Favorite Lolcow traits?

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
How a lot of them dislike Chris or other lolcows (Mylar's hate for CoolDudeClem for example), yet they share similar characteristics with each other.
I've seen this behavior in many weird creeps online: NUTJOBS DO NOT LIKE TO SHARE THE SPOTLIGHT WITH OTHER NUTJOBS. Most communities can only support one exceptional individual at a time, maybe two if it's a very large forum. When more than one cow has to share space with another, they become very passive with each other in an attempt to not engage.

It's for this reason I dont spend too much time thinking about what would happen if Chris met ADF, or anything like that.
 
I was thinking about making a "stuff lolcows like" thread simililar to "stuff white people like" but it looks like I got beat to it
I was considering doing something similar also awhile back also, but I never got around to it.

An obvious trait I've personally noticed among people these forums watch is an abnormal aversion to critics and "dang dirty trolls". Possibly fueled by ego.

I would say the predominant thing I've noticed in a lot of lolcows that have traits that I would consider a"favorite", would be their victim complexes, and their persecution complexes. It's usually their only recourse when they get caught, or people catch onto them. Backpedal and claim you are being persecuted and to feel sorry for you because everyone knows you aren't a special snowflake.

I was thinking about making a "stuff lolcows like" thread simililar to "stuff white people like" but it looks like I got beat to it:

1. Aside from Jace, most lolcows are straight edge and hate substance abuse with a passion.
2. Despite this, they have a very unhealthy lifestyle, especially when it comes to a diet that doesn't have much variety. Other than vegan SJWs, they shy away from vegetables. Most of them eat TV dinners and McDonalds every day.
3. As a result, lolcows tend to be either emaciated or obese from being under/malnourished.
4. lolcows also drink a shitload of pop, and seem to have a particular affinity for the many varieties of mountain dew.
5. Lack of hygiene is a big one. They usually consider axe body spray to be an acceptable substitute to showering.
6. Most of them are chronically unemployed and rely on government assitance/e-begging/or their parents to get by.
7. Speaking about parents, there are plenty of people on the autism spectrum or have disabilities/mental health problems who are functional members of society that don't make an ass of themselves on the internet. One of the biggest linking traits of lolcows is shitty parenting. Nick Bate's family doesn't believe in mental illness and think if they pray enough, their son will stop smearing semen-encrusted feces all over his apartment. Jace has Gail, who treats him like he's 20 years younger than his actual age. There's the infamous Borb, and the Golden Knight's mother seems to be just as inbred and delusional as he is and enables his shitty behavior.
8. Rampant homophobia despite many of them having gender issues.
9. The desire to be famous for the sake of people liking them and being motivated to create art/literature/music just because they want to be famous rather than a genuine interest in those things.
10. Aforementioned works usually have a Mary Sue/Marty Stu self-insert, usually in the starring role.

wow. Kai is 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7.
 
It all comes down to narcissism+incompetence. No matter what, they believe they're the best. They're always right. Everyone else is stupid, a hater, jealous for not being them. When you combine that with absolute incompetence at everything they do, you get a lolcow. The disconnect between what they are and what they believe they are is what's so funny. Both traits are necessary. Without incompetence, they're just another douchbag, hipster, "artiste," or whatever. Without narcissism, they just sort of suck at everything, have no presence on the internet, and are probably bagging groceries at 50.
 
For me, I need the triple threat: joblessness, still living with parents, and a grandiose sense of entitlement. Really it's mostly the entitlement I find funny though. And the weird thing is, I even felt that way as a child. I remember playing at the park when I was about nine and this slightly older girl came up to me and started bragging about all the wonderful presents the tooth-fairy brought her, including (but not limited to) a miniature motorized car, a barbie house, and a furby ( it was the 90's). I laughed my ass off, I just thought it was hilarious. All that over a tooth.

I just find deluded, spoiled people funny.
 
Their lack of self awareness, their tendency to get butthurt over trivial things, their ability to creep people out constantly, and the fact that they just keep digging further and further down.
 
They all have a desperate need for attention it does not matter if it is negative, positive, or detrimental to their own selves. This why they document every crazy scheme, deviant behavior, and their interactions with the larger world. They crave our attention because they chase off any person they know in real life and they know that we will be there to watch their freak show of a life for its entertainment value. While Chrissy screams and whines about the Da Trolls or this forum he knows we will still be here to watch him and that is why he can't quit the internet, trolls, and the CWCki.

Paranoia. like how Chris thinks everything that happens to him is part of a massive conspiracy headed by Megan. Or Jace and his "Gay Illuminati".
 
One trait that I actually do like is the blind optimism found in some lolcows. That no matter how bizarre, crazy, or stupid their pet project is, they think they can become successful with it. Now this obviously isn't helping them, but as someone who's reflexively pessimistic, I can see how it helps them get through the day.
 
My favorite lolcow trait is when they are hypocrites, and when you try to point out the fact that they are hypocrites the lengths that most of them go to backtrack or justify it are usually hilarious.
 
I just get a rise out of perverts, and digging into the internet trails thereof. That's why I like the small-time deviants, they're under-researched but they've got so much depravity to be documented.
 
Another one of my favorite traits is how some lolcows will go through great lengths of mental gymnastics just to explain their reasoning when asked things like "Why do this when you could just do this? It's much more simpler." or "Why not just ignore your trolls/haters?"

They'll never just ignore the haters. They seem to labour under the delusion that there's something they can say that will somehow cause all their haters to crumble into dust. It's not enough for the trolls to stop, they have to be defeated.

Acting like experts in fields they know nothing about.

I know someone who thinks he knows Japanese only because he has access to Google Translate (he seriously thinks it's better than "wasting time and money on language classes") and gets all blangry when someone who can actually read it corrects him.

This also describes art lolcows who think "realism" is unnecessary because "Picasso never did realism".
