I don't get it.

What is it about asperger that attracts the trolls? We don't even get good trolls - this is the shittiest trolling I've ever seen! Where's the drama? The entertainment? The moderators?

I'm not so much angry about the troll herself (as I've dealt with this specific one on other forums - was posting about animals needing adoption, yet posting pictures of cut-up animals in her personal journal and laughing at the animal-adoption folks). I'm angry because the girl who posted the original message thought she had done something wrong because of the troll's reaction.

What angers me most is when I feel like I'm under attack from one of the 'regulars' of the forum. I'm overweight, a geek, and I dress funny. I don't like being told to 'get a life' because I'm different. *sigh* I think I'm going to go eat lunch... that at least should keep me sane...

That was why I was careful to remind people it was a troll & the best way to deal if you don't want to be baited.

That regular makes me feel like that too.
She doesn't realise body image is one of her own obsessions.
I've seen her pick apart skinny people on her LJ for stupid things like having a square butt or being older so we don't really stand a chance.

I hope my reply to her makes you feel better(if you read it).

*nodsnods* It did, I'm okay, I ranted and raved in my own journal. I do that *sheepish*

I actually did a 'troll' warning post as the second post in reply to that, but the user deleted it -.- Erf...

Oh, how I know that, when someone says something that hurts you, and yes, go on obsessing all over it. *pet pet*

What, so we're now supposed to kill ourselves at 30 so as to avoid offending her?

25, actually. Or earlier, if your butt is square.

Something like that. *rolls eyes at the silliness of the girl*

Yes, that comment really disturbed me too (about geekiness and various characteristics). I read fanfic! So what? If people are happy with themselves, then why does it matter? And if they're *not* happy with themselves why make them feel worse? I didn't really see how that post applied.

I find it quite apparent from her posts and replies that she is rather unhappy about having to be different, and therefor feels less out of the norm if she can bat at people that are more out of the norm than she, even though they are in general more happy, at least by a margin, about who they are, then she is about both being who she is and about who they are.
