Why is the Dumb Rating a Box - ijfeswijfae - 03-09-2013

Seriously, what was Facepunch smoking when they decided that it must be a box?

Maybe implying that the post contains as many useful items as an empty box, or perhaps the poster's head does?

Ah, it makes sense now.

In that case, they must've been 420'ing to come up with such an analogy implied through a freaking box.

Really, though, what would be a good symbol? The only thing I could think of would be a dunce cap, which is kind of a century too old to be using as an icon in my opinion...

It's because boxes are dumb.

This should be the dumb icon.

I always thought it was a brick.

Funny enough a brick makes more sence than a box when refering to "dumb".


RE: Why is the Dumb Rating a Box - Innerwebs - 03-11-2013

Hece the phrase 'dumb as a brick (wall)'.

And, when failing to make a point in an argument, it's like talking to a brick wall.
