Has q3w ever created a widespread internet rumor/video/pic?

Post by tnf »

As long as we've been around, has there been anything of note we've contributed to the internets? Any bullshit stories that ended up being forwarded to millions of people who thought it was true? Any short videos/pics? I seem to recall a thread long ago about this but I can't remember what had been done.

Case's gangsta picture with some german caption. Not world-captivating, but at least transcending q3w bounds.

Diego made the pict of Darth Vader standing over vanquished "rebel scum" saying,"Owned." and the various rebel scum making excuses such as "lag","crappy teams" and "shitty map".

I can't find it anywhere but I'm sure most of you have seen it.
