    It either originated on Reddit or those 'Rage' comics, I say comics but the majority of them aren't the least bit funny.

    You clearly have not been to certain sections of 4Chan then!

    It's not unique to here, but even if it was, some places/forums/groups/communities/whatever have their own jargon.

    I haven't. The best 4chan-isms seem to spread far and wide though!

    do a search on wikipedia for fapping and see where it redirects you.

    It's really just general internet lingo and if you've never seen it outside boards consider yourself lucky and in possession of a decent life

    This reminds me of a thread on another irish forum where someone responded with "I'm a serious internet user".

    Its about 300 pages into a thread about meeting people. This guy who has a few issues comes in and basically starts on everyone. It turns ugly. You really don't want to see it. I do believe he had a few issues on boards.ie and turned up looking for similar folk but sadly it never materialised for the poor chap.
