che_gilsonRARRRR! I am here to vent about internet asholes! Specifically internet assholes on Absolute Write. Some holier than thou jag-off on AW sent me a nasty rep (reputation points- which if you ask me is the most retarded thing to put on a MESSAGE BOARD EVER. But I will get back to that.)
Basically they commented on my profile about a post I made and they had no real reason to send the rep other than to be an asshole and prove to me their assholery.
Now, here is why something like "reputation points" on a message board is the utter height of stupidity. It's the INTERNET and probably 99% of the internet is people running around trying to prove that they are SUPER AWESOME GODS AND THEREFOR SUPERIOR TO YOU. And the only way they can do all that is to be ASSHOLES to everyone else.
I also got called out on my retarded unicorn joke which I still stand behind! Because I'm tired of PC bullshit and because it's a JOKE. It's not serious. I'm not making fun of anyone's- what is the PC term, developmentally disabled?- kid/sibling/relative/whatever. And because it's impossible to use the term developementally disabled in a joke.
So, suck on that Absolute Write.
