I made a policy for myself when dealing with arguments on the internet. If I feel that I've made my point and any further comments would be futile, I stop posting. If I get too annoyed in whatever battle of "wits" I'm in, I must immediately stop posting. I delete any further comments from my inbox and walk away.

Why? Because the internet is SRS FN BSNS! If I'm getting too SRS, it's time to stop. I'm sure plenty of mice and other assorted idiots out there then get the feeling that they've "won!!" But I like to think of myself as the ultimate winner since I go off to do more constructive things with my time.

I'd like to encourage other people to take a look at my policy, modify it to suit their needs and put it into action! It'll save your blood pressure from going up, it will save your hair from falling out, and it will save you from making an ass of yourself on the internet. Because there is ALWAYS someone wrong on the internet. Sometimes it's you!

In yhostinghorrors this question was posed: Why does poser art never make sense?

This is my answer:
Since the mere act of "posing" is the only actual creative input you put into poser work, since the figures, objects, and textures are all provided for you through download or purchase, the art must then be made suitably surreal and incomprehensible to compensate and thus shift it over from mere dress up to "inspired" and "artistic."

I hate most of that shit. It's a rare piece of poser art that impresses me and none of that work is even posted on y!gallery. We only have a few pedophiles putting people faces on cat bodies and having Naruto heads on Mt. Rushmore. Ugh. Fucking poser bullshit.

If someone says that they don't care about something, then telling them to inform themselves on the topic is stupid and useless. If they truly don't care, they're not going to waste their time reading up on a subject they *gasp* don't care about!

Brought to you by this crazy plan. And today I have launched my campaign of shunning. Shuuuuuuuunnnnnuh!

From this to this.

As much as I dislike stupid people, it gives me a thrill when I catch the dumb ones in the act.

If you don't care enough to make a journal entry about how much you don't care then you care! And you look like a douchebag for pretending otherwise.

Twice in the last few days have I had some moron reply to a comment of mine with a link to a comment they've made or simply ordering me to see their previous comment. If I was asking a question and they've already answered it somewhere else, fine, I get that. But making a comment about the ugliness of something (once in an icon comm and once in an ugly things comm) and having someone essentially say "Oh hey! Look how witty I am! Look look, go see the funny I made!" Just makes me want to put my fist in someone's face. If you're so funny, witty, snarky, or whatever, people will see your comment and respond to it. If they all pass it by, don't start referring people to your throw away remark like it's something of value. Piss off.

After seeing the wide variety of situations that people toss out the word "butthurt" in, I've attempted to define the word to my satisfaction.

Butthurt [buht-hurt]

1. An internet buzzword that is tossed out in srs internet fights in hopes that the insulting implication will offend the other party and make them slink into a hole.
2. A cop out word used to avoid the issue by demeaning the other party.
3. Feeling associated with a blow to one's pride or ego.
4. Insulting internet slang for emotions ranging from anger and rage to sadness and disappointment.
5. Adjective referring to a Sore Loser

In accordance with my policy, once you see me stop replying to your crap, I'm not there anymore. I'm not reading your comments. You are talking to the wall. But feel free to continue nattering on. It makes me laugh every time I delete your comment notifications from my inbox.

I'm sure you like to imagine me desperately hovering over the keyboard, eagerly awaiting your every response with baited breath as I fap like a rabid monkey. It just ain't happening kids. Once you lose my attention, you don't exist anymore. How refreshing.

...makes us stronger.

And if it didn't make you stronger, just give up and die already.

Calling Troll seems to be the new way to stick your head in the sand and deny that something exists. Think something is too stupid to be true? Call troll. Thinks someone is too misogynistic to live in the modern world? Call troll. Think that someone's negative opinion of your fandom is too mean? Call troll.

Bullshit!

Not every negative opinion is trolly. Not every assface is a troll, they're just an assface. Not every inflammatory statement that you disagree with has a troll behind the computer who's just in it for the lulz. Sometimes people really are that nasty or opinionated or whatever. What's the point of calling troll on everything you don't like? It's like adding a happy tint of rose to your glasses and it's stupid. Can we face reality here people? That river in Egypt is long enough without you adding some more denial to the water.

Naaaaaaaaaah! I'm just a mule with an attitude. I just say whatever the hell I wanna say. You don't like it? Too fucking bad. Airing an unpopular opinion does not make one a troll.

Everybody has one! And it's probably full of shit. Unless they douche regularly. Or it's full of cock.

Dear Morons of the Web,

I'm sure you think the "Reading Comprehension" argument is cute, but you need to apply it to a relevant situation! If someone replies to something and you don't like what they say, it's not a matter of reading comprehension.

Reading Comprehension can be defined as the level of understanding of a passage or text. Proficient reading comprehension depends on the ability to recognize words quickly and effortlessly. In other words, reading comprehension is about...wait for it...vocabulary! That's right! Your comprehension of a passage is dependent on you understanding what words mean.

Know what that means? Reading comprehension =/= personal interpretation of written text. It's your ability to read and understand the words, therefore not the same as an analysis of the meaning of the text. Don't be a whiny asshole and throw out terms that you don't comprehend. You fail on a massive scale.

No Love,
SRS FN BSNS

P.S. Send me more flaming poo, my other one went out.

Not safe for work tags... I hate them. How about, don't goof off at work?

Sure, I've browsed through the news at work and read articles on wikipedia, but I don't dick around on LJ even on my breaks. I don't need anyone snooping on my history to try and dig up dirt.

If you're surfing lj from work, even in your spare time, you're a moron. No, I won't reward you with "Not safe for work" tags. Browse that shit at home and do some work!

Why is it that no matter how many communities I join, my f-list proves to be a boring and stagnant place?

Wow. Some moron paid money, actual real money, to put a picture of pixelated poo on my profile. Better yet, it's a picture I can delete if I wish! And someone felt the need to PAY MONEY for it!

Well gee, thanks! I'll wear it with pride. XD
