The attack of the poopyheads!
I know that most everyone who likes to keep up with the tinhats watches

dl_anon, but I figure a good flame war knows no fandom boundaries. Here goes!

In a dl_anon post, our fearless leader Eso chastises piccalo for throwing yet another pity party in her LJ. Sadly, the pity party is now friends locked. But never fear! Piccalo's friends arrive in time to keep the party alive and devastate the dl_anon'ers with their impressive arsenal of insults.

It's best to warm up before a fight, so they start off easy, calling us nasty assholes. Well you can't go wrong with a classic. Next we're bunch of scum. Whoah... that one's going to leave a mark!

Then, taking a lesson from the animal kingdom, they decide to concentrate their predatory efforts on just one member of our herd. They choose Gabby, who apparently is the most disgustingly arrogant speciment that anon has come across in fandom, and [gasp] thinks that she's it. Poor Gabby! ::weeps::

When Veruchi gets in the way, she gets tagged with the dreaded dipshit moniker. Don't worry hon, if you try harder you might earn a really cool insult like Gabby Hopeless.

Later, we find that we really do deserve getting flamed by the anons, because when we call the tinhats on their freakish behavior we hurt people, and that's just sad. It's a good thing we have our comedic genius to help cheer our otherwise worthless lives.

	Don't forget me! I'm "one spiteful bitch," "brainless and lacking in a sense of humour," and "malicious and lacking in basic decency." I must say, I'm deeply offended. I have a great sense of humor. But if I also get to be DL_anon's fearless leader, I suppose all is right with the world... (Reply to this)(Thread)

I love LOTR fandom so very much. Even though I'm not actually involved in it, even. Tinhat Wank is Teh Funny.

I have at one person on my friends list, with whom I used to be quite close , who consistently goes over and posts her support to MsA, Piccalo, etc. I'm guessing that she feels sorry for them, as she's not a tinhat herself (or wasn't the last time I looked, anyway.) Poor things, they're so very misunderstood, pitiful and vulnerable...much like unscupulous used car salesmen.

	Just look for the anons. They're mainly piccalo's friends, who are there to defend her honor. I wouldn't know where to start explaining it beyond that... sigh. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	I read that whole bloody thing and I'm still lost. I have, however, come to several conclusions: 1) The whole Domlijah phenomenon generates enough wank to run New York, LA, DC, and a Soho bakery for about 6,000 years, 2) This piccalo person must be truly annoying, 3) The whole scene is frightening beyond my wildest dreams. goes to find a thumb to suck (Reply to this)

	My Eru this is wanky. Thus, I adore it. And comedic genius, who knew I had it in me? Personally I blame piccalo. When she rejected my olive ~~spork~~ branch of peace something in me just clicked, I saw fandom peace was hopeless and I became the bitter (but comedic!) wench you see before you.
