12:11am: Triple MtS Wank
From a mousie on
wank_report:
Another one of those Mock the Stupid wanks which starts with someone exhibiting their own rather limited grasp of reality. Babygrrrrl1000 posts a twofer, neither of which really rise to the level of stupid: the death of the guy who played General Burkhaldter, and the name of Penn Gillette's baby girl. In the middle of predictable cause-of-death wank and stupid-name-wank (with a side trip into the inevitable "My mother went to school with Penn and she says he's a dick" and a little "what do you mean they made a sitcom about Nazis" that hasn't been picked on yet) an unexpected side wank into the Hitchhiker's Guide books breaks out.
One!Two!Three!
Current Mood: 
annoyed

10:24am: The city of Brotherly Love--just leave your fursuit at home.
This one's almost too easy.
Someone in
philadelphia posts that
"I (and several other members of this community) are planning to protest Antrhocon, a convention for furries. I would like to get some sign ideas and also see if anyone else is interested."It's fresh, it's still young, but I'd say it's ripe for a massive wank-off if it doesn't get deleted first.
5:08pm: Wank from the Horror Writers Association
Nick Mamatas, a well-reviewed midlist horror writer and rather prominent member of the HWA, has a blog at
nihilistic_kid. He has, let's say...
strong opinions about the writing business. Recently, he was nominated for the Stoker Awards' Best First Novel category, which he did not win, and, as a result in some way I don't quite understand because the relevant posts have since been edited or deleted, had a tiff with aspiring writer and fellow HWA member Paul Dracon (
biledragon). Some of the posts have been deleted from Paul's end, but:
Nick is BANNED!
Paul is MAD AS HELL, but also a creative genius. (Don't trip in the
(Deleted Post)s.)
Nick pours gasoline on the fire, because he likes it HOT. (NWS picture.)
Paul is SO OVER IT OMG. No, REALLY HE IS!
Current Mood: so very amused
6:11pm: First Wank! About a fandom you probably never heard of.
It's mostly old news but wankery nonetheless
Cultscomics (aka Jay) had decided to
have some trolling fun with the fans over at
The Femforce Message Board a very very minor comic book fandom. His trolling, which as he pointed out, amounted to
a couple skewed polls and a few snarky comments on their board. Which hardly amounted to anything compared to some places, seemed to irate the Femforcers to no end. In response to this, Paul Monsky, board mod and writer of their comics posted a massive rant in which he posted a large amount of personal information about him.(said post and replies have been deleted, but Jay
saved screencaps of that original post)
It sparked a bit of fun in the fandom, even got mentioned in the
rumor report of columnist Rich Johnston. (Down near the bottom)
Word of warning kiddies, middle age fans of mediocre comics appear to be experienced at cyberstalking :)
10:47pm: RPGamer Wank
The
topic starts off with your typical "Game companies aren't making enuff gamez omfg!11eleventy1." Then
everyone jumps in to tell the OP off. However a
newb decides to agree with the OP. There's wank at the newb, who then decides to show his "intelligence" by
picking a fight with the
admin.
Wank ensues, and it is quite tl;dr.
