Luna the Lurker (TM)

Wow that's a great story! I love catfishing stories, it's always amazing to me the power one person can wield over another without ever meeting.

VF has a good line in them http://www.vanityfair.com/news/2016/01/celebrity-surgeon-nbc-news-producer-scam

wow @ that miranda story

I don't want to read the Miranda story because I want to continue assuming it's about MirandaSings

Of course, you're the #1 example of how it can all end up going well!

I, on the other hand...you'd think I had some intelligence...well, back in 2014 I was straight up catfished for 7 months, and when you're in the grips of it it can be so hard to realise.

i think any "shame" that arises from a catfishing should lie solely with the catfisher themselves

Xp well my situation was a lot different bc we skyped and I even skyped with his family and he spoke with my friends... And he met my parents in person before me so. He was also very googleable too.

I just find not-"irl" relationship dynamics fascinating.

I sent some chocolate to a girl from the internet once

a guy from the internet sent me chocolate once

Xp lol it was good chocolate!

And he met my parents in person before me so.

I like to read this as him meeting your parents before you ever met your parents

Weird about "Miranda" recently passing away. I only came across that story whilst reading this review: http://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/01/books/review-dana-spiottas-innocents-and-others-explores-the-dynamics-between-life-and-art.html

I now can't stop imagining this woman dressed like Captain Crunch

I mean, I read the "wow" as someone assuming that the person in the link was Luna is all.

Oddly, the woman in the link does look vaguely like the FAKE luna pics.

Frankly I'm not that wowed by this shit anymore because all the stories out there show there's an astonishing amount of people ready to be easily fooled, which is sad :(

sorry for confusion. the "wow" was a general wow. no matter how many stories like this i read i'm still floored by the scale and duration of these deceptions.

An entire interview in which the words "Damon" and "Naomi" are left unsaid. Amazing quote: "The trio forces everyone to work, there is something cool about it, especially live; all of you have to make noise constantly. But I think most of the great bands (especially in the live scenario) are four or five people."

I'm glad Dean finally acknowledges Woody Allen as a major influence. This is actually a perfect pairing of interviewer and interviewee, to an extent that we rarely see these days, and one of the best interviews that I've read in recent memory.

hey is this a thread where we can discuss the moon?

of all threads, it should be this one being the most forgiving about other posters mistakenly thinking a thread's about something it isn't.

lmao

Good work

Lol the op in this thread

clicking on jaycee d. the "break out lurker" who wrote the OP gets you this:

User does not exist in the database.

It's weird seeing ilxors I've only known as hardhearted zingmeisters sending luna cringey well-wishes. She really did steal a generation's innocence.

lol

if you were ten years older your parents would be posting asking us when we'd last heard from you

somehow I missed the point in the original where aimee referred to her behavior as "a little flaky"

take him, tuomas

The photos she had sent me displaying my name on a piece of paper? Photoshopped. My roommate did some research and studied the ways to find inconsistencies in pictures.

XD

they could tell because of the pixels
