Ragequit:

[hover]

Only funny in that thread, and nothing else. Stop using it.

Thanks.

What is this Ragequit?

[hover]

a "funny" from another thread (on this page) that some are trying to turn into a meme. Like "carrots". Only it's not working.

I thought it was the new album from Zack de la Rocha.

This is why I'm tantrum quitting talkbass

It's a great word, but nothing more than a short way of saying, "quitting in a flaming rage of a childish tantrum."

Ragequat- like a Kumquat but sour & bitter rather than fruity.

From: "8 Things the Internet Ruined" by Kevin Corrigan - CollegeHumor Article

3. The Number 9000 and Jokes - Internet memes are great because anyone can join in on the fun. Internet memes are terrible because everyone joins in on the fun, but never stops. The Internet doesn’t beat dead horses. It pounds the ground where a horse decomposed with its fists, even though there are no horse parts left to punch. The Internet can’t get hold of a joke without destroying it.

I can’t see the number 9000 anymore without thinking of Vegeta from Dragonball Z. It’s not because I think that meme is funny. It’s because every time there’s a number over 9000 online, some stupid 15-year-old that I want to punch in the stupid face has to make that joke in the comments. That joke started in 2006. It’s been 2012 for weeks now and it still happens. That’s six years. Jokes aren’t funny for six years. Chappelle’s Show was still on in 2006. Can you imagine how annoying it would be if people were still yelling “I’m Rick James, Bitch!” Welcome to the Internet.

exactly. Talkbass does not need another "carrots". Like jokes about Meev (tho oddly, jokes about NTB are still funny, or the Quintar)

It's old hat. Trying to force it back into every new post is just tired. As John Turner said IN that "other" thread, it's been around for a decade. Let it die. Excellent post, ShredderMax!

Uh... Trying to turn into a meme? are you... new to the internet... or.... something, maybe? it's been a meme for a lot longer than this thread... and is actually a gamer term.

A meme here. Sorry I was not more clear. I know, thanks for that tho, feel better?

All your base belongs to....and all that crap.

[Jake Saint]

not really. just making sure you were aware. Meme's aren't exactly unique to location you know. A meme's a meme.

[FrankenIbanez70]

I believe the term "ragequit" has existed since video games were invented. so uh, its not new, and will never be a meme.

You got me there my man.

[ugly_bassplayer]

Funny that most of people don't know the true origin of "carrots" on TB.
