All right everyone, need participants for a bit of punt-a-troll.
Withoug Hammy here, I've completely lost my own creative edge.
Come on. An interloper needs making fun of.
@Fullycaffeinated She should've given us all lessons before she left. And we should've made notes.
@sim Some twit who showed up on Spinster, utterly failed to read the room and proceeded to admonish us for wrongthink.
Punt-a-troll is a Spinster sport, sadly neglected since Hammy left. I was hoping to revive it.
You're free to join IF you're so inclined, you should be able to find him through my replies, I think he was Williams or Walter or something. Ws and As if I recall.
Here's a link to my last reply...
Note that I'm not encouraging a lynch mob.
Merely calling for a spirited game.

@sim Oh, it could be worse.
He's not the most embarrassing specimen we've seen on Spinster.
Yet. I'm willing to give him time, maybe he'll rise to the occasion.
@Gnomeshatecheese @sim I actually think he might be genuine. He’s certainly not a patch on Grandma, thus far.
@Gnomeshatecheese @Fullycaffeinated It’s a shame no one made a bot, but I guess she didn’t have the same fan base as Emma.
I welcomed him to the fediverse so we will see what happens next.
@Gnomeshatecheese @Fullycaffeinated I’ve just checked, she went off to uni in 2021. Are degrees three or four years in Canada?
I know, not terribly helpful. But my brother did a 3 year ba program and then had his masters in like 1-2 years.

@sj_zero @Fullycaffeinated @Gnomeshatecheese Oh, gawd, I didn’t think of a masters as well!
:(
@Gnomeshatecheese @Fullycaffeinated And another one: surely PissAnt must have finished writing up by now? Tsk. Slackers.
@sim @Flick @Fullycaffeinated It was glorious. And great to join in.
We still live in hope that Some Day Hammy Will Return.
She's the Spinster MEssiaH.
@Flick @Fullycaffeinated I KNOW.
I mean seriously. There are priorities.
@sim Well, I for one nearly got bingo already when he mentioned history not looking on us fondly.
One or two good hits and I get free coffee for a month. And I don't even drink coffee.
As an aside: I have started a post about coming here expecting progressivism to support our new friend through the traumas he is going through having discovered horrors beyond his imagination here. I, too, have lived with his plight.
@sim @Gnomeshatecheese @Fullycaffeinated @BCLADY if you need a refresher.
Where is the bingo card? You could turn it into a game to see if you can get him to say the things on it.
@sim I really should make real bingo cards... I'm pretty sure I saw a generator at some point.
I'm sure history will look extremely fondly on him however, for showing up on forums and Saying Things.
Oh, I'm sure! He is a goldmine for memes waiting to happen. I came here expecting progressivism.
@sim Or perhaps this one. With a touch more of pathetic.
@sim I tried very hard to figure out how to make a Spanish Inquisition meme work for this, but that would've involved some kind of double negative and I think that structure is too complicated for memes.
@sim Thank you. Sadly, I'm running low on suitable meme bases for now. But if I get more ideas, I'll do something with them.
@sim Harry Potter memes are very fitting when it comes to making fun of the TRA crowd. Basically like meming with their cryptonite.
@Fullycaffeinated @Flick @Gnomeshatecheese All praise HamMoon.
@AnungIkwe @sim I'm just making fun of the dudebro who came over here only to declare we're insufficiently "progressive".
In fact, he even said he came here "expecting progressivism".
Insert the tiniest fiddle here.
Personally, I don't give a whit about monikers like that.
I wonder how white he is. Is there a pic?
@sim You know, now that I think of it, I think I'm being a bit cruel.
I mean he does deserve our sympathies for being put through this hardship.
@AnungIkwe @Fullycaffeinated @sim I'm sure you see why I went on a meming streak.
Making fun of him was just too much of a temptation for me.
And it's fun.
@sim Oh ye gods, this was too awful, I just couldn't help myself.
I need to get off of meme generators.
@Fullycaffeinated @AnungIkwe @sim Packed. Packed, I tell you!!
But we shouldn't be too hard on him. I mean, he did have quite a culture shock. It cannot be easy for him when he is used to progressive yes-feminists and then stumbles across the radical feminists that are outspoken and will argue. Have to shut that down very quickly. Can't have feminists thinking for themselves, you see.
@sim @AnungIkwe @Fullycaffeinated It very much has the air of a Jehova's witness going to an atheist meeting, declaring everyone hellbound unbelieving sinners in scandalised tones, and then being shocked as the sharks in the crowd circle and start roundly mocking him.
Some of just smell blood in situations like this.
I do wonder how well he understands the fediverse too. Whether he was originally referring to spinsters or people from the wider fediverse. But then his doubling down makes me wonder if that even matters, especially with the buzzwords that he used. Time will tell how long he lasts too.
@sim I will not post the inquisition meme again... will not post the inquisiton meme again...
@sim @AnungIkwe @Fullycaffeinated I wonder how he ended up on Spinster in the first place, seeing as it's blocked by almost all of Fediverse for us being nazi Terfs*. Is it actually even possible to accidentally stumble on Spinster, without encountering some announcement first about how evil we are?
*In addition to this, we're apparently also "fake goths". Yes. I can back this up. From a description of "violent speech" spaces, see below.
Still, I have no idea where they got the fake goths from... lol. That couldn't be an Emma thing. Hmm...
I love that you are carrying this on. We can continue to have some fun. Although if he does come back and hasn't been scared off then I look forward to more memes.
@sim If he does come back, I'm posting the Chuck Norris one with the text "be more like Chuck Norris" accompanying it.
I don’t think he’ll like my views on trannies and I’m not even a feminist
