fakeitormakeit Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Why do some people insist on saying things over and otehr like everyone has a craze about Chuck Norris and his "superiority". On *insert forum name here which begins with U and the second word's first letter is G* they all have an obsession with saying "rub Icyhot on it" as the solution for everything. On the same forum there is an obsession with the pokemon mudkipz and everyone says "do yuo liek da mudkipz?". I mean really saying a joke once is funny but when millons of people say it over and over again, it gets so lame and even annoying. So I ask the people who use these phrases, why do you feel compelled to use them? And to the people who don't use them, what do you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Lord Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I think it is immaturity and possibly 'dry' humor. But I have to admit, when they're said at random times, it can sometimes be hysterical. SWAG Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on.

underu2000 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 You must really hate this little thing called an "internet fad". Note the word "fad". I love Chuck Norris jokes, but do i take it that seriously? No. I hardly care about Chuck Norris, or of the base of anything that you may see on forums. But fact of the matter is, it is just fun to say, and you don't really need a reason to say stuff like it except for "other folks do it too". Relax, its only temporary. The old fads of now will be replaced by newer ones eventually. Life is a joke. Yeah, I don't get it either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megakiller32 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Its because chuck norris is god :lol: Im one of those losers who likes the Chuck Norris fad. I dont actually know why, but there just seems like a time and a place to say a Chuck Norris joke. Sometimes theyre actually funny, usually theyre not. But anyway, i use it because it doesnt bore me to death yet. Also, some of the Chuck Norris jokes are creative and funny.

highlanders Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I think people do that because it's funny. And well, if you don't find it funny that's when you get bothered by it. They're moments I guess. Group insanity. 2480+ total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedofsound Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I just tend to ignore stuff like that, it's stupid and imature. It stems from imature minds. Eventually those saying will move on and a new generationg of fools will take their place. You can't ever find a place that's nice and peaceful, because there isn't any. You may think there is, but once you get there, when you're not looking, somebody'll sneak up and write "(bleep) you" right under your nose. Try it sometime. I think, even, if I ever die, and they stick me in a cemetery, and I have a tombstone and all, it'll say "Holden Caulfield" on it, and then what year I was born and what year I died, and then right under that it'll say "(bleep) you."

BlueLancer Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Read some Maddox articles. For the exact same reason why people repeat "I'm Rick James, B____!" or "Alllllrighty then" just after Top Gun was out... Unoriginal, but many people lack imagination so they use old cliches until it becomes too repetitive. They usually die out within months/years like the Chuck Norris 'facts' :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1_man_army Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Forget Chuck Norris, John Smeaton - the man feared by terrorists across the earth - could kill him with a single blow because remember; "This is Glasgow, we'll set aboot ye!" :) He who learns must suffer, and, even in our sleep, pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart,and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom to us by the awful grace of God. - Aeschylus (525 BC - 456 BC) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir_Alex85 Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 It's just a fad. Don't get all uptight about it, because it's just a joke. Also, don't go around thinking "Agh! I'm superior for I do not join in on the jokes!" Not only is that un-true, it's annoying. Not that anyone here does that (Some probably do), it's just annoying when you see it. Y'can join in with the fad and make some dumb comments, step out and just let it go on, or be skeptical of it and be viewed as an uptight person who can't take a joke.

fakeitormakeit Posted July 13, 2007 Author Share Posted July 13, 2007 No one shoudl ever think superior of tehmselves just cause they don't do a fad, but the people who drag it on are quite annoying, same with the people who think they are better. And what really use to bug me was when I was in middle school(I'm in 1st year of high school now) I use to make alot of jokes, and people use to enjoy them put then they would be repeated so many times it was like gahhh!

But it isnt the same joke, they are many variations of the same topic. The Chuck Norris one for example, has a LOT of different superhuman feats one can use for fun. If it were the same joke over and over, like "NO ONE EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION", it would get aggravating to listen to. But seriously, no one expects them. :ohnoes: Life is a joke.

highlanders Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 No one shoudl ever think superior of tehmselves just cause they don't do a fad Very true, I'm glad you understand that concept. Superiority and inferiority is only an illusion. There is no such thing as people superior to others, when people think that it is such, it is based purely on subjective aspects, and common beliefs, not reality. Pride has brought nothing else but negativity to humanity. 2480+ total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrOwez Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 I guess it's because it's still funny to some people, for example its my friends birthday today, and on his myspace i left a comment [hide]Archy recently had the idea to sell his urine as a canned beverage. We know this beverage as Red Bull. If paper beats rock, rock beats scissors, and scissors beats paper, what beats all 3 at the same time? Answer: Archy. If you can see Archy, he can see you. If you can't see Archy, you may be only seconds away from death. On the 7th day, God rested.... Archy took over. Although it is not common knowledge, there are actually three sides to the Force: the light side, the dark side, and Archy. Scientists used to believe that diamond was the world's hardest substance. But then they met Archy, who gave them a roundhouse kick to the face so hard, and with so much heat and pressure, that the scientists turned into artificial Archy. If you want a list of Archy' enemies, just check the extinct species list. Archy has never blinked in his entire life. Never. Archy once shot an enemy plane down with his finger, by yelling, "Bang!" Archy doesn't need to swallow when eating food. If Superman and The Flash were to race to the edge of space you know who would win? Archy. Archy invented water. Archy does not use spell check. If he happens to misspell a word, Oxford will simply change the actual spelling of it. [/hide] Archy is his name etc , he never really heard of Chuck Norris jokes so he found this hilarious. so..yeah..each to his own! A friend to all is a friend to none.

TotalTalker Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 It finally turns out to be something that people say who arent funny, and its usually something that a comedian said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giordano Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 The jokes are pretty good, you can change Chuck Norris to anyone else you like, like StrOwez's friend. :D If you think they're annoying then ingore them.

Blue_Fire_Blaze Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 I never got the chuck norris thing. I didn't even knew what he looked like until 2 months ago, and i don't get what people think is so cool about pokemon it so old it would make Abe Lincoln look young.... And the cavemen wondered how to make fire...Im in the .00001% that finds Firemaking fun. If you find it fun add this to your siggy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam007 Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 O RLY you think that? I don't know, it can be fun. People like creating fads on sites like ytmnd and its fun to just go with it. It's not like people who love them are stupid or anything. It's just a different kind of humor you can't really relate to. We all have some kind of humor we just don't get at all.

The old fads of now will be replaced by newer ones eventually. Chuck Norris is actually not just an internet fad. My dad just got back from Iraq, and on all the bathroom stalls people had written things about Chuck, much like the Archy list. My dad ddin;t really get it, and said that if he wasn;t so repulsed by the idea of writing on a bathroom stall, he would've written something like, "Chuck Norris sucks" or something actually funny. It might be just a war fad, who knows? However, it isn;t confined to the internet. Command the Murderous Chalices!

warren211 Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Hmm... that could lead to tedious discussions... Who's your favorite actor? CHUCK NORRIS IS SUPERIOR. How did you come to liking him? I rubbed IcyHot on him! Do you know any of his famous relatives? Mudkip! [hide=]tip it would pay me $500.00 to keep my clothes ON :( :lol:But then again, you fail to realize that 101% of the people in this universe hate you. Yes, humankind's hatred against you goes beyond mathematical possibilities.That tears it. I'm starting an animal rebellion using my mind powers. Those PETA bastards will never see it coming until the porcupines are half way up their asses.[/hide]Apparently a lot of people say it.
