Inactive Richard "Lowtax" Kyanka - Deadbeat (emphasis on "Dead") founder of Something Awful, forced out of his own community, on his second divorce, stuck his dick in crazy, "Birth Giver"

[Disgruntled Pupper]

I had a dream last night where the thread jumped hundreds of pages because evidence came out that Lowtax actually faked his death and Maplewife was in on it because she would get the money the patreon raised and he wouldn't have to give up his 92k pill money and in the post-waking haze I had a moment of confusion of if that really happened.

Guess not

 

[GoofTroop70]

it's not about legal action she was a headache for the admins back when she was an admin and so they don't actually like her they just can't say anything about not liking her or remind people why nobody liked her

OK new account that is definitely not Lowtaxs sidepiece registering under new accounts for attention lmao

The same things he was doing right up until he vaccinated himself against life. He honestly thought being a zany dipshit could paper over glaring faults about himself and that he could coast through life with that same zany dipshit persona. Having a shitload of maladjusted hangers-on didn't help, but he was too much of a dipshit to realize they weren't sticking around forever.

That 'zany dipshit persona' was a symptom of his crippling fear of taking anything seriously.

I think what's happened to SA was inevitable. Internet 'communities' that last long enough are eventually going to start rotting away like that. With SA, the rot was bigger, and it spilled over horrendously. Rich didn't do anything about this. He barely even tried. Anytime he ran the risk of taking responsibility for SA, he just hid behind his snark. Any time he faced resistance or had to stand up for himself, he just went "lol who cares" and immediately folded. He never committed because that meant sincerity, and sincerity is lame.

Even if he couldn't have saved SA, he could have done something, anything to help it or himself. Instead, he just sat there with an arched eyebrow and a smirk, and watched as a good thing went to waste. He clearly had the same attitude with every other part of his life, and he got the same results.

Instead of being sad, it's very frustrating to think about how things ended up this way. That's why when I think of Richard Kyanka, I imagine him trying to think of one last clever thing to say before he kills himself, and coming up with nothing.

We saw a great example of this when he briefly posted here on Kiwi Farms. He was perfectly happy to shitpost along with everyone else, but when he got asked serious questions or we touched on serious topics that made him the slightest bit uncomfortable or that he didn't want to talk about, the wacky-zany monkey ninja posting started. It was such a clear and obvious defense mechanism.

This. So much this.

 

[TurdFondler]

It was really weird because he would sperg out in earnest about his life on social media but it was alway woe is me type shit. He couldn't even play a consistent character.

 

[AnOminous]

lol this was less than 2 years ago, from dec 2019.
fucker didn't even live for 2 years after this.

Imagine literally getting cucked to death by a bunch of mentally ill men in dresses, while publicly sucking them off.

It also more or less worked for him when he was younger, quicker-witted and actually funny, but he had deteriorated with the drugs and booze to the point of just being bitter and incoherent.

This is why I'm glad he is dead. Early SA was funny and was worth lifting a finger to defend.

If Deadtax had one tenth the moral fortitude of Null he would be a multi-millionare internet icon.

Instead his daughters get to say goodbye to him in the youtube comments section fucking lol

Privately too, if his taste in hookers is anything to go by.

 

[Big Nasty]

I was actually surprised that he killed himself.

I expected a long drawn-out Max Wright-style slide into oblivion and perversion.

 

[BALLZ-BROKEN]

I'd have an easier time feeling sorry for him if he didn't do everything in his power to alienate anyone and everyone who ever loved him or respected him. His drug addiction(s) didn't do him any favors, but his biggest personality flaw is that he made poorly thought out, hasty, capricious decisions and when those decisions went pear-shaped, as poorly thought out, hasty, capricious decisions are wont to do, he got pissy and lashed out at everyone but himself. Instead of learning and growing from his fuckups, he just became a pathologically lazy asshole who just sulked in bed for days at a time. His whole life can be summed up in that old meme of the guy falling down the stairs going "IT KEEPS HAPPENING!!!"

And speaking of fuckups, you know LowT was the type of guy that got married because he wanted steady pussy, and when that pussy starts drying up (both metaphorically and literally speaking) he starting hitting up FB for broke brain booty. Fucker even had side pieces for his side pieces!

Lowtax definitely took it to the extreme, but the whole "everything is shit and if you care/try about anything you are shit" cynicism infected our entire age group as Gen Xers. It's so fucking annoying.

Most grew out of it, especially when we had kids. Then again, a daily pill addiction that could fund a small Bolivian state tends to prevent personal growth.

OK new account that is definitely not Lowtaxs sidepiece registering under new accounts for attention lmao

no but remember she didn't post anymore a long time before this. she had left the site except to talk about lowtax. there was the drama event she left in. the posts would still be there unless they are hidden now. so the admins would not care but they can't say that.

not using capitals is very sa i'll give you that

lmao fuck off Alice. Your entire involvement with Lowtax was that you were gullible enough to think him giving you a sob story about his life was some deep, meaningful connection when all it really was, was him trying to get you to send him pity dick pics. That's it. You have no further relevance to this thread or to the legacy of Lowtax than being an interactive way for him to engage in his noted troon fetish.

Speaking of, if you truly do care as much about his legacy as you virtue signal about on Facebook and Twitter, maybe take a step back and realize that you sperging out nonstop about how he was getting nudes from you while still married to his wife *confirms* that he was a skeezy, unfaithful deadbeat degenerate who was shitty to his partners. You've also sperged about how people shouldn't post mean shit about him for his kids sake; do you think it'll be that much better for his kid, when she's old enough and goes online to learn more about the dad she never got to really know, to read some deranged tranny's tweets at her mom about how she's so much hotter than her mom and bragging about Lowtax being unfaithful to her mom with you?

You have HRT'd yourself retarded if you think anything related to Lowtax that you've posted over the past two weeks is a good look. Log off.

 

[Dusty Old Bones]

Hey I haven't really posted here since I predicted suicide last year. I saw OD, I didn't see gunshot.

Congrats Rich, you finally took some initiative!

Well then stop being a coy cocktease and drop the fucking deets about Lowtax's Ex's. Give us some examples of them being the sadistic, greedy bitches you claim they are.

 

[Sparkling Yuzu]

Lowtax, Richard Kyanka (formerly) of Something Awful.

Troon name: Katie Kyanka

@12FluidOunces basically predicted this.

 

[Sabrina]

It's nothing it's just that Ashli isn't a goon, she isn't like us, she's nice and she's a normie. Goons fucking hated that they couldn't tell her to lurk or get out, and goon mods are just the ones that post more than the others so they get appointed because they're willing to waste their lives on an internet forum. Of course some kissed her ass so that just made the others more angry.

She was using a selfie as an avatar lmao. And yeah all the old posts would still be up and there's nothing particularly interesting about any of it

 

[CharlesBarkley]

Instead his daughters get to say goodbye to him in the youtube comments section fucking lol

100x replies- Dear China child. Your dad lusted after tranny ass and then killed himself because he didn’t want to give you, your sister or mom money. Lol.

but seriously, sorry for your loss.

 

[Mendicant]

He really should have ODed a suitable time after the ruling, because it would give some ambiguity to his actions for his kids' sake.
Hell, the ruling would give him a non-suicidal rational to write letters to his kids... so he could say goodbye without it being a obvious suicide note then peacefully OD a month or two later.

Permabanned from life and he got some troon bragging about sending him dickpics to his bereaved wife. What a fucking end, one of the worst possible outcomes haha.
