How To Lose Friends And Alienate Twits
from a mousey on wank_report:
OK, so there was an SPN convention in LA this weekend. During the Q&A session with Jesen Ackles and Jared Padalecki, Ackles made a joke about sleeping with a cast member. Padalecki clarified that Ackles mean himself. Silly boys, you should know better than to throw that sort of fanservice to your tinhats. Anyway, SPN boards and LJ has been abuzz about Ackles' "confession" ever since.
Enter poor Jim Beaver (Bobby on the show). He made the following tweet on his Twitter page:
Happy Valentine's Day. Prepped 4 it Sunday by seeing Jensen & Daneel being all kissy-face in the convention green room. Love is fun to watch
Awww, nice and sweet right? If you think so, you don't know SPN tinhats. That innocent tweet prompted the following exchange between Jim and someone who calls themselves "J2_Justdoit" (the following exchange was copied and pasted for the sake of expediency, but the exchange can be followed at @jumblejim and @J2_Justdoit if you're so inclined):
just do it
nice try covering for J2 being together! We all know that Jensen & Jared are making valentine's love to each other ;)
Jim
Maybe it's just in fun, but don't post that nonsense on my page.
Justdoit
oh wow, easy there big guy! Sorry for disturbing. You won't read from me again :)
just so you know, I was having the worse v-day ever & your reply made it 10 times worst! Thanks.
[At this point, people started @reply spamming the fuck out of Justdoit, calling her names and delusional etc]
thanks, Jim! Your fans are spamming me with shit right now :) you're truly awesome!
Jim
Maybe you were joking & and I couldn't tell. But I'm very protective of my friends & I hear too much trash talk--don't like it.
Justdoit
but I WASN'T trash-talking about me! Jensen & Jared are my life! I'd never talk shit about them. Overall, you hurt me!
[not to Jim] So some of you thinks it's fine that he tweeted me that cuz he's trying to cover for J2? FUCK YOU! That tweet hurt! I was a huge fan of him!
jumblejim was being a jerk to me! I'd assume that you read his reply?!
Jim
I did not put you down nor invite others to. I just stood up for my friends. If you were joking, fine.
But there's funny jokes & then not so funny ones. I've made plenty of the latter, but always try to own up to it.
Justdoit
why couldn't you ignore it, then? You knew that other fans would spam me with shit, which is what they are doing right now!
Jim
Sorry if I got your panties in a twist. I certainly don't want people trashing you. I don't like people trashing ANYBODY.
Justdoit
they're calling me names & saying I'm disrespectful & full of shit! Would YOU like it if your page was filled with that? No.
Jim
I should've ignored it. But I've been overwhelmed lately w/really nasty talk from "fans" & I resent it. Thought this was more.
Justdoit
I really wish your words would make people stop tweeting me hate tweets & other loads of shit. But it's not. Have a happy v-day!
Jim
I always make clear I DON'T want fans trashing someone I have a disagreememt with. Anyone doing that is upsetting me.
[To everyone]Twitter's amazing. You can make people miserable w/a moment's passing thought. Seems I'm good at it. Sorry, everyone. I know better.
Justdoit
would you PLEASE tell your fans to STOP sending me hate tweets? PLEASE! I'm begging you here!
Jim
Stop sending anything unpleasant to @J2_JustDoIt. Please. OK? That's to EVERYBODY. Thanks, twidjits!
Justdoit
It's the end of the day & I STILL wanna kill someone!!!! Would somebody please brings Danneel in front of me so I can kill her?!!!!! >:O
So fun exchange, right? Yeah, we need another poster or two:
Update to the above post: someone named @torcje gets in on the fun with the following tweets to @jumblejim:
@jumblejim didn't spn lost enough viewers already? how many others do you want to lose? you should be ashamed for what you did to that girl.
@jumblejim if those two other idiots working with you were not gay, you would not freak out so much. you're all just a bunch of losers.
@jumblejim you're mad for a post about two men making love? are you for real? so you're a homophobic old idiot. good to know.
@jumblejim I found the post from the girl that made the j2 joke. that got you so upset that you decided to destroy her valentine day?
@jumblejim what's the point in having followers on twitter? you're old, and you're twittering all mad for a gay joke. you're pathetic.
@jumblejim you suck so much. at your age you're writing on twitter fake idiotic ship fanfics for cw fangirls. grow up.
Jim's replies:
@torcje Asking her not to post false rumors on my Twitter page? I guess I'm missing the shameful part. I asked people NOT to slam her.
@torcje Sorry, I just saw your previous posts here. I didn't realize you were a provocateur. Good bye. You're gone.
No word on when Misha Collins is making an appearance, but I believe it will be on a winged centaur, to the tune of Erasure and Copa Cabana.
