Artcow WogglebugLoveProductions / Cynthia Hanson / Cherie Anne Hapney - One Womanchild's Fruitless Quest to Make Her Cockroach Husbando a Household Name

[Smegma Gaming]

I'm so happy you guys are exploiting this new market for us sellers of Wogglebug merchandise, I'm happy to announce I've made a grand total of $600 from selling Wogglebug plushies and pirated Wogglebug films!

I'm sure she's angry with us right now, she's likely reading this, scrutinising every mention of about her demented Wogglebug. Cherie I think you're real fucking ugly.

Thank you for buying the products guys!

Not true, not if you want to lose weight. Most of the evidence suggests that eating less is more important for losing weight than exercising more.

Depends on your exercise routine and activity really. I used to work at the factory, where I lifted and moved around heavy boxes for 8 hours straight. I soon realized that I lost some weight even though I ate like a fucking pig, having a whole family size pizza for dinner and something sweet (and family-sized) for dessert. I also slurped sugary soda and energy drinks for extra energy during my shifts.

Hhhm, maybe Cinth should find a job at a warehouse. Even a retard could handle such a job and it would be good for her physique.

If you're a man, then, yes, but for a woman, no. It's harder for women to lose weight, because men have a higher resting metabolic rate because they have more lean muscle mass. Increasing your muscle mass in order to increase your metabolic rate is also easier as a man, because you have more testosterone.

If you're a sedentary adult woman like @WogglebugLover, you need roughly 1800 calories per day. If you want to lose weight you need less than that so you're in caloric deficit.

1 Domino's Hawaiian Pizza + 1 Domino's choc lava cake + 1 can of coke is roughly 1050 + 400 + 140 = 1590 calories.

Are you kidding? Fast delivery, professional prints on the discs, professional covers, supplementary materials on the discs, including content Cynthia removed from Youtube?
No, fren, we thank YOU!

I'm a woman tough. Maybe not being a sedantary 5'6 womanlet helps a lot staying thin. I don't envy womanlets, they eat so little and still can gain extra punds.

If I can do it, Cherie can do it too. Also she needs way more than 1800 cals to maintain her weight. Obese people generally have higher BMR. Also she can do way less exercise than normal people and still loose more weight. For her having a brisk walk with her inbred dog every morning would be a game-changer. But for that she needs to overcome her crippling agarophobia.

Hopefully yeah. I am an even shorter womanlet than Cherie and I am managing it, although I do have the buff of being above average IQ.

Let's be real, there are people here who will always hate Cherie just because she is genetically unattractive, fairly slow and autistic, and a fanfiction author. And it's fair for Cherie to ignore these people.

But there are also people here who don't hate Cherie, and also have better advice to offer her than anything she could get from mainstream social media hugboxes.

This is a difficult mixup for anyone in life, how do you tell bullies who just want to take their shit out on you, and will never like you, from well-meaning critics and advice-givers? How do you tell the difference between people who are saying things you want to hear for the right reasons from scammers and grifters who are just telling you what you want to hear in order to sell you something? It is especially hard for autistic people to tell the difference. Many autistic people fall into the trap of just ignoring all criticism.

If you say you have above average IQ, you don't. I should know, I'm a total fucking retard.

So, I‘m doing my bi-weekly ridiculous Twitter binge, and I’m getting a bunch of ads for Fiverr. This amuses me. Maybe they should use the Wogglebug films as advertising.

Every so often I come back here to check this thread (been following it for a long while now), and I have to say…the plushies are actually kinda cute. The only thing that needs a major improvement is the nose - it looks slapped on and is overall very unappealing to look at. It’s mainly at how it’s just attached at that weird side-view angle.

Also, I’ve recently been reading the Oz books (fellow Oz-autist here) for fun as I’ve never read them before. My mind is still fresh on the second book (I only just finished it a couple weeks ago), and it’s honestly pretty baffling to me to see just how different Cynthia’s take on the Wogglebug is from the original (and not in a good way).

I know others have said this, but the Wogglebug isn’t a great guy in the book. He’s not malevolent by any means, just ignorant and arrogant asf. Even when he first shows up, all he does is interrupt the characters’ journey just so he can brag to them about how smart and superior he is. He brings all of the characters’ irritation upon himself as he frequently makes insensitive comments towards them and is overall very condescending. He is somewhat humbled by the end, but not by much, and it’s only because Tip and co. told him to shut the fuck up more than once.

He‘s not misunderstood and never was, and I still can’t comprehend how Cynthia saw the other characters as irredeemably cruel to him. Maybe it’s because they actually gave him a dose of reality rather than continue to coddle him and stroke his ego.

Im pretty sure the Wogglebug in general was poking fun at those who think that going to a fancy school or having some artsy fartsy degree makes them better than everyone else. (and I remember hearing that Baum in general was one to frequently take jabs at the fancy bigwig authority crowd & the military in his books as he was never really fond of either.)

Having my mind refreshed with the book, it’s weird to see how much Cynthia‘s bastardized the source material, to the point where it may as well not matter anymore. It’s actually kind of fascinating.

It’s intriguing how the human brain can latch onto super-minor elements in fictional work. I think most of us have characters we rank among our favourites who were never intended to be the centre of a viewer’s attention. Just ask me about Jones from the obscure 1980s comic Comet Man by the guy who played Will in the original Lost in Space*. Cynthia is probably just what that tended y with the brakes cut and nothing else to distract her.

*Earth X is bullshit in many ways, but one plot point in particular you can only know is bullshit if you’ve read Comet Man.

This is pretty common for Oz fans to get this view and impression of the Wogglebug. They just don't understand him the way I do. I guess it was just that I was never really an Oz fan (certainly not of the books anyway). And for anyone here who may still be confused thinking otherwise for any reason, here is the thread at The Royal Forums of Oz that my former publisher Chris Dulabone started as an apology to his fellows about bringing me there shortly after I got myself banned from there on purpose after I cut ties with him just before. It's from 2013.

From the link:
I got yet another e-mail from you-know-who today. I would have posted it here, except that it contains language that I didn't think anybody needed to read.

Do you still have the text from that e-mail? History will need it one day when Wogglebug has become a beloved character smiling from the walls of every children's room, and we need to learn about the struggle for him arriving in his much deserved place.

Um…what?
‘It’s not a “view” or an “impression” of the character when it is literally what’s written in the book. Baum’s writing style was never overly subtle/wordy nor was it overly simple either. It was clear and direct, so it’s pretty easy from the get-go to determine his characters’ personalities, goals, quirks, etc. And I can tell you point-blank that it doesn’t take a genius to understand the Wogglebug’s character either. and he’s certainly not what you describe time and time again.

Its one thing to do your own interpretation of a character/story - I’m honestly fine with that - it’s another to boldly proclaim that you know a character better than the character’s own creator. You didn’t create him, this is only your take on him.

and don’t you think that’s rather rude to take someone‘s work, act like it’s yours and yours alone, and claim that you “understand” and know it better than the original artist does?
It’s one thing to improve upon/flesh out a preexisting story/character that may have been flawed or underdeveloped.
But this isn’t that— this is just taking someone’s work and being disrespectful about it.

That's autism for you. She can't "read" people, like, at all. If someone says they are a gentleman and a scholar it must be true, she's incapable of comparing those words with their actual actions and finding those statements to be false. So in her view Oz's Woggy is a gentleman mistreated by others for no reason.

I wonder if there’s a timeline where Gregory Maguire is just as nuts about his version of the Wicked Witch.

Also, I look forward to Cynthia getting into The Boys and building an insane personal franchise around Popclaw or Mesmer or one of the other bit supes.

I love that you remember this exact interaction, have the link to it, and share it with us when it really doesnt make you look very great at all. But it does show you have been extremely...single minded...for a long time now.

Thanks for posting! It is clear you do not properly understand or appreciate the many virtues of the Wogglebug, possibly because you are in some way intellectually disabled. Don't worry, though. You're still welcome to keep posting on the thread.

Thank you for buying the products guys!

I'm sorry for bringing it up here but I have a complain to make. See, I left my Wogglebug plushie I bought from you with my wife. For some unknown reason when I came home my Woggy was... noseless. She said she was just playing with it and it somehow fell off. Can I please have a replacement toy? I think the one I got was defective.

I don't care if it is disrespectful. That is in a way the point of it. The Wogglebug is a sweetheart and a hero. And the other characters around him suck. It was really them who were the ignorant and arrogant bastards the whole time and not him. Even if he wasn't in that book or series at all I still wouldn't have liked those characters as they were. I really do think that the Wogglebug is superior enough to them that he has a right to insult them, and so do I.
