hunter2 was one of the top handful of highest-rated quote on bash.org, a site for voting what the funniest* IRC quote was, which was a big part of early 2000s internet culture.

bash.org is down, and they didn't show "added by" dates anyway, but here's a wayback snapshot of the hunter2 quote from June 4, 2004. So yeah, hunter2 fully predates reddit. (Going by my memory, that quote was totally there in 2002, too.)

* This is early 2000s internet culture so "funny" is 90% pointless cruelty and misogyny.
