Yes. This title is the truth. I was brutally harassed by another member of the interwebs.
Cyber bullying is real. According to that fountain of knowledge, wikipedia, more than 43% of U.S. teens have experienced some form of cyber-bullying in the past year. And I am still a teenager. So I count.
I am not sure who this “Justin S” is but his trolling and threatening language made me too terrified to step foot on the internet again. I couldn’t even check my facebook for hours.
I will tell you how Justin S tortured me, but I warn you, it is not for the weak-hearted. If you are prone to vomiting during violent scenes in movies, are pregnant, or have a heart condition, I suggest you stop reading immediately.
It all started one night when I discovered Facebook Scrabble. Seemingly innocent enough.
There’s something you should know about Facebook Scrabble before reading this post that I did not before I began this game. Facebook Scrabble is not in real Scrabble time. In other words, it is considered uncouth to ask your opponent in a nice, friendly manner to “please go” because it’s been HIS TURN for 2 hours.
The point of the game is that you can make your play then go read a book, eat dinner, take a shower, kill a neighborhood cat, call your grandmother, check hipsterjew for any posts, and smoke a whole pack of Pall Malls. THEN, you can make a new move.
So, when I NICELY asked Justin S to make his move, I was unaware I had committed a faux pas that would lead to some intense bullying. I copy and pasted the conversation for your viewing pleasure.
Schlitz: who starts first?
Justin: I do.
Note he didn’t respond to my question until right AFTER he made his move. That should have been my first clue that he was a jerkface.
30 minutes after his first move:
Schlitz: you still there?
1 hour after my fifth move:
Schlitz: its your move I think.
1 hour after my sixth move:
Schlitz: are you still there?
After I had given up and fallen asleep:
Justin S: will u go?
Justin S: omg go
A clear indication of his improper use of English.
Justin S: omg lets ho
His frustration clearly starts to show as he randomly tells me to:
Justin S: settle the f down
Justin S, wherever you are, I hope you are OK with your obviously anti-semetic life decisions. Because this writer is not.
