Anonymous secrets about Hanson are serious business!
Over on livejournal, there's wank in the LJ Secret community (which works along the same lines as the Post Secret website). Earlier today, a mod made a post about how various members of a certain LJ community (which isn't named in the post but is mentioned both in the comments and can be discovered through a little research of the banned users) were planning on spamming the community with fake secrets. As a result, all the people who supported the plan over on the other community are banned from LJ Secret. Wank ensues when the banned members show up, then later when members use this opportunity to voice their negative opinions about LJ Secret. Some highlights:

[info]safetypinpirate : "I IMed a mod/maintainer/whoever there and appologized on behalf of everyone!!" And we weren't really going to go through with it either! PLZ TO BE UNBANNING ME.

[info]nmbr5wthabulet: " what a freaking douche. did you ever think that maybe it was just something to be humerous, and not taken seriously? lighten up. its livejournal, not the OR."

[info]_heartdown: "You guys, LJ Secret didn't survive a massive blow. [...] There's no need for cheering."

EDIT: (Thanks, mousie!) [info]sevensweeny: "YOU GUYS TAKE YOURSELVES WAY TOO FUCKING SERIOUSLY. [...] This community isn't god. And quite honestly, I think that with the way the mods are handling the situation is much more entertaining than the secrets they were trying to post."

[info]golden639: "just because i laughed in the beginning does not mean I was going to go along with it and I didnt. [...] im still going to read this and its still my favorite community even if you all hate me."

Aaaand, anonymous: "I'm going to horribly spam the submission post just because of the fact you banned us."

This is an oddly fascinating community but at the same time I feel really really bad about reading some of these.

So they banned these people because they were planning on posting "fake secrets?" Is there some sort of verification process to make sure all the secrets that get posted are real? Give me a break.

...shut up. I like Hanson. And I don't really get that community. It's just for making graphics of things like "God, I hate my math teacher"?

That community is *such* a guilty pleasure. 90% of the 'secrets' are along the lines of:

"I listen to Hanson! While cutting! While cutting and banging my golden retriever who looks a lot like my ex-boyfriend that I cheated on because he is no longer scene enough for me! And I do it all because I am anorexic and have not eaten in 28 days because nobody loves me on the internets!"

And almost every single secret is written in -50pt font on the first image that pops up when you type "woe :(" into Getty images.

But despite that, it is just so addictive.

This is one of the secrets from the most recent post:

I'm guessing that anyone who says some version of "(insert band name here)saved my life" never learned that to succeed at killing themselves they'd have to cut deeper.

The original owner passed away a month ago and this was one of her pet projects which she was proud of. I think it is very shamefull to see this project degrade in a a place of wank because people are being stupid about all of this.

They all seem to be so wank horny that it is becoming a sad thing.

From the user info:

LivejournalSecret is based on the art project PostSecret, which has influenced much of Livejournal.

Um ... I've been on lj about 4 years now (though not all that actively) and I've never heard of PostSecret. We really do all live in our own little ponds, don't we?

Hmm. I love PostSecret, but my initial euphoria at eljay copying died with some of these secrets:

I've had a yeast infection for years... but I am too embarrassed to see a doctor.

Gawd! Are you telling me you can't even bring yourself to buy some fucking YOGHURT and see if that helps? I don't think the cashier will figure it out.

I made up a boyfriend to make my ex and all of my friends jealous...That was three years ago. I haven't had a boyfriend since. I wonder if it's karma.

Yeah, that's right. Karma was pretty friggin' annoyed at your massive lie.

People believe we're eltiest, but we're not really...

I truly hope you're not.
