Of course John "Shut Up, You Gross Fucking Aspie" Flynt is lecturing the world about being sensitive to people with autism. That's why he's a lolcow.

Defending Wu on this one, but that wasn't actually Wu. That was an SA troll whose username was SpacekatgaI. Lolcow Wiki points this out.

She did use the Autism Speaks kids though so freely hammer her over that shit.

God almighty, almost 1,000 pages of Brianna Wu. It feels like ... well, like 1,000 pages of Brianna Wu. My head hurts.

Honestly, though, I wouldn't make fun of her if she was actually taking all this extra time to FIX the damned game. Tweak the script, add some more gameplay, give us a reason to actually care about the story. But no, all she does is mess with the lighting over and over again. Is it because the lighting is the only thing she can change, since her lead programmer is gone? Or is she just convinced it's already perfect and is deliberately changing only little things just for an excuse to delay the release? Maybe a little from column A, little from column B.

Shine on, you crazy hag-diamond.

Calling it now, the game will be as well-optimized as Duke Nukem Forever.
 
Amen, Jaimas. Wu's an asshole, but let's be honest in our hate, this one isn't on Wu.

Nor was the following:
1. The Crash Wu account (SA)
2. Chatterwhiteman (SA)
3. Operation FalseFag II Anons (Frank Wu)
4. The user who tried to put Trans Samus in the Samus Aran article (Kadybat)

We strive to be legitimate in our mockery. On the rare occasions Wu isn't involved, we'll point it out.
 
Happy 1000 pages!

According to http://www.tweetstats.com/graphs/spacekatgal#tstats, since this thread was made, Brianna has tweeted 17,167 times.

That means that for every post on page 1000, Brianna will have tweeted 858.35 times. If she keeps tweeting the way she's tweeting, in 2 or 3 months, she will have tweeted more messages than we've posted laughing at her.

Great story from the rich son of white millionaires, acting like simply being IN the "poorest state in America" made JOHN FLYNT THE MILLIONAIRE'S CHILD some kind of poor minority.

Yep, it must have been very hard if the bio on her website is anything to go by: https://archive.is/jxNV6

Born in West Virginia, Brianna Wu was adopted into a family of religious, conservative Mississippians and moved there in the early 80s. Her father, a surgeon and entrepreneur, recognized her penchant for technology and enthusiastically supported her interest in technology any way he could — included classes and buying very expensive hardware. Wu has stated that some of her happiest memories as a child involved learning to program and modify computers her family bought for her. When the Sony Playstation debuted, her parents bought her a prototype “Net Yaroze” system that allowed her to make games and upload them to the Playstation hardware.

Yeah. Times were so tough in Mississippi that she sometimes ran out of space for the computers her parents kept buying for her.

Even at an early age, Wu took a strong interest in entrepreneurship. She had businesses at 15 out of her parents’ garage, modifying cars and computers. By at the age of 19, she dropped out of college to produce a $200,000 animated pilot — renting a house and turning it into a production studio

Implying her that the $200,000 was the results of the businesses she had been running, when in fact she had let slip in a tweet, now deleted, that her parents had given her this cash. Life must have been pretty fucking hard for parents to have a mere $200,000 to spare for their teenage photo-daughter's whim of starting an animation studio. Also, her track record in animation and games would suggest that fetish porn or meth are the only way she could turn a profit.

For her professional career, Wu worked a number of jobs related to the tech industry — frequently with emerging technologies. In the early 2000s, she became an expert in writing applications for Palm OS and producing websites with programs such as Dreamweaver and GoLive. She frequently held jobs with enterprise systems, and frequently did freelance art work with Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. She also worked multiple jobs in reporting and investigative journalism.

This has me curious. She doesn't mention any employment history on LinkedIn. Does anyone know where it is she claims to have worked?

As John Flynt: stuffing envelopes for Trent Lott, working at various college newspapers, and Socially Unconscious Productions.
As Brianna Wu: GameStop and Giant Spacekat.
No one's been able to find anything on her alleged PalmPilot or miscellaneous internet work.
 
Wait, didn't she brag about having millionaire parents?

People questioned her claim of being disowned, and people brought up this tweet: https://archive.is/IZEFa

She promptly deleted fucking everything that made her appear to be the product of an incredibly privileged upbringing. I made another post earlier on this page that quotes some bio stuff she put on her website and has probably forgotten about it.

And thanks, @Kosher Dill. GameStop, eh? Well, that's some serious tech industry experience. Seems like the work history of a typical kid of wealthy parents who doesn't actually need to earn a living.
