this, the monster i have created
You’d think that just because I was one of the web developers of a social network software doesn’t give me the right to make fun of particular users. And I’m sure it doesn’t. But if I make fun of people on Blogspot, Typepad, LiveJournal and Xanga without discretion and not about Yahoo! 360, then what good am I as a catty bitch with a weblog?
So I bring to you an IM conversation that I had between myself and Emotion Eric.
Ernie: hey, i think i found the gayest person on yahoo 360 ever. [sends link]
Eric: i scanned the page and thought i saw the word “boi” and i was like, cant be. but then i read fully and it was true and now i am gay
Ernie: the text in his blog was purple. fucking purple.
Eric: hehe, nice interests
Eric: oh i like, travelling, bookstores, BOIZ, SEX, CUTE BOIZ, reading, movies….
Please Note: It should be stated that it wasn’t the interest list that bothered me, so much as he spelled it “BOIZ,” with a Z, all caps, thank you very much. And how CUTE BOIZ were of their own category completely, as if saying, “well, if there aren’t any CUTE BOIZ, I’ll just settle for BOIZ.”
Ernie: oh my god his interests include bathhouses
Eric: he just likes being clean
Eric: … right?
Eric: and likes to eat twinkies
Ernie: [buries face in hands and cries]
