Actually, you’re nominated for a Webby. A Webby for the Best Communityon the entire internet. And you really deserve it. You’re the most passionate, caring community of people. You come together to fight for net neutrality, have celebrated yourselves and signal-boosted others in the #BlackExcellence365 tag, and showed up strong during the National Voter Registration Day to make sure your voices were heard in the U.S. mid-term elections.
In between the serious stuff, you have some serious fun. You make Mishapocolypse trend on Tumblr every single year, go buck wild with your ships, and we guess the BTS fans are kinda-sorta passionate, too…seeing as it’s been proven impossible for any other K-pop group to bump them from their No. 1 trending spot on our weekly Top K-Pop lists.
The last day to vote is April 18, so there’s still time to head on over, tap a few buttons, and ensure your seventh Best Community win. It only takes a minute.

“Man, I hope this is how people cut hair.” “You know it’s not.” [obstinately prolonged scissor noise]
i looked this up a while ago and apparently this is exactly how youre supposed to give yourself a trim if you have long hair i could find anything about my own short hair though which kinda sucks but whatever
The Burger King Kids Club, representing all the ‘90s identities:
Black
Hispanic
Nerd
Tomboy
Disabled
Stacy
Geek
Dog
Technically I think the short butchy-looking guy is the nerd and the guy with the backwards cap is a “coolkid”, which is a distinct genus. This may seem like splitting hairs, but it’s important that we recognize the cultural distinctiveness of coolkids in order to honour their sacrifices during the Cola Wars.
The coolkid was a kind of cyber-Fonz, a
“women want him, men want to be him” archetype as targeted toward twelve-year-old dorks with chunky white sneakers.
It was a laboratory-designed hybrid of nerd and greaser engineered to target the market sector of the former using the charisma and popularity of the latter. Toward the late 90s there was some further crossbreeding with rappers in order to counteract the diminishing relevance of greasers, but in the early 90s that was still too threatening for mainstream white suburbanites with money.
Anyhow, I went looking for some more vintage examples but it’s surprisingly hard to find ones that aren’t later parodies so I’ll just link this fucker.
