First wank! Now, this might be slightly off-topic as it doesn't directly relate to a fandom (unless your fandom is, well, cats) but it is wank of the highest degree and I couldn't let it slip by unnoticed.
I'm a member of Kittypix over at LJ. This community is dedicated to posting pictures of your cats and making people squee over the cuteness. Sounds perfectly innocent, right?
The wank began when Raine posted a picture of one of her kids holding a cat. It can be argued that the main focus of this picture is, well, the kid.
People begin arguing about whether or not the post is off topic and should be deleted. Unfortunately most of the wankier comments were apparently deleted by the time I found the post, but quite a few choice morsels remain:
mistressxenobia:
it was obvious that this woman used her post to try to "show off" her children and that it had NOTHING to do with the poor kitty.
some of us come here to see pictures of CATS, not to listen to some mother go off about how cute her kids are. it is very annoying and totally off-topic...
Right. Since posting a picture which contains both human and feline is 'going off about how cute your kids are.'
i just got upset because i was not expecting to see something like that...
i mean, i don't come here posting pictures of my submissives tied up in a corner while my cat just happens to be watching - even if it IS infinitely amusing to me...
i have that much respect for the community members who might not understand my lifestyle...
i think those who don't care for children deserve the same courtesy of not seeing a photo where the kitty is NOT the main "star"...
charlie_em points out the obvious:
you got upset????? my god. just scroll past it.
ramothhe violates Godwin's Law:
If you're going to be all Nazi about it, and not even allow pictures with kitties and others in it..hate to tell you, but about 95% of the pictures that Ive ever seen in here would not be 'allowed'. And plus you arent even the mod. The MOD thank goodness, is much more mature than you are, and doesnt act like that, so why dont you just step aside and let her do her job.
The wank migrates into Raine's journal, where anonymice make
STOP POSTING PICTURES OF YOUR UGLY KIDS IN KITTY COMMUNITIES!
IF WE WANTED TO SEE GOD AWFUL UGLY CROTCH DROPPINGS WE WOULD JOIN A BABY COMMUNITY!
SOMEONE NEEDS TO TAKE YOUR CATS AWAY FROM YOU SO YOUR BASTARDS CAN'T HARM THEM!

Please give up your cats to someone who does not have children who will abuse them. Maybe you could also work on educating yourself a little.
P.S. Your children are the ugliest things I've ever seen.
Love,
Trish

POST NATAL ABORTIONS ARE SOMETHING YOU SHOULD CONSIDER

WHITE TRASH BREEDERS SHOULDN'T OWN CATS!

k.
thx.

One anon attempts to support her and adds to the wank:
why is it you can all use CAPS AND SWEARING AT HER WHILE HIDING BEHIND AN ANONYMOUS NAME??? UNREAL. BTW I posted as anonymous to make a point you twits! too bad all your parents didnt abort you, then again, maybe they tried. You are all abortions gone wrong.

ladyvox and co. suggest a post to LJ Abuse, and hope "this did not ruin your lj experiences".
However, the wank CONTINUES!
absofrickinlute makes a friends-only 'I'm leaving' post: "The sheer malice, cruelty and spite in recent comments makes me want no further part of this community."
The mod steps in, telling members "let's not be dramatic." It's a little late for that, methinks.
In that post,tasgenta says that "yesterday reminded me of those militants beheading people." (Shouldn't that be a new intarweb law?), and a few people express varied opinions about asking for money (plz halp mi sik kat.)
Whew. I think that's all for now - but a lot of wank over one small picture!
EDIT: Another post, mocking the original one, causes even more drama in the comments. Wow.
