Don't worry. The members over at artcom will rip out a bot's guts and eat them for breakfast. Tough bunch.

Arfcom is just huge, so of course it's a very mixed bunch.

Not really, just a minor internet meme with variations of pictures of an anteater doing that pose. Someone photoshopped the anteater in to this Edward Hopper painting some months ago and it made the internet rounds, I just tacked on the eye-laser :P

I think it's somehow a better painting with the anteater.

Politicians and bureaucrats are considered productive if they swarm the populace like a plague of locust, devouring all substance in their path and leaving a swath of destruction like a firestorm. The technical term is "bipartisanship".

I am... not sure I understand the graphic.

I mean I understand what the image depicts - a cannon with what seems to be a Fleshlight up the barrel. I understand the slogan: "Arfcom - For Those About to F*** Off.". But the humor is not comperehensible to me.

fo is a meme spun from a now missing Arfcom poster named Shaunofthedead (SOTD)

In his final posting, he was debating going to meet up with some people for multiple partner extra marital activities

his last words posted were "F it, i am foing"

fo is a misspelling of go...

Shaun is legendary enough to be mentioned in the urban dictionary:
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Arfcom&defid=4108494

There are various theories as to whose Troll account SOTD was

the original cannon art work is from the AC/DC album
for those about to rock...

The fleshlight in the barrel was just an obvious visual pun

and now you know,
the rest of the story
