4chan Down: Revenge Of The Soyjaks (E320)
Soyjaks! 4chan! Breeding kink! Katy Perry!
All that and a surprise update about skateboarder and television personality Bam Margera in this week's episode.
First up, Travis will tackle the recent devastating hack of 4chan, the infamous image board that gave us Pepe memes, QAnon family members, and maybe even a president. What is this “Soyjak Party” and why do they hate 4chan so much?
Then Julian will cover the recent Elon Musk breeding kink fanfic — if the Wall Street Journal were a “fan” and documented reporting were a “fic.”
Finally Jake will report on his investigation on worrying claims from conspiracists that the recent influencer-friendly flight of a Blue Origin rocket was entirely faked. We’ll also try to figure out which graphic designer is responsible for sneaking images of Baphomet into every spaceflight patch.

Top quality old school QAA episode, thanks boys!
didn't think I'd get waterboarded by travis with a 4chan wonderful world cover. great episode guys!
also fuck YES the return of pilled jake
Completely unrelated, but can we have a The Last Supper(1995) movie night? I remember seeing this in the theater with my girlfriend who didn't think it was as funny as I thought it was. The nineties were a simpler time.
From IMDB: "A group of idealistic, but frustrated, liberals succumb to the temptation of murdering rightwing pundits for their political beliefs."
I'm a millennial, but I'm proud to say that I've never soyfaced in a photo. I've always been too miserable and cynical to fein enthusiasm
oh no, we'd never think the UK would commit barbaric practices. In other news, we've effectively barred trans people from public life, and enshrined that in law.
Super minor, but my favourite moment in the video was when the guy was baking the Blue Origin numerology and said "2 Black women and 4 white women, 4+2=6". My dude, there are 6 women! Already! Why do you have to split them up by their skin colour and then add them up to get to 6?!
I thought the Alan Taurig joke was funny and it only made sense as funny if you knew he was gay. Also, he didn’t just start modern computing, he is the reason we won the Second World War bc we could track the uboats, which were sinking our ships and stuff. Anyway you guys are all way too sensitive and I don’t believe in apologies for things.
I filed a class action in The Hague on behalf of everyone in this chat against Travis for that clip.
So the 4chan version of FYAD killed it. Neat.
So glad to hear Julian back at full force. Bless!
Me yelling at my phone: YOU CAN'T DESIGN A CAPSULE THAT PEOPLE CAN'T GET OUT OF, IDIOTS! WHAT IF THERE WAS A FIRE?! THEY HAVE TO BE ABLE TO OPEN IT FROM THE INSIDE!!!
Why did I have to listen to that Travis. You know what I mean.
julian fields
The soyjack version of What a Wonderful World makes me more sad than the Joey Ramone version
(You's) in parantheses refers to posting on 4chan and someone quoting your post, it will show a post number and then (you), so like >>4934034993(you) It's like farming karma or Quote tweets but for 4chan
convince me that the “a wonderful world” cover isn’t julian
Regarding Thomas Jefferson - the most famous “affair” he had was when he raped Sally Hemmings, his slave. 100% when she refers to his “affair partners” she’s talking about her, because she’s the one people know. Which makes her word choice disgusting.
“they are baking and they are loving the bread” lol
Jeff Penis
megyn kelly calling who i can only imagine was sally hemmings, a woman enslaved by thomas jefferson, his "affair partner" gave my brain damage
the guy baking the blue origin shit with silver mt. zion’s “13 angels standing guard round your bed” playing in the background is unbelievably ironic considering who the band is.
Baron Harkonnen is gay.
@Julian cheers the apology/ correction re Alan Turing, it was an innocent mistake but it’s certainly appreciated. ❤️
“Unfortunately, from my own pilledness” Jake LOL
All i think of when i think of the UK are barbaric practices
I listened for 24 min in hopes of Jake doing a Ron Watkins impression. I pray it isn’t the last.
And Travis View
I hate that I genuinely laughed at What A Wonderful Board
Katy Perry re-entering the stratosphere: "...I see frogs of green"
SONIC MENTIONED RAHHHH
Jake saying we don’t generally think of the UK as evil is hilarious. Yes we do, Jake.
Dang classic QAA episode very nice
When someone replies to you on 4chan, it'll display your post number like: >xxxxxxxxx >xxxxxxxxx (You) >xxxxxxxxx To distinguish which one is you. (You)s are just replies
If we can get to a point where we say "Bam-face" instead of soy-face, I will know the world has healed
I read the WSJ Elon polygamy article this morning…1) what a terrible day to have eyes 2) St Clair isn’t a sympathetic figure no matter how many sweet maternity pics she provided for the article. “Some of you bitches are very dumb!!!”
tbh I find his entire "harem" to be sympathetic - on at least one level - by default. the power imbalance is literally inconceivable.
Have found myself experiencing bezos-sympathetic views lately as well. If we have to swear to one of them at least with bezos we get toys delivered to our door
He understands the American political economy (treats)
"my name is nightfall..." Are the words I expect to hear just before the speaker dons an embarrassingly cheap superhero mask/goggles and exits dramatically through the nearest window
So today I learned that Julian pronounces both Biopic and Harkonnen just like I do, I knew I loved that guy ☺️
Great episode, but it will never stop killing me how Julian constantly goes to "FEDS!!" with zero evidence. That's BlueAnon shit. Anywho, thanks Travis for your diligent research as always!
It's literally one of the most common and effective tactics authorities like the FBI have used, it ain't a secret or even mildly conspiratorial, they regularly and proudly describe these processes in court for prosecution, then reported on regularly and included in many non fiction retellings/adaptations of cases too, what are you even talking about lol? Do you not true crime?
The reason they can land on land is because this thing is essentially a glorified plane, not a space shuttle. If it was a space shuttle they wouldn't have had to soend minutes up there, they could have stayed for weeks.... and reentry wouldn't be simple like this flight....hence the astronauts that were stick up there for months.... these thibgs aren't the same. Gah, i wish they'd gotten stuck, but it's basically a boomerang slingshot. Also Liv Agar.
I got a chance to skate with Bam back in the day before the Jackass days…..he was like 14. Total shredder.
My younger half-brother's middle name is Octavius because he was dad's 8th child. So I can tell you on good authority that it's generally due to the father being an egotistical narcissist. Albeit a lovely one in dad's case, but still...😆
Thanks for the laughs.
dae swear they heard Jake say "Jeff Penis" at 43:20 or am I insane
I heard that as well.
Good to hear the QAA hosts are still using Gab 👍
it's extraordinarily easy to read your display name in AEJ's voice
Always feel better about myself after hearing about chan and chan-adjacent places and people
I think Extra Terrestrial is my favorite Katy Perry song, actually. Just a song about straight up wanting to fuck an alien with comple disregard for your own safety. I think that's kinda fun. One for the monsterfuckers.
Back when Kanye West was good ;(
I guess vaginal birth can limit HEAD SIZE and probably as a consequence brain size but like... it sounds like he thinks vaginal birth MAKES the brain smaller??? Ceasarian allows for bigger head babies in the sense that if it ALREADY has a big head and gets stuck it doesn't die and as ceasarian is more and more available it's probably saved lots of babies with big ol noggins as well as their mother which allows more big head babies to be born and might DOWN THE ROAD make people's heads bigger but it's not gonns affect the brain size of THIS baby. It either has a big head or it doesn't.
I was born via caesarian, though not 'cause of anything to do with the size of my head - my younger brother was a VBAC and is the boofheadedest sibling by far. but I dunno, interesting subversion of the "hotdog down a hallway" myth I guess?!
Did Megan Kelly just call Thomas Jefferson’s slaves “affair partners”???? 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢
🤮
It is probably a reference to the (you) that appears next to your tripcode when you reply to yourself on 4chan lmao
i hate that I know this but /lgbt/ and /mu/ were influential for me 🥺
Also it’s crazy hearing Sliver of Mount Zion in a TikTok is that a thing now lol
13 Angels used to fill me with such a deep heaviness and would remind me of a fever dream i had during an intense food poison. Now it just annoys me :/
Liv agar
Jakey, you’ve fallen into the Felix trap; it’s not SHEE von. It’s shuh VOHN 😞
it's SEE-oh-BAN, duh
Wrong Julian, I learned about Alan Turing through the excellent biography, Alan Turing: The Enigma by Andrew Hodges.
Julian Feeld
YES... HA HA HA... YES!
Wait there's an Alan Turing movie?!
With Benedict Cumberbach in the lead role.
The “knock you up” text made me want to crawl out of my skin. Like I literally physically recoiled
it's slightly less disarming if, like me, you (probably incorrectly) imagined that ASt.C was already pregnant in said selfie. then it's actually kind of funny for a second
Holy shit, Elon Musk thinking he is some kind of warrior is incredible.
The 2027 Artemis Moon Landings are going to get us to a level of cooked that's undescribed in any recipe book
I got a Nintendo Switch as a wedding present and I definitely soy faced over it
I still do it every time I boot up Stardew Valley on the toilet. WHOoOoOAGH
Wojack is a spinoff of the Feels Guy meme from like 2010, which I think was the origin. I was on the boards back then. Seems like a lifetime ago. Feels Guy to Wojack to NPC/Soyface.
I'm almost nostalgic for feels bad man at this point
The weirdest part is that Elon doesn't even seem to be banging these women. It's all IVF. If he were all about the sex then that'd be one thing but the overwhelming preference for in-vitro proves it's much weirder
God this sounds like an especially cursed episode. Can't wait
I may not be thrilled by the state of the world, but I'm always glad to see another episode of QAA... (permission to re-use granted... lol)
Annie Kelly FTW
"The story is very long and stupid..." Isn't that just the way of things today?
