This thread is about to bomb harder than the Hindenburg.

jesus christ this is disgusting. Dozens of people died in that disaster and you're using it as a fucking joke man wtf

 

[JABEE]

Wait, how old are you, OP?

He would have to be in his 80s.

 

[soultron]

Stupid thread on neogaf just left OP without membership

He will get a new membership from a box of crackerjacks, don't worry.

 

[Lamel]

So you were alive during Hindenburg?

I support parody threads even if I don't know what they're about.

Don't you ever capitalize your post again.

 

[Grakl]

Hey, you're not Teh Hamburglar.

[Forever]

I wonder how many people realize it's a reference to the damn thread he linked.

 

[soultron]

This thread:

Not funny. People died after that painting was painted.

I wonder how many people realize it's a reference to the damn thread he linked.

OP easily could've posted his joke in that thread.

 

[Kaizer]

We hardly knew ye

 

[plasticpassion]

This thread:

where'd they get their license, from a box of cap'n crunch?!?!

 

[Devolution]

I wonder how many people realize it's a reference to the damn thread he linked.

Plenty. Parody threads aren't really welcomed here.

 

[ConfusingJazz]

Congrats on your great stand and all, but you will be banned and forgotten. The only thing remembered about this thread is how the rest of GAF derails it.


Hope it was worth it!

 

[Az]

Like I said, I love GAF on weekends.

 

[Kusagari]

Man, parody threads?

I haven't seen this shit since I last posted on the vestibule.

 

[Gray Man]

So tonight I turned my computer on, opened my webbrowser and after a while of catching up on my facebook, I opened up GAF. The first post I see just left me shocked and without words.
I'm just going to link to the picture but it involves a "joke" about the Hindenburg disaster in 1937.

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=39838156&postcount=71

I'm not a citizen of Lake Hurst, New Jersey and I was pretty young when this incident happened so it didnt affect me that much at the time, but I was smart enough to know this was a disaster and should not be laughed about ever.
When I informed the person this was about German passenger airship that caught fire where 35 people were killed, I was actually hoping he did not know where this picture was from. But he did know, and he just found it freakin hilarious. He then informed me that its a parody about the word crackerjacks that is being used for so much lately.

Now I dont mind a bit of crude humor, but for me this was a tad much.....

How can people be so clueless, or am I just overreacting? I usually try to just put it behind me when I see something stupid like that, but for some reason this just hit me pretty hard.

Edit: just noticed the person got some serious backlash from another person regarding how crude it is.

I remember when we watched this in my Social Studies class Freshman year, some kids laughed. I just remember thinking how... awful it all was. I agree with you, OP.

edit- I don't THINK this is a parody thread...

 

[Az987]

He shouldn't get banned for this. Its Friday, I laughed and I don't know what else because I forgot as I was typing it.

A+

 

[Reven]

This may be one of the most artfully executed parody threads ever.

 

[soultron]

Like I said, I love GAF on weekends.

WEEKEND COFIRMED

Spoiler

is what I'm listening to right now. I love loving things with the Shack News crew.

Yeah, this and the iPhone insurance fraud threads are making it an awesome Friday night to be a shut-in.

 

[SmithnCo]

This thread:

Tasteless. Did you know Leonardo DiCaprio died in that tragedy? Him and Rose would've had a good life together. Thankfully it was just a movie.

 

[Manos: The Hans of Fate]

Is that from True Legend?

This may be one of the most artfully executed parody threads ever.

No there is an old fake ot for modern warfare that was pretty funny and for me the gold standard.

 

[mysticwhip]

man but seriously people shouldn't use disasters in jokes,talk about fucking disrespectful.

 

[A Pretty Panda]

Yes it is.

 

[Devolution]

Wasn't the last anti-thread an account suicide by that guy who was mad about dumpster diving?

Nah the last suicide thread was by a guy who thought Opiate was trying to get in my pants after his terrible thread got closed.

 

[JABEE]

I guess OP wants everyone to be respectful of our senior citizen posters on this board who have lived through disasters of the past that are often a set-up to a joke for those of us who are disconnected from the tragedy that took place all those years ago.

 

[Lionel Mandrake]

Where do we stand on Pompeii jokes?

 

[Manos: The Hans of Fate]

Yes it is.

Nice, great movie. A friend worked on it. Got a chance to see it when it had a theatrical release. Lots of fun. Good to see Bryan Leung aka Lar Kar Yan on the big screen.

Those threads don't tend to blow up.

 

[Yaboosh]

Stump posts lots of offensive crap. Best to just ignore it.

 

[soultron]

I'm thinking of buying a Ford Pinto. Want to go halfsies with me?

It's pretty fucking sweet. Look at this fucking sweet ride:

[gutter_trash]

80 years man

 

[Kusagari]

This may be one of the most artfully executed parody threads ever.

It would have made more sense if he was parodying some real popular thread, or even did it right when the other thread first happened.

This just seems tacky.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

LOL, I was confused until I noticed the title of that thread.

Anyway, uhhh...well. Have fun.
