/o/ - Auto

/o/ is 4chan's imageboard for discussing automobiles, as well as trains, but not really trains.

Welcome to /o/

   "We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
   For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
   Shall be my br/o/ther; be he ne'er so vile,
   This day shall gentle his condition:
   And gentlemen across /otto/ now a-bed
   Shall think themselves accursed they were not here,
   And hold their manhoods cheap whilst any speaks
   That fought with us upon Saint Turtletron's day."

History

Culture

4chan's Automotive board revolves around Anonymous from other boards asking what car to buy (known colloquially as wat kar iz gud?); occasional pic dumps; poor trolling; actual car discussion flamed as trolling; tripfaggotry; and fanboi rage.

As with all cultures, there are cliques...

Tripfaggotry

/o/'s history of tripfaggotry is storied. In layman's terms, tripfags are bros; the camaraderie reaching the point where identities are revealed, phone numbers swap hands, and Facebook profiles exchanged. Even the occasional IRL meetup isn't unheard of. On /o/, tripfags constitute the majority of the regular population. Anonymous are somewhat common, and oftentimes most are just tripfags in disguise, samefagging their own threads.

Memes

Lolcantturn

Refers to understeering. This derogatory term is reserved for American cars stereotypically, although it is improperly associated with any car understeering. The posts containing the term sometimes are followed by a picture of a crashed car.

VTEC JUST KICKED IN YO

Used to be spammed often. It's popularity serves as a common misconception held by posters from other boards about /o/. Originating first from posters ridiculing Honda's VTEC, and popularized by the Virginia Tech Massacre, it is one of the least funny memes on /o/.
