Tahrey: Who's the guy in the hat?

ThatGuyWithAKhajiitWaifu:

Valkaiser: @Tahrey: Looks like /co/nrad

Kazerad: @Tahrey: 4chan anthropomorphizes their boards; I think it's a carryover from the Japanese Internet, where everything from software to philosophical concepts gets drawn as a teenage girl at least once. The guy in the hat is meant to represent their comic board.

Tahrey: Huh, that's a new one on me. I've seen anthropomorphisations of the 4chan/7chan/etc sites as a whole, but not individual boards.

Some of them must be quite freaky given the range of boards on offer...

(it's been a while since I lurked around any of those places, too much timesinkery)
