Rule 34 ?

[linguaholic]

Have you ever heard about rule 34? If you haven't, then here is what it is:

The meaning of rule 34

" It is an i internet rule that states that pornography or sexually related material exists for any conceivable subject. "

That's some pretty weird stuff, right? I guess this is supposed to be funny or something. On Urban Dictionary you can find some examples about the use of rule 34 in written language:

Examples of rule 34 in written language 

I saw a rule 34 of Scooby Doo - Correct. 
I saw a rule 34 of Micky Mouse and Optimus Prime - Wrong. 
(Please note, since I have suggested the second example, it is now being worked on by Insane Japanese Hentai Animation Artists)

Hmm...that's pretty WEIRD! The guy on the video clip you've attached sounds creepy too, LOL Almost like he's trying to subliminally brainwash people hehe Clearly, whoever came up with that theory must have a one track mind. I'm not even sure where the rationale has come from. But hey, if he believes it, then he'll find a justification for it. It'd be interesting to see what other members here think. Maybe I'm just not able to get my head around it

I've never heard of this, honestly, and I am pretty much an Internet junkey. Are you sure it's a widely used concept? Because, otherwise, there is a big chance I would of heard of it.

Never heard of this, but it seems interesting. I'm not surprised that the internet came up with a term like this, lol. So is 'rule 34' supposed to be used as a noun?

Haha, Lingua discovered the interwebs as of late. xD

I knew that it existed probably for every conceivable subject (possibly), but I didn't know it was called a rule 34 or that it could actually be used in a phrase. Also, I am not sure if I would use it in a conversation because I can't think of a situation where I would want to use it, unless I am talking to my teenaged cousin, in which case, I would lecture him about a few things in life if he used "rule 34" in his sentences  It would be a catch 22 situation for me considering I would be proud of him "expanding" his vocab while at the same time I would be worried about "how" he's expanding that vocab.

I didn't realize that it was actually called Rule 34, though I've heard the rule.  If you've ever been on Tumblr or really any site that revolves around image sharing.  I've looked up even innocent things like Pokemon or images from kid shows and found dirty pictures.

This is the first time I have heard of it. Sounds weird. However, after some thinking, I believe it's a valid rule. Anything and everything on the Web has a porn equivalent. Nothing is sacred to the creators of porn. I think all the nursery rhymes have already been done. All the classic stories, too. Celebrities, without a doubt. Every religion as well.

Now, what's wrong with that?

I think it just proves that sex is a very primal force. I suppose it has to be. I mean, without sex, there would be no human beings, right?
