Wank about boobies
Not those boobies: the blue-footed variety. ![[info]](http://www.journalfen.net/img/userinfo.gif)
wtf_nature is at it again after someone posts a picture of a blue-footed booby along with this:
First Post!
Look! It gots blue feet!
And then I ask myself what if any is the need for blue feets?
The general sentiment is that blue-footed boobies were only wtf back in third grade, and members start claiming spotlight killed the community, calling for mod intervention, and pointing out that the post breaks the rules by not including info. (This isn't everything. Look for bursts all over the comments.)
There is some dissent, but it's not untilgravitys_enemy chimes in with this that it gets truly wanky:
Ok look, I realize this person posted what has been called a repeat. I think we've all established that. Also the person should have said more about the picture than they did.... that all being said, no need to be quite so rude. Some of us are new. I didn't see the picture before, and I didn't mind seeing it, so thank you poster for posting it. I understand if we want to make a think over the fact it's a repost... but one, two, even ten comments get the job done.
Disgruntled wtf-ers take that about as well as you'd expect. Don't miss the bonus flounce and respost wank.
ETA: the comm is exploding all over the place today. (Failure to get sarcasm in that last link is pretty spectacular.)
ETA2: Boobies = deleted. ETA1 links still work, though.
ETA3: It continues.
Being sarcastic to the newbies and dropping the f-bomb all over the place sure looks like trolling to me. (Emphasis on "to me.") No, I'm not a mod, but I've got children, and I don't tolerate potty mouth or disrespect from them or from strangers like you.
