The internet gone wrong – you’ll shit bricks

No, I am really quite sure I won’t shit bricks when I see your crappy picture.

Now don’t get me the wrong, I love the internet and all it’s little meme’s, but really, there needs to be some sort of quality control for the internet.

Yes motivational pictures are amusing, see below:

However, taking a picture where something isn’t immediately obvious to the naked eye, and then writing “you’ll shit bricks” underneath, is not funny. Even when something is genuinely shocking or amusing when you don’t first notice it; you don’t shit bricks; and no I’m not being literal here (of course you don’t actually shit bricks, idiot) no one is metaphorically shitting bricks either. A picture of a guy with a blind persons walking stick reading a newspaper does not make my glass of Coke come out of my nose, nor does it create any manner of stirrings in my nether regions.

I’ve seen literally one or two of these “you’ll shit bricks”” pictures that I’ve found even marginally entertaining, and that was mainly due to the offensive connotations as to the reasons why I might be defecating building materials. I’m fine with non-PC, although your attempt at satirical racism actually just comes off as ignorance, however what I am not ok with is idiocy. If you aren’t 100% convinced that your picture is the most hilarious thing this side of… well anything, then DON’T POST IT ANYWHERE. I can guarantee you no one else will find it funny. Heck, even if you are convinced it’s utterly hilarious, ask someone else who isn’t an idiot first.

If for whatever reason you have no idea of the existence of the motivational posters trend, or the “you’ll shit bricks” flavour, then go look them up. Though if you’re the sort of sad lonely individual who’s actually reading this, I’m sure you’re already aware.

No, this had nothing to do with gaming, but you still needed to be told.
