A random post about nothing – who is Boxxy?
If you’ve been on the internet recently, then you probably have learned that everyone’s favourite meme is back. That’s right, I’m talking about the Queen of /B/, Boxxy. And let me just say, ever since she first blessed the internets with her ADD and over-the-top videos, I have been in love. Maybe it wasn’t love at first sight, but rather love at first troll. Ever since she cried out “I’m am not trollin!” and “My name is Boxxy!” the world has become such a better place. At least in my eyes. And my eyes see all. Like the eye of Sauron. But one does not simply meme into Mordor.
But what makes Boxxy such a great person? Maybe it’s the fact her first videos consisted of her wearing an Aqua Teen Hunger Force shirt. For those of you who don’t know what Aqua Teen Hunger Force is, allow me to explain to the best of my abilities. Three over-sized food products: a drink cup, a wad of meat and a box of French fries “solve mysteries”. Sort of. They more or less sit around watching TV and do random shit with their fat, sex-addict of a neighbour named Carl. You see what I’m getting at? This show is perfect for representing theatre of the absurd. And what goes good with absurd nonsense? Why, 4Chan of course.
But I think it goes beyond just the shirt she was wearing in her original videos. I think it’s more the fact that she is nuts. Obviously without a milligram of Ritalin in her, Boxxy represents the internet perfectly. She is the embodiment of all things random, spam, and obscure. Because isn’t that what the internet really is? A place where we can be… dare I say… be anonymous?
I mean, really. The internet is what it is a warzone. Full of flame wars, nonsense and people claiming to be neo Nazis, racists, and just fucking retarded. And no one can do anything about it. I mean, take a look at this page from our friends at Cracked about mental disorders associated with the types of internet users.
Funny thing is, in real life I have asperger’s syndrome, apparently. Although as the comments on that page explain in typical flame war fashion, the aspergers representation is more likely to be anti-social rather than have asperger’s. But that’s the other thing about the internet. It’s all about opinions and preferences and forcing your views onto others like a Mormon. It’s best to ignore these people or fight fire with fire.
Anyway, back to Boxxy. Why is it that Boxxy is the most amazing human being in the world? Well, on her new Youtube page, she already has over 50K subscribers after only posting two videos. Those aren’t views. Those are people who subscribe to see when she will post a new video. The number of views her video has (I will exclude her A New Hope video) is well over 100K. Do you have any idea how insane that is? If she were to run for president, Barack Obama would be murdered in the polls. And Boxxy wouldn’t even need Oprah backing her, because 4Chan is like one billion Oprahs. And their power level is way over 9000. Boxxy would murder Chuck Norris, Epic Beard Man and Star Wars Kid with a single post. She is the internet.
Now, I know some people hate Boxxy. And I can understand why. She’s annoying as fuck, has more followers than a good cult leader and Justin Bieber’s twitter page combined, and let’s be honest here, jealousy can play a big factor. I mean, how is it that more people care about Boxxy than the state of the economy? Is this really what the world comes down to? Fetishes? Nonsense? Spam? And inside jokes that make no sense at all?
All your /b/ are belong to Boxxy. Let’s put it that way. She is what makes the internet what it is. And if you don’t like it, there’s always the library.
