Social Experiments 'R Us
I remember there being this one wank report where the wanker came over here to say that it was all just a social experiment. In and of itself not that interesting, but s/he also went on to oh-so-graciously give us time to take down the wank report before we were exposed to the world as the morons that we were for being gullible enough to fall for said social experiment.

Anyone know what I'm talking about?

	Bells are ringing, but very faintly. Something about a pretentious pseudo-intellectual in the, er, LoTR? fandom. She was sesquipedalian to the max. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	I was thinking of P@L, the self-proclaimed Philosopher At Large. She was wanked at http://www.journalfen.net/community/fandom_wank/359086.html. I don't know if this is the one you're thinking of, and I am too put off by by her TL;DR to check. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	...I don't remember that, and I'm a relative JF n00b, but I first heard the "social experiment" excuse when someone claimed their cat had been set on fire by hooligans and they couldn't afford the vet bills, and then was like O HAI I JUST WANTED TO SEE HOW MANY PEOPLE WOULD GIVE ME MONEY.

	Oh dear god yes. I remember being horrified at the internet that day. I kind of wanted to go read Harry/James necroporn to remind me of the good old days. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Thanks! Bafflingly, I just found this in the comments. EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED, DISTANTLY. Unless it's not.

	relive the moments when you lost your faith in humanity It's kind of depressing to note how many of them there are, honestly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I know! By now my faith in humanity has been reduced to "my faith in the idea that humanity probably doesn't mean to be as ridiculous as it apparently is, unless it's posting about an imaginary be-arson'd cat for money." (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Was that pirate...something? I believe she ended up deleting the whole thing even after she was banned. I know her name had pirate in it but other than that, I can't remember. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Indeed, but I have to be grateful to her; I was a mouse at the time, and my arguing with her inspired someone to give me an account. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	If it's piratelair, the remaining links are these: http://www.journalfen.net/community/fw_debate/15247.html http://www.journalfen.net/community/fandom_wank/804023.html I don't think that fits his description, but I can't remember the wankitywank post that well, either. (Reply to this)(Parent)
