Doin' it for tha Vine. They just wanna get on TV. 40 years ago it was seeing how many kids you could stuff in a phone booth or a VW Beetle - now it's self-immolation. 6 of one, half a dozen of the other, right?

Stottie Kyek posted:That sounds like the kind of thing newsreaders usually call a "manifesto" after the guy commits some terrible crime. Yeah, he cites Elliot Rodger as having the right idea, but not being "enlightened" enough. gobboboy posted:Shut the thread down, we have a winner. gently caress, this happened to a friend of mine in middle school. Not a dare or challenge, he'd just apparently seen his uncle do the methyl-alcohol trick and didn't understand the difference between that and gasoline (and doused his whole body to show off to friends).

Besesoth posted:Today, on a whim, I read* a blog post of an "incel" (that's "involuntarily celibate" in MRA-speak ). It was twenty-two thousand words - no repetition or copy/pasting, nothing obviously from other sources - that was, functionally, about how he was too awesome for women to sleep with him (the basic syllogism: a. Intelligence and awesomeness are mating signals; b. stupid, non-awesome men developed seduction; c. modern women prefer being seduced; d. I am intelligent; therefore I am too awesome for women to want me). He hates PUAs because they use seduction rather than True Awesomeness, and believes that voting should be restricted to "intelligent men". (Naturally, he'd be a voter.) Good to know that ridiculously long, self-absorbed manifestos are a common trait of incels, not just Elliot Rodger. Unless you were reading Rodger's manifesto which sounds mostly like that. Buying a lottery ticket and claiming someone stole HIS money when his ticket loses, etc

...I always thought that "Incel" was shorthand for "Internet Celebrity", the type of person who always gets lots of responses to social media posts! I guess this explains some of the reactions I get when I am posting about how I am a top Incel.

I'm really despising the entire "flat out making up a news story = satire" thing. Satire requires a bit more than "random thing that never happened". Anyway, I'm a little worried as one of my in-laws is slipping from "having dumb lovely opinions" to "full blown racist psychosis".

I've been seeing this a lot, lately. I'm so sick of people trying to emulate The Onion when they don't actually understand what they do, or are unable/unwilling to provide some decent satire. To their credit, though, the "fire challenge" is kinda alright in that regard.
