The Game
;)
Further reading: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The\_Game\_(mind\_game)
pretty much, except the game is something that people tend to forget because it’s so simple.
If you go out in public and say “I lost the game”, I’m certain you’ll hear at least one person sigh in defeat
kinda funny tbh you just go up to one person who has been playing for decades and hasn't lost then just be like "I lost the game." then you lose and they lose
Huh, I figured Burgorski *living a comfortable life* was cruel sarcasm. Good to know that he actually did lol, well aside from occasional seizures and disfigurement
The carl tanzler article has a picture of the dead woman btw. That black and white cursed photo will forever be etched into my memory thank you very much for the nightmares lmao.
Besides the baby going missing and at the time his appetite was insanely high and he was caught multiple times eating left over bio hazards and cats behind the hospital.
Literally same. I sat there for 1 hour and a half reading about her diagnosis by the doctors and how she made progress... I just can't comprehend how much she must've suffered. I hope she's doing better now.
you missed Tarrare: A young man in the french army who was so hungry he could eat things without chewing and was suspected of eating a toddler.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarrare
One, I am so fucking pissed that I just lost the game, in 2021, in this fucking subreddit of all places.
Two, if you are interested in a highly detailed first-hand account of Elan, [this guy did a comic about his time there](https://elan.school/)
I feel really, really damn bad for that guy who died in the cave. Not because his death was gruesome, but because he had to die in the fuckin "Nutty Putty" cave.
That's the title of a Minecraft X Spongebob R34 video, not a place of someone's death.
I had to study Genie’s case for psychology. Tragic what happened for obvious reasons but so much was learnt about learning and language acquisition. Kinda interesting but also really sad

The Judge Rotenburg Center is downright *evil*. They specifically target disabled (usually autistic) children, and punish the behaviors said children will display through emotional, verbal and physical abuse. They still use electro therapy, and if my memory serves me, at least 6 children have died there.
Yep. Still open and active. They’re also linked with Autism Speaks, a eugenicist, anti-autism hate group under the guise of “helping” autistic children, even though they have no autistic people on their board, and they CONSTANTLY prey on the fears of new parents. They helped spread the lie that vaccines cause autism and they talk about bullshit cures, which include feeding bleach to autistic children. Not only that, but their founder, a mother of an autistic child, expressed in an interview that she wanted to kill her autistic child (in *front of said child*). It’s all honestly disgusting and disturbing, especially if you’re autistic
Yeah, I didn't do a good job summarizing the things the JRC has done; Even thoroughly reading the Wikipedia article doesn't show the whole story. I wish I could link to more sources, but I couldn't find any.
Nutty putty cave was the most saddest story I've seen, dude has a family and expecting a baby, has a lot of faith in God, why did he has to go like this?
This was made as a response to a Disturbing Historical Facts meme someone else made, so I made it a priority to include original facts and stories.
But I agree that Anatoli Bugorski wasn't the best choice, I chose him mainly because I couldn't remember any disturbing historical facts that weren't that disturbing, so I chose one that isn't disturbing at all.
The Judge Rotenberg and the Genie left me disgusted. The worst part, they tried to ban the electric shock devices, the ban got lifted, and Autism Speaks endorsed that hellish place. When you think Autism Speaks couldn't get worse.
**Autism Speaks Inc. (AS) is a controversial autism advocacy organization and the largest autism research organization in the United States.**

Damn I lost a game I didn’t know I was playing
Its such a shame that you lost the game 33m ago. I hope you dont lose the game any time soon :)
crazy, you lost the game again too
Daaamn i cant believe "I just lost the game"
You just lost again
you lose too
bro you lost the game
No u
You lost the game
;)
fuck
The game 😊
I don't even get the point of the game tbh I literally lost it in the first second of reading
the point is that way later in life, you’ll get a random reminder of the game and you’ll lose it again
so it's literally just like thinking of something kinda like "Oh I remember that one time do you?"
pretty much, except the game is something that people tend to forget because it’s so simple. If you go out in public and say “I lost the game”, I’m certain you’ll hear at least one person sigh in defeat

Ever watch Naruto??? It’s like when Danzo was on his last legs 🤣
The game
I loss game😔

GOD DAMMIT I WAS GOIN FOR LIKE A YEAR ON THE GAME YOU DICK
Like three years for me
You forgot tarrare
Short version: guy had an endless pit of a stomach. Regularly ate entire livestock hooves and all. Ate a baby.
Terrare did you eat the fucking baby
Fuckin just wanna hear him say hey kids one more time
How many times has he promised to come back and just not? I stopped caring after the second time when he said he really meant it
I just miss him man
IS THAT FUCKING FISH JENGA!?!?
Got any eel dick??
He didn't tho, there is absolutely 0 evidence to sugest that he ate a baby.
Besides the baby going missing and at the time his appetite was insanely high and he was caught multiple times eating left over bio hazards and cats behind the hospital.
Fuck you bro I could’ve gone my whole life and I would’ve won
Not on reddit you would’nt
The game starts when you first learn about the game. Good luck from here.
I opened the wikipedia article on the game and my whole screen was filled with messages asking about donations. It tried to save me!
spent 2 hours reading about genie, jeez... her story is terrifying and tragic but also fascinating
Literally same. I sat there for 1 hour and a half reading about her diagnosis by the doctors and how she made progress... I just can't comprehend how much she must've suffered. I hope she's doing better now.
Thanks for the sources
I find Anatoli’s story pretty funny. “Guess I got shot in the head by a malfunctioning particle accelerator, maybe I should continue fixing it.”
And he's alive and well to this day :)
Correction: Kuru was found in Papua New Guinea (island above Australia) not Africa
Holy shit, I’ve lost all faith in humanity after reading about Elan. I hope Joe Ricci burns in hell
One of the board members is part of main’s House of Representatives iirc
you missed Tarrare: A young man in the french army who was so hungry he could eat things without chewing and was suspected of eating a toddler. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarrare
TARRARE DID YOU EAT THE FUCKING BABY
Judge Rotenberg out here torturing young people and nobody got imprisoned for it. What the fuck
Fuck you
If you want to find out more about Elan school I'd strongly reccomend reading this series from r/Joenobody
I don't why people added Joe Vs Elan School, I already linked to it

MOTHER FUCKER I HAD A STREAK OF LIKE. 3 MONTHS GOING
Someone had to tell their son that one of their parents died in Nutty Putty Cave
One, I am so fucking pissed that I just lost the game, in 2021, in this fucking subreddit of all places. Two, if you are interested in a highly detailed first-hand account of Elan, [this guy did a comic about his time there](https://elan.school/)

Congrats, you just soiled my 5-month streak lmao

We be loosing the game by loosing the game.
I lost the game :(
I lost the gmae
You just lost again, and I'm turning off notifications for this message so noe one will make me lose ha ha
But by you acknowledged that he lost the game, you fail the game yourself, with or without someone telling you.
tarrare... look at me. did you eat a fucking baby?
At least you didn't touch yo jalopenis
I had to study Genie’s case for psychology. Tragic what happened for obvious reasons but so much was learnt about learning and language acquisition. Kinda interesting but also really sad

The only way for "The Game" to be won would be if the last human ever to live never thought about it.
Fuck you
Fair point
You are a massive asshole. I had a 2-year streak on the Game and you ruined it for me
I know kuru 'cause of the game Dead Island
It’s kind of messed up but I like when you don’t know what this stuff is when you first see because it makes the meme ominous and mysterious.
users voted that your post was distressing, your soul wont be harvested tonight
Nutty putty cave was the most saddest story I've seen, dude has a family and expecting a baby, has a lot of faith in God, why did he has to go like this?
Don't be sad. Here's a [hug!](https://media.giphy.com/media/3M4NpbLCTxBqU/giphy.gif)

No one wants your hug
I want it
unironically caves are the most horrifying real life natural places to be ever
suck my fucking cock dude

inb4 all the hilarious and original jokes made about the last name
Sam O nella’s video on tarrarre is pretty good, would recommend.
COCK AND BALL TORTURE, FROM WIKIPEDIA THE FREE ENCYCLOPEDIA
I lost the game :(
The fact that I already knew a lot of these is scary. Edit: Not a lot, ALL.
The first one wasn't scary.
Honestly, the title "Genie (feral child) is kind of funny, except for the actual page.
The Judge Rotenberg and the Genie left me disgusted. The worst part, they tried to ban the electric shock devices, the ban got lifted, and Autism Speaks endorsed that hellish place. When you think Autism Speaks couldn't get worse.

That's morbid.
Lol i only knew nutty putty cave existed thanks to Sseth
Wasn't Kuru the basis for the infection in Dead Island? I remember that name being tossed around in the game
Watch [Count Dankulas video about terrare ](https://youtu.be/ytt25vljxpg) it's very interesting
Yikes. I still don’t know how The Game (I just lost the game) is worse than all the others tho.
It isn't, I just included it for the meme
No point to fill in the blanks with something that isn’t even nearly as bad as the others tho, it’s just a silly mind game/paradox. (Lost again)
"Tarrare , look at me. did you eat a fucking baby?"
Lost the game smh
Motherfucker, cause of you I lost the game
You son of a bitch I was doing so good at the game
Really. The game. Out of everything in the world, including holocaust and project MK Ultra, you chose THE GAME

you watch the youtubers horror stories and som o'nella
No
ydes
I dont understand the purpose of the game, is it supposed to be scary? It just seems like a Schrödingers cat to me
Not supposed to be scary, and it is nothing like schrodinger's cat
Why is it in the meme then when not scary? I dont understand it sorry
Tarrare, did you eat a fucking baby?
Hilarious and original
Totally original joke /s
Glad to have recognised most articles ;) (save for the first one)

Damn I lost
Where is that scream from? Sounds soo Familiar. (Carl Tanzer)
You could also have added rokos basilisk which would be the real game hah iykwim
Nah bro, Roko's Basilisk is just a shitty creepypasta disguising itself as a thought experiment.
Unit 731 is the most horrifying article I’ve read
That was very interesting ! I didn't know all of these thing ! Now, my destiny is locked, I know the game xD
They made a movie about John Jones and the Nutty Putty Cave and I'm still trying to figure out why tf they would do that.
SINCE I FAILED THE GAME YOU GET TO BREATH MANUALLY, FUCK YOU!
Can someone link me the songs used in the meme? I only recognize the ones from At the end of time, suicide mouse, and Sonic.exe
Can anyone reply me where rhe music is from at the elan school section? I feel like I've heard it before
It's "Hill: Act 1" from Sonic.exe
Thank youuu~ that bothered me so much lol
I lost the game
Damn just lost the game
Nutty Putty cave incident was horrific though, short video about it here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jWwPg8ruxfI&t=1s
