1:18a - Otherkin Wank.
[info]crazymaxwell thinks otherkin who are made up of a dozen different things are stupid. He links to some recent posts in the community to express his amusement and annoyance at the posters. He does this fairly regularly. You'd think people would be used to it.

But, alas, no.

[info]blueeyesblazing calls troll and [info]raki goes on to explain repeatedly and at length how sarcasm is only used by trolls.

The fact that they just keep going when it's clear [info]crazymaxwell doesn't give a damn, and even declare him "p00ned" is what makes it a nice, frothy desert wank, I think.

I'm not even gonna tell you to refrain from furry-mocking or kin-mocking. Just try to keep it funny and not be boring, k?

A post by fresh_tart on mock_the_stupid reports on a passage in Kim Cattrall's new sex book in which she waxes poetic about standing on the beach where Aphrodite arose from the foam on her Botticellian clamshell 5,000 years ago.

There is question as to how that is mock-worthy right off the bat, with people saying they doubt she meant it literally. Then there is much discussion about how this would not be mocked if it referred to Jesus. Cue debate on whether or not Jesus existed. Wilkinscathj tries to bring it back on topic, but alas, that is not to be. Really, it's not. Okay, now I'm just running out of words for links.

Who knew Hellenistic Paganism was such a major religion nowadays?

[info]bubonicplague has some trouble with a copycat and posts about it in bad_rpers_suck.

[info]modest_tales is less than sympathetic:

So, her Snape loves Bellatrix and is terribly verbose with little substance, too? Huh.

Funny how plagiarizing works in the RP world.


Vitriol ensues.

(I can't tell if this counts as fandom or not, so I'm sticking it in here to be on the safe side.)

Edit: aaaaaaaaand baleeted. Thanks for bringing over some consolation-wank, bubonicplague. *sniffle*

10:45a - randomthought wank
It all starts with this entry that [info]godsstepson makes to randomthought over on lj.

[info]petercallow responds with this.

Small wank ensues.

But, wait! It's not over yet.

[info]petercallow feels the need to make another post complaining about the the intelligent people of the community "starting shit."

It's small and there's a lot of apologizing going on in the comments to the second post, but I still think it's worth posting.

2:07p - "Smoking's GROSS!" "No YOU'RE gross!"
Over in Customers_Suck, FireyFox makes a post about people who smoke in non-smoking hotel rooms.

Everyone seems to agree that people should request the smoker-friendly rooms and everything's fairly calm.

But then Lintilla brings up her smoke allergy. Druid_Va and Chibi_Vegeta say there's no such thing as an allergy to cigarette smoke.

Witness people down the thread disagreeing. And arguing. And such. That calms down quickly enough until Lord_Snot reveals that smoking is disgusting and disrespectful!

People disagree.


current mood: *sporfle!*

11:10p - More feminist wank
Oookay... I'm screencapping some of this, because it runs serious risks of deletion. Like, probably before I finish writing

There has been discussions, some sane, some less such about privilege over at feminist

User chreebomb makes a post called Privilege: White, male, gender, heterosexual, and... blonde, smart, not-allergic-to-chocolate where she tries to humorously talk about the co-opt of the word "privilege" by the powerful. Yeah. and not at all raise a bit of drama along the way, no

Actual post, which isn't that interesting yet )

The wank comes in the first reply
sweetsatingirl: Yo Hot Bitch - you made my day!! I was bored and now I am not!
(cap of the answers)

panic_girl is snarky (cap) and catwoman980 just wants John Stewert to spank her in a subversive way

foursixths: i agree, there are ways for chreebomb to make her points without slyly keeping personal drama martyr thing going.

evil_laughter wants LotR-RPS, I think. Or how else would you read o rly?

We have a cry of DEAR LORD MAKE IT STOP ALREADY

Mod smackdown!
At present, this post is serving multiple purposes. It is an effort to continue a discussion of privilege. It is also an effort to create or continue community drama.

Remove the complaints about "personal attacks" and the links to other people's journals (which happen to feature your critiques of community members and the community itself) or I will delete this post.


There is also this little revealing link which indicates that OP was at least partly trolling

Think that's it for now...

*sighs* Why do I hang there? Oh right, the news and occasional sane discussions

This has been brewing for a while and there's lots of wank in previous post on this topic. But hey, I'm lazy, go look for it yourself.
