LJ Cuts: SERIOUS BUSINESS.
Oh dear. Who would have thought that a basic request for an LJ cut would go so wrong?

Meet [info]aegion. S/he has a stick so far up his/her bum that any and all requests for LJ cuts are triggering—at least, triggering in that they turn her into a complete asshat whenever they're asked for.

The first instance occurred in [info]ourbedrooms, where a poster made a very image-heavy post. [info]layersofmeaning comments asking for an LJ cut. [info]aegion takes offense at this. Of course, her flipping out is okay because she's a role-model in the community, and anyone that tries to talk sense to her is too verbous, and a stylistic nightmare.

It quiets down after this, but oh no, not for long . . .

Enter [info]naruhodo_kun. She makes a post to [info]girl_gamers, showcasing a piece of fan art she drew. It's pretty large, and it's posted without an LJ cut, so [info]aerynmoo comments asking for a cut. Alas, what she didn't know is that [info]aegion was on the scene, and found her asking for a cut downright rude. She proceeds to flip out. Of course, she can't help it—those requests for cuts are a PET PEEVE, and turn her into a drooling moron. If you can't afford high-speed internet, the lack of LJ cuts will force you off welfare! But don't call her on her shit, or SHE WILL PWN YOU! Just like she pwned that "twenty something year old virgin", [info]misscarlos.

If I don't post again, know it was because [info]aegion PWNED! me.

That reminds me of the year when those email stationery programs came out and people thought it was an OMGRIGHT! to use them on email lists. The fact that they took up almost a meg per message (and usually the message was simply "LOL! Me too!") at a time when freeboxes were size-limited is completely beside the point, of course.

(Of course, that's nothing compared to the state Senate candidate who spammed local activists' mailboxes with 3 meg powerpoint attachments and caused my clients' emails to bounce, but it was still annoying.)

Jebus.
Tell me that guy didn't get elected. . .please?

I always hated those emails, too. Remember kids: your browser settings =/= my browser settings! Also, red and yellow text on a blue background will make people want to hurt you.

Alas, with the great power of Jebus at his side, he did get elected. He's a right asshole, too, even leaving aside his PP spams. I still remember driving around and hearing his ad on local radio saying that "all local GOP precinct captains support me"-- I was one, and I wouldn't vote him in as President of the Plumber's Crack Alliance, let alone my state senator. What a tool.

It's my belief that people who actually DO have something to say are rarely the ones spazzing over the pretty stationary or sig pics.
