syncope: (pete says what I want to)

Ok, wait. Bandflesh got deleted? Wow, there really is internet karma for assholes.

Ok, I see a lot of people saying "this is horrible, who would do this?" Well, I don't know, one of the people the dickwads badmouthed? It seems pretty reasonable to me. You act like a cock and people get mad and get revenge...what's surprising here?

We have a whole system in fandom where we say that people should be able to say ANYTHING they want and as long as they take it when someone else dishes it out, it's all well and good. Utter bullshit. Especially when we're talking about anonymous coms on JF.

As far as I can tell, jf exists to give safe harbor to assholes who want to talk shit that they can't get away w/ on lj. Waaaaaaaaah waaaaaaaah someone finally got fed up with that crap.

If you were on bandflesh and not a total dick, I'm sorry but we're often judged by the company we keep. It's happened to me personally over and over and I expect it will continue to as long as I have friends who do shady shit. I have a suggestion: instead of anonymously screaming about people you wish you were, how about you create something positive with your time? It's a reach, but I'm sure some of you can write fic or make icons or something. Stop being assholes, or, you know, stop being 11.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAND I think I now have to leave the one good Rahm Emanuel com because of stupid goy idiots making Jewish "jokes." Wtf, dude, how hard is it to understand you don't make remarks about a minority group you're not part of in a "joking" way? Arg! Fucking idiots.

ETA: I turned off anonymous comments. I've been wanked to HELL and back and have never bothered to do this. Bandom: a whole new level of total idiots. You're free to say what you like w/ your lj name attached--fuck, make one up and sockpuppet me, but seriously, children, "ILU" and "IHU" and so on is pointless. Get together w/ your friends and aggregate those comments, so, like you can post a comment that says "IHU ~ten bandfleshers who won't attach their names because of the lulz!" or whatever other dumb shit you have to say. K? Alrighty!

So I was bitching to [livejournal.com profile] poisontaster about how the hurt feelings of people who dislike me caused me to not get around to writing my Castiel fic today. And I made the epic mistake of mentioning how I was considering writing RPS about Alexander Skarsgard because I'm a lameass in this way. AND.

She was just laying in wait for this revelation apparently as she is also a "fan."

I begged her to give me relevant "facts" so I could get my orgy of insanity on but she says she has no information (meaning: she sucks at this enabling thing).

Basically I want to know who the crazy people are who've already done the labor to dig up all the relevant "facts" about Alexander Skarsgard. I NEED INFORMATION.

I'm going to do some laundry, and when I come back I expect someone to have ponied up "facts" for me.

Also, dudes, it's ok, re: the kids hating me. It's not a big deal and you can just read it and laugh and not worry that I'm upset. I do understand your concern, and I appreciate it, but really. I said shit they don't like and I knew at the time they'd be angry. My dislike of the anonymemes is that they're anonymous. When you're faceless and nameless you can say/do things that are amoral and unreasonable because no one knows it was you. It's all about a sense of entitled backstabbery that I really abhor. I'm sorry that some people who are otherwise good people find that appealing. I'm not saying I think you should die (unlike my fanclub). But anyway, just like I do when I see picspams about Ryro, you are free to hit the back button if I say something you really really hate. I feel that the culture we've developed in fandom where we're afraid to say what's on our minds because of crazy bullies on jf (or otherwise) will wank you is just nuts. Saying that you're doing something for the "lulz" is not a goddamned get out of jail free card, and apparently people think it is. Just because you think you're being funny and other people are "too serious" or "don't get it" is utter bullshit. This is what happened in the dumb politisex com. When it was racism people GOT that it was wrong (well, the people who didn't get a lobotomy with a spork). It seems to take something that extreme for a lot of people to listen regarding general decency.

Idk, a friend of mine told me when I was talking about how fbr_t was funny that it was horrible and bad and wrong, and I was like "dude, the people there are like below stupid on the dumb scale, what's the problem? It's funny!" and I realized I was part of the problem (I still read the community because I believe in double standards for EVERYONE not just me, please feel free). Mostly bandom is awesome and the best fandom ever because everyone's so insane and loves it that way (I mean, how can you take liking PANIC AT THE DISCO seriously? If you do, god help you), but there are always people whose fun is to say awful shit about people they dislike. I've said it over and over--and that's fine as long as they do it around likeminded people who also enjoy that kind of thing, but you also have to realize that some people will be happy when you in turn have shitty things happen to you if you do things like that. Also, saying you wish someone would die kind of negates your moral high horse, so if you would like to maintain that moral high horse please instruct your community members that saying things like that makes you all look like assholes. Ok then.

We don't have any community standards, which this whole episode just highlighted for me. I don't know if that was always true or just something I noticed when people started being giant idiots right in my face. Omg, so, one of my friends just told me that someone on bandflesh accused ME of being the hacker? Hol-lee shit, folks! I c&p the lj-cut tag every. single. time. I can barely WORK a computer. Peeking up the wrong skirt, but as far as LOLZ go, pretty high. Dude, seriously, get real. I don't even read your com which is where i got the mistaken impression it was a hate com to begin with, imbeciles.
