Title: Stumbling across old F+ subjects in my daily life
Post by: Ansemaru on January 28, 2014, 07:29:49 am
Just wondering how much this has happened to everyone else. I've been spending more time looking into mental health matters online, and I'm kind of amused/bewildered whenever I stumble across websites that the F+ has done episodes on before. I suppose I shouldn't be too surprised, given that the people who submitted said episodes had to have found them somewhere, but it's been kind of surreal to turn up results from Experience Project, Daily Strength, and Above Top Secret of all things in the course of one or two related google searches. I guess the upside of there having been episodes on these things is the fact that I now know better than to turn to them for advice, but it's still kind of funny.

So, weigh in: have any of you accidentally bumped into old subjects while looking for or doing something unrelated to the F+?

Walking home and doing a double-take when seeing, alongside posters for upcoming bands and shows, an "awareness" poster discouraging women from being one of those women who ruins the legal system and men's careers by filing rape charges after they've "regretted" a one-night stand.

From A Voice For Men of course. So much more infuriating to encounter in public than via the comforting mockery of the F Plus.

Every fucking search I make brings out results from Experience Project. Then again, I do search for stuff like "people who are in love with Godzilla". Sometimes making Fplus docs is its own reward.

I've more or less given up on keeping up a lot of animation news, since Cartoon Brew and its goofy-ass opinions come up way too often. If it's not Cartoon Brew then it'll be a site that acts just like it. If it's not a site, it'll be a PERSON who acts just like them. A couple of years ago I was talking to a cartoonist-type-guy who said "oh yeah, I met Doug TenNapel a while back! Fun guy!" At that point he immediately rolled his eyes because he knew how I felt about that asshole, and said "yeah, yeah, I know, different political opinions and all but still, great guy, fun to be around!" The tone of his voice suggested that I was being the unreasonable one here. If anyone's wondering, reducing something like "gay marriage is the same as bestiality!!! ZING!" to "differing political opinions" just because you like a dude's art and he has a wacky, fun persona is absolutely something that cartoonists do all the goddamned time. In the past people have also linked me to John K's blog for "animation tips" even though his blog is so batshit that we had to cut 40 fucking minutes of his ramblings out of that episode. They always say "yeah he's weird BUT HE MAKES SOME GOOD POINTS ABOUT MAKING GOOD CARTOONS!!" which I heartily disagree with, because the man is just incoherent.

Unfortunately I've ended up with kind of the reverse problem. I'll look at a site for potential episode material, only to find people I know of on said sites. Thankfully I haven't found any actual friends on such websites, only vague internet acquaintances. But someone will show me something Tumblr SJ-esque*, and I'll read through it thinking "oh good, this is a hilarious post about how Bugs Bunny was clearly consciously SMASHING THE BINARY whenever he'd dress in drag and how it's the most inspiring thing ever and how the WB animators were clearly SJWs themselves and--oh god, really? Dude, THIS PERSON agrees with this?? Oh god, get some new friends, buddy :("


* Incidentally I'd like more hilarious Tumblr SJW stuff if anyone has any. I'd want a wide variety of crazy though, not just "you know _______? It's PROBLEMATIC! THE END!"

I've done onsite tech support for someone who I am 90% sure is an adult baby and I used to work at an academic library where I dealt with everything from masturbating transsexuals, to three different foot fetishists, to hobos fighting in the library, and all sorts of other crazy shit. I miss that job because no matter how depraved or weird you thought people were, someone would always surprise you with something new and horrible that you had never thought of before.

We recently hired two new nurses in my research office. One of them chews ice occasionally (fully aware it's because of anemia), and the other gets all her recipe ideas from allrecipes. I asked jokingly if she'd ever heard of Taco In A Bag, and I swear to god, she beamed at me and said "oh, that recipe is just delicious, isn't it?" She isn't near as corpulent as you might think, but she's every bit as white and suburban housewife-y as you're probably imagining.

It threw me for such a loop when the first lady went on for a good minute about the benefits of white ice over clear ice.

Where I work (a Walmart), I stumbled across a box of high-class premium mineral water called Acqua Panna. I did a little more digging, and I'm getting some great enjoyment out of reading their website. (http://www.acquapanna.com/int/en/default.aspx)

For instance, from the pairing section (http://www.acquapanna.com/int/en/main/fine_dining/perfect_pairing/default.aspx) (which has, like, one whole sentence on food pairing):

“Acqua Panna is limpid and luminous and has neither effervescence nor any off-putting odour, and at a first sip has a pleasant, fresh, taste. Acqua Panna is low-acid in type and carries few mineral salts, without however impairing its structure. To the taste it is light and feathery, pleasantly soft and velvety. Acqua Panna shows a perfect balance in all its components, while the sensations induced linger in the nose and mouth for an appreciable period of time.”

Oh, and I kid you not, they have the "Water Codex," which is, honest to Christ, a 187-page book divided into three parts that talks about how to describe the taste of water and how each water differs from one another.

It is sadly not a very classy water, because Amazon sells it in packs of 12 for $49.83, a mere $4.15 per bottle.

one of my internet friends just "came out" as a multiple and I have no idea what to think of this

He's someone who's dealt with a lot of shit in his life and has a lot of assorted issues and illnesses so it's not entirely surprising he'd eventually go to this as a new coping mechanism (I think right before this he said he was fictionkin) but I still don't know what on earth I can do other than hope he eventually drops it because I know that with all the problems he has, this isn't going to help with much of anything in his life. Plus from what I understand he has issues with depersonalizing from things he's doing and not remembering he did them so I worry this is going to lead into some bad shit of divorcing himself from bad shit he's done or putting less effort into figuring out ways to function with it.

On a weirder note, apparently his mom is taking it in stride and casually asks which "personality" he is if he's acting stranger than usual and also asks if specific personalities would be willing to/better at helping her out with tasks. So at the very least she's so used to him having issues that she's found a way to work with it, although it also means he feels supported in his claim.

More than anything, The F Plus has occasionally provided a glimpse into the person I once was. A sort of dark mirror of shitty personality traits I hope I never have again.

For part of my life, I had opinions not too dissimilar from some of the "nice guys"/"love shy" guys. In college, I was too afraid to compromise my friendship with a certain girl by asking her out, yet I took it very personally when she got into a relationship with a married man instead of me. I think I actually believed at one point that she liked having nonthreatening men around to tease. In reality, she just never saw me as relationship material, and I never did anything to suggest otherwise. She's since found a much healthier and happier relationship, and I'm mature enough now to feel happy for her rather than bitter. Besides, she introduced me to Terry Pratchett, which is a lovely thing to do for someone.

One thing I still am is an ice chewer. I often worry how close I am to the people in those forums. Yes, different kinds of ice taste different and I don't know why. Yes, I instantly knew what "rabbit turd ice" was and agree that it's one of the better forms of ice to chew (easier on the teeth for one). No, I don't have iron deficiency and no, I've never injured my teeth chewing. I don't chew in public or steal ice from work like the Hamburglar, nor do I find that it's a big enough part of my life to join a dedicated forum. Still, I do have still something in common with a bunch of wackos, so it makes me kind of concerned.

Not sure if it'd cound as "real life", but I was reading through the backlog of the TV Tropes thread on SA, and suddenly there was a huge derail about the Dozerfleet guy. I read a few pages later, and find out that one of the posters there actually sent the Dozerfleet doc in. Full circle!

In November, I was doing a job assessment with a bunch of other people with autism. So part fo me expected some sort of F Plus subject to turn up. Maybe an asexual or a furry, but while I had my suspicions about a couple of them it seemed unlikely.

What I did meet, and didn't expect whatsoever, was a Juggalo. He seemed to use it as a blanket term for fans of horror-rap, and seemed to be more into Slipknot, but he wore a shirt with that ICP running-guy logo on it on the first day. His spiritual beliefs were also rather.... excessive, to say the least (I heard no mention of Shangri-La, though), and he was, like, really into Yu-Gi-Oh. We're talking 'had two decks on him, every day, one of them specifically made to counter the other deck, both of them worth hundreds of dollars'. I know that last one's not an F Plus episode, but I feel like it should be.

Despite all that, he was actually a pretty cool guy, as were most of the people there. I even met another F Plus fan when I used Malatora as a punchline in the first week. I don't know if he's got a ballp.it account, but on the last day he did show me a spreadsheet he's using for an F Plus Cards Against Humanity set. I don't remember much of them, but I remember having a lot of fun matching 'the popularity of Top Gear' to as many cards as possible.

I didn't experience it personally, but while walking dogs with a friend and fellow F Plus listener, she told me a work story prefaced with the question "What kind of F Plus subject was this guy?"

My friend was working the late shift alone in a small specialty footwear shop. My friend is an attractive lady. A man entered the store towards the end of the evening and made a confusing request. When my friend indicated footwear on display, asking if these were what he was referring to, he became belligerent and accused her of "getting lost in" his eyes. When he finally got to the point where he was trying something on, he announced that it felt like he was "walking on spears". When asked to clarify this statement in a socially recognizable way he said it felt like his entire body was "made of spears".

MRA, PUA, or serial killer?

i suppose my best stories would be about pagans if I could think of any good ones. i think it should suffice to say that i have never, for one second, been surprised by ANYTHING in ANY pagans/wiccians/newagers episode.

I felt so exactly the same. I have tried to listen to that particular episode... a few times? But like many tumblrite episodes, I just can't. It's too close to home. I'm pretty sure I followed people who were featured in that episode for the longest time. It just feels wrong. I dealt with the madness of that tumblr corner for so long before flipping and blocking them all, I don't want to relive it. THE THINGS I HAVE DEALT WITH FOR THE SAKE OF MAKING THINGS HOMOSEXUAL THAT BY ALL RIGHTS SHOULD NOT BE not that I'm under the impression that it isn't my fault but I still have a close friend that cosplays faunlock on the regular and I'm trying to leave this all in the dark shadows of my life. I enjoy being in the front lines of weird fad fandoms but God if that one didn't go off the rails

I spent the $10 just so I could share this: I met the author of "Tears of a Clown".

I went to a Nanowrimo meetup (my first mistake) back in November and ran into her. She appeared normal on all accounts: steady job, getting married, kept mostly to herself. The only reason it came up at all was because she was 'so excited' because all of a sudden people were buying copies of her book! And she had no idea what caused the spike in sales!

I didn't tell her. I couldn't tell her.

The only reason it came up at all was because she was 'so excited' because all of a sudden people were buying copies of her book! And she had no idea what caused the spike in sales!

I didn't tell her. I couldn't tell her.

Most of the people there weren't that crazy. I mean, there was the woman who told me all about her sister's heroin addiction within the first five minutes of meeting her. And there was the guy who's novel was all about the UN's secret blue hat army taking over America which he kept stressing COULD TOTALLY HAPPEN. Even the Juggalo Author was pretty normal save for the whole 'wrote a High School Juggalo romance novel' thing.

The best part of the evening was when it was my turn to talk about my novel. I was actually using Nanowrimo as a way to track my editing on my current already-written story. After I said that the guy next to me pretty much flipped out over how I was "cheating" and that what I was doing was against Nanowrimo and he was going to report me to guy in charge of the area and have me banned from the website. I laughed, thinking he was joking. He was dead serious. The guy ended up spending the rest of the meeting glaring at me for sullying the name of Nanowrimo.

There's an episode where I make a joke about someone's idiotic post by muttering "This is the kind of stuff that gets posted from public terminals." I believe that is probably the source of most of the idiot-traffic online are people who don't have the means (or the freedom) to have the internet in their home.

I used to work at a famous computer company's store in the Midtown Manhattan area, and I think I basically met most F Plus subjects on a daily basis. I could see a lot of people posting comments on blogs or logging into their forums and 3rd-rate e-mail clients. And FACEBOOK FACEBOOK FACEBOOK! Two customers stand out to me, though, as people who quiet possibly have been featured on the F Plus.

I was helping folks with answering questions when a lady flagged me down and asked me if our internet was out. Google's up, Facebook's up,
yeah the internet is working. The customer, an African-American woman in her early-forties, starts to explain her problem to me. "OK, because I was trying to get onto my forum to--" she stops, realizing there is an important piece of information I need, "First of all, I don't know if you know this, but the government is targeting people, like myself, who lead an unconventional lifestyle. I wanted to get onto my forum to connect with other targeted individuals, but the website won't load." Oh boy. I take a look, and she is trying to access David Icke's website. However, the in-store wi-fi has a blocker to help prevent most adult material from being accessed, and Icke's website must have triggered it. All I am able to say is that the site is blocked, and she gets a little terse. "Is that the computer's block or the company's block?" I don't know how to answer, so I say it's blocked by the store. There's an odd, inappropriate look of understanding on her face. She nods and smiles and starts to leave the store. "OK, I see, I see. Well, you're young, you have a lot to learn, and you take care of yourself, OK?" And she never came back. Odd that someone who is so worried about being tracked that they would try to use a computer with a camera in it, in a store canvased by cameras, in one of the busiest places, in the most crowded city on the east coast. But what the hell do I know? I'm 30 and I have a lot to learn.

The other customer had just bought a new tablet and needed some help getting it up and running, but was very adamant that I show her how to make a bookmark. As we go through other steps, she keeps mentioning the bookmarks. "I need to get my bookmarks so I can read my fan fiction." The needle slid of the record in my brain, because this was a middle-aged woman and not the twitchy teenager I imagine most fanfic authors to look like. So, I'm expecting awkwardness for the next 20 minutes as I try to have a conversation about anything else. Because who know what kind of fanfic she likes? Maybe they are all winged dogs that wet on each other instead of British wizards? Who knows! As she looks up the site she needs to bookmark, she starts raving about how much she loves reading Harry Potter fanfics, and making apologies. "I know, it's silly, but I gotta have my fanfics!" That's about how weird it got. When the bookmark was saved, I think she might have been the happiest person I've ever helped. It was nice to see that much joy in one person, and it was infectious. I wanted to shout for her to never apologize, never be embarrassed. Go and live your journey, lady! I gotta have my fanfics, too.

I've been spending the last eight months watching my younger sister turn into a Tumblob SJW, slowly but surely. She's a college freshman with a high opinion of herself and very little real-world experience, which will take you most of the way, but since we're mixed race, she falls more easily into the Tumblrite brand of white hate.

During the Grammys, she was actively rooting for Iggy Azalea to lose because "she's Austrailan, but she appropriates the way black people talk when she sings", but she had zero problem with Eminem winning. She also deliberately misinterprets things our parents say in an effort to start ranting about {insert cause here}, and it's getting to the point where I want to tell her to shut up, even if I agree with her.

I honest to god told her if she ever turns into the kind of person who thinks eating sushi is cultural appropriation, I'd stop talking to her. She promised she'd never go that crazy, but it's getting exhausting just to talk to her.

I felt infinitely better.

Me neither, it was pretty weird to hear that from kids in high school and I can't imagine how I'd feel when confronted with real bona fide adults doing that.

But on topic, I don't think I've mentioned, but when I was in highschool a girl I sort of knew kind of accosted me with intent to talk to me all about her Hetalia fanart, just because I was basically the only person she knew that uttered the word anime on purpose.

Let me tell you, somehow getting trapped in a conversation with a person intent on talking to you all about their shitty fanart is unpleasant.

Oh, so not very different from my experience with the girl I mentioned, since what I mentioned was when I had the misfortune of having to sit out some school field trip or something along those lines due to an injury and she kind of didn't want to participate, so she instead talked at me about all sorts of proto-tumblr type garbage, as well as a bunch of ideas for comics she would totally actually draw and would be a total hit you guys, and they were 100% unoriginal monkey-cheese-random type trash. I wonder what happened with her after that, I kind of avoided her after that and haven't heard of her since.

I also remembered another crazy teenager I met once when some other high schoolers came to our school for a debate, each person participating in a debate had to pair up with a person they were going to be against, so me and my friends took all our debate partners to the school petting zoo, mostly because our school had a petting zoo, and the girl I was partnered with, at some point mumbled "Kawaii" under her breath at the adorable animals, and I made the mistake of acknowledging what she said. That terrible  decision resulted in me being dragged into a conversation about how she's going to study Japanese, because she's a huuuuuuuuge fan of Naruto and how great Japanese culture is. When I managed to get her to stop talking about anime, she started talking about how the fact that she's so good at school is because she's an indigo child and how deja vu is actually precognition, and how Astrology can be really important and helpful and other hippy garbage until we got back to class and we had the debates. I have never been happier winning a debate.

This is in far retrospect, but I once went out with a girl and she started to tell me about the "Yaoi" fanfic community she was running and proceeded to then explain what "Yaoi", "Shota" and "Futa" were. She even offered to show me her picture collection, which if I remember correctly consisted mostly of extremely graphic homosexual sex between two characters from whichever FInal Fantasy game.
Now it might not sound that extreme, but it was the first time I was ever exposed to that side of Anime, and then came the scariest part when she told me that her mother was also a fan and that they moderated the community together.

This somehow reminded me of a rather unrelated story. A friend of mine's grandmother was a holocaust survivor and her last few years suffered from alzheimer which was mostly terrible, but at one point he recalls she noticed the number tatood on her arm, had no recollection of what it was, and kept trying to CALL IT on the phone.
It was a sad story altogether, but he said that part had him and his family bawling with laughter for some reason.

It's a good Stormfront thread if you merely get really annoyed by it. Although it's amusing to read their threads about black people and see what new slurs they can invent. They are pretty creative, I'll give them that, some even go into Swahili. You can't just say "a horde of rampaging simians" on 2015 Stormfront, your race buddies will think less of you.

BUT WHO FUCKING CARES BECAUSE I DON’T JUST HAVE UNIPOLAR DEPRESSION OR ANXIETY OR SOMETHING THAT CAN BE FIXED WITH PILLS AND A POSITIVE ATTITUDE AND WHATEVER MAGICAL UNICORN THERAPISTS WORK FOR PEOPLE

The fact that he is officially insisting his very real dissociation is because of being a multiple is what scares me the most about this. I wish I could fucking talk some sense into him, ESPECIALLY since he used to be very specific about taking responsibility for how he'd behaved when dissociating (like if people tried to badmouth his girlfriend for breaking up with him he'd say "how dare you talk bad about her I treated her like shit and she has every right to break all association with me for what I did even if I didn't remember how I acted, even if I talk about how sad I am about breaking up it's not a cue to go harass her because I am the one at fault here"), but I know there's literally no way I could say anything and not have him write it off as ableist multiple-phobia and shut himself in even more.

Some years ago, I found myself really needing a new place to live. I knew someone who knew someone who needed a housemate. Basically, because I was not in the position to be picky, I accepted it without too many questions. My housemates were an annoying pothead hippie her 7 year old, and a furry. Not just any furry, mind you, but the head of some sort of local furry chapter. He was significantly overweight, bull-necked, bullet-headed, and extremely unattractive - like algae on the gene pool unattractive. So ya, basically the worst stereotype. Given that we shared a house, I tried very hard to be nice to this person and I wasn't interested in making him feel judged or shitty about himself - even though I don't fucking understand the furry thing to save my life. Here's what living with the ultimate furry stereotype was like:

- He'd invite hoards (packs, flocks, gaggles...?) of his gender-ambiguous, socially awkward, and sometimes downright creepy friends over for furry barbecues. It was a great people watching experience. I'm sure the old, Mormon neighbor lady though so, too.

- Leave his ENORMOUS  - like where the hell did he find them this big?! - condoms in the toilet after having selfy-selfy time in his bedroom. Apparently, he preferred his butt toys to be generously sized.

- Smoke pot all day and then complain that he smoked pot all day.

- Wear satyr-leg costume while lounging about the house, all while letting his enormous, bulbous, hairy belly (and back) hang out for everyone to see. \

- The never cleaning anything and eating everyone's food probably goes without saying.

- And perhaps the most upsetting for me personally: I had just washed my face in the bathroom before bed and I picked up the hand towel on the rack beside the sink. I used it ON MY FACE before realizing it had been used to mop up my furry housemate's body hair after he had shaved himself...everywhere.  My face was COVERED in his back, chest, and pubic hair. There are no words to describe my horror.

Most of the money on my mom's side of my family comes from the business that my grandma's brother started. This is a thing that I have known my entire life. I remember as a kid asking my mom what her brother's job is, and she told me he works for her uncle's company, and I asked what it was, and she said they sold toys. I accepted this, lost interest in the topic, and never brought it up again. Well, today I just found out from my brother that it's a multinational, award-winning sex toy manufacturer. They sell dildos, monster cock beads, strap-ons, etc, but their award-winning product is their full-size sex dolls modeled after real living female porn stars. They recently released a line of artificial ass/pussy combos modeled after Farrah Abraham from MTV's Teen Mom. There is a video on the "about our company" page with my mom's cousin in it only a few moments after showing how they make the molds for the artificial vaginas, and I'm going to throw up

Literally everything about this is amazing.

(I once sat behind someone reading harry potter/naruto crossover fanfiction on the bus but that's not nearly as wild or shameful as someone reading anthro household/everyday objects comics on the bus)

EDIT: important question: are they tiny women or regular-sized women? because tiny women representing objects is certainly weird and gross but regular-sized women representing objects is WAY creepier.

Also I don't know the context but even the one female character in this world who isn't an object is calling this dude "master" so I can only assume he's going to fuck her at some point. Which is just great because she looks like she's 12! Nice. You were really, really not kidding about double incognito. I feel dirty.

Oh never mind what am I saying, of course she's an object! She's like his smartphone. I'm guessing he's still going to have sex with her though

Seriously, what part of this is supposed to be sexy? Even the main character just seems to be bored with all these women/objects. You'd think in a comic like this at least one character would get some sort of pleasure out of it, but he seems just about ready to commit suicide, which is not such a bad idea considering the world he lives in. Oh, and he does fuck one of the girls and calls it "masturbating with a love doll", so that's lovely. It's not the most fucked up thing I've seen, but it takes the cake for shear dull, joyless monotony in a crazy sex comic.

I've seen some stuff on Reddit from guys who seem to get off on the fantasy of a world where women are literal sex objects. It seems to be a sort of fucked up sexist dominance kind of thing, like "ah yes, just as I thought. Women exist only for me to put my boner in them, and the fact that these women seem to have just sadly accepted it means that I'm right! My dick is so big! I'm the best, woohoo!!" I guess the men being disinterested is just to reinforce the fact that in this fantasy world, it's completely 100% normal that women's bodies are sex objects. And the women all look uncomfortable because anyone who's turned on by this clearly hates women and gets off on the idea of women being naked and miserable. That's about as much sense as I can make of it

I've seen some stuff on Reddit from guys who seem to get off on the fantasy of a world where women are literal sex objects. It seems to be a sort of fucked up sexist dominance kind of thing, like "ah yes, just as I thought. Women exist only for me to put my boner in them, and the fact that these women seem to have just sadly accepted it means that I'm right! My dick is so big! I'm the best, woohoo!!" I guess the men being disinterested is just to reinforce the fact that in this fantasy world, it's completely 100% normal that women's bodies are sex objects. And the women all look uncomfortable because anyone who's turned on by this clearly hates women and gets off on the idea of women being naked and miserable. That's about as much sense as I can make of it

Not that I'm a fan of this comic, but people who try to project fetishes onto a person's social attitutes have always irked me. It's such a Tumblrish thing to do. You are overthinking it. Someone can be into BDSM or pet play and still treat women with dignity outside the bedroom.

I could go on a long rant how I doubt anyone who thinks using a distressed woman as a urinal is erotic is also not likely to be a great supporter of feminism, but I'm just going to leave it at that and say that on this topic we'll just have to agree to disagree.  For this to be funny to me it would have to show the people in the comic actually enjoying themselves. This is depressing at best.

Don't get me wrong, I do agree with that. This comic specifically though feels extreme to the point that I don't think you can reasonably look at it and say "well, just because someone's into this sexually doesn't necessarily mean..." I think when you're jerking off to sobbing women being used as trash receptacles you've gone past the point of "not necessarily"

There's also the part where the phone-lady asks him why he doesn't have a girlfriend. Which implies there are women in this hellish world who don't have their orifices used to sort recyclables, or their cervix used as a keyhole. Think about that for a sec.
Also, remember that someone was reading this in public. I honestly think that people who have an interest in this goes beyond hate of women, but a hate of everyone who isn't them. This is like Patrick Bateman's wet dream.

I like this kind of garbage from an absurdist perspective, I just find stuff like human fuck furniture, or extreme body inflation or whatever fetishists think of next, totally hilarious while only slightly harmful to people who like them, since all these things are so irreconcilable with reality, and as a result just stay within the realms of crazy hentai. It's just F-List levels of disconnection from reality.

This might be a sign that I'm broken more than anything.

Oh my god a few weeks ago a guy at work asked me if I believe aliens exist and I said I do (meaning yes, it seems unlikely that earth would be the only place in the entire universe that has life on it, so I can't imagine there wouldn't be life on another planet somewhere) and he then started to tell me about how ancient civilizations were shaped by the alien life that visited our planet thousands of years ago. He brought up a story about a guy building a structure out of massive stones singlehandedly using alien technology and I thought it sounded familiar, now I'm listening to "The Search for Terrestrial Intelligence" and a guy on this forum talks about the same fucking story. Now it's going to be even harder for me to take him seriously whenever he brings up his paranormal/alien/conspiracy stuff. Sheesh.

I just found out that the girl I sit right next to in my office believes, amongst other things, that the world trade centre was an inside job, "big pharma" has a cure for cancer but doesn't give it to anyone because they'd lose money, and that the government is run by secret shadowy families behind closed doors. Add to that that they think that black people in the US create their own problem and society is not at all to blame and you have a really fun experience.

Today I learned that the "Vampire Guy" at my office actually managed to, some fucking how, be the model for the photo of a member of his favorite clan in some new edition of a VTM book. Then he left the book on the kitchen counter for everyone to flip through.

So naturally I check his facebook page and found a photo of him with Anne Rice at this event (http://www.arvlfc.com/ball.html), the website for which I think Lemon would appreciate.

It is pretty common, yeah. I'm not positive on this but I'm pretty sure it was started by a friend of mine, his nickname on tumblr is Ganon so he was asking everyone to tag certain types of posts "#ganon don't look". It kind of became a stupid meme for a while, because there was kind of an overlap with my circle of friends and some fairly well-known people in the whole Nerdfighter youtube community. Those people would tag their posts #ganon don't look, and all their internet fans would have no idea what that meant, they started getting messages saying "who's ganon and why can't he look?" and a meme was born. I'm pretty sure that's how it started spreading.

Man I haven't thought about this shit in years. I'm not going to name names but almost every single one of those Internet Famous people I knew turned out to be creeps who would send nudes to underage girl fans and/or try to get nudes from them.

when i was on tumblr it was really common. i tagged for close friends when i remembered to, but some of the people i followed were really meticulous about it. in some cases i think it's just another vehicle for sympathy bait or expressing how special and damaged the person is. it seemed to me like a lot of the things people wanted tagged rarely came up in posts. the above example - father stuff and bees maybe, but termite mounds?

I moderate on a tumblr blog that posts art of monsters, which I will not be linking to or naming for specific reasons. Occasionally I make posts saying the queue is getting low and that if people could send submissions, it would make stuff easier.

One of the last times I did this, someone sent me a note saying "hey do you consider anthro vehicles monsters, because this artist has a lot of that, maybe you could post their work? (several links)"

I spent a minute staring at it before I sent a very polite reply saying that I didn't think it would fit the blog but thank you for the submission, because I both did not want to post those to the blog but also did not want to fuck with someone who had casually suggested I post anthro vehicle art.

             I have an acquaintance who has traveled down the "INTERNET PERSON" path in the weirdest way. It started on a small forum on Kevin Smith's old site (however, it was Kevin Smith's in name only. He hosted his podcast there, and most people on the forum hated him, and were there to discuss other content on the site.) There he met a crazy woman, and they started dating in the most internet way possible. Their relationship lasted maybe 6 months, she cheated on him, and they broke up (this was about 4-5 years ago, and he still makes wistful, heartbroken comments to this day.) Then, he became a hardcore brony. He would post pictures of his car covered in MLP stickers, his McDonalds work apron, his OC ponysona, etc. He wouldn't shut up about it. For a while he was a crusader against the people who want to fuck ponies, but he got tired of fighting an unwinnable battle, and migrated to tumblr. There, he grew into a literal Tumblob (he's like 500 pounds,) white knighting any cause he can in a desperate gambit for female attention. Recently, he's discovered the show Stephen Universe, and has become the brony equivalent for that show. As of writing, he's just reblogged a fan comic about the main character (Stephen?) helping a friend who is on her period by watching Netflix with her, and eating snacks. Then someone made an addition to the comic where they fuse together(?) and he remarks on how being a woman is tough.

I also went to school in Savannah, Paula Deen's stomping grounds, so I think there was also sort of a regional reason for her showing that.

(for the record, I never went to her restaurant. My only experience with it was going into the gift shop next to it with my parents, noticing that everyone there was about three times my age, and upon walking out of the store saw a young woman come out of the restaurant and tell her family it was a seven hour wait. Also one time I got trapped next to the restaurant with my bike because a tour bus of elderly women unloaded there and I had to wait until they finished shuffling past because I was literally trapped next to the door. That was all the experience I needed.)

the scene: downtown minneapolis

the time: three in the morning on a friday

the characters: myself, my friend, various drunken men on the sidewalk outside of Barfly

what happened: i stumble out of Barfly on my friend's shoulder and we start our winding way to her car, being heckled pretty much by the block as we go. an incredibly drunken man stops in his tracks and stares at me, boggle-eyed, when my friend and I walk past him. After several seconds of this, he screws up all his courage and bellows, sounding incredibly slurred, at my retreating back:

"NICE... ANKLES!!!"

i whisper to my friend, after a second, "did he just say 'nice ankles?'" after she confirms, we walk faster. the night gets worse as a methhead stops our car at a red light to stare blankly st us, but he was less fplus, so.

Leave downtown minneapolis before three am.

This was before the FPlus existed but, at one sleepover thing when I was 16, my friend spent the entire time trying to get high off of iDoser. It was a two-hour drive each way.

I saw two people, average, chunky, middle aged people being tied on stage with CLING FILM.

The store I work at got remodeled and we hired a bunch of new people. During training, one of them casually mentioned that he's a furry and goes to conventions in a fursuit (but assured me it wasn't a sexual thing at all and that the furry fetishists are a minority in the community). This was prompted by me calling myself a hipster.

He wasn't doing very well at training so my boss told him we wouldn't need him to work on the day of our grand opening. When that day came around, I saw he'd been put back on the schedule and asked why. My boss said he volunteered to be one of the people who would be standing out front in a mascot costume. I said "I guess he would, huh" and he asked what I meant by that. I don't think I've ever awkwardly backpedaled so hard in my life. "What? I don't know. What did I mean by what? I don't know. I'm like half asleep right now. WELL BACK TO WORK"

I later found out that he was regular caller on Coast to Coast AM and they had limited him to 1-call per week, because they were tired of dealing with him. I'm not sure what he's up to these days, but I like to think that he's walking around in an ill-fitting femskin that smells of cat piss.

So I was browsing a journal RP gossip blog, and a new game is advertised. People poke around and discover some amazing things which include:

The mod is both otherkin and a multiple system.
She's a self-diagnosed schizophrenic who has no idea what schizophrenia actually is.
She believes that otherkin/multiples are oppressed on the same level as LGBTQ people and people who are actually mentally ill.
Her pronouns are "vae/vaer."
She describes herself as a "polyamorous, skolioromantic grey-asexual"
She's also "nonhuman (kin of a beehive, mostly. other shit in the link)"
Said "other shit" includes a fucking dwarf planet. (Eris, specifically) Which leads to this gem in her list of triggers:

#pluto - this isnt really a trigger so much as the amount of attention pluto receives vs other dwarf planets sends me into an impotent uncontrollable rage so like. id appreciate it

This chick is at least a half-dozen F+ episodes all by herself.

There is a man in front of me right now at the bus stop who is giving an amazing shitty liberal train of thought to a poor commuter. He just said citizens could get together and buy all the oil, and that would force green energy to happen, but "the banks would never allow it." Then he transferred to how black lives matter needed to be an "even more serious movement than the occupy movement" and talked about how Ben Carson would join them if he was good. Then he said that our nation is violent, and the proof is that our two most important sports are violent, football and hockey. This was in about 2 minutes.

AN ACTUAL ADULT BABY DIAPER LOVER AD HANGING AROUND ON THE BULLETIN BOARD IN PLAIN VIEW

The ad, summarized from its wordy one page:

"Hi, I'm a college student. I'm female, love video games, and I also like pretending to be an adult baby and to wear diapers! If y'all are into that too, hook me up! Hashtag ABDL."

I almost took a picture of it. I should have, I know, but it was ten in the morning and I was afraid of 'being the guy who responded to the ABDL flyer in our building'.

Putting this here for lack of a more general thing, I'm watching a documentary about being a man in the UK now, expecting things about being gay and body image and stuff, and there's a segment on MRAs. Who should turn up but Roosh V,  doing a speech.

The presenter goes in thinking it'll just be put stuff and is sitting there being shouted out about how society thinks he's a rapist and women just arent taught to be subservient any more, which of course is wrong.

And now milo yiannopolis is talking about how all here young guys are just worried about their pensions.

Edit: oh apparently it's a series and this is the MRA episode.

I once came across a site called Best Gore. It was basically a gigantic collection of real life gore. Like, heads crushed and people impaled by spears and stuff. The site owner hated woman and denied the Holocaust. I don't know how much worse it gets because I left the site when I realized most of the commenters agreed with him (although I would bet money he was deleting comments).

Years ago, there was a girl a few grades younger than me that was so into horses she acted like one. She would gallop around the place and neigh in casual conversation. One day a teacher looked through her notebook and, surprise, found creepy art. I don't know what happened to her after that.

I was once part of a forum centered around a let's player called josefvstalin, a Canadian who really likes Stalin and thinks he's great and did a lot of good things for Russia. I don't know if he thinks Stalin wasn't as bad as people make him out to be or if he thinks his actions were all for the best or what, because he didn't really go into except on videos that were specifically meant to explain his position. The forum is down now but he still has a Youtube channel, which I stopped following a long time ago.

Aside from that, my eighth grade Geometry teacher was really into Chuck Norris jokes, but I don't think that's a really F plus thing.

I participated in a Half-Life related forum and we had Half-dude grace us with his presence for a while. Details are hazy, but at first he was just an inconspicuous poster (half-life, half-dude, haha funny name and all that). He posted some tame deviantArt drawings of an anthropomorphic GLaDOS from Portal and I really don't know, it might've been somebody looking at his other pictures on dA or a different incident, but inevitably car-fuckin' became the topic of conversation. Following people (expectedly) laughing him off, he revved up his fetishism and started tantruming for, like, a week.

Half-dude kept spite-posting his hot car drawings, trying to shock us with descriptions of how perverted he actually was (!), going "yeah, well I have two Audis and I actually fuck 'em in real life too, what do you have to say about that?" and generally kept upping the ante with a smug sense of superiority and contempt for anyone who dared consider him weird. I did not pay attention to the entirety of his meltdown, but his ban was well-deserved and he is still fondly remembered.

When I heard the car fucking episode for the first time and it came to the point where Lemon uttered the name "Half-dude" I froze as the memories of his slutty cars with bedroom eyes all came rushing back. It was the biggest "What? Noo! I know what follows next!" moment I've had while listening to the F+ and it was the most unexpected subject as well.

The more I pretend that he doesn't exist, and that one of those rallies wasn't about to take place mere blocks from where I live, the better the odds that he may not actually exist at all.

That sounds amazingly uncomfortable. Wearing two layers of clothing is bad enough sometimes, but wearing basically a carpet and a gown has got to be the worst ever, AND everyone's staring at you. For everyone else, it's uncomfortable because someone's wearing a fursuit at graduation. The most embarrassing part about it would be the fact that your name is going to be read out loud to all of your friends, peers, family, and strangers, and you have to go up while you're wearing a fucking fursuit because you make shitty life choices. All that combined and you're now the town joke for the next few years, can't go home for the summer without a disguise, and you can't ever go to school reunions without someone bringing it up.

Had a friend (we'll call him SadClown) who was super nice and was dating another friend (we'll call Janice), but as things went along trickles of clopping obsession and a loli fetish started to leak through. I was ready to cut him off right there but my business partner said he had in roads into the local anime community so I tried really hard not to burn that bridge. After failing to organize an anime convention, which SadClown refused to allow us to promote our anime parody at, he descended further into a loli, pony, and body pillow hole, irking Janice. Then things went nuclear. Janice had gone through a difficult time with breast cancer and had received implants. Soon this SadClown began to prefer the company of his body pillows and figurines even going as far as taking up a waifu. When confronted about it he said he didn't think of Janice as a woman anymore after her surgery and dumped her in an unpleasant fashion. Mind you the relationship had lasted nearly a decade and he managed to stand by her during her battle with cancer but he let his waifu come between them. He ended up moving out to the west coast and some further creepiness ensued.

I could also go on with stories about some Alt conservative paranoids that I meet at my job as a security guard.

There isn't much else to the story. He had a wife and kids before dating Janice who live on the west coast. He also had a long distance GF who probably wasn't real but her facebook profile pick definitely looked Japanese. He figured for some reason it would be cool to move out there, with no plans for a job, ensconce himself in creepy loli bullshit, date some Asian woman who was probably an secret Asian dude, and try and reconnect with his daughters. Last I heard his ex-wife filed a restraining order or something against him. I haven't cared to keep up since.

My encounter with the internet invading real life happened during my college psych 101 course. My Professor was Dr. Patrick Edwards. At the beginning of our course he said that he was currently in the middle of an ongoing study. He wouldn't reveal what it was until after we were done with the syllabus, but he did say its focus may shock us. "Pffftt" I thought, "I've listened to the adult baby episode a dozen times, nothing can shock me". Once we were done with the syllabus, Dr. Edwards went on to introduce himself. He went through his military career, his work as a psychiatrist, his movement towards teaching. Then finally he got to his study. He said that he had first found out about this when his son told him. You see, his son had a particular "interest", one that he confided into his father. When Dr. Edwards first heard what his son said he was shocked. Why would my son be interested in that? He then went to his computer, he said "This was his interest.", and when I saw what was being projected onto our classroom whiteboard, I was shocked. It was My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. Dr. Edwards had a brony son, and he wanted to understand why an adult man would be interested in My Little Pony. So he got a few colleagues and got to work on "The Brony Study". For the rest of the semester he would continue to reference his study and even have our class take a survey. Dr. Edwards ended up being my favorite professor in that semester, and I even found his study's website. I'll post it here for those of you interested in their results. http://www.bronystudy.com
And here's his personal blog, where you can see him drawn as a pony. http://bronystudy.com/bronymeetupadmingroup/

But how could cuddle party people have boundary issues?? They talk constantly about boundaries, so clearly there can't be any problems there.

Anyway, my mom had mentioned a few times that she wanted me to meet the daughter of one of her friends, saying that we've got a lot of the same interests and would probably get along. Once I met her, we ended up talking about My Immortal and Legolas By Laura, so now I guess I have a new "Weird Internet" Friend!

I have a friend with fairly questionable tastes. She's someone who was like a sister to me growing up, so it puts me in the difficult position of "I don't want to cut you out of my life but I'm tired of hearing about your dd/lg relationship, how much you want your daddy's 'yummy cummies,' and about your various furry fetishes." She has no filter.

Back before I had realized just how far down the fetish smorgasbord rabbit hole she had fallen, she took it upon herself to introduce a single friend of her then-boyfriend's to me, and I--with a bit of apprehension I couldn't explain at the time, but ultimately shrugged away as my being silly--agreed.

His name was Draven. He wore a top hat, a hot topic trenchcoat, and walked with one of those shitty canes you get at Spencer's. The kind with the dragon heads on top? Grabbed my hand awkwardly and kissed it messily. Refused to let it go.

"Tell me about yourself," he demanded. He spoke with an odd affected accent I couldn't even describe, and was never consistent.

I told him I was 19 and in college. And, without prompting, he interrupted me with an "I'm 33. Did [friend's name] tell you about our coven? You have a wonderful energy and I'd love for you to join us."

Yes. Eight years ago, I met a Real Vampire at a nightclub.

He followed me around for the next hour, making awkward small talk, and word-vomiting information about his "diet" and other such "I'm totally a vampire Avian look at all this vampire information I have about vampires!!" things before I managed to duck into a bathroom and hide out there for a bit. It was then that my presumably well-meaning friend gave him my phone number.

For the roughly three months it took him to finally understand that I wanted nothing to do with him, he constantly texted me and called me at odd hours. "No you don't understand!! I have to call you around 2-3am that's when I wake up!!!!"

Also he slept with a knife under his pillow and liked to talk about that a lot.

Part of growing up is changing your boundaries and enforcing them. If you've explained to her that her fetish is objectively gross, she needs to be able to filter herself in order to exist politely in public, and you don't want to join her coven to the exclusion of all other social contact, and she can't respect that and ease the fuck off, it's not you that's betraying your relationship, it's her. You're holding onto something because of what she once meant to you, and that's okay. But ultimately it's your choice whether that means she's still in your life as a gross kinkster or someone from your past who was like a sister to you.

PS: anyone who introduces a 33-year-old to a teenager as a romantic prospect is fucked up in the head. That's incredibly uncool, even if it sounds like Draven was a teenager emotionally.

Thank you for that. Really.

You're right. I've mostly managed to cut our relationship down to "I know you're still alive because I see you posting on facebook" since she moved out of state a few years ago, so she's not nearly as much of a presence in my life as she once was.

Yeah, it was really gross and I definitely sat her down and explained to her why I thought it was fucked up. But this is the same girl that jumped on a plane when she was 18 to move in with a 40something y/o guy she'd only talked to on a kink forum, so it kinda just ended at "well Avian I understand that it's not what you're into. I thought you would be. Sorry"

"Fucked up in the head" is, frankly, a little too polite for the way she thinks about this sort-of shit

A close friend of mine came out to me as a furry and honestly I'm just thrilled she's not Otherkin.

After looking around ballpit I have found this is where my latest tale goes.

I just got home from LA a few hours ago.  I went to take my mom and sister out to dinner for my mom's birthday.  Over dinner my wife's well being came up (anxiety/depression) and my sister started to go on a crystal rant.  I decided to pay it no mind since she is in her early 20s, may have allegedly used pot, and is that weird crossroads of christian/music student.
I did however say, at least you aren't trying to preach orgonite. 

Strap in

Dinner then became a discussion as to why she thinks the greys may be behind the chemtrails.  The orgonite and the crystals don't just help with the healing, they are part of the protection plan against the chemtrails and high frequency electro magnetic waves.  The greys and the shapeshifters were working in collusion and there was no way of knowing how deep their reach really goes. There was more, but I think that summary illustrates my point.

My little sister is an F+ subject...

My sister doesn't have severe mental health issues.  She isn't dumb as a rock.  What she is though is somebody that got into religion early in life to seek solace with problems of not fitting in, and then later in life started dating an actual nice, respectful, older guy that I didn't want to punch in the throat.  He was a nice kid.  He was also a music student and had worked in production.  They worked really well together and motivated each other for a while. He had MAJOR mental problems though.  They ended up in a codependent relationship for years where she postponed her school/career plans to try and assist in his mental health and overall well being.  She ended up catching a bit of his crazy.   Probably more than just a bit.  After they broke up, some of this stuff just stuck I guess.  It sounds like any other stoned rant I've heard from people talking about the illuminati, album covers, etc.  She may have just thought that was what people think when they are woke (gag).

 I may be a glorified workout caddy, but I know at least a thimble full of science.  I then started to refute her nonsense. In order to show her how nuts she sounded, I showed her and my mom the video of the lady spraying vinegar at the "chemtrails" suggested in the Infowars episode.  She ending up laughing and not taking any offense to any of my hare brained logic.  Later when I was leaving my mom thanked me for trying to straighten her out a bit.  She was tired of hearing this crap but didn't know how to go about ceasing the horror.

Long ass day.  Made it back to San Diego and had to share this while it was still semi fresh in my head.

I sorta dipped my toes in crazy at that age, but never went full chemtrails crazy. I did have a friend that would spend most of hey paycheck on crystals and would do everything the Earth Goddess told her to do in get dreams. Which apparently was why she tried to sleep with my then boyfriend.

There's a girl in one of my classes who's brought in Fred™ water twice. I've never seen them in local stores so I have no clue where she gets them.

There's a student at the school I work at who claims she is a multiple system, and has to be watched at all times now, because she threatened a student's life while "the other personality" fronted.

When relistening to the Offbeat Brides episode, I was caught by one of the grooms being a 'GIS mapping wizard' named Garret. Because I now work in GIS, and just after I joined, a man named Garret left. I never met him, but what I've heard about him seemed to suggest he may be the type to describe himself as a 'mapping wizard'.

Mercifully he was Australian and the one in the Offbeat Brides episode was from Portland, so it wasn't him. But I'm pretty sure I did see that Garrett posting on a GIS discussion board.

Don't know if this counts but last night at my fossil club meeting a retired forensic anthropologist with no prompting at all cornered me to tell me alllll about how one of the victims of the 1980 Mt. St. Helens eruption died despite my attempts to exit the conversation

NSFW content. Click to show.

I really did not need to know that

Maybe he was in the spectrum but my attempts at 'oh HEY how about them fossil crabs?!!' weren't exactly subtle

If you mean the spectrum of "old man who loves telling stories to gross stories to yuck people out on purpose", then yes. That's my kind of spectrum. I'm working my way up there right now.

Hey, did you know the victims of Vesuvius look like they're frozen in place because the heat wave was so strong their muscles contracted and paralyzed them, leaving them to burn to- oh where did I leave my glasses.

So I learned today that there's a person in the other group of my mechanics program that is a furry Nazi. A few of the people I know in the other group who share class with him said he always wears a dog collar. Had a quick look at his Facebook page, and it was awash with furry stuff. One of the things he follows on Facebook is called the Furred Reich. I saw him later today, and yup as clear as day there was the dog collar. It's funny I've never noticed it before, but then again I've never really interacted with him. Not too sure if he's going to have a long career in aircraft maintenance.

I have heard someone talk in a way that was uncomfortably reminiscent of the cuddle party episode.

ETA: I've also mentioned the smelly brony white supremacist PhD student to some people on here, but not to the entire forum, I think. He is a terrible fucking person who is the stalking assistant for a domestic abuser. The worst part of last semester was having him in the same class (the class was good, otherwise). For our last class, we met at a restaurant and he ranted about how Anita Sarkeesian is the worst person in the world and how Vice News sucks for disrespecting his white supremacist pals. I wanted to throw my fucking drink at him so bad.

A co-worker that I've mentioned in this thread before was so excited about the Nintendo Switch event that he stayed up all night and started messaging co-workers about it at 6:30 AM. He is 37 and the most recent console he owns is a PS2, so I doubt he'll even buy one. I also think there's a chance that he might be a pay pig or at least an unintentional one.

I'm lucky that my life is boring, but a recent article on the BBC website about people watching porn in public reminded me of the time when I was sitting next to a guy who was writing erotic Kingdom Hearts fanfiction

I went to the college library to print off a lab report, and since I had time to kill before class, I decided to just browse the internet. 5 minutes later, a nerdy chap takes a seat at the computer next to me and I can see him in the corner of my eye open up a word document and start typing. Now, the library computers were set up within a wavey wall in such a way so that two computers would be side by side, and two people using them could easily see what was on the other screen. I quickly glanced to see what this guy was woking on. A psychology report? An english essay?

Nope. Dude was writing a story where a teenage chick was getting spit-roasted by her two friends. A poorly written one.

At that point I casually logged out the computer, gathered my stuff and managed to get outside before I started laughing and texting my friend about it. There's a time and a place, dude.

One of my friends receives regular messages in google-translated languages from a post-op transexual who formerly went to primary school with him. This guy managed to get a restraining order at the ripe old age of 12 from stalking some girl and waiting outside her door for hours.
