Doesn't "recent activity" go in reverse order on Facebook?

Yes. Stupid oversights such as that are partly why 9gag is considered the lowest funny site on the internet food chain.

Note: FunnyJunk should be between Tumblr and Cheezburger.

I just realized that a 9gag user actually went through the trouble of translating that.

I think Cheezburger ought to be a lot lower. It primarily consists of I Can Has Cheezburger, Engrish, and Know Your Meme, right? Lolcats are so old, and KYM has changed from being a great meme catalog to ponyville. That's why I switched to 9gag; KYM was becoming useless (unless your goal is to see how many MLP fan pictures are out there).

And if 4chan is the mouth, it's a mouth with rotten teeth and incredibly bad breath.

So you're arguing that Cheezburger is worse than Digg? Really? At least it has Know Your Meme. Site can definitely be useful.

And I think the point of 4chan is that it has the most legitimately original content. I'm not going to say it's the best, because it's not. I'd argue Reddit is, personally. But 9gag...oh my god everything linked from that site is just banal, trite, and makes me want to punch the person who made it.

I don't use Digg, so I don't know about their quality. All I know is that Cheezburger is lame, except for older portions of Know Your Meme.

That's what it feels like sometimes.

You do realize that all the MLP stuff is only in a sub-site of Memebase, which in itself is a sub-site of Cheezburger? It hasn't exactly dominated the network. Furthermore, what the hell do you really have against MLP, anyway? I have heard you railing against it ever since you heard of it, and when I do ask, you always have some lame excuse like "I refuse to watch anything made in Flash" or something. Is it so hard to accept that a fanbase exists for a popular show, and that they would want to make their own content around it? Maybe it's time to consider that there may be many good reasons why the show is popular. It is certainly more likely than every single person in the fandom enjoying it ironically.

I realize it hasn't dominated the network, but is has dominated KYM (the only part I ever liked). The main thing I have against the show is that I used to like that site a lot. I'd go to the images section, and look through the new stuff for laughs. But for the past several months, it's filled with 2/3rds ponies. Most of which isn't even funny, it's more like regular fan art. If they'd put that stuff on fan art sites where it belongs, I wouldn't care, but no.

Think of a kid's show you just don't like. Now imagine half of Racketboy becomes obsessed with it, constantly posting pictures of it and making threads about it. Wouldn't that annoy you a bit? Wouldn't you wish the old Racketboy would come back? That's what it's like for me with KYM.
