you prove yourself wrong. where do you think the "AIDS and fail" meme came from, if not /b/? Don't visit /b/, my ass... and yes, 4chan would not be the same without /b/, but you elitists who think you're better than /b/ that cause half the problem. The other half are idiots who constantly talk about "grinman" and "reaction guys" or whatever. Cockmongler and Gaijin 4-koma, seriously. I'm not going to bother with copypasta of the speech about how /b/ is where we go to be monsters, because I'm sure you know it, but let me say this: 4chan is the intersection of American otaku and Japanese visual culture. It, and it's sister boards at 7chan, iichan, and others, are the closest most of us will ever get to 2channel. /b/ serves two purposes. It's the root of all memes - and yes, I recognize that this distinction is shared with YTMND and sometimes SA. It's second is to keep the noobs out of the other boards. It's a containment zone for the idiots, the 13-year-olds, until they're banned for posting jailbait or cp and all rejoice and joyously consume Hot Dogs in the name of Eris.
