About

Spaghetti Stories are a type of bait-and-switch copypasta posted on 4chan to troll others under the pretext of recounting a socially awkward or humiliating situation in greentext. While the plot may vary from one to another, each story ends when spaghetti suddenly falls out of one’s pocket or fanny pack, similar to the twist in Fresh Prince of Bel-Air copypasta stories.

Origin

Although it remains unverified, the original copypasta has been attributed to 4chan, dating back to early 2009. The earliest known story ending with spaghetti falling out of one’s pocket was posted on the Body Building Forums [5]by uboodiff on September 13th, 2010. Titled "Most embarassing day," the original poster recounted a story about humiliating himself at the check-out line in a Halloween store. The thread received 33 responses the same day, with many users commenting on the absurdity of carrying around cooked spaghetti.

On the same day of the Body Building post, a similar thread titled "feels bad man"[10] was posted to the League of Legends message board, which combined the elements of spaghetti stories with another well-known copypasta about Gamestop.

The earliest archived spaghetti greentext story on 4chan was posted to /r9k/ (ROBOT 9000) in a thread[12] discussing the weirdest ways people have injured themselves on September 29th, 2010. The non-sequitur nature of the spaghetti led to its inclusion in similar stories on /b/ (random)[1] and /v/ (video games).[11] As of April 2012, there are thousands of results[18] for spaghetti stories on Chanarchive.

A compilation of spaghetti stories were posted to the viral content site BuzzFeed[2] on November 2nd, 2011. That month, several Reddit threads[6][7][8] also appeared using the trope. Spaghetti stories have also been used on Yahoo! Answers[13] and Answers Den[14], as a method of trolling.

Spaghetti-Tan

The main character of the manga It's Not My Fault That I'm Not Popular, Kuroki Tomoko, was given the nickname "Spaghetti-tan" in October 2011. Since Tomoko is known for being socially awkward[17], users on /v/ (video games)[4] gave her the name out of appreciation for her social ineptitude. However, users of 4chan's /a/ (anime and manga) board do not like the use of this nickname[15], and users from /v/ will come to /a/[16] calling Tomoko Spaghetti-tan to upset posters.

SO You EXPECTED SOME HOT GIRL? I-IT'S TOMOKO O-OH SORR
