Petty stuff

(Anonymous) 2014-11-21 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
Whenever I see someone acting like a tough guy on Facebook, or constantly complaining about political correctness and how oppressed they are, I remember it and report something they've posted. Even if it's not offensive. Just because it's too fun to see their whiny freakouts after Facebook notifies them that someone reported them.

This happened to someone I know just yesterday.

I really want this annoying elitist user on this writing comm I'm at to be banned for good. All he ever does is whine about writers he doesn't like, whine about their being fandoms for what he doesn't like, and whine about the downvotes and disapproval he gets.

Like dude, I'm sorry your so miserable with your own writing issues...but quit whining that everyone else who's successful doesn't deserve it.

Is this the SCP Foundation?

Nope. /r/writing.

Yeah yeah I know, Reddit. But there's some interesting stuff there. And for what its worth I don't think other people like him very much either.

There was this long-time sporker whose livejournal I sometimes read who could not take criticism. Any critique she received on her writing would be sporked--even when it came from an acquisitions editor for an actual publishing company.

It amuses me no end to see that her writing has not improved in a decade.

Re: Petty stuff

(Anonymous) 2014-11-21 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
*laughing* Oh my Gooooooood

If my writing were sporked by that person, I'd be enjoying the hell outta that.

It's weird that some of the most crit-averse writers I've encountered were sporkers.

Re: Petty stuff

(Anonymous) 2014-11-21 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah yes.

Can dish it but can't take it. I've always suspected that some of the most nasty wannabe caustic critics can't take their own treatment.

ngl,I would get out the popcorn and lawnchairs for that, too.

My awful roommate's fiance found out last week that she was cheating on him and I'm beginning to genuinely think that I'm a horrible person because it just can't be right to feel this much joy at watching someone's life crash and burn

Re: Petty stuff

(Anonymous) 2014-11-21 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah I would agree that you're acting like a piece of shit here.

Re: Petty stuff

(Anonymous) 2014-11-21 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
NA

Wow. OP's roommate cheated on her fiancé and is apparently a horrible person in other ways (which could all be subjective, it's true), and OP is the piece of shit for being glad she's getting what she deserves? You're a real prize, aren't you?

Re: Petty stuff

(Anonymous) 2014-11-21 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
Lol she didn't say anything about feeling bad for the guy in this situation. Meaning she's acting like a self righteous twat for feeling joy about a shitty situation people are having, probably because she's not feeling great herself. Misery loves company. At least she had the stones to admit it though, I'll give her that much.

Re: Petty stuff

(Anonymous) 2014-11-21 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
OP

No, I do feel bad for the guy. I've only met him briefly, but he seemed nice enough. I'd probably still be delighting in the situation even if he was kind of a dick though, so you got me there. As for the not feeling great part, she's actually been the source of most of my recent anxieties which aren't making me feel great so technically you're right.

da

lol what, do you want them to cry themselves to sleep because some dumbass ruined their own relationship and rightfully got tossed to the curb?

Re: Petty stuff

(Anonymous) 2014-11-21 03:37 am (UTC)(link)
Lol. No one is saying OP should cry herself to sleep. OP just admitted she took joy out of this misery, not even feeling bad for the guy who was cheated on, which is completely different to thinking her roommate had it coming.

Re: Petty stuff

(Anonymous) 2014-11-21 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
Fair enough

Re: Petty stuff

(Anonymous) 2014-11-21 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
DA

I know you've already corrected a misunderstanding with the OP over this, but I just want to ask why you immediately jumped tho the conclusion that OP is a piece of shit - it's entirely possible to feel sorry for one party in a situation and take glee in another party's comeuppance at the same time. Also, if OP's roommate was awfuk, as held up by the fact they were cheating on their fiance, isn't it ultimately a good thing that the nice fiance found out so ge can get on with his life, rather than marry someone who was lying to him? Amd therefore OP's glee isn't actually as heartless as you initially thought?

DA

(Anonymous) 2014-11-21 07:05 am (UTC)(link)
Because they didn't state feeling bad for the guy in this situation and didn't seem to spare a thought to him, and instead made it seem like it was all about the roomie being awful and taking glee in her misery and literally nothing else. That's the kind of person who'd probably not give a fuck that anyone else was hurt in this situation so long as they got their laugh.

Re: DA

(Anonymous) 2014-11-21 11:08 am (UTC)(link)
AYRT

I guess I understand that, but that definitely wasn't the impression I got from OP's original post, nor does it seem the most likely assumption to me to make about OP based on their post. I guess what I'm gently trying to say is that I (and most of the other commenters in this thread) think you overreacted a bit here - so it might be an idea to mull your gut reaction over a while before posting in a similar situation in the future.

This was a fascinating thread to come across.

There's something I don't understand that nobody has brought up though--what does it even matter how OP feels, as long as they're not behaving like a dick to the fiancee or the awful roommate? OP is describing experiencing a feeling, not lording it over the roommate and pointing and laughing at every opportunity. Emotional reactions don't make you a shitty person, shitty behavior does.

I can only seem to find inspiration to write when I'm supposed to be doing something else.
