Lowtax posted it so lol.
 
In case the paywall is still up and anyone can't see the thread:

The Lowtax legacy that will follow the Kyanka name for a thousand years is 20ish really fucking stupid image macros, which incited so much exceptionalism that he had to eliminate them from the forums 2 weeks after he created them.

True, though they did end up pretty much creating the whole "silly image with text on it" format of meme. Though they were totally ran into the ground pretty quickly.

I'm sure his children and parents will be thrilled to learn that he feels he's "stuck" in Missouri because of them.

So let me get this straight. Canadian wife gets pissed off she can't go cry to a hospital about stress for free. She then talks about needing a change and possibly "going back to school" in her late 30s. Then Lowtax starts talking about a move to Canada, that he can't make, out of nowhere?

Looks like we get this divorce in real time!

Aspiring model wife nearing middle age is trying to not feel trapped and she isn't going to stay in shithole nowhere forever. Unhappy people always think that moving will make them happy. I give it two years before she is fucking 20 year olds and going to college in Ontario to try and desperately cling to her youth.

Even odds that such a 20yo is on the forums and brags about it when it happens, then gets banned by lowtax for it, then gets the ban reversed by FAU because the kid is a mod favorite and keeps bragging without penalty.

Nah this isnt 2003, remember how lowtax stole first wife from a goon at goon con granted that was the high of SA popularity. Find me a 20 year old fyad super star let alone a chad goon and I ll show you a unicorn.



And shitting on him for living in bumfuck MO never clicked with me, low coast of living combined with just shitting out articles woulda worked well for him.

His real mistake was being a lazy piece of shit who squandered all the fucking money he made and never reinvesting it back into the site.

I think his real mistakes were the multiple marriages and children. Had he kept his dick in his pants he could at least achieved parity wtih the other web 1.0 comedy stars living in an alcohol and pills haze while maintaining the respect (and a modest chunk of the income) of the nerds that grew up reading them.
 
It's especially cool that he apparently also puts no thought into his children's future. He doesn't even know where he himself will be in ten years with how things with his health and SA are going and he's in his 40s. "I guess the government will maybe do something" says former libertarian Lowtax. He's pretty white-trashy that way. The pitbulls kinda underline that whole aspect.

Dude struck out once lucky by the grace of god pretty much. That's all Lowtax is.
 
Its a shame I cant repost it but on a former goon offsite a member posted about how lowtax was pre planet quake his attitude really fit with what we have seen short version he just as lazy back then and people had to bully him to post his comedy writting.

and I guess your right that marriage number two was a bad idea.


anyway for content in the GBS thread about the starbucks shit a former star bucks manager posts this

I fear my hatred of FAU is gonna turn me into a cow.

Same friend, same.

My second biggest SA unanswered question is how the entire user base doesn't a-log FAU into the ground like they did with Abe and Ralp. Did those insurrections thin the mod sass herd too far?

To a degree, lot of people just moved to Skullmund and SomethngSensitive is my guess.

Since Lowtax is non-existent FAU and ZDR are the final word on Something Awful. Anyone who complains about them is either repeatedly banned until they no longer come back or permanently banned if they refuse to leave.

When FAU permabanned like six people simply for being republicans last year anyone who complained was instantly banned/probated for a month. After awhile if you decide to stay there you just stay quiet when they do shit like this.

And there are enough of their asskissers floating about that they'll find out about anything before it gets too far, least on SA.
 
I never could quite fit in on SA. I'm just not able to convince myself that bans and probations are just "part and parcel" of posting on a forum. It's always been so weird going there and scrolling through a thread and seeing easily half of the posters are banned.

It's just become so normalized as part of the culture there that mod behavior like that is completely expected. Even though FAU is really pushing it to ridiculous extremes, what are you gonna do about it? Nothing. You'll get banned.
 
the other issue with FAU that is that he is fucking schizo. For example are the bans just kinda a funny haha joke. Or is the forum serious business.

I find it odd that almost all thread in the QCS forum get closed. He does that awful "hey we admins are totally normal reasonable people our door is always open just email us we are friendly"

So if an issue comes up he will happily say "well we are here to enforce the rules please provide proof" and then just keep moving the goal posts till he s basically asking for a notarized confession written in the blood of a unicorn.

and if you magically bring the proof the thread will get memoried holed and he will fucking flip to his version of lowtax's wacky zanny "why so serious lol your just bad lol"

I soo want a face to connect to that name.

I was soo sad he permabanned yug.
