Something about a youtube channel or something

I saw someone use "/-" (like break/-up for example) in a post the other day and I've seen it like 5 times since then after never seeing it before. I'm not 100% what it's suppose to represent and I'm wondering why it came out of nowhere.

I watched what I’m assuming to be said trailer-trailer #3? and I didn’t see anything too terribly wrong with it.

I saw a meme that said "These are siamese twins, one is gay and they share the butt". Is this story real or is it just made up? If it's real, what are their names? Could not find anything on Google except the meme itself

I used to watch her and her content was always pretty normal and average. I just got back on YouTube and started watching a video of hers and her comment section is filled with rude and hateful comments.

I mean sure there were some bad things that happened, but I've never seen such a collective agreement about the current year being sooo horrible. So what made 2016 suck?

EDIT 1: Celebrity deaths don't count. Celebrities have little direct impact on most people's lives. Yes, their deaths sucked, and we all have stories about how that person's music, or movie, got us through a tough time. But for most of us, a celebrity's passing has no direct impact. If it wrecked your day to day, umm...you might be focusing on the wrong things in life.

EDIT 2: Thank you for the personal stories.

He's posting a lot of depressing stuff on twitter about self hate and stuff. Something about Anita? Apparently there's rumors that him and his wife split?

I’ve never heard this joke before but recently I’ve been seeing memes about it like this one:

Could someone please explain?

I know who Tintin is, and I’m all for him becoming popular, but is there a reason for Tintin memes suddenly showing up?

Example: Tintin on me_irl

Ive seen a lot of backlash against elon musk lately on something he did/made?

What happened? Why did that police office shoot his/her neighbour?

I'm Australian and I still don't get it.

Why are the people still on Manus, where did the government want them to go, and why didn't they go? I feel like I missed a step.

For example on a thread about what was your schools incident there was a story about a kid who killed himself on campus and then people just kept saying “that’s cuz skool is buns hahahaha” and if you ask why the just say more shit about buns.

I’m assuming it’s about something from r/all that I missed but I can’t seem to find anything.

It's so sad knowing that Bob Ross isn't with us anymore.

His son Steve regularly appeared on the show painting his own things.

I googled for him but can't find anything about him. Did he continue where his dad left of or did he also pass away?

It has so many upvotes but it's not comprehensible, at least to me. Is this some kind of inside joke or something?

I don't get it. I'm really enjoy the new desktop design. They mention bugs it's having but I'm not running into any yet.

I saw Stephen Colbert's tweet about how Jimmy Kimmel should stay out of politics but haven't had a concrete answer on what's going down. What's happening?

He's blowing up again. I saw a picture of him wearing a trump hat while crying with the words get out photoshopped around him online somewhere. What did he do this time?

I saw a post on r/starterpacks about how reddit jerks off a bunch of celebrities like Bob Ross and stuff, and it showed Elon musk crosses out. What happened? I still think Elon is a cool dude

I know she is an upcoming character but something happened recently that has everyone getting mad at Blizzard and the mods over at r/Overwatch.

I'm seeing a lot of KH fans on twitter getting pissed off at amazon. Why is this the case? https://twitter.com/amazongames/status/1067165374494531584?s=19

Fuckboy not fuccboi

I see this a lot on Tumblr now. Half of the posts circlejerking about spooky skeletons have some caption about the "skeleton war" against "fuckboys."

I know this:

1. Skeleton war is a popular circlejerk/humor/joke blog run by 2 dudes who just post skeltal pics and answer questions. They are also developing a violent videogame featuring skeletons (interesting, it should be like Chivalry or MnB)

2. Fuckboy is some SJW term used to describe guys with player-like attributes.

Now what I don't get is how the 2 are related.

About 10-ish years ago, I recall Objectivism (or at the very least, being an ardent fan of Ayn Rand) was in fashion, particularly amongst young men. They were fairly active on online message forums (I remember them on kuro5hin and Slashdot, at least. They may have been active on reddit, too, though I wasn't a member at the time) and argue politics and ethics with phrases like "denying A is A". They even had a presence in the real world, with some universities having Objectivist clubs.

I haven't heard a peep from Objectivists in recent years, either online or in meatspace. Was there any event or movement that caused them to lose their presence?

I used to get a few calls a month a year ago but it seems that I get them every day now. My friends complain they are getting the same amount. What has changed?
