30 in 30 - 23 - Pranking Victory!

[aggienaut]

   So many of you were wondering why my first post yesterday was friends-only. The answer, you see, is that it was undercover as part of ongoing pranking operations.. pranking operations which have since turned out wildly successful.

   Thats right, we have achieved another stunning pranking victory against otimus!! He has been compelled not only to believe, but to post a dire warning to his friends-list, that emo_snal is a virulently rabid sockpuppet belonging to historical trolls son_of_art and ruis_draiocht (who had recently trolled the old_english community, wtf)!!!

   Anyway I'd like to thank mythunderstood for assisting in the utter hoodwinking of otimus.

Next we're gonna parody this on emo-snl!!


   He may be a dead horse, but god he's a lol-cow as well. He's the Horn of Plenty of the lulz.
   Okay I'm on break in the Courthouse, gotta get back to work.

dear god, change your html code. It's gangbanging my friends page royally

[emosnail.livejournal.com]

Any idea what specifically is wrong with it? I'll add some more [/font]s to the end to kill anything I may have missed I guess.

[blueliquid13.livejournal.com]

ah, seems to be working now

[emosnail.livejournal.com]

Uh, what?

I don't care how much effort he put into it, the fact is he thought it was worth warning his friends list about, whereas in fact he was completely wrong.

Whup tee doo he only added eight words, my goal wasn't to make him type more -- the point is that he thought it was someone completely different's sockpuppet.

[emosnail.livejournal.com]

When did I ask him to do it?

To whom was he being polite? The nutty conspiracy theory was focused at him.

He dedicated the first page an a half of his entry to posting the warning. Thats important real estate where the half dozen people that actually read his blog either get interested, or decide its about tin foil hats and tune out the whole entry.

[otimus.livejournal.com]

On top of that! I didn't even bother to correctly format the HTML!

[emosnail.livejournal.com]

Yeah um, I'm not mythunderstood.

And yes, he only added eight words, and they weren't good ones, but the fact that he dedicated a page and a half of his entry on that means either (A) he has absolutely no idea how to structure an entry; or (B) he thought it was really fucking important.

[emosnail.livejournal.com]

No actually that wasn't even someone that was in on the joke, unless you're going to argue that they're another of my sockpuppets ( O=!!!)

The fact is, this hilarious misunderstanding just kind of fell into my lap. emo_snal was a joke shid made to scare me and got two posts out of in that iteration, then I continued the joke that I was dead and that there really was an emo-snal, and granted probably put more effort into that than it was worth, but Otimus jumping on a conspiracy bandwagon about it was totally unexpected. As to this aspect of it I spent a 15 minute break making an entry about it, which probably saved me time I'd otherwise have spent on a more elaborate entry, and had a very hearty laugh with several people who did in fact think it was pretty damn funny. So.. it was worth my time as far as I'm concerned.


And Yeah that entry consisted 80% of reposting of the conspiracy warning, 15% a simple meme, and 5% the hedgehog's birthday. If you want to say he's not funny, argue with him below.

I don't get it!

[emosnail.livejournal.com]

otimus is all warning his friends list that emo_snal is an evil sockpuppet of a evil livejournal troll I've never heard of. Which I find humorous since to me its fairly obvious that one should look to me, emosnail for some explanation of emo_snal, not some nutty conspiracy theory.

[apoplecticfittz.livejournal.com]

Man, I still don't get it.

Perhaps 30 in 30 is drawing too long this year.

[emosnail.livejournal.com]

It is amusing to me that he didn't make the very obvious connection and instead went hollerin to his friends list about a conspiracy theory.

I dunno, I had a hearty laugh about it with several of my friends but maybe the hilarity isn't translating to the drawn out format of linking between entries.

[apoplecticfittz.livejournal.com]

I don't know...a good prank to me usually includes someone getting punched in the balls...not LJ links.

[otimus.livejournal.com]

You call that hollerin? Dude.. this is the lamest prank in history. I should just ignore you and sit back and laugh. Get humor lessons. I hear apoplecticfittz is charging $5 an hour this summer.

[emosnail.livejournal.com]

"Lol-cow" just means you're funny ;)

Its all just good natured scamping.

[otimus.livejournal.com]

I don't get what you have against me. Did I not tell you to not take it seriously, or something, many a day ago? Clearly that went right over your head, and as I've read through this, you've clearly taken it upon yourself to begin attacking me.. Apparently you saw fit to refer to me as some sort of "lol-cow", which, as far as I can gather, sounds like a very, very derogitory term toward my intelligence, which has left me VERY annoyed, and very insulted, especially with someone like yourself throwing it at me. You know what? I am funnier than you. Screw you if you disagree. I'm sure this may be hard to deal with, I know. I've fought worse enemies than you!

UNLIKE YOU, I have the full support of the Fittzes, roter_terror, EMD, and some other great individuals at my disposal as a humorist. Not to mention that I'm actually pretty damned funny, as others can attest to. All you have is your lame little jokes that don't click!

If you want a little war against me.. (Which, for all's fuck, I don't understand why you would..) you can have it.

[emosnail.livejournal.com]

Do you have all our heads pre-cutout for quick photoshopping purposes? Because I find cutting out the heads the most tedious part of such endeavours.

[otimus.livejournal.com]

Nope! It's actually pretty easy to do if you just use a soft eraser, and have a head that isn't too obtrusive.

Popcorn, anyone?
