'''/o/ - Auto''' [[4chan]] imageboard.

[[File:Otto.jpg|250px|thumb|right|wat]]
/o/ is an [[imageboard]] for discussing automobiles, as well as trains, but not really trains.

== Welcome to /o/ ==
 "You have never witnessed such trolling. Also mustangs." 

[[Image:Durr.png|thumb|/o/.jpg]]
== 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; motorcycle threads and fanboi rage.

As with all cultures, there are various cliques that spawn based on associations of medium, of like-interests, and of general behavior. Tripfags congregate amongst non-4chan /o/ forums to further their circlejerking experience to the point of IRL dick sucking at different truck stops. 

== Tripfaggotry ==
/o/'s history of [[tripfag]]gotry 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 new posters or random passersby asking for advice.

The amount of tripfags increases vastly during the summer, but only few survive over the winter season.

=== List of Notable Tripfags ===

=== Moderators ===
; Brosifine : On 2011/08/25, claimed to be a mod and stated as evidence the post count for a specific trip user. However, such information is publicly available at http://archive.no-ip.org/o/reports/post-count

; GBawdyMagic : Suspected moderator.

; John Dorsey : On 2011/10, it was confirmed as a temporary mod. He was later found dead.

; Ke7ch : Confirmed that he ''was'' a moderator. His position was cordially declined by himself after becoming "bored". "Banning mad Anons loses its whimsy after a while"- Ke7ch

== Memes ==
=== Alpha as Fuck ===
The idea that riding a motorcycle somehow changes you from a fat loser to a bad ass babe magnet.

=== Anons don't own cars ===
[[Anonymous]] does not own cars. If Anonymous says he does, he's lying. 

=== Come At Me Bro ===
[[Tripfag]] code for "I do wish you to cum on my face, bro."

=== Forza vs. GT5 ===
Long article goes here, detailing past races and notable racers. No mention of '''TDU2''' or '''GTA:SA''' at all allowed

=== Lolcantturn ===
'''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 are sometimes followed by a picture of a crashed Mustang.

=== VTEC JUST KICKED IN YO ===
This [[meme]] used to be spammed often. Its 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/.
* See: ''[[VTEC JUST KICKED IN YO]]''

=== WAT Racing ===
'''WAT Racing Development''' is a meme based off '''TRD - Toyota Racing Development'''. Two tripfags, '''Nohomo/flapjack''' & '''Fc3sfag''' decided to show their love of WAT by creating a website, which is now defunct. 

NOHOMO/Flapjack created the website Watracing.org. It housed a live chat where br/o/s could talk to each other and hang out. It offered a very basic project section amongst other things that were never fully developed. The site also offered WAT racing development T-shirts in a limited run, FC3sfag might still have some shirts left, you can find him on /o/ or 4book. There are talks about more being produced along with a limited run of WAT racing vinyl decals. 

IRC/VENTfags had an extreme dislike for this and a pseudo-war erupted into a giant dick waving contest which nobody really cared about in the first place.
