I have wanted to say this for so long, don't care how much hate I get, I just need to say it.

Cthulhu, shut up about him/ it. It is not funny, not cool and quite dull. Just putting his name on every thread as some people do.

Most people here constantly say 'Shut it with the memes' 'I don't get involved in pointless memes' and so on. So why do people all carry on with this even more annoying one? It isn't even funny, I've seen all the 4chan stuff, but I don't have an urge to constantly spurt his name across threads like squirty cream across a pie.

In all honesty, he is awesome. And the fact he is almost 80 years old and still going strong,fair play to him. Just look at him!

He is cool, yes. But he does not need you to constantly call his name out randomly on threads.

That felt good, emails of hate to the usually place

Shh... you will incur the wrath of the Shrabgrop!

And I must have missed most of these mentions of Cthulhu, was it that bad?

Sweet, i didn't know we could talk about Cthulhu on here!

I hang out on Role Playing forums most of the time, and Cthulhu has been an established part of that culture for years, so it never occurred to me how far he had penetrated the internet beyond that.

I haven't really seen any threads about any Lovecraft stuff on here though.

Wait. Cthulhu was a meme?

I haven't seen him mentioned forever. I think you're getting worked up for nothing.

It can get bad at times, I just ignore them now tbh.

/sigh

Little older than that I think...like millenia.
Me thinking real world for the first time in my life 'Cthulhu first appearing in the short story "The Call of Cthulhu" when it was published in Weird Tales in 1928.' Misunderstandings

I've never seen Cthulhu being randomly mentioned in a way which makes it annoying. If he is mentioned, it is always in context with the thread. So I don't see what the big deal is.

It's not like mentioning him makes posts look silly either. Like Candlejack. That usually makes

I haven't seen Cthulthu mentioned in aaaaaaages, nor a zombie apocalypse thread.

I think he means the actual fictional creature is suppost to be much older than 80.

Exactly. Although I wonder if quoting you would
