4chan on Jeopardy

Posted by: Mike Pomranz | February 24, 2010 at 11:00am

Here's a potential Jeopardy prompt for you:

This traditionally-minded TV game show played with fire by using the website 4chan.org in a clue during a recent episode.

Um, what is "Jeopardy," Alex?

You're right!

However, what's not right is Jeopardy's assertion that 4chan is "known" for posting "images." ("Images" was the correct answer for those of you who were wondering.)

The prompt is really vague. Here are other answers I personally would have accepted:

What are "Lolcats"?
What are "Advice Dogs"?
What are "photos of their penises"?
What are "photos of other people's penises"?
What are "photos of other people's penises that have been mutilated"?
What are "Simpsons' screengrabs"?

You get the point. There are so many wonderful things that 4chan is known for other than just "images."
