And much like Ayn Rand, Nietschze, and Monty Python, LOL if you don't grow out of that poo poo by like 20.

Wait, are you saying actual Nietschze is dumb or just the "nihilism and nothing matters bro" understanding that pop culture gives us?

Because I feel like Ayn Rand maybe stands alone in this group.

The baby was hosed because of the gestational diabetes. One of the early posts in the thread even pointed out "As you describe, you are at a tremendous risk for gestational diabetes, and that will cause problems that your child will suffer from for their entire life" and that poster quoted themselves months later with a massive "I loving told you you disgusting waste of humanity"

The Bluestory response was "Quit being mean to me and offer some actual help. If you won't help me turn back the clock on 9 months of horrible mistakes then you're being mean should leave this thread"


4 months later

Yeah, it was infuriating because I think more than one person mentioned the risk of gestational diabetes and lots of people talked about other possible consequences of eating like poo poo during pregnancy, but she just outright refused to make more than the absolute minorest of changes to her diet. "I told you so" doesn't even begin to cover it.

One of my favorite parts of that thread related to that was when she was told you're not supposed to eat cold cuts or deli meat during pregnancy and she kept arguing with people about it and saying she'd talk to her doctor about it at her next appointment in a month (in the meantime eating cold deli meat every single day) and had to be shown multiple sources outlining the risk before she begrudgingly agreed to at least heat up her cold cuts in the microwave before eating them if she remembered to. She also had a hard time remembering what counts as cold cuts and had to be shown lists of things considered cold cuts several times until she got it. "Cold cuts just means meat that it cold" was too hard for her to understand or remember.

Oh, and the lunch "experiment" where she thought she was a genius for buying an expensive "froofy" sandwich and then taking it to a salad bar and adding more vegetables to the sandwich. It took her like 2 weeks of consideration and planning before she started to implement it.

God, that thread was amazing. The food stuff is the just the tip of the iceberg. I think that might have been the most mad and frustrated I've seen an entire thread get at an OP.

Uncooked meat. Sushi and poo poo. Basically they just want to gently caress around with salmonella etc and that's a big potential source of if.

Cold cuts should be fine as long as your not an idiot any it for the same reason...

Because there are bacteria that live on it that are harmless to someone with a functional immune system but that can do bad things to a fetus.

By being, perhaps, an amazing troll.

Was she for real or not? I'm really not sure. You could argue it either way and the arguments would all be vaild. There was no huge reveal that it was fake, but part of me deeply hopes it was. One of those ambiguous endings. It's "The Lady or the Tiger" for modern audiences.

With cold cuts the concern is listeria, not salmonella. CDC says you should cook your cold cuts if you're pregnant: https://www.cdc.gov/media/matte/2011/05_listeriapregnant.pdf

At least parts of it were true because she PM'd Detective Monkey photos that verified some things and posted photos in the thread of some lovely expensive art they bought complete with receipts and photos of the Kids in the Hall t-shirts she bought (which she HAD to have because she had been to a show once years ago and didn't have enough money to buy one of everything at the merch table and she was positively TRAUMATIZED by this lol) and pics of the Hamburger Helper she made which she was all proud of because it was such a major ordeal for her to cook anything whatsoever.

I actually think most of it was true because some of it was too bizarre and highly specific and the fake stuff was just her playing certain things up because it made people mad. Like, when she said she wanted to have a kid because she felt she shouldn't deprive the world of the combination of her and her husband's amazing genetics, I believe she meant that, but because people lost their poo poo over it, she kept making jokes about it to annoy people or whatever.

None of it was really that hard for me to believe because I've known enough people who are just as infuriating and resistant to change as her in real life.

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

It was the mute husband that freaked me out the most. All the food, and budget stupidity was fine essentially reeked of someone who had never had to care for themselves ever, and ehen it came crashing down, as it would, she would learn a valuable lesson.

But a husband who dealt with any question he didn't want to answer, or any sort of confrontation, (even one as minor as "could you please do the dishes today honey, I'm tired"), with silence and staring. Thats hosed up.

Also, don't forget that adding to the dietary insanity was the husband had a totally real and not made up allergy to fresh fruit and vegetables. To the extent that if someone unpeeled an orange in the same room as him, or he saw a carrot from across thehall, he would gag.

I hope she was a troll, coz if any of it is true, that poor poor baby.

He built a zipline with zero though on the physics involved, meaning if any kids would actually go down it they would either crash into the support pole at mid-range car accident speeds, or they would be flung from the zipline at the same speeds

Some weirdo was making rapey and creepy comments in game one night at about one AM. I yelled at them, they responded with a couple weird cryptic messages and then this, roughly: "well thanks for all the fun times here, i've got my rifle loaded and i'm gonna be shooting up a school full of kids in the morning, so this is goodbye"

User key was his first initial and last name with a number, that same account name was also used by a certain college student's blog and google+ page. Found his city and college from those, and the IP address he was playing from matched the ip registry for that college. Submitted the admin log, ip and timestamps to the FBI's online tips form, got several frantic calls back from city police and FBI agents over the next several hours and ended up getting calls from various detectives and fbi agents every hour or so from one am to three pm. No goddamn sleep.

Dude's dorm room was raided and he was arrested within about three hours of his comments, dorm was searched, computer taken to forensics, all that jazz. I dunno what happened past that though. I did have to write up some incident reports and attach a whole bunch of supplementary text and pictures about what ss13 is, how we log player communications and login info, how people find the game, how people register for the game, and a whole bunch of other stuff like that. Somewhere there's a screenshot in an FBI evidence folder showing a bunch of regular players farting, because it was impossible to find any portion of the game chat panel WITHOUT farting.
