ohhhhh

i mean i dont know about the macklemore thing

hes "trolling," like hitler was

Surprised he didn't say "lol it was all a psychological experiment and reddit failed"

awesomethread and terrific work by pplains earlier with potential reddit frontpage stuff

max's comment about redditors being the future of the GOP was pretty eerie imo

reddit is truly America's Wandervogel.

I dunno why anyone expected this dude to NOT be a techie in his 40s, tbh

feels like the big reveal at the end of 8mm

They were mad that their buddy was going to be outed for simply, in their mind, exercising his free speech—his unalienable right to anonymously post stalker shots of women.

Also that he's from "Occupied Northern Mexico".

ya feel like these so called professional trolls should have some back up rolls planned out, trolls w/in trolls

anyway fascinating story, he shouldve taken up the guy on his offer to be his sock tho and made him post feminism all day

then outed him

so was releasing this after work on a Friday a small gesture of ... kindness? towards violentacrez

the cozy tone of the article makes me suspicious this whole thing isn't a combined troll for pageviews for both respective sites.

eh I think it was the right tone to strike

lol, nunez

reddit be needin them page views

i'm gonna brew a hot oolong tea and get lost in the comment section of the gawker article all weekend

You don't think "other races" can be racist too? I've had my face pounded in the sidewalk by a group of blacks because I was white and dating one of their sisters back in the late 90's which he and his crew didn't like.

hahah whiney

my favorite part of the whole article is the TWO times Chen basically sneak disses Obama's campaign team on some "These DC power-players thought it was a savvy tactic to send the leader of the free world into a den of pedophiles vigorously masturbating to pictures of 14-year-olds"

dying @ this one

Mr Adrian, keep in mind that posting this article will have real world repercussions on that man. If he really cracks and gets a gun, who know what might happen. He might as well take his life and you'll have that in your track record. You can do in fact kill a person with words.

He might be a sad person, bad and all the bad adjectives you want, but this is not justice served, you are just as bad as him for posting this story for money. A different kind of bad, if you want, but bad at the end.

Just by telling him you already know who he is and showed proof, it could have ended there, but money. You sold that man to the internet, Mr Adrian.

Hope you can live with that if that man dies.

Cheers.

dont know what reddit is.

*pvmic, I'm tired

After a decade that saw re-branding (Seth Cohen from the O.C., Peter Parker, Rivers Cuomo's second act) nerds are getting re-stigmatized thanks to websites like reddit and films like "The Social Network"

from my hypothetical Time Magazine article on all this.

honestly, anyone who still self-identifies as a "nerd" in 2012, there's like an 85% chance that person is a screeching misogynist or a full-on kid-toucher

or a chick who says "im such a nerd, lol" all the time

Whiney and Ass sadly otm.

Nowhere quite as reliably, screechingly misogynist as the gamer "community" and its house organs

http://nerdking.net/

bad and all the bad adjectives you want

my new goto pejorative

'Revenge of the Nerds' is such a pitch-perfect touchstone for "contemporary nerd culture" because the HERO of the film spends 90 minutes stroking a persecution complex and then literally rapes a woman at the end

sorry if i'm being to free with that word, but that's actually the plot of that movie

one thing tho is it goes w/the nerds as sweet likable feebs stereotype when mostly irl theyre just arrogant jerks

xp iirc she likes being raped bc he thinks about sex all day and so he's really good at it

i wish that capsule description weren't true because i liked that movie a lot when i was 14, but yep, it's true

some of them weren't even nerds they were just ugly

its true some of them were just dorks

but yeah it was sort of a lightbulb for me when i realized how awful it was esp cause that song they play rocks so hard

The whole cameras in the rafters of the sorority house thing midway through the movie may have also planted a few seeds.

I mean, Bluto at least had the gumption and know-how to put himself physically at the girl's window, incurring self-harm in the process.

Brutsch has been found working as a computer programmer for a financial services company in Arlington, Texas by Gawker.

Of course he's from my fucking home town.

ahh the company he works for is a payday/pawn lender http://ww2.firstcash.com

Hahah that may only cause him greater favor. "We needed the scummiest of people to work for us, Mike, and you fit the bill!"

kinda shocked at how old he is. always picture people who do that sorta thing as 20-somethings in college.

Decades of sharpening his craft.
