Photoshops

For a while back in 2001 and 2002, J’raxis participated from time to time in Fark’s “Photoshop contests.” Basically the point was to take some image that the Fark editors had selected and edit in an amusing, silly, or stupid manner. Some of these things refer to long-running Fark jokes (some of which are now dead), so you probably won’t understand them.

Fark Tags

“Fark Tags” are the small images that Fark uses to categorize an article appearing on the site, e.g., “newsflash,”“amusing,” or “dumbass.” J’raxis made these particularly cynical Fark Tags back in 2001, when Fark appeared to be going downhill fast.

  1. Old Joke: Everything seems to be a repeat joke on Fark…
  2. Repeat: …Or a repeat (“dupe”) article.
  3. Jingoism: You can always count on Fark for mindless patriotism.
  4. Flamewar: Describing most any comments thread.
  5. Sellout: How many articles on Fark, exactly, are paid placements?
  6. Bannerfarm: So many Fark links result in banner or popup hell…
  7. Just Ads: And sometimes they’re just ads!
  8. Spam: Starting to notice a pattern?
  9. Bullshit: Too many articles should be given this tag.
  10. Utter Crap: 90% of everything is crap. 90% of Fark is utter crap.
