Another YEAR OF THE OWL

lol

Weee!!!

Probably Fake... but don't care xD

Sorry guys, I fixed the image so now you can read the last bit of the article. Oh, and I assure you it's real.

NO WAI!!1!1

Yes, quite really.

OMFGGGGG

Yay for memes. And owls.

o rly?

heh

Maybe the owl was chosen because it looks like it's saying O RLY? Asses

wowowowowowowowowowowowow

no wai!

YA RLY!

TOTAL WORLD DOMINATION!!!!!!!

FREAKING SWEET.

Looks faker than the Bible.

Awesome to the max!

The article is ripped off something, can't remember what.

O RLY?

We need to start our own word, see 4chan gots on the news, we need to get on the news too :P

WTF. This is when the world will end. (Its funnier if you read the whole article! lol!)

O MAI!

o rly

A CS:S server I go to had the O RLY bird before the summer, before WoW, before 4chan, before everything :(

Not really funny.

LSwho?

Bah.

WHAT? that can't be real...

logged in just to 5.

It didn't come from "4chan" whatever the hell that is.

NO WAI!!1

The Robots have taken me. Please send help.

O RLY?

It did start on 4chan. When the word "repost" was filtered out and replaced with "owl" thus spawning the O RLY pictures

Actually, it did come from 4chan. 4chan and YTMND are somewhat similar. Both big, both really random, and both have memes. 4chan is just pictures though.

It's real - http://www.tigerweekly.com/story.php?iidart=1524

the internet wins again!

The owl already governs the new world order. I'm sure this is the owl's attempt to govern the Internet too. O RLY? YA RLY!

O RLY?

It's just a college newspaper, right?

I was wondering why it was so poorly written, then I saw that it was a school newspaper. Still cool, though.

Thanks, jbltk. I should've found that link myself, but didn't really care if people thought it was real or not.

Yes, LSU (the university all of Nagin's chocolate city residents flocked to after Katrina) has at least three different newspapers circulating around it's campus. This being one of the sh*ttier ones.

yes

for great justice

Seriously who cares? If something related to YTMND hits the news it shouldn't be treated like some huge event.

Thank God Phillips knew its origin.

tehpwner2: You're right. The only newsworthy YTMND event would be your death via autoerotic asphyxiation. I'd downvote it.

A lame article about a lame unfunny fad in a University newspaper doesn't deserve to be a top YTMND. When it hits Time Magazine let me know.

LOL @ college newspapers having no real news

NO WAI!

when they say "it is unknown why an owl was..." what they mean is "we dont know how to google."

First this paper, then the WORLD....

ORLYFTW

yarly

5555 perfect song

Some people are complete morons. Some of these people work in the journalism career. One of these people is the guy who wrote this article.

XD wasn't it obvious why the owl was used... The expression it makes screams o rly...

omg newb

NO WAI! I'm really glad that 4chan got credit for it.

FIVE!!!! (AND ALSO LOL DOWNVOTERS)

The owl is taking over.

o rly? btw the owl has the expression for it

ORLY?

oh my god yes.

The funniest part about this is that you can visit the campus website and spam the comments section of the article with goofy crap. L5L

give in to the o rly overmind!

LMAO SOME sh*tTY NEWSPAPER DID A THING FROM INTERNET

Change the sound origin artist from "Kraftwerk" to "M&H Band". Don't believe what you read on filesharing services...

Adverb, I think you're a little too smart for YTMND and us mouthbreathers. Go back to Fark, yes?

hahahaha i love how it tries to make a logical explanation why the owl was chosen

NO WAI!

HOLY ROFL!

AND why is this #1? Matter of fact, the entire top 5 sucks an incredible amount of ass.

I already knew the Reveille and Tiger Weekly needed better stuff to write about and better writers. Why must they now screw up O Rly? Screw all college newspapers! -Miss. State grad 2004 -LSU grad 2005

Soon the O RLY owl will be on the cover of TIME magazine.

:D

NO WAI!!

NO WAI!

NO WAI!!

O RLY? XD

nice

YA RLY

NO WAI!

whoa u from LSU i'm from UL lol

I imagine my teacher saying " O RLY " to me now when I say I don't have an assignment.

That is actually interesting

wow a tiny snippet in a university newspaper. how amazing!

Best. Newspaper column. Evar. I want one in my newspaper.

o rly?

The the LSU Tiger Weekly like Tiger Beat magazine?

NO WAI!

that is the best find ive ever seen

8:57 am: While nursing a terrible hangover, Stephen Phillips suddenly realizes that he promised an article by nine.

"8:57 am: While nursing a terrible hangover, Stephen Phillips suddenly realizes that he promised an article by nine." YA RLY

WAI!!!!111

NO WAI!

LMAO at internet

I wish my newspaper was that cool.

Well, the O RLY owl wasn't started by YTMND, but I can see why its members would be interested, but it's not really funny or ironic since the segment is ABOUT internet terms. If it was in a real story or something, that would be interesting.

Can always count on tehpwner2 to bring down any ytmnd, if it's doing better then any of his... Funny shaz

There is a God :D

It's fake. You can see the slight line where the text was inserted.

"Is the song Popcorn made by Kraftwerk? No. (although some people like to say it is...) It is written and composed by Gershon Kingsley, the first release was in 1969, later recorded under the band name Hot Butter in 1972 by a group of musicians."

"Popcorn" song was written by Gershon Kingsley and three years later covered by Hot Butter band. This version (if came from P2P) is not covered by Kraftwerk but by M & H band.

Year of the OWL!

If it is fake, the creater did a good job, seeing as how the ink on the opposite page bleeds through, like that of a newspaper.

"I couldn't turn in the assignment because my computer crashed, and I had to spend all night on the phone getting computer help from my dad in South America" "O RLY?" "YA RLY!"

holy sh*t

Win? Ya RLY

HAHAHAHAHAHA

pfft, got NO WAI!!! wrong. im a better writer in retrospec.

O RLY?

Awesome. I love journalism.

OWL pwns :D

good good
