Bump
You probably didn't get baited. Some newfags think
>be me
originated on reddit because that's where they first saw it.
This is bait, right?
Right?
OP what the fuck?
I'm guessing you DIDN'T get the pussy that night.
Damn straight I'll take that fucking low hanging fruit.
How did the campaign go from there

>papa franku
>5e
>Sleepver
You have to be 18 to post here.
>they don't organize grown ass men sleepovers to play a long ass session
I'd argue that only newfags still use it.
>Be me
Was out of style in most boards four years ago.
Hi Facebook. Not even reddit is that stupid.
I can't speak for other people, but I've definitely used it as bait before.
You're not wrong, but pointing out it doesn't make sense is even less hip than using it.
Implanting the idea that "getting (you)s means you're trolling even if you act like a retard!" is the greatest trolling of our time, as it has led thousands on the path of making fools of themselves.
Think about it this way: Our society conditions people to call out other people when they perform a socially unacceptable action, this in turn makes the ones called out become self conscious and thus desist their foolish behavior. This also applies to to other social gatherings, such as image boards, where you often learn your etiquette by observing which kinds of posts are ridiculed.
Now, comes the good part. By implanting the idea that you're doing a right thing ("trolling") when people tell you that you are acting foolish or outside the expected etiquette, you will continue to act like a retard regardless of the negative feedback; this leads to the affected party becoming more and more of a fool as time goes on and he refuses to acknowledge the expectations of others.
Truly some elder god tier trolling. Where did it even start?
>"papa franku"
>sleepover
>5e
This HAS to be bait
...right?

>we start with no equipment and in a cage
