Sorry, I have to rant about this -- this is just some bullshit

[themostepotente]

Do NOT, and I repeat, do NOT instant message me to tell me the following, and I quote;

"Some people should not use their pictures for LJ icons. Especially the ugly and fat ones."

*blinks*

Think what you want. I have no control over your thoughts. But I wanna know one thing?

WHO THE FUCK MADE YOU THE AUTHORITY ON BEAUTY AND FITNESS?

Thank you for putting me in a shit mood that only a medium rare steak can cure.

Fuck.

ETA: They were NOT talking about me, or I would seriously be kicking some ass. FTR -- my picture is not on an LJ icon. But now, NOW, I'm reconsidering after this. *G*

You have some people in your IM contact list who are in serious need of some basic education.

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

This person is NOT on my YM list. And if they were, they wouldn't be now.

[danxsunday.livejournal.com]

What a fucking clown. Shoot them. Now.
* uses icon of self*

[themostepotente.livejournal.com]

Did you have a gun in mind, Danno?

*licks your icon*

[danxsunday.livejournal.com]

Actually maybe something more hands on? See the whites or their piggy bigoted eyes. I've fucking had a gutful of people today.

*big lick back babe*

Wasn't it though? I mean, wtf, we don't have more constructive things to say?

[frek.livejournal.com]

some people are only alive because it's illegal to kill them.

*g*

[tarie.livejournal.com]

Jesus that's fucking rude.

And then people wonder why those of us who are overweight have the complexes we have.

[xochiquetzl]

Some people should not be allowed to use IM until they learn some manners.

[cathexys.livejournal.com]

i think there are many good reasons not to have your picture on lj icons, all having to do with privacy and recognizability...none of them having to do with looks or thoughts on attractiveness...

yeah, pretty rude and juvenile!

[chuffing.livejournal.com]

Can I shoot them?

[tarie.livejournal.com]

I think you ought to.

[chuffing.livejournal.com]

I think I will.

You replied just to use that icon, didn't you? :P

[tarie.livejournal.com]

I was voicing supporT! :p

And two spikes are better than one. :D

[chuffing.livejournal.com]

Pass the bullets, please.

Damn right. Everyone should have at least two.

[tarie.livejournal.com]

*passes bullets*

Three, if they can manage it.

[shaychana.livejournal.com]

*adds spike*

there is some merit to having pretty icons after all, yay!

[sabrinanymph.livejournal.com]

*Gratuitously posts Spike*

[scarah2.livejournal.com]

They must have been talking about this photo of me

[felonytexas.livejournal.com]

Huzzah.

People just generally suck. This is the conclusion I have come to after much scientific study.

[ladysorka]

I shall now purposely use an icon of my 200+ lb self to reply to this post.

So there.

[altiloquent.livejournal.com]

*joins in the self-icon using*

[dragonelle-fics.livejournal.com]

Some people should not use their IM programs to reach out to the world outside of their heads. Especially the vapid and shallow ones.

[absynthia.livejournal.com]

I know you're not ugly and fat... I've seen. But, you have your pic on an icon? Where?? I want to see!

This is probably as close as I'll get to that.

[exbentley]

And some people shouldn't use YM to show their intolerance. Especially not the shallow, stupid ones.

I hope you gave her what for.

[mamaboid.livejournal.com]

What a clod. --And a stupid clod at that.

(Damn! Now you've got me thinking about a medium rare steak, and I'm going all Homer Simpson.)

[odogoddess.livejournal.com]

Some people should not send IM's. Especially the hateful and intolerant and arrogant ones.

Give 'em hell. (Or strongly worded heck)

[subliculous.livejournal.com]

oh, fuck that bloodclot.

[furiosity.livejournal.com]

*blinks* That's random. Some people shouldn't breed, I think. But isn't that like saying that they're fat and ugly? *ponders this* Nah. People who call others fat and ugly seriously need to get their priorities straight.

I got IMed with "You are evil" one day. I wept when it turned out they'd accidentally IMed the wrong person.

Have friended you; hope it's ok if I stalk you comment on stuff.

[miss-serpentine.livejournal.com]

In the tradition of other commenters, here I go with my one of my ridiculous icons of myself. Why do I have them? Well, I'm a narcissist with a god complex. I happen to think I'm good-looking, and I want other people to know it.

This person needs to be reminded that there are many kinds of beauty. Is the human, in his/her highly-evolved primate glory, not beautiful enough purely as an infinitely complex, unique life form?

[herlifeisbroken.livejournal.com]

Replies with self-portrait.

*licks for good measure*

[charlotteschaos.livejournal.com]

That's pretty lame. Then again, for the most part, people are lame. But, in protest and like many others here are doing, I'm responding with an LJ icon of myself. Take that random IM jagoff! :D

[teawithvoldy.livejournal.com]

Whoever said that is a fucking bitch who is truly ugly on the inside.

That is mean, insensitive and just plain evil.

I hope this person's kids are ugly, that way they'll know how it feels when their kids come home crying because some fucked up person told them they're fat and ugly!

[hobbit-feet.livejournal.com]

What a horrible thing to say. I'm now sorely tempted to use a picture of my fat and ugly self as an LJ icon. My DEFAULT icon.

[shaldana.livejournal.com]

That's just fubared. WTF is wrong with some people?

In protest, I'm posting my eyeball, which is as close to posting a real pic of me I wanna get. I'd hate to offend anyone's sensabilities. I hope blue eyes are okay or is that going to cause them to go off on a bender??? Oh, no make-up. Man, that could be offensive too, as I have not gone to any depth in forcing myself to look more 'beautiful'.

Cripes, I'm gonna spew.

Man.. some people should simply be sterilised at birth. Saves us all a world of trouble, if you ask me.

"Some people should not use their pictures for LJ icons. Especially the ugly and fat ones."
Ugly and fat pictures? Or people? I think that's an unclear reference, there.
How about: Some people should not write. Especially the ones with poor grammar.

I actually do have a picture of me as an lj icon (obviously, I'm using it)--because, well, it's a pretty clear representation of me, and I felt a bit weird with the idea that no one would know what I look like.

[schmoo999.livejournal.com]

Well, this just confirms my opinion about 90% of the world are just flipping idiots. I never judge someone on their looks just on their personality and this person is already in the loser column with me.

I guess I should IM you out of the blue to something random like..hey you know I love your discussions..they are great sexy.lol..you know to combat the stupidity this person let lose.

:) (and now I use my icon of me and my daughter in goofy hats. And since I am not in any way under a size 12 or even 16 I guess I would be qualify as a fat one. So to this person I say fuck you and I might even use it as my default.)

<333 to all people on this thread...

[ook.livejournal.com]

What an asshat!

I admire people who are brave enough to use their own photos for icons, irregardless of how they look!

[pen-and-umbra.livejournal.com]

That person? Sheeish. Another proof of John Gabriel's Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory (http://img.penny-arcade.com/2004/20040319l.jpg).

[kryptyd.livejournal.com]

Jeeeesus! The internet always ends up giving a forum to people of the utmost stupidity and shallowness.

[underlucius.livejournal.com]

*pets you* and looks forward to seeing the TMP!!

[wikdsushi.livejournal.com]

Wow. I'm floored. Out of everything that person could have said to anyone, about anything, he chose... that. He could have talked about a book. He could have wanted to argue about religion. He could have asked the timeless classic, "ru m or f?" But noooooo, no, he had to try and sound intelligent and opinionated, and instead just sounded opinionated.

Talk about downgrading the species.

[maelwaedd.livejournal.com]

I have a pet peeve with icons, but I prefer not to share it at random. And there is at least one flist setup that doesn't include icons.
Meh.
*icons you with love*
