I Said No posted:One thing with fishing - if you're up against one of the ones that like to jerk around really violently, when they're having a chill moment don't put the middle of the bar over them. If they're high, put them at the top of the catch zone and if they're low put them at the bottom of it. That way when they move again they have to move through the bar and it gives you a little more time to react. So are you toxxing or what

Lutha Mahtin posted:paradol ex was such a weird poster, and it was always an amazing mental roller coaster when i would read his posts and try to follow his thought process. the first couple threads i came across where he was arguing with someone, it was crazy because he would sometimes go for many posts where it seemed like he was rhetorically building up to a very obvious conclusion, and then he would lurch in a completely different direction that he hadn't hinted at at all. like he'd go on and on about how obama was a terrible candidate who nobody should support, and would crash and burn to clinton/giuliani/mccain, because all of these reasons that sounded like a succession of typical right-wing talking points, and then the conclusion would be like AND IM A SOCIALIST AND IM NOT VOTING or some other off the wall thing that only had a tiny semblance of internally-consistent logic. then he got banned and bought a parachute account. iirc how it happened, he stopped posting his usual talking points, so it wasn't immediately obvious it was him, but he still had kind of the same writing style. so eventually some goon quoted him in a thread saying like "wow this could almost be a pex post lol" to which he angrily responded that it indeed was him and from then on went back to posting about his favorite topics from before. he also made this huge post about trying to come to grips with that one pro wrestler who did the murder-suicide to his family (the wrestler's). "Parasol Ex"= posted:I was trying to go to sleep a few minutes ago and for some reason the enormity of these events finally hit me and I couldn't stop crying. I have no real life friends who give a poo poo about professional wrestling, so this is basically the only place I have to express these feelings, but I really feel the need to express them.

To be fair, noted Trumpkin Boosted_C5 took every Trump toxxer's sins upon him and thus subsequently downgraded the rest of them back to a normal, non-perma ban toxx, with the offer to repudiate for a 30 day probe instead remaining.

So the thread has brought up Spoonful of Bromide a few times - the teen obsessed with a trashy, largely forgotten about Penny Arcade wannabe comic who had a massive meltdown over an SA poster who decided to walk away from drawing his comic after realizing this kid had maaajor issues going on. If you're not familiar, it's linked in SAclopedia. It spawned two pretty entertaining threads. So I remembered that he re-regged a bunch as he eventually found an artist to do some panels, but those posts were generally completely wiped out from the forums, so I did some googling to see if there was any more to the tale. And that was the beginning of staring into the abyss of some absolute crazy that isn't really summed up in one place, but has bits and pieces everywhere and a lot of deleted dead ends. So for anyone interested in this insanity, Spoonful of Bromide isn't one person: it's two. One younger guy called Andy, who I don't think has a huge internet presence by himself, and a guy called Robert Wayne Stiles who absolutely does. The funny thing is someone early in the E/N thread alludes to the poster pretending to be Robert. So near but so far, but nobody really pays attention to the link to this guys ED page which is about as long as War and Peace. So for anyone still interested, Bromide isn't in fact a teenage gender confused poster but in actually the spawn of a batshit insane, drug addicted, poo poo flinging, 30 year old male prostitute who gets trolled so hard, so regularly that he built this second alias of Trey Williams/Liz Davis with his boyfriend to somehow misdirect everyone from all the other nonsense going on in his life. What was genuinely one of the 'greatest sagas of SA' doesn't even get a cursory 2 word mention in the history of this dude. I feel sorry for the lady on here who got caught up this web of loving awfulness.

I'm glad it's not just me who found it a fairly fascinating story. There's a good link here which nailed a lot of it after being emailed by Spoonful and did some digging of their own. They didn't pick up on the 'second poster' theory that came up later and fairly significant but the rest fits. http://www.webcomicpolice.com/2014/12/shredded-moose.html?m=1

So, whatever happened to Doobie's Dog house? When I stopped caring, it was like Groverhaus Business edition. Also, speaking of long dead memes, what the gently caress ever happened to David Caro? I know he got released from Syrian torture prsion, but he hasn't posted here again. How's our probably still absolutely batshit insane war junkie doing?

Bromide also re-regged numerous times and had equally numerous meltdowns/bans in the trans megathread. I just went to try hunting for some choice stuff, and stumbled on this lovely bit of unrelated drama: quote:So just to sum up. Step Aside was a trans woman who detransitioned back to man (and is possibly a sissy fetishist). So by being the IK of the feminism thread, he's a man who has infiltrated a woman's space, which would make him a hypocrite. Is this about right? I'd totally forgotten about that saga that spread across a few threads. Edit: Holy cats, a year after the first meltdown, Bromide comes back to SA (as UniqueLikeMonique) and flips out in BYOB, of all places, about his stupid comic: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3689737&userid=210279 JacquelineDempsey has a new favorite as of 08:06 on Nov 16, 2016 |

It ended exactly how you would expect, Doobie wasn't making money and invented a wild excuse so he wouldn't have to say he failed. The reason given was that his evil landlord had conspired to sell the doghouse property to the town funereal home (which is several blocks away) to be used as a parking lot.

Bromide made frequent appearances in the Terrible Webcomics thread for a while there, and was actually semi-reasonable (whoever it was posting under that handle, I guess) toward the end, if memory serves.

I never got why the gently caress anyone would obsess over Shredded Moose of all loving things. It wasn't just a penny arcade wannabe, it was actively, aggressively edgy and awful. Like half of the jokes were "Ha ha, abortions!". Basically just imagine Oglaf except not funny in any way ever. EDIT: Speaking of awful poo poo has reminded me. Is the Anime That Shall Not Be Named clause still in effect in ADTRW? It always amused me a ton that there was an anime so utterly horrible in its subject matter that even saying its name is a bannable offense. Can't actually remember which anime it was though because there's quite a few that fit the bill.

Based on 2015 factor, I'd imagine that's pretty much just Andy posting as I think he's the one who actually somewhat 'legitimately' tried to put out "Watch Ur Mouth" and it was just Stiles influencing him. He also came back to Tumblr last year it seems, after pretending to be the person who made that Shredded Moose comic. They have so many names and post so much it's genuinely hard to work out who it is, and when. CaptainSarcastic posted:Bromide made frequent appearances in the Terrible Webcomics thread for a while there, and was actually semi-reasonable (whoever it was posting under that handle, I guess) toward the end, if memory serves. The very first post I saw where they talk about SM for the first time is surprisingly coherent and as close to normal as I've ever seen either of them write, too.

Like half of the jokes were "Ha ha, abortions!". Basically just imagine Oglaf except not funny in any way ever. Oh absolutely, it's utter garbage. Someone put together a 'guide' to it from the POV of someone who hates it, but in all fairness I'm pretty suss about the legitimacy of that and think it might just have been Andy/Robb under another guise. Certainly the majority of people emailing in are one of those two, and the whole thing seems to undergo a massive mental breakdown as it goes on too. http://shreddedmooseproject.blogspot.com I won't paste chat log excerpts because, ugh, but this was posted elsewhere and has Rob talking about how this was all a distraction effort for him to hide his Facebook business (yeah, I have no idea how that makes sense either), and that SA is on the look out for him and that SM is just a decoy. As I said - wormhole of absolute craziness. http://pastebin.com/Pvvk32DF

Rupert Buttermilk posted:Weird, that link just sends me when thread. Can you give me the specific page where it happens? He starts posting on page 30 (January 2015) and his first post is his own fanfic of, of course, Shredded Moose, so he's immediately outed as Bromide. It takes a while to build up steam --- March 9th is when Bromide finally starts posting his own garbage again --- and since it's such a fast-moving thread, that's page 181. He starts out relatively ok, but by March 11 he's onto "screw you all, I made 2 goldmined threads with my performance art, and am responsible for the wildly famous Goku's pants thing" (dance, puppets!) and the usual repeated "I'm done here" posts (only to post again 5 minutes later). If you can do the "?" button thing on mobile, that's your best bet so you don't skip such highlights as: --- his comic Rad Dudestein, hilarious "satire" on Jewish stereotypes --- his comic wherein Superman appears (and is mentioned by name), and the following panel contains the phrases "tranny-ho" and "suck my cock" (I think DC might object to that, just a hunch) --- the link to the most Patreon I've ever seen
