself having significantly fewer aneurysms due to the huge drop in spelling and grammatical errors.

But seriously, it's really hard to go back to 9GAG after coming to /r/funny. It's just...not all that great.

[–]Monkeylabs 0 points1 point ago

Exact same story here...

[–]kvarts1p 1 point2 points ago

There is a place worse: the Norwegian equivalent of 9gag; artige.no, where almost every single post is a repost from reddit, mis-used memes, or a "am I the only one who ...?" post.

The only way to show people you like an picture, is pressing the Facebook like-button. This leads to having my entire facebook feed full of bad pictures. And everybody knows about the site.

This is where memes go to die.

[–]madeupstatistician 1 point2 points ago

That website is a train wreck.

[–]ForTheWilliams 1 point2 points ago

I love this novelty account.

[–]Satan_McRapeypants 1 point2 points ago

I'm not a good man. Get me another beer, Dragon Lady. This one's empty

[–]IAmInAFrat 1 point2 points ago

I think I would much rather go over to /r/spacedicks before I ever go to 9gag again.

[–]louisclub 0 points1 point ago

its the entry-level for the internet

[–]snulls 0 points1 point ago

"Y U NO SIGN UP?"

who the fuck would sign up with you in the first place? middle school kids maybe

[–]zombiebunnie 0 points1 point ago

Funny story, I looked at it just now, and its mostly rage faces and memes with 1 or 2 actually original content submissions. By that I mean random pictures with text on them of course.

So essentially, it's exactly like what the front page usually looks like on a daily basis if you didn't have to click the links.

[–]oogie20 0 points1 point ago

I did the same the same thing last night. It was awful. Fuck 9 gag

[–]mirabellamoose 0 points1 point ago

Is that really all it is? O_o

[–]JohnnyPlainview 0 points1 point ago

My progression: 9gag to imgur to reddit.

I am ashamed of my past.

[–]Wonderful_Life -4 points-3 points ago

Seriously guys, stop acting like Reddit is the only goddam website with pictures on the internet. I agree that it is not cool of 9gag to steal the narwhale thing, but who seriously cares? Enough people are happy with the content on there and so be it. Just enjoy your Reddit and don't go on 9gag.

[–]GengarWithATriforce 1 point2 points ago

Reddit likes their bandwagons and going against it is always a risk. I respect nearly anyone who calls them out on it.

[–]FranzWilhelmIII -1 points0 points ago*

I go on 9gag at work cos I don't have time to read comments, let alone comment myself cos I can't pretend to be working all the time. I go on reddit when I actually have the time to read the comments, which is the best thing about reddit. So why hate 9gag?

EDIT: Great, downvotes without a reply...cheers guys. Pathetic to dislike everything that shows similarities with Reddit.

[–]Taklulas -1 points0 points ago

Why would you make me look! Why?!

[–]mbrooke94 -1 points0 points ago

Just went on there for the first time. So bad. It was, so bad.

[–]chapalap -1 points0 points ago

Yep, just went there for the first time and was identical faced.

[–]nimby44 -1 points0 points ago

9gag is the worst
