The Jamal Crisis

At the time of Genesis, and the rise of the Primordial Gods, there was Jamal.

Jamal was the first spammer in the Funny Pics community. His very first comment was, "I'm at the store," and for every picture after that, his only comment would ever be, "I'm at the store." "'[He] Never replied or said anything else to anyone I dont think, even when the comments got heated for no reason.'""~ A Flying Panda"In his time, Jamal was hated by every single member of the community for spamming the same nonsensical phrase "I'm at the store". The community was in its infant stages and a paid subscription was needed in order to comment at this point in time. This resulted in very few people posting comments, meaning that Jamal's comments were easily seen by everyone present. Eventually, an unknown user submitted a pie-graph meme titled "What Jamal does with his time" with options including basic necessities like sleeping, eating, and going to school, but the entire graph was filled with "going to the store". This was the first community based pic and showed everyone that this was not just a platform but an actual community with interactions. The pic was well received along with everyone congratulating Jamal on his very own internet picture, but his only reply was "I'm at the store". Finally, Jamal was banned for spamming and soon after the memes came. Jamal became a sort of folk hero for members. And, with this rise, soon came the counterfeiter. Fake Jamal tried to take the fame of Real Jamal, but was soon debunked by user I Shjt You Not.

Today, Jamal is an inside joke to the Funny Pics community, even having his own tag. Almost every member knows the story of Jamal; he will continue to be one of the most misunderstood memers of the past. Just like Van Gogh, Jamal painted meme art, and only after his death was he considered one of the best.
