what the hell is MOMO?
 
I know it is about some perverts trying to brainwash kids with youtube cartoons, but every article or FB post people insert that that big eyes creepy figure keeps giving me goosebump, so I couldn't read the full story what's that about.

Is it a hoax or what? My daughter likes to watch youtube on TV, so it brings my concern.

IF someone posts that creepy photo here, mod please close the thread. Thanks.

I dont know how kids can watch youtube nonstop everyday. I cant even find things to watch for more than 3 hrs a week.

Most of it is just junk-food for the mind, and makes them ADD. There is little educational value in the crap that my nephew watches. It keeps him occupied, but then he's wild when he's not watching tv.

These kids challenge are getting dumber are dumber: eating Tide pods, putting shit through your nose, killing yourself.

G0rilla 03-02-2019 12:09 PM

Is it wrong that I think its a good thing the dumb asses in the human race are wiping themselves out with these stupid challenges? I dont know about you guys, but I would never eat a tide pod just because someone challenged me to or "oooh the colors are so pretty".

It's a hoax. I feel like this is a social experiment that is going to be a feature some time in the future.

"How we duped the internet"

Berz out.

I dare one of you guys to contact momo and say that youll fuck her up!


SkinnyPupp 03-02-2019 06:17 PM

This thing is confusing.. Did anyone even hear of this thing before news stories started talking about it? :fulloffuck:

Badhobz 03-02-2019 07:08 PM

i gotta admit, this thing is pretty fucking scary. just looking at it gives me nightmares.

CCA-Dave 03-02-2019 07:11 PM

You guys know that it is all a stupid hoax right? Some news story picked up on a troll posting and it went viral via news media.

That face, "momo" is actually part of a japanese art installation from like the early 2000's.

edit: Just realized Berz beat me to it.

Probably fake.. I could get a friend to change their profile pic to momo and start having "conversations" :badpokerface:

LightKeeper 03-05-2019 09:03 AM

I heard about this about a year or two ago. Some girl in Argentina being a victim.

Don't know why it's trending again recently.

AzNightmare 03-05-2019 01:08 PM

Wait... Hold up..

So while the Blue Whale game got kids to actually suicide...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Whale_Challenge

MOMO is just about a game that tells kids to suicide, but turns out to be a hoax that fooled parents into believing their kids were in danger??

:fulloffuck: ?

The creator of that sculpture, out of guilt, had to tell kids the creature is dead to reassure them.
