People make me sick.
OK, you know what? I'm sick to fucking death of all this crap going on about the Open Source Boob Project.
Actually, what I am sick of is people taking it upon themselves to make judgements about the project and the author without ever actually even reading the original post. It is gossip at it's absolute worst, and it makes you look incredibly stupid and hateful and shallow when you participate in it without knowing anything about the original issue.
It's not even like there isn't any number of well written posts which deconstruct the thing, and logically and unbiasedly point out all the reasons it is a bad idea. No, these people insist on taking quotes out of context, assigning motives and characteristics which, by the simple expedient of reading his post, it is easy to see he does not possess.
If you haven't read the original post, but only heard about it from someone who claims to know about it, shut your fucking mouth. Go read the original post, read the clarification, ignore the hyperbole and bile being slung by those who aren't content with pointing out it's a bad idea, but have to character assassinate the guy when his biggest crime is probably a momentary bout of stupidity.
Or better yet, just ignore the whole fucking mess and let it die the ignoble death it longs for.
just STFU about it already.
Alright, since I've been sucked into it;
Here's the kind of shite I'm talking about
ETA: You know there's something wrong with someone who twists words around to mean what they want against all logic which shows otherwise, but what do you say about someone who apparently scanned back through three freaking years in order to find a sentence which would allow her to twist it in such a fashion? That's how far back she went to get that footnote; Three. Fucking. Years.
There's something seriously wrong there...
