More from the wonderful world of comic feeds.
My first F_W post. w00t. So be gentle. Or something. Yeah.

Aaah, comic feeds. When you get right down to it, they're almost Old Faithful in their ability to generate wank and/or stupidity. In this case I seem to have sparked it all through no real fault of my own. Earlier tonight on ye old Calvin and Hobbes feed someone ([info]conuly) asked to use my dancing Calvin icon and I said sure and thought nothing of it. Later in the evening I check the comments on the Foxtrot feed and see that [info]conuly has commented there as well. I post a joking little thing about not expecting to see the icon again so soon. All in good fun and all that.

And there the wank/stupidity begins. [info]patty_duke who is giving off "troll" vibes from his/her initial comment already decides to stir things up a bit more. Watch as he calls me a furry and puts words in my mouth to the effect that I was accusing them of stealing the icon. Someone who subsequently deletes their post responds to this and we're off to the races. [info]patty_duke whips out the "I wasn't talking to you" defense in response to the deleted post. [info]theseloadedlips tells [info]patty_duke to chill out which goes over as well as can be expected with [info]patty_duke going into "WTF?" territory with their insults, which reasonably gets an eye-roll in response. Obviously being defeated in this deadly battle of wits, [info]patty_duke calls in the hefty reinforcements in the way of his equally dim friend [info]chr15 who wins "Stupid Comment of the Thread" award with this classic "i have no control over my intelligence, even less than your control over your name. you sir are just plain rude.". Alas [info]theseloadedlips is sucked into feeding the wank even more, though at least he has a somewhat more amusing way of entertaining even while feeling the trolls/morons.

The wank is small now, but it has a bit of potential.

Beat me to it.

My favourite part, besides the insanely stupid and pointless "eddie" thing, is chr15's little "ps - u suk" (with a rather appropriate icon for the wankery, no less).

Oh yeah. That was one of the things that made me want to post it. Any arguement that degenerates into "u suk" is almost betting to show up here.

What's wrong with the idiot who thinks this is all happening on Usenet? Or is he just one of those clueless types who thinks everything on the Internet is Usenet?

He must be a bit like those idiots who think everything on the internet is AOL. ::snerk!::

It's baffling isn't it? It comes rather out of left-field too.

Your account of the wank is funnier than the wank itself.

It really considered it, but although I was the impetous for starting it, I don't feel that I was really either involved or to blame. If it hadn't been me, this wanker would have found something else to start shit about I'm sure.

It's really a shame that these feeds can't really be moderated like a community. This guy is pretty obviously hanging around them just to start shit and that pretty much fits the defination of "troll" to me. Even if he's a pathetic troll, the amusement of watching him struggle vainly to argue his way out of a wet bag gets thin pretty quick.

even if feeds were moderated, there might be some idiot moderator who believes patty_duke is right.

though, i do like my last comment. "oh, i'm sorry. waenweth and i ate the three goats. sorry that you're hungry"
