Blockbuster (more liek blackbuster amirite?) is a video rental chain with stores located around the United States. Almost nobody goes to Blockbuster anymore, save a few old ladies who can't use Bittorrent.

The Meme

Although few details remain of the incident, ED is able to report on some of the history of this dramatic incident. In 2007, a child rented Hey Arnold! The Movie on DVD from his local Blockbuster chain, while with his mother. He however received a pornographic video, resulting in much lulz. Once /b/ got hold of this information, calls to Blockbuster over VoIP networks tripled for a short time, until the meme was considered old.

Trolling

  1. Locate a Blockbuster phone number from your local phonebook, or from your local /b/ thread Google.
  2. Call Blockbuster.
  3. Ask for Hey Arnold: the Movie.
  4. Listen to them flounder for an answer, get bothered, hang up.
  5. Post logs.
  6. Repeat.
  • Or if you're a normal person that realizes that Arnold: The Movie isn't funny at all, inform them that you had rented the movie Iron Man for you 6 and 7 year old boys, and when you got home they were watching some homosexual pornography known as "Iron Cocks of Chaos III", this is far more hilarious.
