Why does wank just find me?

Oh god, he who must be named. I feel unclean just seeing his username in my inbox. EDIT: crypto-Puritan anal retentive shithead pushing a Fascist agenda under the guise of 'morality'. LOL ( Read more... )

Okay, having read the wankery, I cast my lot with you on this one LULZ! I MATTER! LULZ!

Ahem. But seriously. From what I get about the community, pictures are posted and, like any art, people comment and give their responses to it (as is their right and all).

eril, of course, had a right to ask why you thought it was creepy (and if he had done it in a slightly less dickish way, it might have started an interesting discussion/dialog, rather than a wank debate) but totally blew his "I'm interested in your point of view and why you see it so different than I do" with his follow up to your response.

I'm not sure why all the cuntiness is directed at you. I mean, cool, people are going to disagree but clearly some people can disagree and can post a reasonable debate (as they have after yours; not sure why THOSE people weren't attacked).

As far as the picture is concerned (and I know that's not really what this is about, it's about someone's reaction to the picture and how that reaction is turned into wank by fucktard trolls received), my ( ... )

Forgive me, but im not too sure what you mean here? My caplocking blather right there was a reaction to the sheer batshit of accusing me of being a pedo, (one by a known and batshit troll but thats neither here nor there)

I think maybe because Ive been a vocal member of a few snark communities of late, yknow, butthurt is butthurt, no matter how cool they play it.

It was my reaction to that photo.Its what I see the implication of it may be. Ive been over my reasons, the lack of context, setting etc etc. I was all up for a debate but the seriously hysterical and substandard replies I received pretty much sucked all motivation to discuss them in a reasoned manner.

And lol, yes my rambling comment is rambling. The picture still makes me nauseous.

No worries, I was laughing at the idea of my two cents on the situation mattering to anyone. ;^) I actually stole that line (and technique) from warriorpoet who pulls it off better than I do, apparently.

And dude, how exactly is finding a picture of a naked kid (with a concerning expression and so forth) make YOU the pedophile? Such is the logic of trolls.

It's sad that the trolls flew off the handle, since what could've been an interesting debate (nudity in art is always ripe for good and healthy debate) quickly soured into "OMG, pedo! Puritan! Pronz!" nonsense. Bah, the internetz can be a gross place.

I've been avoiding wank communities like the plague. :^( I stumbled into tds_tcr_snark or whatever the fuck it's called and... ew. I needed a shower. I recommend not venturing in. Dude, why don't people keep their personal annoyances with authors/stories/comm behavior to rants in their own journals instead of devoting a whole freakin' comm about it? < /OT ( ... )

Oh yes, some of those snark ones are rife with self righteous cesspools. Arrgh. I always find fandom wank equal parts funny/batshit/amusing as hell though- but then I am a horrible person who enjoys laughing at others.

I find sf_drama pretty much even handed, there's almost always someone willing to intelligently lay our reasoning, and the trolls easily scared off. YMMV though. :D

Trollish reasoning makes me laugh now. Im right! Your wrong! What do you mean you want me to back up what i say! ouwdhfgpwhgpwjgw pedo oqawnbfipefni

*rolls eyes*

But thank you for your words and your two cents, Especially after last night I was begining to think there was no level heads out here in LJ.
