You Laugh, You Lose
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
Part of The Cancer That Is Killing /b/, this meme originated in 4chan's /b/. You Laugh, You Lose threads are what posters with no sense of lulz like to start.
In these threads, gaiafags prove their massive virginity skillz by reposting as many played-out image macros, memes, and other retarded images/copypasta that nobody gives a shit about as possible. The idea is to look at all the shitty images and not laugh, which requires absolutely no effort because, as noted, none of them are even remotely funny. Unless you frequent Uncyclopedia or, God help us, Ebaum's World.
These threads are Bel Air combo magnets. The OPs are dick magnets.
Moar like "You Laugh You're a Loser plx 2b killing self kthx!"
[edit] Origins
Many claim that You Laugh, You Lose threads used to be entirely different from what they are today. The idea being that you or somebody else posts an image that is seriously offensive. Anyone that laughs at the posted image, loses. Anyone who laughs is no longer considered a functioning member of society and therefore loses. I suppose anyone who laughs at these threads is still no longer a functioning member of society, so not much has changed really.
[edit] Difficulty Levels
In an attempt to mix up You Laugh, You Lose threads, sometimes the OP will state difficulty levels. In general the higher or lower difficulty the less funny the thread is.
| Difficulty | You Can't |
|---|---|
| None specified | Laugh |
| Hard | Smile |
| Nightmare | Smirk |
| Nitemare | Blink |
| Nigger | Be Black |
| Anything easier than normal | Not laugh |
