Madame Defarge probably isn't welcome there EITHER
Ravelry: it's like Facebook! It's for knitters and crocheters! It hit the New York Observer! It spawns four pages of grudgewank! It's like a concentration camp, in a way!

Their knitting community has their own wank community? Wow, that is one inclusive and expanded community.

... or knitters really are as batshit as everyone says.

lol It's pretty much just watching the wanky threads that show up on the ravelry boards.

Yeah, but how many theme boards have their own section for watching all the crazy shit that goes on? Even godawful fanfiction didn't have that.

It's probably for the best. With all the "I've never been on these new fangled internets" people on there, wank springs up often. If they posted it here we'd drown in the stuff.

There's a group for pretty much anything you can think of there - of the ones I belong to I think only one or two are actually about knitting. All the others are politics- or fandom-related.

And to think, I just joined so I could knit and chat.

The sad part is we have to be really careful-- no calling people out, no direct quoting, etc.-- and people still whine about how the Rubberneckers are Ruining the Spirit of Ravelry.

I have not seen this group there, but I think I want to!

Just search on "Rubberneckers." We talk about booze and boobs a lot. You should fit right in!

The booze I like; the boobs I'll leave with the spouse. He's a knitter, too -- the man loves his cables!
