The Fred Durst Society Of The Humanities And Arts (Part One) (with Adam Bumas)

I'M FROM THE INTERNET

We're almost a decade out from Boaty McBoatface, but there used to be a time when online polls getting brigaded was still novel. In 2011, a city of over 800,000 people let the internet vote on what to name their sanitation department. The Something Awful forums decided the funniest outcome would be to memorialize the 1999 chart-topping nu metal icon Fred Durst.

This week by are joined by Adam Bumas, internet expert and Head of Research at Garbage Day.
