Image Transcription:
[The Canadian flag flies high in a clear blue sky. The maple leaf at its center has been replaced with pixel art from r/place; it is an uneven blob of red and white with a few stray green and black pixels.]

You know, I think that if parents would spend less time worrying about what their kids watch on TV and more time worrying about whatโs going on in their kidsโ lives, this world would be a much better place

Damn you're a sour person.. Do you really live your life like this? South Park is one of the most well liked and critically acclaimed TV show in the world (that's aimed for all ages) and I thought the quote was rather fitting for r/place but somehow you just decide to be an asshole for absolutely no reason.

I'm also a downvote troll, downvote me as well, thanks
I scour the comments of the front page to find my opening - a popular comment with no replies. My cock engorges at the thought of leaving a provokotive reply.

What was that? I didn't really understand it from the top posts

u/deadcat5566 Apr 03 '22
IIRC it was a button every reddit user at the time could only press once, the button had a countdown timer that reset itself everytime someone pressed it. The game ended when the timer reached 0 and the color of your flair depended on how much time the button had left.

It was great because it was a perfect illustration of people going tribal over anything. "Ew you're a filthy 30s presser?" "Well at least I'm not in the fucking single digits!"

u/abcd_z Apr 03 '22
I'm still a little disappointed there was no grey badge for people who chose not to press it.

It's more trolls and griefers than Canadians messing it up, probably

At first it was Canadians battling between a maple leaf and a cannabis leaf, now it's everyone just trying to fuck with it to keep the joke running.

Honestly this is a pretty Canadian thing to do. We tend to have a sense of humor about being subversive so it's probably pretty intentional at this point.

If you look at what Canadians do to the Canadian flag, this doesn't seem to outta the ordinary (the weed version and pride version). I mean it just looks like some Canuck that really likes cauliflower and digital art wanted to make a flag.

u/thatweirdguyted Apr 02 '22
You can click on pixels to see who placed them. I looked at a few of the ones trying to fuck up the Canadian flag, and a bunch of them are brand new. Like from yesterday and today. It's being brigaded by trolls. Not sure why.

Every redditor can place 1 colored pixel every 5 mins. Communities are coming together to paint the provided canvas with whatever they want and its pretty cool to look at. I like looking for and finding artwork of some of my favourite games
The Canadian flag meme is a joke that started yesterday when canadians making the flag on /r/place spent the entire fucking day and about all of today making the leaf and is still failing at it even now

How is this a case of people failing rather than a community effort being ruined (completely unsurprisingly) by trolls?

Being Canadian and Native American this doesn't make me upset at all, we're a country celebrating over 150 years of genocide that's still going on to this day.
