Is there anyone still at ASU who was involved in Sweetums's expulsion? We know that "Leo Greer" is at another college now, Bonnie Thrasher is dead, the university's current chancellor came in 2012...

I guess Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs William Stripling was there then (as Assistant VP for Student Affairs), so I'm sure he'll be delighted to hear from Mr. Sweet.

Well, whaddya know? It seems that there remains hardly a single individual at all of ASU that Sweet can complain to, let alone anyone who would back him up. Who woulda thunk that people actually move on after college?

Again, @MrsFrizzle has provided us with some great background on this saga, and continues to flesh things out. I tip my hat, ma'am.
 
It's a sure bet that, if possible, Sweet would spend long hours deeply and thoroughly tonguing his own anus.

EtA: I gotta hand it to @Dr. Merkwurdichliebe and @Adamska . I thought about mentioning something about apologia, but I knew that I couldn't do it was well as you two could. Beyond that, for all of his attempts to insult our intelligence, Sweet fails to notice his redundant blunder earlier in that very same paragraph.

Thanks for the props.

One of the many major problems that Jonathan "I Don't Have Autism!" Sweet has with the English language is hyperliteralism, a symptom exhibited by a large percentage of those with autism. He does not understand that context dictates which of a word's meanings will be inferred by the reader. He believes that the meaning he intends must be clear to everyone, even in the absence of any context at all. This issue is closely related to his well-documented inability to use colloquial and idiomatic expressions correctly, another symptom of autism.

His smugly pig-headed defense of his utterly indefensible errors is, of course, also symptomatic of autism.

Autism is sort of the cherry floating on top of his witch's brew of personality disorders.
 
Right now I'd love a text-file or ebook of all the ASU stories Doc and others unearthed. Sweet Bro is so astronomically pathetic it's getting hard to keep track of all the times he done fucked up.
 
"Living it up?" What? :lol:

Sweetums! We've been over this! No college student is going to want to be friends with a fat, retarded, smelly, creepy, and violent pedophile, and no college girls will want to have sex with an old, ugly guy with no money, even if he didn't have the other issues mentioned. There is no bargaining table, and you will never attend that mediocre school ever again. The only thing that will happen if mommy lets you mail out your terrible book is that you might get a visit from law enforcement, as others have mentioned.
 
I am utterly fascinated by Sweet's implication that the Herald staff of 1997 is still somehow involved in running the paper. I have never encountered someone who claims to be mentally normal who has such an incorrect view of how the world works. Even if they decided after 20 years that Sweet didn't commit plagiarism (he did), that doesn't change the fact that he went on a four-semester campaign of terror against people he thought had wronged him. Nothing will change that fact.

EDIT: I'm sure ASU has a statute of limitations on appealing expulsions and the like which has long since expired. Anyone with first-hand knowledge of Sweet's case, as @MrsFrizzle said has either moved on or died, and ASU is not going to waste resources on tracking down people from 20 years ago for some random sperg who's got a documented history of harassment.

I think it's also fascinating that Sweet thinks he can partly bribe his way back into ASU. With stuff he produces that doesn't really sell at all. Possibly full of references to dog anus.

More like 2 decades, but yeah, somehow Sweet expects people to overlook all the threats of pikes and bone knives because of a "gift-wrapped Golden Ticket."

Has this cover been discussed before? If not, WHAT THE BLUE FUCK IS GOING ON.
I was showing this guy's dA gallery to @Dork Of Ages and this came up and now I'm just very, very disturbed.
What's going on with the girl(?)'s tongue??! Did she bite someone else's tongue off?? Why is there a muppet with cleavage and an Alf nose? What's with the guy with huge knockers and 5:00 shadow? Back to the girl for a second, why is her glove shit-brown? Why is anything on this cover the way it is?

Sweet is convinced he is a skilled artist, when all he can do is mimic (poorly) what he's seen other people do. He's the Dunning-Kruger effect personified.

Is Johnny drawing pictures of ADF?

I'm guessing a poor attempt to draw in Looney Toons style. And from what I can deduce, the characters are the dog-catcher, totally-not-ALF and Sweet's brother, "Benjamin".

Okay, so, one of the most glaring pieces of evidence that Jon has autism is his sense of humor. You know how lack of Theory of Mind goes?
Theory of Mind is the idea that an individual understands that not all people think and experience things the same way. I saw Batman v Superman yesterday, I thought it was okay, bordering on meh. I don't know that @TheIceCreamMan saw it, but I know that if he did see it, his thoughts about the movie would be his own, even if we felt the same way about it. In other words, I may feel a certain way about it, but he does not have to feel the same way, because I understand that everyone has their own mind. Autistics have a problem with this, as we've seen with Christian Chandler often assuming that other people think, feel, and do the exact same things as he does.

What makes Jon unfunny - other than the fact that he's ignorant and hateful - is that he doesn't know how to tell a joke. He sees what he thinks is funny, copies it, then expects others to laugh at what he laughs at. It's important to note that he doesn't emulate it, as all artists must do to grow their ability, but merely steals it.

That's what's happening with the cover. Overall, it's is a parody of the movie poster for "Some Like it Hot", seen here:
Some_Like_It_Hot_poster.jpg


The joke is supposed to be that Gort and Ben are taking the roles of Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon, while the Cigar Guy is the Marilyn Monroe stand in. It's horrific and makes no sense. It's horrific because Jon is a crap artist who draws crap. He's a lousy, unskilled, lazy scribbler. It makes no sense because he expects the reader to both know who his characters are, and appreciate the fact that, in 2007, he's parodying the poster of a film that came out in 1959.

The ugliness and nonsensical imagery of the pic collides violently with the fact that Jon does not understand that his characters are not ubiquitous. He attributes his characters with inherent popularity, assuming that they are as recognizable and celebrated as Popeye, Pipi Longstocking, or the Hamburglar. Gort (a ripoff of ALF, which Jon directly admitted), Ben (supposedly his brother, but whose personality is a clear ripoff of the Tasmanian Devil), and that Cigar Guy are legends in his own mind (as is Jon himself), but in reality are nothing more than rip-offs badly drawn by a hack artist of other ideas (Cigar Guy - who's name I don't know - may be an original creation). Jon's familiar with them, Jon has them dressing differently than he normally draws them, Jon thinks this is funny, ergo, so you should too. That's his mindset. Remember when Chris drew a pic of Dr. Robotnik doing a dance and cracked up about it? Same thing here.


Jon lives exclusively in a very tiny world, nestled in that weirdly-shaped head of his.

It's a classic movie and a pretty famous poster. It was done in such a horribly shitty style, though, that it was completely unrecognizable to me. I only recognize it now when translated out of Jon's brain-charred idiom.

I'm sorry you've followed this guy enough to be able to recognize what the fuck he's doing when he plops out a turd like this. You'll never unsee any of this.
 
Sweet's statements about his hypothetical return to ASU seem to imply that he'll be instantly recognized and given his (imaginary) high status back. His lack of theory of mind would explain why he thinks that a bunch of kids who weren't born yet or were one at the most when he was at ASU the first time would know who he is. It similarly explains why he thinks The Herald staff of 1997 is still involved in running the paper to this day. He simply can't comprehend things at a college change. He's never going back, but it would be almost comical to let him set foot on campus and let him see how much it's changed, along with an entirely different staff and faculty.
 
I want him to step foot on campus, because a jail cell has to be cleaner than his actual room and there's a toilet right next his bed, so there's no excuse.
