Google just can’t catch a break lately. After faceplanting like a drunken 5 year old (actually pretty sweet, I’ve seen it) during last week’s googlequake, they get nuked by the assholes over at 4chan who took it upon themselves to spam the site with wave after wave of porn clips crazy enough to make Buffalo Bill from Silence of the Lambs blush. Well, thank God for that, because it’s not like there aren’t enough places to get smut on the web, we had to make sure YouTube had it too.
I am the slightest bit torn, as griefing YouTube commenters does bring me a bit of joy, being my second least favorite people on the web (right behind, of course, people who frequent 4chan). That’s not to say the two are mutually exclusive, though. Here, I’ve made a diagram:

Still, couldn’t their asshattery be better placed? They had to hit that really great free site that RIAA/MPAA/Sith Lords are trying to take down?
It’s like you were invited to a chill party by that really cute girl in the coffee shop and a friend of a friend who overhears asks to come along. It’s not like you wanna be that exclusive dickhead, so you say sure, more the merrier. That’s when he invites his jackass buddy who pisses all over the beer in the fridge and throws up on coffee shop girl, just before the cops come to mistakenly throw your ass in the drunk tank.
So what do you do with a drunken 4chan earl-y in the morning? The same thing you do with any drunk: sic him on someone else. If he’s putting someone else’s cat in the microwave, he’s not teabagging your dog.
For starters, Internet denizens are suckers for “flash mobs” and 4chan is no exception. How about “Dress as your favorite Hell’s Angel” and try to blend in with other bikers you see? Perhaps even flash mob the Crips dressed as a Blood, or vice versa (depending on if you mind actual blood staining your blue clothes or merely blending in with the red). That’ll certainly cull a few douchebags off the web.
Of course, nothing inspires douchiness quite like misplaced anger. Give an asshole an issue, and he’ll be pissed for a day. Tell an asshole where he can find stupid shit to take offense to and he’ll be pissed for life. We just need to throw together a random “issue of the day” generator site and bam, they’ll be too occupied to even come up with coordinated attacks. You’ve got the deep pockets, Google. Let’s make this happen.
When all else fails, just remember that, like most sites, 4chan is nothing more than a hive mind following the pied piper of a few individuals. And what better place to channel hive minds than twitter? We simply drop a few twitter names in strategically placed threads on their boards, send out a few tweets to keep ‘em in line, and pull the strings on these puppets, like some virtual zombie army.
Just make sure to pack plenty of firepower. Build a better zombie trap and nature simply builds better zombies.
