The Spork was the online name of a popular contributor on Ratedesi Forums, while the ladies featured in the above GIF were also regulars to the South Asian gossip shop. I don’t know if this was because he got arrested, permabanned or something. #JusticeForSpork !!

A GIF avatar of a Nepalese girl named Diksha or ‘Dookie’ among her friends on erstwhile South Asian forum Ratedesi Forums. She was a keen photographer and here she is striking poses in silly selfies, fave camera in hand.

Holy JDs!!, it’s a userbar. A great choice for the forum user who likes to sip the harder stuff. Userbars were popular adornments for forum signatures in the 2000s.

Banned…permabanned…
This kitsch 90s GIF came from a forum called Ratedesi Forums, mainly aimed at South Asians (desis). If a person was banned, it meant they peed someone off and was banned for posting for a while. If permabanned, that meant they were chucked out of the forum for good.
A bit harsh to strike your little brother while he’s in hospital, don’t you think?
