1:33p - Troll! In the support group!
The Aspies are at it again!

This one starts out fairly tame as a laughably obvious troll posts a sarcastic screed to the comm and members respond with variations on "yawn".

But then shrike feels the need to assert his superiority, uran applauds the troll for smacking down those lame Aspies who don't try to lose weight and act normal, and an image duel breaks out. (Still waiting for the Special Olympics one.)

I should probably stop reporting these. They're just too easy.

9:07p - if their wuz a god i wudnt b suicidle!
[info]the_awfultruth came to the [info]atheist community to rant. About what, no one knows, since her grammar, spelling, and odd choice of text sizes and colors made the rant nearly unreadable, but here it is in all its brainmelting glory:

I Nicole Lynn am an Atheist. )

The standard response to this is a variation of "I'd like to read what you're saying, but I can't due to your atrocious grammar." [info]the_awfultruth responds that it isn't her fault she can't spell; she's from the South. This naturally upsets the literate southerners on the board.

Others defend her illiteracy: "The girl clearly is to lazy to type things out properly, deal with it. I am not from Texas and I have crappy grammar, why? Because I'm too damned lazy to spend any sizeable amount of time typing something out because i have better things to do. Stop being mean you sow's."

After several comments, [info]the_awfultruth still doesn't get it: "why do yall care so much about writing? how come all the communitys i try to be in cares so much?"
I don't know, maybe all the "communitys" you've joined expect literacy from their members? How dare they?!

After everyone's had their fun ripping her a new one, [info]the_awfultruth makes her whiny thought-provoking exit speech:

"your comments really tore me up lastnight and i hope you all are happy for the way you made me feel. i was just looking for someone to talk to about my decisions because i cant talk to anyone in my family about this or any of my friends.
i figured that yall would understand, but i found myself wrong and very hurt.

im not going to be in any communitys anymore,and im sure yall do not care.
but i hope you all are happy with the things you said to me. and i tried to make you understand that i have a disability i cannot write or spell very well and im NOT saying that its bacause im from the south.

i wish to advise you all to watch deeply what you say to anyone. beacuase you never know what the person might do because of what you say to them."


The saga does not end there. A day later, [info]the_awfultruth's best friend, [info]100__stories, comes to the community to defend her friend and tell everyone what horrible, horrible people they are.

[She] was criticized for something she cannot help. So she types bad. Big deal. )

The wank goes on in the comments, and [info]the_awfultruth steps back in to have her final say:

"i hope you someday get hurt as badly as i did. and i hope you suffer badly!"

Can you feel the love?
