Into the Trash It Goes

This article needs moar trash. You can help by adding moar trash.

Into The Trash It Goes! is a phrase that was popularized on 4chan's /pol/ board in early 2013. A picture of Penn Jillette is often included with responses that use the phrase which it used to imply someone doesn't know what they are talking about.

Penn and Teller

Moar info: Penn and Teller.

Penn Jillette and Raymond Teller are professional illusionists, that's another way of saying they're homosexuals. The two have been performing since the late 1970's, are on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and behave like most celebrities, thinking that people care about their opinions. While both promote atheism and libertarianism, Penn Jillette is particularly militant about doing so.

Possibly it's because he had a controlling Christian father, or that he got his butt kicked on the playground for having a gay-sounding last name. Either way, he never got over it. His hatred of a non-existent God is evident when he speaks or writes "there is no God" onto autographs he signs. In these cases, "into the trash it goes!" applies to the illusionist.

	“	I believe that there is no God. I'm beyond atheism. Atheism is not believing in God. Not believing in God is easy — you can't prove a negative, so there's no work to do.	„
	—Penn Jillette, into the trash it goes.

Usage

Once the phrase established itself throughout 4chan, it use began to catch on elsewhere on the internet. Those who wish to see the phrase in action are encouraged to start a thread on /v/ and praise Microsoft's Xbox, be sure to argue with anyone who disagrees. Elsewhere the phrase can be spotted in the wild, possibly a forum where everyone isn't ignorant. If somebody there responds with "Into the trash it goes!" and a picture of Penn Jillette, you might wish to ask if you know whats you're talking about, and if everyone is doing this, it's time to lurk more or GTFO.

	Let's try to have a decent 360 thread. This gen is over, so how has it been the past years? I'm completely expecting a bunch of hate, but personally I love my 360.
