DRAMA!!!

FIGHTS!!

SHIT MACROS!!

aw, man. less than a day and 500+ friends. I have clearly filled a deep, dark LONGING in the Internets to Put Text On Goths.

Except for neef, who I have made angry.

We've had politics, we've had requests, we've had no end of shit macros. (science dictates that the half-life of funny is indirectly proportional to this ... christ, I can't be arsed ... some twigs over there. next to the horse. )

Basically what you'd expect when you mix goths with, well, anything.

In the face of responsibility, I've decided to be a right cunt and delete things that don't make me laugh (with optional mocking).

This seems to be working in that it's stemmed the flow of shit macros (for now) and christ, but it's rewarding deleting them.

Fish / Barrel / Goths / Internets

Wish I'd thought of this sooner.

Aren't I supposed to has a dayjob?

Shit!

For every macro that truely sucks, just change the pic to one of Goatse or something, that'll learn em! Thank you for making this nightshift be full of win.....mostly.


I am looking forward to using my finest spackmittens to smash out a few choice macros myself.

Unfortnately, mods can't edit posts, only delete them. If they could, I'd have been doing this on a few other communities a long time ago D:

Damnit, someone make this possible!!!

"That macro community sucks, it was like a thousand goatse's all screaming out at once."

Sturgeons Law:
90% of anything is crap.

It is to be expected!

[theinnocence.livejournal.com]

yeah, i was readingi t mostly when you first started it and then one girl kept on posting and posting an dposting and it was all NOT FUNNY

so i stopped

[mrtonylee.livejournal.com]

I like it when people post really unfunny ones - OF THEMSELVES in some sad attempt at making people look at THEM.

And, I love you, Scott. Don't delete mah babiez.

Nooooo!! he is deletin' mah babiez!!!

Fuck, I need to do some work now. Do you KNOW how difficult it is to write dialogue after an hour reading this?

Bastard.

[poifaerie.livejournal.com]

There's a few of "This is me being silly, hahaha" yet they're obviously photos from shoots. Gah. Bloody attention whores are diluting teh funneh!

[mrtonylee.livejournal.com]

I vote we kill them.

[poifaerie.livejournal.com]

I made a piss-take macro, just put it up. Hopefully they'll get the hint...

[bootpunk.livejournal.com]

You've upset neef? That must be because you are a Bad Person.

Glad there is a DB filter on it now, think I'll sign-up.

I just have one thing to say...

[cyberpunkgrrl.livejournal.com]

It's ok, you have the Corben get-out clause.

[emmelinemay.livejournal.com]

srs bsns indeed!

can't we come up with a whole bunch of goth FAIL macros and mock with them?

like these:





and add to the comm info 'macros deemed unfunny by the mod will be deleted and/or mocked.'

[deathboy.livejournal.com]

AHAHAAHAHAHAAhAHAHaAHahhahah :D

you wiiiiiiin :)

yeah, I should probably update the info, but I didn't want it to become some multi-page frickin' manifesto.

I'll just put up a sign saying "bummers will be shot" or something.

[emmelinemay.livejournal.com]

i'll just pop over there and post them then...

[deathboy.livejournal.com]

futher winning excellence :)

[shesmymonkey.livejournal.com]

You run that community? I saw someone had joined something to do with goths and macros, but I like the kitties better. Even though I've a long way to go before I get the writing right, never mind the bloody humour!

Git back to werk, loike!

[ze-monsta.livejournal.com]

I like how they are both fat AND overweight in his post :P silly person.

[ze-monsta.livejournal.com]

As if it's hard to NOT join a community you don't like... It certainly is easier than complaining about it if you don't even have to look at it.

[witchywillow77.livejournal.com]

I think its hysterical how many goths have joined it. If only we could get cats to join cat_macros or wtf_catmacros!

[moopet.livejournal.com]

Speaking of which, I take it you know of the webite stuffonmycat.com? I think you'd be the obvious choice to start stuffonmygoth.com in a similar vein...

[deathboy.livejournal.com]

*laughs*

oh, that'd be sweet. particularly because then whitby would become entirely a live photoshoot opportunity for putting Stuff on Goths.

well, more than it already is...

[shiftplusone.livejournal.com]

This needs to be done, NOW!

[ms-daisy-cutter.livejournal.com]

Greetings...I've seen your full-of-win stuff over in wtf_catmacros, and then I heard that you're the one who animated the 2012 Olympics logo so that it looks like a blowjob. And now I learn of the existence of goth_macros, and I am reading through all the posts and laughing myself sick. Please to be allowing me to friend you, kthx.

[notagod.livejournal.com]

Via ildrinn and goth_macros I stumbled across your LJ. Amusing as hell read (and interesting too, I work in the other end of the same industry, mobile programming). Mostly askin', do you mind if I add you to my friends list?

[deathboy.livejournal.com]

allo there :) - by all means, please do :)

[notagod.livejournal.com]

Thankyou sir, and massive congrats on the circus that g_macros has become, you're right tho, goth + anything = clusterfuck of lols.
