That's just language in general, people together create lects like dialects, sociolects, etc. Just like how a group of friends have inside jokes only they know. Or memes emerge online to serve as symbols and references for communication.
Hexbear is an independent online social space, so of course we'd eventually see our own slang and lects! We even have our own lore, but I don't get it too much either tbh
Wait, we do?
Yeah like the one poster who wanted to fuck the bunny cop
I realize how that sounds. Maybe we should have a wiki like someone else suggested
the
what
look jack i can forgive a lot of rampant acts of furry and/or horny but what i can't forgive is someone wanting to plook a cop
Idk if I can even find links to it anymore, it was back in the r/chapotraphouse days...basically some person was oddly passionate about defending the bunny cop in Zootopia. I forget even the actual argument, something that ACAB doesn't apply to her for reasons
But everyone else just interpreted it as them having the hots for
and they ended up deleting their account lmao
@WIIHAPPYFEW@hexbear.net you have been summoned
Oh hey here ya go
Wow there's some interesting stuff on there lmao
Just imagining the corpus of something like "dorner hovercar" is entertaining on its own
Just make sure its Miraheze or something else that is not Fandom... that wikipedia maker puts a lot of intrusive ads into their content
It's just an image of the Hexbear iceberg. I hate to say that I understand about ninety percent
I'm just advising that if you're going to make a wiki on this... don't use Fandom... not the image itself...
You've never heard tale of the great Silver Legion attack?!
John Kerry
No I haven't...
You didn't see the effort post about how Hexbear formed after a CIA-adjacent reddit exec banned r/chapotraphouse during a purge of subs? There's lots of cool lore about different things that have happened over the last 3 years.
That's funny, with r/GenZedong, they just quarantined and made it die a la USSR collapse....
Bidets are bourgeois, don't you know
They are not. People have them in the Philippines, and most of them are not bourgeois
The person who said that is still active here, and every time I see them post all I can think about is how they think washing your asshole is bourgeois decadence
I know it smell crazy in there
Maybe he's a contrarian to J. Peterson's saying of "wash your balls" or something like that
Oh fuck do we ever. We had an iceberg thread a while back. This shit is downright arcane.
