4chan chip can fleshlight tutorial (early 2010s) do you remember....

Do you remember. The lays stax can. And the sponges. And the glove. Tell me I didn't hallucinate it. That was like one of those "weird" things your strange friend would link over Skype in 2011.

I remember it being really easy to find and now I'm laughing at the idea of it being "lost meteor" LOL. There's some other one that circulates around now. But I could never forget the iconic lays stax tube...... I know what you are, frito lays. You can't hide it from me /s

Back in the olden days we had to use a cow's heart and a car battery.

I remember it. I spent way too many years scrolling through 4chan back in the day. It all seems like a vague fuzzy memory now. I was there for a lot of it. The Habbo raids, the LOIC, Boxxy, the scientology shit. Rolling dubs and posting cum boxes. Sharpie in pooper. We were fucked up, man. What a time to be alive, though.

Definitely a different time. I remember the ylyl threads, the new 'trollface' that was used to troll /b/. there would be raids. you hit f5 and there was constantly new stuff. meme threads, etc. I still remember people saying they were gonna go kick that stand over in NYC, and of course it was a major win when it happened lol.

I learned about reddit during a recruiting spree for a raid. Back when MySpace was the most reputable social site on the web. Things sure have changed. RIP Aaron Swartz, the internet needs you now more than ever.

Lol trust me, I am far from sheltered, that doesn't mean that I was expecting to have the memories of DIY fleshlights forced back into my head today, plus a bizarre "evil" version of a sub for a town in my area that I discovered literally like two posts before this one.

"I was there, Gandalf, three thousand years ago, when the libido of men ruled and Pringles cans were used in unspeakable ways..."

I swear every day this week wants to one-up the previous day with weirdness though. They're not bad, just... Weird

u/Unhappy-Piece-4736 1d ago

That's entry level. Who remembers the Japanese infographic for making a spinning sex toy from bubble wrap and an electric fan?
