Answer to Kataja
I am not a Misaki. I am no guru either. I am asking for answers, not for questions. Got plenty of that latter sort in storage already, believe me.
AnimeB is my primary source of knowledge on random Internet memes, especially 4chan memes. This is where I learn about their existence. Elsewhere is where I learn about their essence. But even I get lazy sometimes, OK? ******* Question number one: That bogey guy, you should know who I'm talking about, he is a minor meme on YouTube. Wålf-kun once brought his picture over here. What is the very origin of that creep being an Internet meme and people saying unfinished sentences? No, I am not going to utter his name, for this would become a very short thread then. Instead, I offer you a wonderful piece of fan art. See you around, and do not forget to answer to Kataja!

Thank you, friends.
 For good tries.If you read my post carefully, the question was: "What is the very origin of that creep being an Internet meme and people saying unfinished sentences?" Prof. Nekko provided information on who Ca-, um, y'know, is. Could have been a good start, but this time, I had already investigated that far. Wålf-kun gave a Wikichan link I had not found yet. The article discusses the essence of the meme, but not its history. Of course it could be a good guess that the Cand-, *COUGH*, the meme we are talking about was originally born on /b/ of 4chan. However, no one has directly stated that so far, let alone backed up such a claim with further evidence. Keep trying, AnimeBees! The best answers, and even the best attempts, will be rewarded with green rep.

I am actually not certain of the 4chan meme origin, but I guess /b/ would be a fair to assume
 This is also where you'll find Candleja- most of the time, although he's also seen in /co/...I'll look and post if I can find anything more on the origins... in the meanwhile - enjoy a nice youtube clip: YouTube - Freakazoid Episode 2 - Part 1 (as far as I know his first appearance, but this is pretty much all I've ever seen of Freakazoid, so i dunno)

Question number two: What are Sagubooru and Danbooru?
I did browse the Sagubooru forums a bit, but I would have to lurk more to get a good overall view. So please break it down for me if you can.

The answer is... WIN! Actually... Danbooru is dead. Sagubooru... is moved. (But if you know the hidden link, you have found treasure!) And if you browsed the forums... You missed the point. Here: http://v2.sagubooru.com/build_experimental Sagubooru (modeled then improved off it's predecessor Danbooru) is a Tag Based Image Collection. It is win... Basically... People post pictures (not really available right now, since it's still in work. But it's open to be searched and referenced.) and label them with Tags. (Keywords that give an overview of what the picture is. Like, series name, character name, "glasses", "animal girl", "flat chested", etc.) The bonus of this... is that it makes it easy to find just about ANYTHING for what ever preference you may be currently yearning for. (Also great for stock when doing PhotoShop Anime work.) The drawback (if you REALLY consider it a drawback... A NBBer like you should be happy...) is that it's H AND Non H... However, this new version of Sagu has allowed for filtering... "Safe", "Questionable", "Mature", and "Unrated". Sagu has been the best reference I've EVER found. Ish great love!  As for Candl-- Err... THAT guy... I remember Freakazoid... Great stuff indeed! That episode was great! However... I was unaware there was a Meme based off that... <__<

Is it only the poster who tags the pictures, or can viewers modify and correct the tagging? In other words, are the tags static or dynamic?

Thank you, Ryo-sama! Once they get Sagubooru going for real again, I'll be sure to check it out - if not earlier.
Any further info on the history of Danbooru and Sagubooru, the origin of their names or such is still welcome, just as well as more on the C-... Um. But I am moving on to... Question number three: I have ripped this top-level edutainment comic on relationship counseling off somebody's sig on AnimeB. Can you give me the original web source? I would like to see more strips by the same author.

Nah, I just went out googling after webcomics with a "Gerry" and was out of luck. Thx again, Ryo-sama.

You're welcome...
I AM an expert at answering questions, ya know... ^__^ * Ryo Misaki points to Ask a Misaki. =P Anyway, glad I can help. And, I think they just used a random name there... I don't think there's really any mainstay character names in that series. ...I googled Stick Figure Webcomics. =P

In my world, "xkcd" is the stick figure comic. I bet many would give the same credit to "Cyanide & Happiness".
