Feb. 10th, 2006 10:42 amSomething Awful found me.
I'm sure you've all seen the site before. Only took them ten years to find me. Must be scrapin' pretty hard for their "Awful Link of the Day" these days. They've done the obligatory fat joke, and picked on my nickname, and the fact I have Otherkin pages.
Oh, how upset I am. Watch me cry. *snerk*
Edit: I got worried their traffic would put me over my bandwidth, so I changed some stuff around. Page'll be back to normal when they're done jerking themselves off thinking they're clever little people. Oh, and *LOL* apparently they picked up my site off Portal of Evil dot Com. Totally unoriginal.
Maybe they'll click some Google ads when they're there.

Date: 2006-02-10 05:30 pm (UTC)It doesn't help me, though; I'm paranoid and anxious to begin with. :p I don't like that I've had to shut the site down to keep it from getting blown up, but I had to. I can rationalize most things, I'm intelligent enough to parry away most of their lame 'thrusts', but when that paranoid voice starts talkin' it's better to just turn it all off and let them go away.
I just don't get why they think I'm unaware that I'm fat. I mean, fuck - I have PCOS and Diabetes. One develops the other, and vice versa. Toss in that being fat can cause either disease, and BOTH diseases encourage you to stay fat. It all breaks down to the fact that I'm just fucking fat. That's the reality of it. Mind you...having weighed about 80 pounds more than this, that was FAT. And I didn't enjoy it.
The rest is just puerile. I mean, take "therian", change it to anything - "Otherkin", "Furry", "LARPer", "goth" - and you have the same rotating joke they put up weekly.
Mind you, I'm fairly sure their other targets either do what I did, or get indignant because they're not smart enough to realize that's what SA wants.
I'm vaguely amused by the weak jibe on my nickname, though. I loathe the name "Morgana", however you spell it. I refuse to be associated with "Morgana Le Fay", mostly I think because I utterly loathe the Arthurian myths, and the idiots who think it's all real and historical the way it's written. I really don't get people who are Arthurian pagans, either - it just breaks my head. I think I read too many crappy Arthurian tales in Medieval
Romances 302 back when I was in school as an English major..

I think you look really cute in that picture they used for you btw :).

Date: 2006-02-11 03:42 pm (UTC)What's whore with Arthur? I've been telling different kinds of stories for 6 years now, and I've always loved the Arthurian stuff!

Date: 2006-02-11 04:24 pm (UTC)Why do people fucking assume I don't know how to eat? I live on fucking plain chicken, the occasional bit of starch, and some dairy. Most vegetables are out because they make me violently ill from acid attacks. Ditto on most spices. I can't have much fruit because of the sugar in them. Life as me is not fun when it comes to food. I eat because I have to eat - not because I want to.
I have a spinal injury that makes it harder to go out in winter - if I fall on the copious ice here, I'm in serious trouble. Otherwise, I generally walk 3 kms. about 3-4 times a week. I do take care of myself.
Personally I could care less if people think fat = bad. They're fucking morons. I'm the exact same build as my father. I didn't get a choice. I've been built like a linebacker since I was 3. I heard all these schoolyard insults they're throwing when I was in grade school...so I am forced to assume SA's average reading age is about 8, and move on with my life. I'm 27, married, and have better things to do!
I'm not fond of the Arthurian stuff because it's just a bunch of Romantic bullshit. If you go back and read any of the older stuff, it's all Arthur's an idiot, Gwen is a slut, and Lancelot saves everything. Bleh. I dislike Morgan le Fey because she's supposedly a Christianized watered-down version of my patron goddess The Morrigan. So they make her a bitter, manipulative half-faery 800 years ago...and then every half-baked twinkie "Celtic" pagan decides that Morgan le Fey = The Morrigan and that they're interchangeble. That does not wash with me.
Also, I wish people would stop thinking Merlin ever historically existed.
