| 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. | ||||||
| 5 | ||||||
| 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! | ||||||
| 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 | ||||||
| LSU kicks ass | ||||||
| Dude, you had the right to not resist! | ||||||
| O RLY?! | ||||||
| O RLY WILL TAKE OVEHE WORLD!!!! YA RLY!!!!! | ||||||
| XD | ||||||
| "oh neat: ... a lame unfunny fad in a University newspaper doesn't deserve to be a top YTMND. When it hits Time Magazine let me know." - O RLY? | ||||||
| An article from a crappy university paper. Big. f*cking. deal. /sarcasm | ||||||
| Great find. | ||||||
| congrats on your first ytmnd | ||||||
| logged in to 5 this. that article is great! | ||||||
| The owl knows. | ||||||
| http://ytmndtime.ytmnd.com :P | ||||||
| 5'd with the log in | ||||||
| buttsecks? | ||||||
| Awesome, man. Spread the O RLY! | ||||||
| Have them write a story about TEH GHEY | ||||||
| Aside from the unfunny part (which is spot-on,) if you're going to work on the "found art" angle, you have to be more creative with it tahn just pasting it and using a f*cking fad song. MAKE IT ORIGINAL. | ||||||
| Doubt it's fake to the skeptics, though. Anybody who thinks "omg an owl article" is funny isn't going to use the word "dubeity." | ||||||
| FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE
orz.4chan.org/5/ | ||||||
| I for one welcome our O RLY? overlords. | ||||||
| LOL | ||||||
| OMG! NO WAI! | ||||||
| lolwut? | ||||||
| kitties | ||||||
| /b/tards, we're in your school newspaper, WRRRRRRYYYYYYYY'ding the article about our owl. | ||||||
| orly?!!! - Yes i know, original | ||||||
| The papers are just realizing this? xD | ||||||
| O RLY? | ||||||
| If you are going to post a "fad" then you should use the "fad song" associated with the fad. Nice work. | ||||||
| if you could cut off a bit of the empty space at the top of the image, all of the article would fit on my screen :( | ||||||
| I approve | ||||||
| This isn't really a good thing.. any time an internet term gets mainstream attention, it becomes played out, unfunny, and downright lame like 'All Your Base' or 'Leeroy Jenkins' have become. Do you really want middle aged Soccer Moms using O RLY? | ||||||
| "This isn't really a good thing.. any time an internet term gets mainstream attention, it

Y | ||||||
| ^^ YA RLY! | ||||||
| When has a Soccer Mom ever quote a internet fad? | ||||||
| an average ytmnd if there ever was one. dudes, there are 3 stars between the one on the right and the one on the left. | ||||||
| That's the funniest article ever | ||||||

| ||||||
| -agreed, as soon as I saw "all you base are belong to us" on the back of a 40 year old mans pickup, and later leeroy jenkins on jeopardy it just ruined them forever. | ||||||
| god damn what kind of stupid f*ckin newspaper is that from | ||||||
| two for poor, poor journalism | ||||||

| ORLY? | ||||||
| NO WAI!!!1 | ||||||
| RESPECT TO LSU'S TIGER WEEKLY!! | ||||||
| no mention of ytmnd : | ||||||
| friggin sweet | ||||||
| It's just a university newspaper, but that's not going to prevent people from upvoting the sh*t out of this. It doesn't even mention YTMND...stop spazzing out, people. | ||||||
| +5 because my grandma used to tell a racist joke that ended in "if I knew what was what, I'd be a Sophomore at LSU" and nobody remembers the actual joke anymore. Lol, obscurity. | ||||||
| they used the owl because the f*cking thing looked surprised. it's not rocket science dumbasses | ||||||
| 4chaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan. | ||||||
| 5 because it gives proper credits to 4chan. | ||||||
| 4CHAN ORIGINAL CONTENT!!!11!!!oneone!!!eleven | ||||||
| "O RLY is usually followed by YA RLY, which is sometimes followed by NO WAI." LOLOLOL | ||||||
| The fact that it originated here in Baton Rouge gives it a five. | ||||||
| College newspapers don't count. | ||||||
| Hm.. not that interesting.</downvote> | ||||||
| Wow, the press actually described an internet trend acurately... | ||||||
| o wite | ||||||
| rofl... | ||||||

It's not a problem with me as I like it, for some others it'll be bad.

| INSTANT WIN! | ||||||
| I know the girl who wrote this. | ||||||
| that journalist doesn't know sh*t, o rly doesn't always express doubt, and that owl was chosen becuz of its facial expression, not becuz its wise lolz what a noob | ||||||
| This is from wiki. | ||||||
| good find. 5'd | ||||||

| EVERYDAY IS OWL!!!!
ｷﾀ━━━━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━━━━!!!!! | ||||||
| NO WAI1?!!! | ||||||
| urkelweakness.ytmnd.com | ||||||
| NO WAI! | ||||||
| The term came about because 'repost' was wordfiltered into owl. So someone put O RLY onto the owl to signify repost. If you're wondering | ||||||
