people have a weird primacy bias where they decide that whatever was their gay shit first is the gay shit that all other gay shit must have come from. as if flippancy and irreverence on the internet is a unique quality that can only have been stolen. it's like that episode of the simpsons with the lemon tree where the kids accuse the kids from shelbyville of copying them by wearing their backpacks over one shoulder.

4chan's a big one, but I'm sure there's also people who'd swear we're a wannabe LUE or even Reddit

I wouldn't deny we owe a lot to Something Awful, and, like, Severed Heads and Blamco Boom, but that's mostly it. clock crew's a little more esoteric than most easy comparisons, mostly because our central premise is so fucking weird.

ok, first things first:
WHAT is the LUE?!!

also, i know something awful, and reddit, but what is the severed heads, and the blamco boom?
do we owe our inside-joke (or memes) to those guys?

help me here, slurpee. i need some CC intel, and you are the guy with the most knowledge in those things.

im not, first of all. i was part of the big wave of newbs that joined the clock crew after the void II came out, at which point the early days of the clock crew were already well passed their prime. i only know anything about that time period because i picked it up from people who were there while they were still around

severed heads and blamco
were
uh

okay, so... the clock crew as you know it is a pretty different beast from what it was in, like, 2001-2. the internet was a lot smaller, and most of what we do now echoes in some way what was basically a group of adolescent dudes goofing off in or around newgrounds 13 years ago (so, maybe not so different, after all). and blamco and severed heads were contemporary related but distinct groups of adolescent dudes goofing off in or around newgrounds. there was some interplay because a lot of people were on the same sites.

LUE is a gamefaqs board. maybe it still exists? idek. doesn't matter.

We didn't like memes before they were popular man.
