Responding to comments 2: Why the hate?


This post is a response to 2 questions, maybe from the same anonymous person maybe not, in the thread Anonyjohn ... Alive and Trolling.

Anonymous August 27, 2012 5:38 PM
Why the hate for John? Maybe you really love him? Why not unban him and face him?

Hate is a pretty strong word. I wouldn't say I hate AnonyJohn. Dislike, yes. Also, as I mentioned in the comment section John has never been banned from commenting here.

Why do I dislike John? Partly because he is a troll. Partly because he is an ass. Partly because he tries to deny reality and twist things to fit his narrative. Any one of those things would make me dislike someone. AnonyJohn exhibits all those traits and then some.

Also, it is hard to take someone like John seriously when he tries to set people straight on life in South Korea. Yes, John did live there but by his own admission that was over twenty years ago. Yet he tries to diminish the experiences of people who live there NOW based on his "knowledge" of life there.

Think of it this way, I lived in Buffalo, New York in the mid 1990's. Let's say it was 18 years ago. Would I REALLY know what life is like living there now? Of course not. I could talk about what it was like then. I could say "When I was there 18 years ago ...". But I would be an idiot if I tried acting as an authority of what life is like there NOW.

Add to that the fact that John is a gobshyte. He talks shit. Some of the stuff he says is so out there that all you can do is shake your head, shrug your shoulders, and wonder how he functions in reality. The guy has admitted to trolling and then got upset at being called a troll. He is a fucktard. Here are some examples.

"I’ve never taken your words or the words of others out of context."

Yet, he has. Hell I doubt anyone can seriously claim they haven't done it. Maybe not deliberately, but we have all done it.

"I have been sharp with my words before, sure, but this is a site that has posts titled - "Retarded Shit Koreans Do," and "Korean Bullshit."

Now he could have cherry picked some great thread titles to use as examples of me picking on Koreans. Instead he MADE ONE UP. There is NO thread titled "Retarded Shit Koreans Do". (To go along with Korean Bullshit there is also a Foreigner Bullshit thread for discussing the stupidity of Foreigners in SoKo. But that doesn't fit John's view that I only bitching about Korea. When reality does not fit his narrative AnonyJohn ignores it.

"Buddy, he calls me a Mook first in the post. He says "I'm trolling," because I make multiple attempts to get my point across, which is responded by these fools as "trolling" from the get go."

As mentioned earlier, Johnny Boy ADMITTED to his trolling on David Wills site. he also exhibits the traits of a troll, but gets upset when called a troll.

"Just because the KKKorean Sentry people use words like "subhuman" and you use more PC words doesn't mean you're any different from them."

He actually equates people calling for a holocaust against China with people who complain about rudeness and stupidity by calling those kinds people mooks and morons.

"Buddy, he calls me a Mook first in the post." 

He has whined about being called a mook, a moron, a fucktard, and a troll. His defence for calling people names is that they do it first. Yet he ignores when HE is the instigator, such as his attacks on a new commenter on David Wills site. He calls him a kid. Arrogant. Stupid. Brainwashed. All in his first address ever to the commenter who never once disrespected him. When called on this he refused to, answer, or god forbid even apologize for it. Which is the perfect time to segue into my last point.

"You have to realize, at some point, that the only difference between yourself and the version of me you envision in your twisted head, is that you have your own blog and a band of followers. Cheers."

If John honestly believes that is the ONLY difference between the two of us ... oh wait he probably does believe it. He is THAT full of batshit.

Here are some other differences that while true don't fit his narrative. When proven wrong I am not afraid to admit it. When an apology is called for I am not afraid to make it. When called out for being too harsh I am willing to look at what I said/ did and agree if I was. (And I have on this blog.) Those are things that John has never been able to do on my Blog or David's.  Dunno about the other sites he trolls.

In short, he is a fucktardic troll heavy on the batshit. That is why I dislike him.

Why the fixation then?

I get bored sometimes and AnonyJohn is an easy diversion. Mea culpa. :)

I hope this answers your questions.

Suicide

A "question" was asked in one of my comment sections here that I answered on Flint's Follies. Instead of reposting it all here I provided the link above for anyone interested.

Shit Koreans Say ... about wearing make-up.

"So funny how jjangkaes and japs love to make bullshit lies about Koreans. I love Korean girls and most of them don't even do make-up, which is why I always prefer Korean girls over Japs and jjangkaes."

This was posted by Grand Master (The actual title KS gives him not something I made up for shits and giggles.) Xcreaturex100 in a thread talking about someone complaining that KS is racist. It really shows the lack of knowledge these kkkunts have about Korea.

My female (expat) co-workers used to complain a lot about the comments from Korean students (adult and younger) and sometimes Koreans in general because they didn't wear make-up all the time. Or didn't wear enough. Some had students and Korean co-workers offer to help them put on make-up before class. While your average Korean woman doesn't look like a painted clown most wouldn't be caught dead in public without make-up on.


(I wasn't sure if the thread should be labelled Shit Koreans Say or Shit Morons Say ... it does bring the 2 issues into focus. A moron thinks Korean women don't wear make-up which makes him WAY out of touch.
Conversely showing how out of touch he is brings up the Korean obsession with women wearing make-up especially in light of my last Shit Koreans Say post. I decided to compromise and use both labels. :) )

Dokdo Is Ours: A Culture of Copying

The blogger known as Dokdo is Ours departed from his usual style of posts and posted a commentary. It is about the culture of copying in South Korea. I urge you to give it a read.

Shit Koreans Say ... about looks.


"You are too ugly to teach here."

Hilda's niece ran into this kind of shit from the director of the hagwon she went to work for. He didn't like her looks, didn't think she was "pretty enough", so he would constantly tell her she wasn't a beautiful teacher.

One day, after she had been there a 6 months, he actually told her that she was too ugly to teach at his school and that he was looking for a replacement for her. Then, after she pulled a runner, he was shocked that she didn't like working there and would do that. Fucktard.

What the ... Q&A?!?!?!?

I was at work the other day dealing with a customer from Korea. One of my co-workers pointed out to her that I lived in South Korea. (I don't usually mention it because I know the kind of stupidity that can follow.) She immediately started going about how I must miss Korea because Koreans are so kind. Korean food is the healthiest. Blah blah fucking blah.

It reminded me of so much of the propagandist BS that Koreans spouted while I was living there. Korea is the greatest. Kimchi cures all. I bit my tongue because I was at work. 

While I did encounter good (kind) Koreans while living there, I encountered a LOT more rude and obnoxious Koreans. Koreans who believed in fucktardery such as kimchi cures all.

Today I was perusing David Wills blog catching up on posts and comments. I read some of the comments on one post and it caused me to go back and reread the entire post. Part of what he wrote REALLY resonated with me in light of the customer I had dealt with.

Don’t tell the truth. Don’t speak your mind.

Unfortunately, when a Korean is asking you what you think about Korea they don't want the truth. Much like the customer I dealt with didn't really want to hear what I thought about Korea. She wanted to tell me what I thought. If you give them an honest answer that doesn't say Korea is great it won't go over well.

What the ... vengeance?!?!?

I read a post on Gusts of Popular Feeling today that had me shaking my head and chuckling. The author had been emailed by a friend warning about a phone number, 010-4878-4040. According to his friend the police were telling people not to answer calls from this number or they would be charged 250,000 Won. Of course it was a hoax. Yet another bullshit story that rubes across the world are willing to by into and spread.

What I found amusing was the reason why this was started. Someone pissed a guy off. To get revenge he started this rumour hoping no one would want to accept the other guys calls anymore.

On one hand, that is quite the revenge. I can kind of admire the depths the instigator was willing to go to for revenge over an argument.  I always thought I was vengeful but I have to take my hat off to this guy.

On the other hand just how fucking stupid are people? Oh yeah. Pretty stupid. The rumours of this nature that get bandied about thanks to the internet is insane. I think we all have had someone forward us a message/warning they got about a virus or something that turned out to be BS. Or gotten similar nonsense on FaceBook by someone who believed it enough to pass it on.

Morons, miscreants, and malcontents. At least they sometimes provide laughter with their bullshit.      .
