I've been trying to stay away from Facebook because it's way too easy to get sucked down into the whirlpool of douchebagginess ... your own as well as everybody else's.
So I've been spending lots of time with YouTube videos playing in the background.
Mostly horror movies (most of which are so bad you find yourself rolling your eyes so much you can see your own brain).
However, last night I allowed myself to be led to a ... different channel. The word "conspiracy" figured in the name. The video itself was highly political in nature (not gonna give specifics as I'm not trying to get any Fratching started), and let's just say I didn't agree with the video's premise at ALL.
So I wrote a snarky comment.
Reply came back shortly. Let's call the commenter Definitely No Brains.
DNB: "[Pixelated], you better just STFU (he spelled it out in full), you *arglblarglyapyapyapELEVENTY!!!!* you *obscenity obscenity obscenity* n*****!"
Yep, you got that right. DNB used the "n" word at me.
I stared at it for a minute, got up, went into the bathroom, and peered into the mirror. Nope. Still pasty white.
Me: *another snarky comment*
DNB: "ARGLABLARGLA INSULT TO YOUR TRUCK STOP HO MOMMA, BOY!!!!"
Me: *don't need to go into the bathroom for this; I know I'm not a boy*
I wrote another snarky comment and then decided to call it a night on DNB. I think I spent maybe 5 minutes on this, which I admit was 4.5 minutes more than DNB deserved.
I think I'll stick to the cheesy horror movies in future.
