2:11a - Ooh, it's publisher wank!
A small, cute ickle baby wank for your Tuesday.
It seems ironic that there would be wank about erotic romance, doesn't it? But there is.
Over on the blog of Jaynie R., an editor and aspiring erotic romance writer Jaynie stirs up the splooge by posting an anonymous comment bashing Elloras Cave, a leading publisher of romantic erotica.
"It doesn't surprise me. I know for a sad fact that EC doesn't give a damn about
most of their authors. Only the ones who kiss ass.If you aren't an ass kisser, they
have no use for you. just your books.They just love to screw their authors over."
Naturally, many Elloras Cave authors leap in to defend themselves.
The amusing thing is that now there's a sequel to this wank, which has not reached wankiness in itself, but the day is still young.
Edited because I accidentally snipped a bit of the original anonymous wank out of the link.

2:30a - Two. No, six. No, twelve. BAKER'S DOZEN!
Wtf-inc is starting the year off on a wanky foot!
Cellar_door267 makes a post about the recent SNL Narnia rap, saying, "I think SNL is trying to hard." Boomstick apparently agrees that it is "dumb, overrated, and un-funny," but doesn't see how it is WTF. Commence wankage.
Be sure to watch where boomstick calls cellar_door267 "a cranky little cunt" and gets banned by a mod, only to show up as ghettoblaster to continue wanking. Also, check out the very amusing responses to cellar_door267's less than stellar grammar and spelling, and this.
(I thought the skit was hilarious, so I must be very lame. Either that or the opposite of a wanker.)

4:52p - Wank in Girl Gamers!
extrophic_ghost does not like the Nintendo Revolution controller and says so.
He compares it to the PowerGlove, and claims that plans to make a
"shell" for the controller won't work as they'd apparently have to be
as long as the original controller. Various people object, but
the wank doesn't start until extrophic_ghost starts butting heads with shockingalberto.
Highlights include: Accusations that Ghost is a Playstation Fanboy!
The Revolution is the console equivilent of the PSP!
People don't want revolution, they want things that are familiar!
Maybe gloves look different where you come from.
Really, I wouldn't consider this too wanky in and of itself...
Until extrophic_ghost decides to post the same complaint again. In the same community, no less.
Highlights of this one include: I'm not a Sony Fanboy! Honest!
Dancing on Gumpei Yukoi's Grave! (Though I wish I knew what was in the deleted comments down there)
Requests to stop deleting comments
Stay on topic or don't be insulting, and I won't delete your comments.
STOP COMPARING THE REVOLUTION TO THE DS, THEY"RE TOTALLY DIFFERENT
Ctrl+Alt+Del is trotted out to make a point that is completely missed.
You are all sheep!
In the meantime, I'll be over here coveting paintobscura's icons.

7:04p - apostraphe!!!!
Sarcastro posted a metaquote about how long-haired men look like bemulleted lesbian Hanson brothers who can't change tires.
Some people disagree.
Some people think people who disagree are taking the quote too seriously.
And then the Mod Himself descended from the Metaheavens and promised smitings and swarms of ass-locusts should Haldirsbitch ever sass anyone in Metaquotes again.
Happy New Year!

The gals at ![[info]](http://www.journalfen.net/img/userinfo.gif) feminist are at it again.
misfratz posts some links to articles about domestic violence inflicted on men by women. These articles, she claims, are evidence of a vast antifeminist conspiracy to discredit women who are abused.
When several community members respond that, while the articles may be biased, men can be abused by women, misfratz flips her shit.
robynchick, for instance, posts an explanation of why she felt the articles were valid, to which misfratz responds:
Read the actual post, for fucks sake. Or just sod off and cry for the poor little men whilst women are being actually killed. This community is not feminist at all.
The wanky remarks fly fast and furious from there on in.
Now, bitchy infighting is rather common in the feminist community, but what makes this truly wanky is misfratz's followup post:
Is this community actually for feminists (ie for defending rights of women)?
(Because if it is, why should I have to preface a post about groups that try to attack women and trivialise violence against women by saying how great men are, in order to avoid being attacked by people who think the purpose of feminism is to defend men?)
And of course, thus follows plenty more spooge.
