Fairly original too, or at least I hadn't heard it before. The e-card thing is pretty dumb by itself, but I'll take a badly-formatted joke over passive-aggressive "I'm sorry did my back hurt your knife?" poo poo any day of the week.

This is a man whose fantasy has crossed from the harmless into the criminal. If all he were doing was planting stories on-line, it'd be no problem. But defrauding the people who wanted to believe in him was a calculated move. Fantastic work by Sneed.

Someone else replied with this gif Its a pretty weird gif because someone felt the need to talk about slow clapping on a video when people never slow clap in real life. And also we're meant to call it slow clapping it out now. What are we clapping out? Our satisfaction at a bit of social justice having been achieved? Is our righteous smugness oozing out of our bodies as we slowly bring our hands together?

While the second one is complete bullshit (With a special note for "Lemme tell you I've got huge boobs and like to show them" and "this girl 'sexually assaults' my boyfriend, let's make sure to point out he's Korean and not Japanese"), I could more or less see the first happen. Creepy guy being much to friendly with shy girl isn't really out of the realm of the possible. I guess it's not a real accurate retelling but it seems kinda... possible.

Having no clue what Kawaii meant :wikipedia posted:Kawaii (かわいい [kaw͍aiꜜi], "lovable", "cute", or "adorable"[1]) is the quality of cuteness in the context of Japanese culture.[2][3][4] It has become a prominent aspect of Japanese popular culture, entertainment, clothing, food, toys, personal appearance, behavior, and mannerisms.[5] The noun is kawaisa (可愛さ?), literally, "lovability", "cuteness" or "adorableness". I dunno. I mean a girl in a maid outfit with cat ears is probably the wet dream of some of those guys.

Having been to a few cosplay parties and whatnot back in the day, it isn't really. I wish it was, but it is not. Maybe not something that happens every day, or with every dude, but definitely not something I immediately question. Second story is a bit more stretch-y though, but it still feels more like embellished real story than pure fabrication.

The kawaii bit, maybe, but the "carrying off" sounds like utter bs because at any con you would be thrown out as soon as the person reported you to security, or perhaps even arrested. It's more likely she meets creepy dude, he creeps on her, he trys to chat her up and asks her to come meet his friends, she probably does because she's a wet blanket, and stands around feeling uncomfortable. Too-long hugs are definitely A Thing if you're daft enough to allow people to hug you (as I have unfortunately been in the past, out of politeness). In convention poo poo that did happen, last con I was at (the other week), they caught two people, on seperate occasions, jacking off in the art show. Now that was definitely new to me.

The kawaii bit, maybe, but the "carrying off" sounds like utter bs because at any con you would be thrown out as soon as the person reported you to security, or perhaps even arrested. Oh, and "allow people to hug you" isn't always A Thing at some conventions. For the first few years of one con near me, they did literally nothing about people who hugged anyone and everyone without consent, unless the other person said "no" first. Yes, you read that right - you had to tell someone you didn't want to be hugged before you even knew they were going to try to hug you, or security would let them off with nothing more than "don't do it again to that person". The big budget cons can be pretty good with security, but even some large ones have really lovely policies that can wind up protecting people who actually commit criminal acts against other con goers. EDIT: If "J-Con" was "JACON", I know a few people who used to staff that convention and quit precisely because the con was out of control and trying to get people ejected could be nearly impossible.

Leopold N.

On the bright side, the STDH is delicious. Silver linings, I guess.... The porn thread is gross (I stopped following it when they started whining that publishers were banning incest and "pseudo-incest" ) but I don't really get the MLM part. They do spend a lot of effort convincing each others that writing creepy stuff is THE BEST THING EVER, but they're not recruiting each others to get affiliate discounts or whatever. I don't think anyway, I'm not checking that thread. Last time I looked, somebody was writing zombie porn.

NoUU posted:I don't know anything about this thread but some of those posts really sound like a guy in a commercial at 3am telling me how I can make easy money. Ugh. I'm someone that participates in that thread. It's around because there was an Ask/Tell thread about it by Delilah Fawkes. Then, because it became less Ask/Tell and more "Teach me how to write smut", it became its own thread. Right now, it's my main source of income. Like anything porn related, if you stick to it, you can make a good amount. Not great, but I'm making a minimum $500/month. It still requires me to do stuff like make covers and actually write stuff. Some of the grosser genres sell more. For instance, monsters sell pretty well, so does "dubious consent" (rape), "pseudo incest" (step siblings, technically, but that's just a disclaimer), lactation, breeding, and basically, all the grosser stuff. It's not romance novel stuff. Any stats like "75k" usually refer to word count, not dollars. So, for instance, right now, my month's word count is somewhere around 15k, but that doesn't mean I made $15,000. It just means I wrote around 15,000 words.
