This wank based on true events. [now with baleetion]

I read the strangest rant today. How strange you say? So strange no one can agree just whether it's even a rant at all!

OP replies to requests to clarify, a few times, while a brave idealist attempts first contact, before realizing only a sucker would try to breach such impenetrable walls of WTF.

A random potshot at someone's fic-writing skills prompts the best simile ever.

The more persistent commenters dig through the layers of Bizarro-talk until they uncover the truth: OP is... 'anti-criticism'?

PASSIVE-AGGRESSIVE SMILEYS.

And shattered idealism is shattered.

ETA: aslongasitlasts has studied the people of FFR. He's like a magic 8-ball, in a way.

And [info]wank_report has some too.

ETA2: Modly intervention. But he wants to be banned. No, really.

ETA s'more: Post got blanked and F-locked. Comm membership is open, though.

The ETA Apocalypse Now: Comments are being baleeted at random, and the original post is replaced by the preface to The Picture of Dorian Gray. It's the final troll blowout, people.

ETA Captain Obvious:: Oh, so that's what started it. Taunting the mod, and then deleting comments (A no-no in ffr^2). He's banned now, but you wouldn't know because the mod comment that said that is... deleted!

ETA Cry For Justice: There are 409 Google caches of the wank still with pre-baleetion comments. Saving the ones I can before they update.

That "rant" and the ranter's replies are... really confusing.

Oh yeah, I saw this. I ignored OP because of her lack of making sense. It appears she didn't make sense to a lot of people.

"i don't really differnate betweeen putting yourself out there, and putting yourself out there, again. I think people believe they do things differently when they're not, it's all the same."

I've been trying to understand that sentence for like ten minutes, and I don't think the fact that it's 8 AM and I haven't slept is helping at all.

For some reason, this convoluted rant kinda reminds me of one person who admitted - in less confusing terms - he was sexually perverse and harbored really violent thoughts, said his character was a self-insert, and was very angry and confused that no one wanted to RP with him.

I wonder why.

Not to get too srs bzns on your asses, but I can't help but wonder if he's Schizophrenic - only because I have Schizophrenia, so I can usually sort out that particular brand of word salad with relative ease, which is also the case here. I didn't really have any problem working out what he was saying, and the confusion quite baffled me.

As you were, mockers, as you were. *hangs head*

ffrantsrants is a place for rants on fanficrants, not a place for rants about rants. You're not ranting about a rant or a group of rants on fanficrants

The icon says it all, really.

I understood that, I think. The person was suggesting that fanficrants was interrogating their texts from the wrong perspective. I.e., any perspective other than HOORAY YOU RULE TEH SNUGGLENETZ.

You know what this reminds me of? Grading essay questions written by my first-year English students in Japan. I laugh bitterly at the idea that I was supposed to "correct" the English of those essays. The problem with that assumption is that there is a platonic "correct" version of the sentence for me to correct it to. Sometimes you run across language that is just so garbled that there is no grammatical structure to be gleaned from it, and it takes nothing less than telepathy to determine what the writer meant to say (assuming they even knew themselves, and were not just throwing together all the words they knew in hopes of faking it.)
