[info]kitsunegari posts to [info]stupid_free about Britney Spears shaving her head. The resulting wank has nothing to do with the subject matter, but the fact that she signs her posts. (Small but spirited.)

Not that [info]kitsunegari came out of there smelling sweet or another, but what the fuck is with people flipping their shit about signed posts? You'd think somebody had shot their dog, molested the corpse, and sprinkled the ashes over their Cheerios all because somebody threw sparkling shit over the end line of their thread.

I know. That made me go "O_o", too. The hatred is so virulent.

I think it's because signing your posts is a combination of the sparkly and the pretentious, AND it's repetitive, so it's constantly in your face, AND it's on most people's dumbass filters, AND to add insult to injury, it's something that was originally supposed to be for the benefit of the reader, so you're getting all this annoying crap on your screen for your own good. (Or else you'll forget whose comment you were reading, of course.) Plus the "free speech" defense usually gets hauled out in the first couple of rounds, and that always kicks the wank up a notch.

So. No one good reason, just a bunch of little reasons.
