Okay, here's the deal...

One of the most annoying and obnoxious stereotypes in nerd culture is the "um ackshually" guy. Surely you know the type: that one asshole who will insert himself into any-fucking-thing you try to talk about in his presence, say "um, ackshually..." and proceed to spout something inane, wrong, tangential at best, and/or so long-winded you'll forget what you were talking about if you don't have the balls to shut him up. He has memorized volumes of Shit Nobody Cares About on a variety of topics, usually centering on anime, comics, or /tg/ material, always either the least-common-denominator of those mediums or something nobody's heard of that he latched onto like a duckling latches onto the first thing it sees, and will often try to derive jargon from it as if other people could ever know what the fuck he's talking about. He cannot fucking stop himself from sharing this with everyone, because he has nothing else to offer the world and takes solace in being an "expert" in such random crap. It gets even better if you reveal you do, in fact, know enough about the topic in question to call him on his shit, as he will invariably throw a tantrum when what he sees as his sole redeeming value is threatened. Everyone hates that guy, including himself. He is one of the lowest forms of neckbeard, below even the theater kid and often comorbid with the furry.

On the Internet the "um ackshually" guy, without anyone to interrupt, has to spout his irritating nonsense someplace else: wikis. It is the "um ackshually" guy who gives us the bureaucratic fucks on Wikipedia who try to "correct" Ph.D's in their chosen fields on shit they spent six years studying. It is the "um ackshually" guy who is responsible for TVTropes, in all its septic glory, where everyone's seeming goal is to staple as many blue words onto as many things as physically possible. And, on our very own 1d4chan, it was the "um ackshually" guy who decided every turd that came out of a TSR employee's asshole needed to be preserved in wiki form for all eternity, everything with a statblock in his favorite game needed a full profile, and every other paragraph needs a sentence fragment or three that undermines the idea and readability of the entire thing, like surgically implanting a second appendix. The latter group are the gang of idiots who founded the 1d4chan discord, and consequently 1d6chan.

Please stop being the "um ackshually" guy. 1d4chan is (was) culturally descended from ED, almost deliberately created as an antidote to the autistic cancer represented by the "um ackshually" guy. Articles should be short, punchy, useful, relevant to /tg/ culture (especially /tg/ culture as of the 2008-2012 period when 90% of the articles that don't blow chunks were written) and short. This doesn't mean everything has to be a stub or copying from 1d6chan is totally verboten, but article length should as a rule be proportionate to the amount /tg/ as a culture has to say about something that can't be looked up in a splatbook or other primary source. What you've generally been doing is the opposite of that, and it's pissing me off. Pachinko Man (talk) 02:37, 10 August 2025 (UTC)

This is what you are doing now, eh? You are such a pathetic little creature. 88.188.8.167 16:10, 1 September 2025 (UTC)
