I've never worked up the courage to browse there from some of the things I've heard......



Is it sort of the black hole of the internet?

Not like it used to be (if it ever truly was equal to its reputation). Honestly, in /b/ (which is the center of the black hole), it's porn, dicks, people calling other people fags, gore, and the occasional gold nugget of comedy.

I can't get over the shitty format of their website.  I've seen a lot of funny stuff reposted on other forums though.

/pol/ almost killed me with laughter during the Zimmerman trial.

Not nearly as edgy and scary as it's made out to be. It never was, to be truthful.

You should go.

Lots of fun stuff there.

Your first stop should be /b/, but don't forget to check out the other areas as well.

Avoid the trap and sissy threads. Every once in a while, something hilarious pops up, but it's not like it used to be.

Black hole on the internet would be the things you only access with a TOR

This is a gentle example of the responses you might get there; this is from their firearms/weapons/&c. Board /k/

OP if i were you i would go to /k/ its worth the laughs and some individuals on there actually do have relevant knowledge.
As for /b/ stay away from trap threads.

There are way more edgy and dark imageboard than 4chan. Truth be told if you avoid /b/ or ignore the shit on there you don't like and stick to /k/ and shitpost on /int/ you'll be fine.

/b/ isn't as funny or as dark as its reputation would indicate.

Either that, or I'm really twisted.

In any event, if anything good shows up on /b/, it'll be on Arfcom GD within a day or two, so it's not worth sifting through all of the crap over there.

So , it was pre '08 GD?

I tried going there twice.

The format made my head explode and I am pretty sure it caused the neighbors cat to miscarry.

Lots of the same shit, interspersed with Shock and Lols.  

It can make you turn your head or you'll laugh your ass off.

It's awesome.

Some people worry about running into child porn on there, but 4chan seems to police that kind of thing pretty well.
