WHY FATRICK IS THE BEST LOLCOW AT THE MOMENT
Imagine a well written novel or story (something fatrick will never accomplish in his life). The reason people consider it valuable is that it offers a glimpse into the human condition. People are interested to learn about a dude blowing up a space laser with an x-wing in a galaxy far far away because they see a part of themselves or people around them in the face of said dude or his coked out girlfriend/sister. The reason people care about a deformed halfling speaking to himself is that he became that through his weaknesses and greed, qualities that they themselves possess. A good hero or vilain is someone the audience can identify at least a part of themselves with.
It is my contention that people are fascinated by lolcows IRL for the same reason. Sure it's fun to look at the 1218 dimension's Gollum shove his stylus up his ass and acting as the ultimate wigger on video, but most people view that as a spectacle rather than the story of a person to be invested in. As interesting of a sight a pig hollerin while people kick his ass around the world is, most people can't project themselves in that position of drunken fury and retardation.
The naivite of an autistic child believing childish shit, heavily invested in characters we ourselves liked as children, is a million times more compelling than the dark insanity of a broken man, heavily invested in his own dead father actually existing in a different dimension.
That is the reason why fatrick is the n1 lolcow right now, trumping strong contenders like Ethan Ralph and Cyraxx. A lot of us have been in the position of sperging out about issues we care about. Shit, i am doing it right now. Most people have found themselves raging a bit too hard about some political shit online.
The pathetic state he has brought himself into required nothing more than weaknesses most people possess. Many of us think too higly of ourselves, sometimes we wish we could fucking deal with people fucking with us online, sometimes we rage harder than we should.
There is just a little voice in our head that prevents us from going down that path. Learning from our socialisation, our own mistakes or those of others who have done similar shit, we are able to realise that this is a bad idea and stop. This is the only thing separating a normal person from a fatrick.
If a writter was asked to make a lolcow character out of a normal person, he wouldn't start with someone with severe physical or mental disabilities, or crazy behavioral issues. He would just need to give the average person the quintessential lolcow trait, the inability to learn, evolve and change course.
Only because HE JUST CAN NOT STOP, an average guy with an average carreer and an average life, in the span of a couple of years, turned himself into the fat faggot with bitch tits, the porque squeeler himself, aka the FATRICK TOMLINSON we all love to watch destroy himself every day.
PS. Null if you happen to see this it would be nice to have a spell checking feature, because for a lot of us English is our second language and we are shit at spelling. You can also hard code the word "internet" to be always auto corrected with a capital I while at it.
