I beat this fuck-ugly kid up

My, um, fortnightly round-up of the twats on Flickr is only coming about because Flickr is down, I can’t sleep late and I feel like having a bit of a jibber-jabber.

The first example of how people on Flickr are increasingly wrong in the head, started happening about a month ago. I got home from an accidental drug-fuelled orgy at 7am one Saturday morning, to find a Flickrmail from ellipse asking me what I thought about becoming an admin in FlickrCentral. I’m not sure how to explain to a stranger just how fucked up this is, friends have described it as “as if they’d asked Martin Luther King to become President of the United States”, “one of the greatest pieces of humour I have ever seen”, “a massive fucking sell-out, you corporate cunt”. One of my mentors, Helen Keller, told me she never thought she’d see such a miracle in all her life!

The FC admins fannied about for weeks before actually promoting me, due to sheer laziness on their part, but they finally flipped the switch on Sunday night. Monday was great fun, a couple of my mates knew already but most people did not have a fucking clue what was going on. ACE.

I’m frequently labelled a “troll” and is as NIPSA as they come, but now I’m one of the boring cunts I once spent so long ridiculing. The world has flipped upside down, I tell you. Proof? I spent some of yesterday evening discussing dogging with Heather in FlickrCentral. That’s just not right.

The next thing I knew, Flickr staff were so insanely jealous of the excitement going on around me, that they steal my thunder by making their announcement about forcing old skool users to merge their accounts with a Yahoo ID. God, from the user reaction, you’d think they’d been told to rape their firstborn in the face with a AIDS-tipped shovel or something.

All I’m going to say on the matteris that being self-righteous and tedious doesn’t stop you from being a cunt. In fact, it guarantees you a place in the hallowed halls of Cuntdom, maybe with a little plaque telling passersby of your cunty achievements. I really should be working in a customer-facing role, yes.
