I also have the right to walk up to somebody and shit on them, but that doesn't mean it's a good idea, and that doesn't mean that I won't have to face the music for shitting on them.

People can pretend it's anonymous or 'not real' if they want to hide behind that and justify it, but the fact of the matter is that at the other end, there is a real person dealing with a very real situation. And not having to face them and see them react is no excuse for behaving differently and with any less respect than you would in their company. And that's the last I'm going to post on the subject in this thread

Hey, don't call me scum. I don't care what Glenn or El Savior posts because they're wrong. miss world is justified on posting about on Netphoria. It's way to cope and maybe serve as a distraction from her tragedy. It's all good, that's not what *I'm* complaining about.

I'm complaining about the oozing fake and selective sympathy on this board. I doubt many of you care about this particular individual or her father. But you would like to, from the safety of your home computer, type out a few words of kindness and think that that automatically makes you morally noble. Right? You posted so you guys could feel noble, yes? Yes. What's even more noble is condemning people like me who joke about it. How dare he say that! We are right, he is wrong! I only posted one joke guys. And you know what the truth is? I don't care about miss world or what happens to her and she doesn't care about whatever I post, and rightfully so. So let it slide right? Nope. You guys still jump all over me so you can have that feeling of nobility. It's incredibly self serving. I liked the joke I made. I liked Glenn's joke and the parody post I made. It's the fucking internet. It's a wonderful place. Where else can I act like a complete prick and get away with it, with no remorse whatsoever? This is a privilige the internet grants us. You won't find it anywhere else. It's awesome. Let your hair down. Diss a girl who just lost her dad, because reality doesn't exist here. It's awesome and I appreciate it while I can.

Maybe the rest of us just aren't as emotionally numbed as you are. I truly do feel sorry for her, and I do truly wish her strength and healing. Maybe you're just too cynical to understand that ?

And it doesen't make me feel noble. I don't do things for entirely selfish reasons. From the way you act, i would guess you do... you don't always have to GET something just for giving/expressing something. maybe if you stepped out of your self-absorbed world and stopped focusing on how miserable you are, you might notice that there are others, and that sometimes talking to/sympathizing with others can make your own problems seem less significant

This basic arguement always comes up in these kind of threads. Just cause you don't care doesn't mean you gotta post all kinds of stupid gay mexican arguments and get a laugh out of your little Axis Of Stupity you three have going on. Morons, go jerk off and dream of getting laid one day.

Miss World, I feel sincerely bad for you and worse that you had to read 5 pages of idiotic posts from people who have no idea what life and emotions are like. I really respect you, hope you can get through this ok

Thank you.

Just because you (uh, not you, Julio) are unable to express sincere sympathy toward someone you've never met does not mean that everyone else is too. You're so ignorant.

That's still worded terribly. The above paragraph is directed toward Mayfuck. Yes.

Truth be told, I thought of a lot of things funnier than what they posted to put up here, but it's not the right forum.

I don't think its fake sympathy, but it goes more like this:

hearing someone's parent is dead

+ thinking about your parent is dead

+ thinking how horrible that would be

+ realizing that a horrible thing actually happened to a real person who has to go through with what would be your nightmare

= sympathy

Its not to get on a moral soapbox and preach, its geunie feeling. I mean, there's no way you can hear about that and NOT feel any kind of sympathetic feeling on some level for a person.

also I don't think there's any reason Miss World should have titled this thread "I'm sorry" because there's nothing for you to feel sorry about. Its a terrible thing to happen so I think you should get any support, in whatever forum you can. because you need it cuz its a rough thing to happen.

of course, people here are just too fucking stupid to realise it until it actually happenes. oh well. even this wont make anyone learn a thing. humans are utterly dumb, and have a serious inability to "learn". period. oh well.

walking up to someone and shitting on them is assault. making jokes about their sad predicament may be in bad taste, but it's perfectly legal. try another analogy.

I agree. Actually, I wish the best of luck to miss world. That's beside the point though: I got all the responses I wanted out of all the other Netphorians. http://www.netphoria.org/wwwboard/icons/icon14.gif *pats self on the back*

it was because the poor girl made a thread called something like "my dad just killed himself" (dunno the real title) and then people were being stupid in that thread. So she made this one to say "sorry for posting about my dad dying" (sarcasm)....then certain netphorians thought they could use a laugh

NO FUCKING WAY, ASSAULT? I THOUGHT IT WAS A COMPLIMENT.

Duh. I think it's pretty obvious that taking a crap on somebody is illegal. Legalities aside, if you're going to make shit jokes in poor taste on a messageboard, don't bitch that the man's just bringing you down when people reply in anger and disgust. It's kind of backward to tell miss world or anyone else to shut up and take whatever jokes are posted when the comedians can't fucking shut up and take the backlash they created.

CAUSE = EFFECT
STUPID FUCKING JOKES = ANGRY AND DISGUSTED PEOPLE REPLYING

SHITTING ON SOMEBODY AND WONDERING WHY THEY ARE ANGRY AFTERWARD = THE POINT OF ANALOGY POSTED.

Uhuh.

Now I feel sympathy. I read her post and thought "Oh... Shit." Not because it's miss world. But because the story was fucked. It was tragic, for lack of a better word.

But you know what? I have more fun making you people argue for the sake of arguing. None of your arguing matters. Have you ever seen a point of view changed on Netphoria? I didn't think so.

So look what you people have done. Aruged for SIX FUCKING PAGES and for what? Some crappy self satisfaction? Guess what you got from the experience? Nothing. That's right, NOTHING.

And you know what? Next time I, Mayfuck, Ryan|Patrick, Best Looking Boy or any of the other decent trolls on the board make an offhand comment they don't really mean, guess what you're going to do? Yes, correct, you're going to take the bait and make another thread that goes absolutely nowhere!

And don't say I wasn't trolling, or that I'm really an asshole. Look at my post. Have I ever shown myself to be truely that callous? No I haven't. I am just so sick of the bullshit and high-school popularity contests that go on in this place.

I think (I could be wrong) what twice was saying was the fact that, not saying she is, but miss world can definately be lying and none of us would know. Obviously we are all giving our sympathy because we assume this situation to be true, but she was just stating the fact that it could be a lie. Anyone can lie on the internet because it is the anonymous internet. I could be some hairy 40 year old man for all you guys know (well except for the few that know me irl, they know I'm just a hairy 18 year old boy ).

I'm sorry, but this is exactly what I was talking about. People saying 'I was joking, I'm a nice guy really, I'd never do anything like this in real life' as if it makes any difference to the person on the receiving end. If you find it entertaining to make jokes about someone's Dad dying, in a thread they posted about it, only hours after it taking place, then that's reflecting something of your personality. Something which normal social circumstances usually prevent you from showing.

Yeah, I reworded it as 'people in general' instead of using the second person because it wasn't entirely directed at what she said. But then, with no reason to believe she's lying, why assume that and respond?

Hardly any of us have a reason to believe that miss world would lie about a thing like this. I think thats where the "selective sympathy" that Mayfuck was talking about comes in. There are a few people that I'm sure we would assume they're lying. Which is why we are assumed to be giving out selective sympathy.

Anyhow, I always assume that what someone is telling me is true unless I find out otherwise. I guess that I'm just a little too trusting, but I'm sure a lot of others do the same.
