What is it with fandom and attention whores? Does everyone have ADD these days or does fandom draw in an incredibly large amount of people with autistic traits? I seriously wonder whether they don't give a damn that they're pushing their own selfish little problems onto others or actually cannot perceive their self-absorption at all. That's a basic trait of autism.

...I lost my cool. a little. I don't think I'm out of line, though.

AAHHHH. Man, no, you're not out of line. I can't believe she's upset about your calling her "immature" for, oh, BEING HATEFUL AND WRONG ABOUT ENTIRE GROUPS OF PEOPLE. DDD:

AMEN.

(btw: You and green are two of my favorite people. *smushing you*)

[trobadora]

Wow, WTF?!

*hugs*

I was keeping my cool until she said If your mission is to convince me that autists aren't attention whores or selfish or self-absorbed or something I can't stand you're wasting your time because I don't believe either of those things. Now I'm just pissed off.

[green]

Which... might have meant the opposite of what it sounded like? I don't even know anymore.

[em_h]

THANK YOU.

[green]

LOL You're welcome. I don't think I'm doing a very good job of making her see the actual problem though. I'm so bad at arguing. /o\

[schemingreader]

Do you want other people to comment and pile on her? Because I started to comment...OK a little angrily maybe...and then realized you might not want your whole flist to go over there and tear her head off.

[green]

She's whining that two people commented. LOL! I said I didn't ask anyone to comment. You're allowed to do whatever you want, of course. :)

[apostrophe]

FLAMES. FACE. GRRRRRRRR >:(

[coolrainkiss]

ehhhhhh pretend I used the account you know me by. OOPS.

[green]

Same here. And she's being deliberately obtuse about her views and it just. UGH.

[a2zmom]

She's an ass. I doubt she meant it that way, but once she realized that she was being offensive (and she really was) she should have apologized, instead of flying off the handle.

[green]

*nodnod* I understand being defensive when someone calls you out, but wow, you know?

[othercat]

...That person is made of stupid.

Also, she is a brainless fuckwitted moldy cunt-rag.

Also also, it was a waste of time to talk to her, but I can understand why you'd want to educate her.

[green]

I'm too fucking nice to call her names, but yeah, it was probably a waste of time.

IAWT:|

[gblvr]

Wow, what a twit. She's not even willing to listen to why she might be offending people *and* she's turned off comments.

Also? I'm pretty sure she's going to get nowhere with her complaints about being "mobbed"....

[green]

Yeah. And yes.

[schemingreader]

She deleted the original post, reposted with the exact same wording, and apparently banned me by name, I guess because I commented here that I was considering going over there and tearing her head off. (ONLY VERBALLY, SWEETIE, I'M SURE YOU WOULD HAVE SURVIVED!)

She's A. an idiot B. a hypocrite C. an asshole. Because if she came over here to read your post about her, she had to realize that you are the mom of a child with autism, and that she's slamming your disabled child. But other people are self-centered.

[em_h]

Wow. It's like she's now taken on insulting people with autism as a deep personal commitment, which she must defend against attempts to BRING HER DOWN.

[othercat]

...It looks as if she multibanned your whole friends list, green. ((How do you ban on dreamwidth, anyway?))

She probably just did a thing where only people she's granted access to can comment.

[rainkatt]

Wow. I've seen people get piled on for saying something stupid, and that wasn't even close. Four people? Five? Arguing politely that she might want to check her language?

Duuude.

You were fine. I thought it was good of you to apologize for your brief loss of cool, but you called her on her crappy language beautifully.

[green]

Thanks. I shouldn't have said anything with my temper running high, but I tried.

Thank you.
