[The Taco Santo!]

he guy is super goony

As opposed to you, a real man's man.

now I just either need to A) Get used to being alone or B) Use my great looks and personality to find someone new.

Yeah, get used to using your hand, big guy.

what the fuck

 

[MirnaMinkoff]

Why did so many goons troon out? I posted there from 2002 to 2013 and kept reading posts until 2017 and I never questioned my gender. Was it because I never hung out in FYAD?

Porn addiction, anime and way too much time online instead of IRL socializing.

 

[Muskcarpone]

I did post a couple dirty photos of her

Pics or it didn't happen.

Don't forget the obvious social benefits of trooning out. Progressive stack is hard law there and going from a dreaded Cis White Man to the archetypal troon was inherently beneficial for the autists who were uncomfortable at their gender and race. It's the whole reason why Troon even became a term over the larger internet because every one of these types was obviously not going to pass and at worst, would use their autism powers to be the most vile kind of psycho to random people over the most inane shit. Of course, this was completely acceptable for them because they are the brave queer revolutionaries smashing the capitalist patriarchy upholding settler colonialism while all they actually do IRL is consoom.

For goons I think it was a desire to finally be accepted to whatever online group seemed cool and the fact trooning out got you instant acceptance and love bombing made it irresistible to a large section of lonely NEET goons.

Any fat lonely goon could get a cheap wig and play along online. How many actually went outside and went the full Troon Monty is an interesting question. The Jake Alley conundrum.

It also gave them much wider berth on what was now an acceptable argument to have, since you can't complain about not getting laid as a cis-het white man because that's being an MRA reddit chud neckbeard while complaining about how women don't want to touch your girlcock makes you a brave and honest queer against the TERF menace.

Dont forget the kiwifarms thread on "Kill it with Fire" its a good road map on what happened.

Basically a goony shulby dude becomes a teacher gets a girl friend and gives it all up because of online tranny cult.

 

[Never Scored]

The guy is super goony and she's gonna learn real fast that just because he does the sex stuff she likes and encourages her to go get laid doesn't mean he's going to be a great partner. He lives in a little attic apartment, drives a falling apart beater car (When she drove to see him, he told her they'd have to use her car all weekend because his wasn't going to make it), works a job even shittier than mine, and admits that he lives on oatmeal and PB&J because it's all he can afford/bother to eat... but she convinced him that he can manage to choke down some broccoli now and then covered in cheese and it won't hurt him

There's something poetic about the last fagmin of SS- a place where users ragged on Goons for being fags and cucks- getting cucked by a guy who quite literally sounds like a typical SA goon.

It's autism.

You can read something awful, you can post on something awful, you can talk about something awful (or speedrunning, or trains, or whatever) but it take a certain level of autism to make it a part of your actual life.

Part of the issue of Social Media is that it's curated - intentionally or otherwise. If you consume curated media constantly (like having SA or Twitter or Discord be your social life) then you start to get shaped by it and being trans is the most current version of the age-old phenomenon.

Normal people are fairly suggestible, Autistic people are extremely suggestible, and Autistic people who lock themselves into an incredibly shallow social circle are extremely suggestible. Something Awful may very well be one of the largest Autism Containment Zones ever created and Lowtax losing control of the site and having all of the various splinters pop up (4chan, 8chan, "Cool" twitter, tumblr, SASS, SoSe, Bread and Roses, and even Kiwi Farm's own divorce posting in this very thread) is just basically the movie "Jurassic Park" with Autistic Adults instead of Dinosaurs.

You see the same fad all the time - Transgenders are just the current one (although it's clearly falling out of favor, who knows what the next one is. Currently looks like "Assassin" is the one taking shape).

I would say tumblr had the social contagion of troonism worse because its members were younger.

The tumblr teens had their moment of euphoria on gender and ponies, with the dream that they could be more than the limits social defined gender and sex. Some FTM detranistion and write about how and where the ideas came from and why they did work out.

I ve been musing on this after speed reading a Royal Road Author. Its clear as she ages the themes of body dismorphia, closet lesbianism, slow moving world ending diaster covid/climate change and now fucking head mates show up in her work.

 

[Never Scored]

Oh man, what a day. Time to drive home in my beater to my attic apartment, eat some otameal and then choke down something covered in cheese. It ain't broccoli, though.

SASS used to have a badge system that awarded users for things like "Causing an SA mod to quit," "Causing an SA admin to quit," "fucked a lesbian," as well as at least six badges denoting which autistic branch of nazism you ascribed to. The man who cucked Aran would become an honorary member of SASS, but also awarded the "Cucked a fagmin" badge.

I have friends, but believe it or not I actually liked some of the SS guys enough to consider them friends. And as such, I shared my update with them.

For those who aren't initiated in the autistic world of SA derivatives, Aran posts on a SASS derivative discord and speaks primarily to the user "wow," a tranny who was banned from normal SASS discord for posting tranny porn.

Hey PCOS Bill as funny as this trashy information dump is I'd like you to know this guy made up an insane story about how he went to a wedding with his imaginary toddler daughter and she danced with him, he's also currently long term lying about owning a string of coffee chains in New Orleans which you should search if you want to lol. He's still red-hot angy about being banned from a forum of less than a dozen racist nonstarters that wanted to call Ozma fat until they died of old age/diabetes and I am 99% sure all he does all day is hang out in the public library alone muttering slurs to himself.

Or not.

Remember that no matter how shitty your late Gen X existence is there's always a guy who's 500 times goonier and more fail than you could ever be and also your personal stories as an elder chud including the hilarious pratfalls with your foxxxxy wifey are at least earnest and believable as a Trumpy trans-hater. Very Tim Heidecker in On Cinema quality to them and no lies detected considering the type of Guy you Are which I appreciate on a literary level. You were also correct that these mutants were too much even for you and you were correct to cut the strings on them, as evidenced by them being pissed 6 fucking years after the fact.

Great, Ashley's here. We're getting the band back together.

 

[Dafuqisdis?]

Oh shit I forgot I can't edit my posts here anymore.

Yes, technically I have been, in fact, been made a cuckold. Good job, you know what a word means!
She's starting an OF because she's an attention whore. I'm down 84lbs this year, I think hers finally edge mine out. She's a 30C, they're actually really nice.
Go mow your lawn
I've never sued an insurance company, but yeah I had a couple bikes hit while parked over the years and got a fair payout for them. That's not really insurance fraud, that's just bad luck and a shitty neighborhood.


Okay after this post right here, let's stop talking about my marriage. It sucks, it's over, I can't do anything about it but move on with my life or bitch about it and I'm done bitching about it here. If you really want to know more, PM me or message me on Discord, _keahi_ is my username there

No keep talking

*strokes cock menacingly*

"Normal" SASS Discord. "Tallest" midget. "Cleanest" landfill.

Sorry for dead naming you good sir.

Just lolled again remembering the time a mod challenged you to write a detailed post with sources about why Islam isn’t compatible with the west, and you did and goons got so mad about it they started a whisper campaign to get you banned because they couldn’t counter any of your arguments effectively

 

[Silas]

The mod also said it was well written if I remember correctly.

How the fuck are still enough SASS dispora to populate a discord let alone have a gay, tranny filled spin off one?

While he was writing a post to trigger goons, his wife was taking niggerdicks in every hole.

Its like the studying the blade post, but in this case "the blade" is nigger cocks.
