The last on the topic.
May. 21st, 2007 08:32 am[ETA] I log ALL IPs that hit my journal, be it the user info page, or individual posts. It's for a benign reason (tracking actual hit counts, tracking spam), but let me state clearly: THE PEOPLE WHO ACCUSE ME OF BULLYING (and who constantly wave the flag of "don't like it? Don't read it.") read my journal. I have the IP proof. Let that serve as a "warning" for those who don't want to be associated with me. :)
I am not a bully. [shakes jowls like Nixon] I am getting really sick and tired of whiny people claiming that women with opinions are bullies. IT IS NOT BULLYING TO STATE AN OPINION ON THINGS, and shame on you who would try and get people to think that way.
Shame on you. For being weak enough to cower behind others and go with the flow. Shame on you for turning something horrible (say, oh, let me just pull something out of the air.... RAPE.) into something as casual as a comment about a hobby you enjoy. I think I'll turn the word rape into something meaningless: when I get into my car, I rape it. I'm going to rape the milk into the fridge. I raped my knee when I conked it on the table leg. Or maybe NOT. As a person that was actually raped, FUCK YOU. Oh, but first I was kidnapped, bound, almost taken out of the country, then raped. But because I am a strong woman (or is that a bully? I can't remember which) I beat the ever-loving shit out of my attacker when he was finished. I then took his wallet and got me a ticket home. Then I got to face my female boss who looked disapprovingly at me and said WITH NO IRONY: "You seem to have a lot of drama in your life. This needs to change if you're going to continue working here."
*sucks teeth*
I've been slowly defriended over the past few days by people who obviously feel that I'm a bully. Go right on ahead and get with your getting. Hell, anyone on the fence about me? Move along, you won't hurt my feelings, and maybe we'll both heave a sigh of relief. Jesus fucking Christ, we are talking about stories of Angel being made out of moss and bark and growing a dick for Spike. Because my eyes pop out of my head and I boggle at that being LAUDED, I'm a fucking bully? Ahahahahahaha!
Here's my final thought: you're embarrassed about being caught on the side of the Angel rape Willow with soap/Angel is a bark man and maybe has tentacles/a mildly retarded boxer Angel wants to fuck a crippled Spike/(seahorses? Were there seahorses, or was that a crack!fic I wrote? Huh)/fic and you have to defend it, so you call out the people who don't happen to like something (and again: OPINIONS. Stated in their own journals) as being mean and horrible. <-- actual word used. I could be wrong. Feel free to (continue) to mention in your own world how wrong I am. I really couldn't care less, my life isn't changed by people not liking me on the fucking INTERNET.
But people who continue to demean women for HAVING OPINIONS and the STRENGTH TO STATE THEM are in the wrong. Period. And if you think it's not a big deal to devalue those who have been raped? YOU ARE WRONG. Shame on you. Joss says so. And I love Lynne.
THE END. (from me. Never again will I address this foolishness.)

Date: 2007-05-21 02:03 pm (UTC)So I can see every morning who has hit my journal. And they read. They click. I love the "don't like it, don't read it!" mindset not applying to them. (Unless, as I mentioned to Dovil, I'm to assume they LIKE my journal? They just don't want to admit it?)
I'm sticking with my normal blogging. Jesus we're talking about BLOGGING, you know? Get thicker skin, people. It's freaking BINARY.

I'm sorry about that. I think you have a pretty intelligent journal actually:)

Date: 2007-05-21 02:08 pm (UTC)I say go on and with my blessing. Don't like me? DON'T READ ME. It's simple. (Unless they love to read it, so *shrug*)
Yeah - I was 19, it was a jilted lover, too. I'm small, but wiry. :D
You haven't friended me because I AM EVIL. :D *squish*

Date: 2007-05-21 02:17 pm (UTC)You know damn well these same people wouldn't be getting up in arms if anyone offered an opinion that the fic of Fanbrat XYZ on ff.net was out of character. What about if someone voices the opinion that Season 7 of BtVS wasn't their favorite? Are they bullying Joss?
And I'm saying this as someone who wibbles and goes "OMG, did I have any weeping cocks in my fic?" whenever someone says "OMG I hate weeping cocks!" But the last thing I'd ever do would be to demand that no one express opinions on writing because my delicate flowerness might be wilted. (I just, you know, take pills for that. It's my personal problem, not anyone else's.)

Date: 2007-05-21 02:17 pm (UTC)I just looked at that friended/unfriended listing page and only *one* person has unfriended. Which could possibly mean that none of the rest were *friends*, but honestly, i have a hard time keeping track and remembering.
And *HA*.
I did friend you, so there.
Although the bobbing giraffe head is making me slightly twitchy...

no subject
Date: 2007-05-21 02:24 pm (UTC)"Are they bullying Joss?" Ahahahahahahahaha. YOU ARE SO WONDERFUL. And you know, I personally don't mind the "I hate weeping cocks [insert opinion here]" posts because I can go back through my fics and see if it's something bad, etc. I personally keep some of my older fics on my hard drive to remind me that I used to write OOC fics myself. And then I GOT BETTER. (Let's hope.)
(Oooh, and I've been defriended for critiquing my OWN fics! SERIOUSLY.)
