    So obviously I’m an idiot, I thought GoonCaves was the group people posted pictures of computer rooms overflowing with empty coke bottles, cigarette butts, fast food containers, and the occasional piss jug. What group am I thinking of?

    EDIT: NeckbeardNests, that’s what I was thinking of. Now see, that’s just wholesome internet content.

    arranging gooning meetups

    What?

    “Gooning is a flow state: an extended edging session marked by mindlessness, loss of control, and total surrender,”

    I had to stop reading this shit. I can’t believe there’s an article about it. I guess 404 can go ahead and go bankrupt, fuck off.

    Edit, to be fair, it was a quote from a Vice article.

      Makes sense, I thought it was about goons (crime) or gooning (evil goon voice “what up, boss?”, “Yes boss”).

    I had to websearch the term to know what they were talking about. Pfft, internet oddities.

    Case in point. At least some side is lying here; either the people from r/gooncaves or the Reddit administration. And given their modus operandi I’m placing my bets on the admins lying.

    Frankly, at this rate someone might end suing Reddit for libel in those ban messages. I think that it deserves it.

    Some go as far as to define themselves as ‘pornosexuals,’ people with a sexual preference for porn over real-life sex.”

    Y’all motherfuckers need Jesus.
