The Oatmeal is a
satiric cartoon site run by Matthew Inman. About a year ago, he noticed
that his content was being uploaded without attribution to a site
called “The FunnJunk.” The FunnyJunk is a site that contains user
generated content. This means that account holders post things that
they like from all over the internet. Maybe a pre-Pinterest sort of
site. The Oatmeal writes to the FunnyJunk requesting that the
information be removed.
FunnyJunk took down the comics but proceeded to create a mirror image
of The Oatmeal’s website. The Oatmeal responded by asking his readers what to do.
The FunnyJunk responded with a call to action
to its own users asking them to inundate The Oatmeal’s inbox and
facebook page. The FJ’s users responded in droves using their arsenal of
retorts such as gay slurs and incoherently misspelled sentences to
insult The Oatmeal and his biological predecessors for having the gall
to procreate and, I guess, learn how to spell and draw.
