Peak 4chan for me was that post titled "Hey /b/ros, what's in your freezer?" with a picture of a frozen human foot. That, or the one where a guy strangled this woman and left her naked on her bed, for her teenage son to find when he got home.

Yeah, I mean, if you really want to remember specifically the people who abused their anonymity to portray themaelves as edgelords, go ahead. I'll choose to remember the creativity.

Lmao 4chan was never really about creativity. It did/does have its moments though, and I suppose the ones I mentioned weren't really peak 4chan - although they were a big part of what defined it.

What pisses me off is how right wing extremists have basically captured the site and its style.
