This one wasn't entirely personal, but on the other hand it wasn't one that caused me any great distress. I used to be quite active in Project Chanology, the anti-Scientology movement within Anonymous. Now, I need to explain a bit about the Church of Scientology's PR guys. They are dreadful. They are hilariously naive. The CoS' idea of damage control is "deny everything." And that's it. They literally expect people to believe what they say without question, regardless of what the evidence is against them, regardless of the other side's arguments. If you have follow up questions, they're absolutely stumped.
Anyway, there was, or possibly still is, a website called Religious Freedom Watch. This was so filled with fail that I've spoilered this post because it goes on forever.

The CoS is very much into religious freedom, by which it means "we want to be exempt from all the laws and standards of behaviour that govern everyone else because we're a religion." Case in point, there's currently a fraud lawsuit against the Church going through the courts in which a parishioner donated money to fund a particular part of a project, only to discover that that part of the project had been paid for many times over by different parishioners. The CoS are arguing that because they're a religious organisation, it needs to be dealt with through their own arbitration system, which amounts to "You're opposing the Church so you're evil so by our own rules we don't have to give you nuthin'."
Religious Freedom Watch was supposedly an independent website set up by a group of concerned citizens who were worried that religious freedoms were being eroded. Oddly enough, though, almost the stories relating to religious freedom they put up were to do with Scientology in some way, with maybe a couple that the webmaster had found by Googling "religious freedom" just to perfect the airtight illusion.
They had a lot of items on "anti-religious activists," who were invariably critics of the CoS (and many of whom were still Scientologists, albeit independent. These features would always be illustrated with literally the worst photo they could find - poorly lit, out of focus, with an angry or tired expression. The features themselves were always the same. There would be a lot of passive-aggressive sorrow ("It's a shame that one with so much potential should be driven to bigotry," "Unfortunately, her low intelligence meant that she was vulnerable to such persuasion") and any dirt they'd managed to dig up, regardless of its relevance.
The funniest profile, for us, was what they had to say about Anonymous. They literally had no clue how to deal with Anonymous. There was nobody they could attack, smear or intimidate directly, so they decided to try to portray us as an evil terrorist organisation, with lots of quotes from unnamed members about how they were planning to destroy society and they lived only for hate - real cartoon supervillain stuff. We found this hilarious, given that the London protests (that I participated in) might best be described as "Pythonesque" with bizarre slogans and cake for passers by.
Our favourite part was the forum. It was very clearly run by one inept guy, who was also everyone posting on there. All the "posters" had portentous and noble names like "Another Man's View, " "Clarion Call" and, when he'd run out of ideas, "Drum." The threads were much like the profiles on the main site, passive aggressive and predictable. A typical thread would be something like,
ANOTHERMANSVIEW: I see Anonymous are still causing trouble.
TRUMPETOFFREEDOM: Yes, it is a shame that they are dedicated to hate.
DRUM: Yes, it is probably because they are uneducated.
They would also attempt to dox individual members of Anonymous in the hope of frightening them away, with similar ineptitude. For example, there was one they believed could be identified by her "dyed blue hair." Her name on the forum was "Blue Wig Girl." Most Anons took it as a compliment to be so singled out.
Naturally, such a source of hilarity got its own thread on the Why We Protest forum, which the webmaster of RFW followed religiously (har). We realised this because we noticed that that a lot of the "discussion" on RFW related directly to things we'd said on WWP. For instance, I posted that I felt sorry for this poor guy who was probably being paid peanuts to do a crappy job, and that was followed by a thread on RFW that basically said:
MARCHOFFREEDOM: Ha! Apparently Anonymous think there's only one person posting here!
FREEDOMFORALL: Ha! I heard they think we're getting paid to post here!
DRUM: Ha! How foolish they are! Nothing could be further from the truth!
These posts all appeared at the same time, by the way.
So once we realised this, we had a lot of fun pulling the webmaster's strings. We started addressing him directly. We pointed out that if he changed the time stamp on his different posts, it would be less obvious that it was just one guy (he duly did, but he never got out of the habit of making all his posts at the same time every day). I pointed out that it was odd that the forum had nothing on the issues affecting religions other than Scientology, prompting a flurry of threads which went along the lines of:
FLAGOFFREEDOM: Islam/Hinduism/Christianity/Judaism/Sikhism is a very interesting religion.
ACCEPTANCE: Yes, very interesting.
DRUM: Yes.
This sort of trolling went on for a few weeks. I don't know if it was a deciding factor in the site's downfall, but in one of the doxing attempts, the webmaster listed all the negative traits they could find about one of the Anons, including the fact that he was bisexual. This of course got publicised widely by Anonymous, because the CoS is known to be extremely homophobic but absolutely denies this to the outside world. Soon after, the forum disappeared.
The site may still be active, but last I looked it hadn't been updated in over a year.

Interesting story. And you pointed out something I've always observed about Sci-Logs: they're both incredibly vicious towards critics, and laughably inept in dealing with the smarter ones. I think this is because their doctrine holds that all human beings outside of the Co$ are: 1) insane; 2) stupid; and/or 3) dangerous, and the calculated paranoia inculcated in the Faithful leaves them woefully inadequate to answer critiques with anything other than character assassination or harassment campaigns.
When it comes to First Amendment protections for religious groups, I'm as close to a pro-freedom absolutist as you'll find in this fair Republic. But let's face it: the Co$ is an organized-crime syndicate, disguised as a profit-making business, camouflaged as a religion, pretending to be a self-help system, and should be treated like the destructive scam it is.

Absolutely. Anyone who criticises the Church is literally as bad as Hitler, according to Scientology's own classification system. Scientology supposedly provides the only means to bring about a sane world (and incidentally, how awful must it be to convince yourself that the world is such a horrible place?), ergo every non-Scientologist is insane. Scientology provides the tools to unlock the potential of the mind, ergo all non-Scientologists are stupid. In reality, though, the "technology" is just a series of prescriptive methods invented by L. Ron Hubbard that must be followed to the letter. Because they're "scientific," they cannot fail and if they do, it's your fault (but the Church will help you find out where you're going wrong, for a price).
To anyone outside the Church, though, the "tech" for dealing with opposition is actually very juvenile. Hubbard was extremely immature. Winding a person up until they lose their temper is a common technique (although as they normally work themselves into a frenzy so doing, it's easy to turn the tables). Another is the belief that lying by omission or implication is not actually lying and therefore okay.
For instance, there's a controversial Scientology policy that was known as "Fair Game," which basically meant that when it came to dealing with critics, anything was justified up to and including murder. When this got out, Hubbard issued a retraction, saying that the policy was no longer called Fair Game, but the policy itself was still in place. So if you ask Sci-trolls about Fair Game, they'll say there's no such policy, and in their eyes they're telling the absolute truth even though they know damn well that it's still practised. That's the level we're dealing with here.

That's the level we're dealing with here.
Often, though, they don't mind being trolled because it counts as a "stat" that can be counted towards their productivity for the week. Stats are taken at 2.00pm on a Thursday, so just before then you'll quite often get Sci-trolls attempting to provoke a response out of you. I tend to either ignore them until the next day or just say, "Here's your stat. Now bend over to receive David Miscavige's tiny cock."
I don't know if they still have to report all insults directed towards David Miscavige, but what the hell.

Eesh I have a few tales I could tell about a woman I used to work with. She was a tiny Indian lady (literally like 4'5") in her late fifties who was painfully autistic but who had probably never been officially diagnosed.
There were many pains of working with her, but it was all made far FAR worse by the fact that she was the wife of my boss. Ergo you couldn't tell her to shut the fuck up, or go away, or suplex her through a table if she was bugging you. Her husband was a great guy to work for and just a generally great guy all round, but he would defend her to the hilt in any arguments she had. I don't quite think he realised how terrible she was at her job, and how she actually lost him a bunch of time and money by being there. Why a good guy like him ever married her I don't know.
She suffers from the diabeetus, but sulks like a child when she has to do anything about it. She is constantly scarfing down cakes and buns and then getting in a shitty mood when her husband snatches them away from her and reminds her that she will go blind or lose a foot if she doesn't pack it in. Often she can be found just sitting in the server room 'not feeling very well' because she refuses to stop eating sugary snacks and will not drink any water. I'm not just talking for half an hour or whatever, I mean she has literally sat in a chair, on her own, in an empty room, for a full 9 hour work day because of this.
Don't even get me started on her kids. I feel sorry for them because she has turned them into lolcow material too. They have been molly-coddled their entire lives, and even though they are in their 20's they still refer to their parents (in front of anyone, in public) as 'mummy and daddy', and are completely incapable of doing anything for themselves. We had to close up early at work one day because one of them was throwing a tantrum about their haircut and they had to go and sort it out. I shit you not.
I'll wrap up to say I can periodically spill stories of her in here if anyone is interested, there are probably dozens if not more. Many of them revolve around other staff members fucking with her because she annoyed them so much. Thanks to these forums and the wiki I am glad to say I was very much a 'look but don't touch' observer of events.

Alright me start this off by being a sperg/nerd. I run a private WoW RP server. It's a small community thats been around forever and I was handed control over just a few months ago. As you can guess...it can get infected with the Tism from time to time but everyone is pretty cool and laid back. But there is one guy who has been on the server forever, one guy who has earned everyone's hatred and the only reason he hasn't been banned yet is because he is basically our Connor. This is the story of Dave.
Now Dave has been with the server before I even ended up on it. While everyone treats it as a hobby, he treats it as his entire fucking life, even refusing to get a job at one point because it would have "interfered with his server time". Eventually his Mom got pissed and made him get a job...which he did but turns out he can bring his laptop to work as an insurance salesman and gets on the server anyways.
His in server exploits are not really that noteable, besides saying he tried fighting another female character using defensive rape, creepily stalking new female members to cyber with, and basically begging this one British member to have sex him. He's a borderline online sexual predator and again the only reason he hasn't been banned is because he is like our Connor and because the member he harassed didn't want him banned out of fear he might harass her.
IRL though he becomes less horrorcow and more lolcow. A "friend" of his stopped by in our old Vent once and told us stories of Dave, ones he confirmed himself. One story was he was at a sleep over once, brought his laptop and started masturbating in a room filled with his friends....with the lights on and everyone still awake. Needless to say he was not invited over again.
Another story has him as another friends birthday party. Everyone was hanging out in this kids sister room and Dave tried to be a funny man. Dave tard screamed and jumped on the bed, breaking the frame and smashing the wooden boards underneath. Dave is a pretty big guy(Bane?) so you can guess everyone was pissed at him especially the mother for breaking her furniture.
But the best stories come from Dave himself. He told us once he had just had surgery and whatever they used made constipated. So instead of getting a laxative or maybe eating some fiber....he shoved a broom up his ass to get his shit free and the handle broke. His next few hours were not pleasant in his words. Another one of his stories is that he decided to try on his mothers panties for shits and giggles once only to have them tear completely off and him having to explain to his mom why they were torn.
I have ALOT more on Dave but I'd have to go back and reread some old logs to make sure I get everything straight and don't miss any of the truly funny stuff. Expect more to come in the next few days as I revisit them and laugh my ass off.

Another Scientology one from me, vaLLarrr. Now, vaL has a page on ED, but it hasn't been updated in about five years and in any case is only really of interest to Chanology spergs...
I first came across vaLLarrr when I was casually browsing YouTube and came across this Scientologist generally being a total prick to everyone. I pointed out that he/she was making Scientology look really bad, and got a juvenile insult in reply. So I read some more, had a look at his/her profile and came across the ED page.
Basically, vaLLarrr is an account used by the Church of Scientology for shouting down its critics on YouTube. When I first joined, the story behind vaLLarrr was that she was a middle-aged former Catholic originally from Ireland, and her YT profile said that she lived in the Vatican (?) and had a number of generic inoffensive videos as favourites.
vaL was, in a word, insane. In many ways the perfect lolcow - petulant, childish, arrogant, incapable of acknowledging any mistake, not very clever, easily riled and absolutely devoted to a cause. The most obvious quality she had was a very distinct writing style that consisted almost entirely of copy-pasted phrases, often using eerily dated slang. About 50% of her posts would begin, "gee. good thing..." and most would end with either "LOL" or "so?" After talking to her for a while, assuming you hadn't left in frustration (which would of course be claimed as a victory by vaL), she'd start to get ANGRY and post CERTAIN WORDS in BLOCK CAPITALS. Her copy-pasting would go out of control and she'd become even more nonsensical than usual, e.g:
gee. good thing you CAN'T prove ANYTHING
and good thing you're an idiot
so?
and?
so?
The one thing she could not stand was to be outdone in any way, and a good way to fuck her up was to simply change the game halfway through. So I'd start off debating fairly seriously on something, and get her really frothing and then, once I'd got her POSTING in BLOCK CAPITALS, I'd say, "Oh, okay, guess you're right. I don't know, I don't really think it's worth getting worked up about, it's only YouTube." This would provoke frantic backpedalling in which she'd assert, "gee, good thing I don't CARE at ALL. and good thing it's YOU who shouldn't be getting WORKED UP. so?"
vaLLarrr was also very pretentious, and fond of posting Latin quotations. I figured she probably couldn't speak Latin, and I can (up to a point), so I would usually respond to her Latin quotes with a juvenile insult towards David Miscavige (the head of the Church of Scientology, of whom Scientologists are not allowed to say a single negative word), e.g. "Well, vaL, that's all very well, but I believe it was Cicero who said, 'David Miscavige est pumulus iratus intoxicataque,' or 'The correct phase in the correct place.'" vaL would protest that that wasn't the quote at all, but her inability to speak Latin and her ban on using Google meant that she couldn't actually say what the insult was - so of course, I'd ask her what she thought I'd actually said. More froth.
Initially I tried debating her on Scientology, but after a while it became more fun to just dick with her. The thing is that vaL would be posting literally 24/7, with a handful of half-hour breaks. If one of these breaks fell in the middle of a conversation, on her return she would demand that you restate what the topic of conversation was. This seemed weird at first, but the reason soon became clear - there was more than one person using the account, and they weren't allowed to read what their predecessor had written. Incidentally, this was probably why there was such a reliance on copypasta - so the different writing styles wouldn't be so obvious. So fun could be had by simply refusing to give any specifics - repeatedly saying, "So, vaL, what's your take on this matter?" could again cause vaL to get blangry as she tried to figure out what she was supposed to be giving an opinion on or to change the subject.
As I say, the vaLLarrr character had an official backstory, but it wasn't very well fleshed out. Depending which vaLLarrr you got, she either lived in the city, by a lake or in the mountains. She worked in a very high-powered job, she was independently wealthy and didn't need to work or, on one memorable occasion, claimed to work several full-time jobs. This all culminated in what I and my fellow vaL-fans called "the Porterhouse incident." After a twenty-minute disappearance, we asked what she'd been doing. She claimed to have been out for dinner with friends, at which she had enjoyed a delicious Porterhouse steak. It was pointed out that she'd been gone for twenty minutes, which did not seem very long for dinner with friends. It was also pointed out that she lived out in the countryside according to a post half an hour earlier and so could not have got to any high-end restaurants in that time. And so forth.
Shortly afterwards, the vaLLarrr account changed. It was stripped down to bare bones - no videos, no personal details, no favourites, nothing. From this point on, vaLLarrr refused to answer any personal questions whatsoever, up to and including "Are you male or female?" Also any questions regarding his/her involvement in Scientology. So s/he would assert that Scientology was amazing, but if you asked him/her for examples of how it had helped hir personally, s/he would again refuse to answer.
I kinda blame myself for the decline in vaL between then and now, because I discovered a fun thing to do was to use vaLLarrr's own copypasta phrases against hir. This rather stumped her, because the users of the account honestly seemed to believe that their deception was flawless - how on earth could this awful troll have figured it out? But for vaL to accuse me of stealing hir copypasta would be to admit that there was copypasta in the first place, and not the spontaneous responses of a well-adjusted and successful Scientologist. So individual copypasta phrases would be phased out as I used them. For instance:
"I don't know why you're getting so worked up, vaL. All I said was that I was wrong about Scientology being a homophobic organisation, because David Miscavige is clearly gay himself.
what's wrong with that?
nothing whatever?"
resulted in the retirement of "what's wrong with that? nothing whatever?"
vaLLarrr is still active, but not very. S/he lurks on YouTube, occasionally leaping out on critics and quickly disappearing. With little copypasta left and tight limits on what s/he can actually talk about, hir teeth are pulled.
Basically, vaLLarrr is an account used by the Church of Scientology for shouting down its critics on YouTube.

If one of these breaks fell in the middle of a conversation, on her return she would demand that you restate what the topic of conversation was. This seemed weird at first, but the reason soon became clear - there was more than one person using the account, and they weren't allowed to read what their predecessor had written. Incidentally, this was probably why there was such a reliance on copypasta - so the different writing styles wouldn't be so obvious. So fun could be had by simply refusing to give any specifics - repeatedly saying, "So, vaL, what's your take on this matter?" could again cause vaL to get blangry as she tried to figure out what she was supposed to be giving an opinion on or to change the subject.
As I say, the vaLLarrr character had an official backstory, but it wasn't very well fleshed out. Depending which vaLLarrr you got, she either lived in the city, by a lake or in the mountains. She worked in a very high-powered job, she was independently wealthy and didn't need to work or, on one memorable occasion, claimed to work several full-time jobs. This all culminated in what I and my fellow vaL-fans called "the Porterhouse incident." After a twenty-minute disappearance, we asked what she'd been doing. She claimed to have been out for dinner with friends, at which she had enjoyed a delicious Porterhouse steak. It was pointed out that she'd been gone for twenty minutes, which did not seem very long for dinner with friends. It was also pointed out that she lived out in the countryside according to a post half an hour earlier and so could not have got to any high-end restaurants in that time. And so forth.
Shortly afterwards, the vaLLarrr account changed. It was stripped down to bare bones - no videos, no personal details, no favourites, nothing. From this point on, vaLLarrr refused to answer any personal questions whatsoever, up to and including "Are you male or female?" Also any questions regarding his/her involvement in Scientology. So s/he would assert that Scientology was amazing, but if you asked him/her for examples of how it had helped hir personally, s/he would again refuse to answer.
I kinda blame myself for the decline in vaL between then and now, because I discovered a fun thing to do was to use vaLLarrr's own copypasta phrases against hir. This rather stumped her, because the users of the account honestly seemed to believe that their deception was flawless - how on earth could this awful troll have figured it out? But for vaL to accuse me of stealing hir copypasta would be to admit that there was copypasta in the first place, and not the spontaneous responses of a well-adjusted and successful Scientologist. So individual copypasta phrases would be phased out as I used them. For instance:
"I don't know why you're getting so worked up, vaL. All I said was that I was wrong about Scientology being a homophobic organisation, because David Miscavige is clearly gay himself.
what's wrong with that?
nothing whatever?"
resulted in the retirement of "what's wrong with that? nothing whatever?"
vaLLarrr is still active, but not very. S/he lurks on YouTube, occasionally leaping out on critics and quickly disappearing. With little copypasta left and tight limits on what s/he can actually talk about, hir teeth are pulled.

I guess what I have to offer counts. As per usual, you guys are the judge.
Several years ago when I attempted an engineering tech degree at a community college, I discovered there was a strange guy on YouTube shitting on atheists. Now this wasn't a typical fundie, which by then I was used to and had a year's experience tackling. This motherfucker called himself Cassius and he claimed he was a Plejaren alien, come to destroy all atheists in hell and bringing Earth to a new age where everyone followed Judaism and/or "ancient Christianity".
There was a small group of us that decided to troll the everliving fuck out of him (One of us had managed to find an alleged real name: Elliot Brown) and I managed to ingratiate myself to him for a small amount of time so that during one of his BlogTV sessions (back when that was still a thing) I was a sort of moderator. At this point he started calling everyone with a decent amount of looks and who weren't obviously trolling him "Handsome" and getting kind of, well, weird. He even got pretty close to pedo-ish in his cult-like ramblings, and by that time it got so bad that if he wasn't a troll, it'd be kind of horrifying. I got on vid with him to ask a few questions (as much of a fucking dork as I am, I asked about his alien technology) and on the third question, I ranked up everybody that I was aware of being an overt troll (which was the best thing I could do). He got pissed, naturally, and then I got on his "evil atheists" list.
During his tenure as a worthless little youtube fuckstick, he jumped between no less than six to eight channels, each time either closing them when he had a tantrum or getting them suspended through his actions, each time creating a new one and making his little game of pretend a little more ridiculous. A few times he's even posted clips from old ass movies and other shit like "Planet of the Apes", this one time doing a voice-over relishing the "fact" that humans were being killed in it. Of course in his little role he pretended it was real or something.
At around the halfway point of this silly shit, he started claiming he was the messiah, even claiming he was Jesus. He also jumped on the 2012 bandwagon. It wasn't long before I just gave up thinking he took himself seriously. He hasn't had much activity since 2010 in fact. To top it off there's a rather shitty ED article on the whole foolish mess.
Thinking back on it, some of the trolls involved in fucking with him might have been even better lolcows than him.

Ahh, personal lolcows. This is gonna be fun.
I've had several, including one who, were he still around, would probably be completely worthy of his own thread. Let's start with him.
I have a couple more but I'll save them for later, because I'm tired and I don't feel like writing up more right now.
I've had several, including one who, were he still around, would probably be completely worthy of his own thread. Let's start with him.
(Note: I might have his name improperly capitalized, but I don't really care.)
Many, many years ago, I was active on the Homestar Runner Wiki Forums--back between 2005 and 2008, so between the ages of 12 and 15. (The age thing is important, since it kind of explains why so much of what happened is really fucking stupid.) At one point, about midway through my time there, we had a member named Clan RhRn, or just Clan for short.
Clan was the epitome of the "I have Asperger's so I can't help being a shithead" archetype, in a lot of ways. Since I myself am on the autism spectrum, I found this both obnoxious and kinda offensive. He had a crush on me for a while, and was a bit obsessive about it (though not to the extent that Nick is), so naturally I just hated him even more, especially after he wound up working on a collaborative fanfic with me and several other people. (Oddly enough, said fanfic is how I wound up entangled with Nick, but that's not important to this specific story.)
Now, seeing as how most everyone involved was in their early teens, the quality of this fic was unimaginably awful self-indulgent crap. However, Clan's contributions were so bad, and he was so obnoxious, that he actually got banned from the project completely. Around this time he decided he hated me (among several other members of the HRWF--more on that part of the story later), and would often try to needle me through his fanworks--which didn't work, because the poor quality was more funny than it was insulting.
Clan also became something of a laughingstock on the HRWF, seeing as how he was utterly obsessive about everything (to a degree that even I found obnoxious--keep in mind that I was 13-14 at the time, autistic, and annoying as shit, and he was still more annoying than me), really stupid, self-aggrandizing to an amazing degree (claiming at one point to have an IQ that was higher than the highest recorded IQ, for instance--I should also note that every time he brought up his IQ, the number would change, so yeah, he wasn't even consistent with his bragging), and incredibly rude, including towards mods and admins. He was eventually banned from the forum entirely, though that didn't stop him from being obnoxious on other sites.
Later, his mom essentially forced him to take a hiatus from the internet after seeing the crap he pulled, and I haven't seen him since. I actually miss him--he was annoying, but a lot of his idiocy was humorous, and all things considered he was mostly harmless.
You can find some of his stuff through a quick Google search, so I won't bother linking or quoting any of it.

This is another HRWF guy, and honestly I'm a bit hesitant to count him, since a lot of the stuff about him is just kinda sad--and since he actually seems to have shaped up quite a bit and become a pretty productive and relatively normal person. That said, there are some things about him that were pretty humorous.
For starters, Magna referred to himself as "antisexual". He didn't mean "asexual", either--he meant that he was against the existence of sex, that no one should have it and that we should reproduce solely via in-vitro fertilization and the like. He also wanted to get his penis removed--not as part of gender reassignment surgery (he identified firmly as male), but because he didn't want genitals, period. Sadly, all that likely stems from the fact that he has admitted to having been sexually abused as a child, so it's not as funny as it could be.
The big issue with this guy, though, was that he viewed himself as some sort of supergenius. This wasn't entirely unfounded--he really was quite intelligent--but he made such a big deal about it that it became really annoying. He used a lot of fancy words, which I think was his way of saying "HEY LOOK AT HOW SMART I AM!", but he almost always misused them. For instance, he referred to a girl he had a (romantic) crush on as "his limerence", despite limerence being a very specific form of attraction--obsessive attraction that demands reciprocation and leads one to idealize the object of their affections (see also: Nick)--that was completely unrelated to his (rather innocuous) crush on his classmate. Even after I explained this to him, he kept using that word to refer to his crush on her, so I'm guessing he just used it because ~*big fancy words*~ or whatever.
He was also a super-militant atheist who fanboyed over Richard Dawkins and would always talk about how people who believed in God were hilariously stupid or whatever, often to their faces.
All that being said, he was a decent enough guy, and he seems to have toned down his more annoying attributes quite a lot. I actually looked him up on Facebook last night out of curiosity, and it turns out he's finding some success as a composer, which is actually pretty cool.

As far as I know, no. However, I haven't spoken to him in ages, and when we were still in contact he was underage (he's about a year my senior)...and of course, if I contacted him out of the blue and asked "YO DID YOU EVER GET YOUR DICK CHOPPED OFF??" that would be really weird.
But he does seem to have stabilized a lot since back then, so I'm guessing not.

Sorry, I had to ask. Glad he grew out of it and found himself, apparently. Love a lolcow story with a happy ending.

I've waffled a bit on posting this one, but one of my former friends who I suppose now goes as Noquisi Khepera Ra-Atum. I knew him in middle school (small private school) as Quincy and we were friends. In late 2003 he kinda turned on me along with another former friend (who both were a year older). By spring his stepmom and dad worked out a curriculum with school for him to study outside of class and progress to high school. Spring break rolled around and we ran into each other at the airport. He was excited to go home and see his mom in New York City. We apologized to each other and made up, and everything seemed fine after that. We lost touch sometime in high school but from what my friends told me everything seemed normal.
In May 2013 I noticed a bunch of flyers plastered all over my boyfriend's neighborhood. They were like a combination of hip-hop mythos, MLM, and insanity all rolled into one.
There is not one thing he has posted that does not have his phone number on it--so don't call him and scream JULAAAY. You can really tell how the delusions have expanded if you read his various blogs (http://futuremillionairesociety.wordpress.com/ and http://fmsthegods.wordpress.com/201...s-and-strategies-of-fms-to-improve-the-world/ and I want to give kind of a NSFW/Not Mindsafe since the old fmsthegods had some pretty horrifying pictures of blown-apart children and such) and it's kind of sad to see what happened.
My boyfriend's sister was in the same class as him and said he was a high school coke dealer and got diagnosed with bipolar disorder. He stopped taking his meds and looks like he either got thrown out or left his dad's house since taking his meds was one of the conditions set out by his dad. There's many different flavors of bipolar and it sounds like he has very long periods of mania with some interesting delusions of grandeur. Managing meds can get tough and I know some of the ridiculous delusions I had while manic were pretty out there, but I can't help but be simultaneously amused, horrified, and depressed.
So I guess more of a sadcow than a lolcow?

Had this one guy in college. Can't remember his name but I'll never forget this story.
I started college and there was this name during attendance that always went unanswered. This guy never showed up. Three weeks into the course and some of us are making jokes about this guy being a mythical creature. There was a staff strike going on at the time and I think that was the cause of it, but I'm not 100% sure. Strike ends and this really fat guy appears in class. This was the guy who never showed up.
And he never showed up again after that day. Missing nearly a month can do that, but here's the kicker. When I asked some of my classmates about him it turns out he left early because he pissed his pants.
Also had this roommate my first year. The typical asshole party guy. Never did his dishes or helped clean before inspections. Hell, I had to end my open door policy when he walked into my room and tried stealing my ID while talking to me. After we lost some roommates*, he had his friend move in with us and proceeded to make him his bitch. For example, bitching about how his friend didn't leave a party after he got kicked out...at 1 am while I had class the next morning. He had a rep for partying on campus with my classmates who lived on residence recognizing him. Got kicked out my last year for failing his one-year program for the third time.
* One guy got kicked out of residence for selling drugs. Was a really nice guy too and I was sad to see him go. Anyway, while the RAs were looking for him, they came to our apartment while I was making soup. They went to check his room and found my other roommate in his room toking with his friends. They confiscated, and I shit you not, 6 bongs while I was eating soup.
Let's just say, my first year of college was a little weird.

There was a guy named Nick who I had attended a math class with during my stint at a community college who is/was a lolcow. He made this evident from the first day of class with random spergy comments throughout the teacher explaining her syllabus to the class. A classmate was nice and said hi to him on the 2nd day off class. After that Nick was convinced this guy was his friend. And would walk up and say hi to him and talk to him every change he got. One Nick walked up to him and said "Do you like my new jacket? It's goose down". Earning him the new nickname Goosedown. He would routinely sit with me, the classmate and several other friends in time in between classes. One day during class we were getting our tests back. Nick had received a D and was VERY EMOTIONAL ABOUT IT. He started to scream "A D! A FREAKING D! I WORKED FOR 2 HOURS ONLY TO GET A D!" He goes on to say "I'll lie, I'll cheat, I'll steal, WHATEVER IT TAKES TO GET OUT OF THIS HELLHOLE!!". Our professor made him leave the class, he returned 10 minutes later still very upset and while we were going over the test. He cussed every time he got a problem wrong. Another day we were preparing packets of homework to turn in. This professor had us turn on homework every 2 weeks instead of daily. Our professor said to either staple the homework or put it in a folder. Nick comments "I can't use my folder, I use it to keep all my notes and other stuff in it." To this the professor responds "Well use a stapler then." Nick becomes enraged at this remark and screams at the top of his lungs "I DON'T HAVE A STAPLER!!" Nick only manages to calm down after another student lets him use her stapler. One day Nick had decided to sit in front of me. And I had coughed. This greatly offended him. He screams at me "Hey could you not cough on me!!!" And I respond with "My bad dude." He becomes enraged and starts scream "GREAT! JUST GREAT! NOW I HAVE TO GO HOME AND TAKE A SHOWER!".
One day Nick had decided to sit with me and some friends in between classes. He had done this several times always with laughable results. Often going on pointless rants, and random spergy fits. One day he went on a rant about how mean and horrible is dad is. And talked about all the awful stuff his dad makes him do. The "awful" things his dad made him do was to pick up after himself, and mow the lawn. He then complained about how his dad drags him to such boring events such as baseball games, and car shows. When several of us had pointed out that's normal dad stuff. He once again went into a rage over it. He also had a massive dislike of smoking, and people would offer him a smoke just to see how worked up he got over smoking. In his mind smoking was the absolute worst thing a person can do in the world. And because he had never smoked he thought of himself as being healthy and in good shape. Nevermind the fact that he had a beer gut, and twig arms. Another when we were all sitting around between classes Nick came up and sat down. We had been talking about Family Guy. Now Nick couldn't stand how Meg was mistreated on Family Guy and went into a massive tard rage over the mistreatment of Meg on Family Guy. Someone had pointed out to him it's done to be funny. He starts screaming how it isn't funny and awful. He then raises his hand up places right in the guy who pointed out making fun of Meg is supposed to be funny's face and motions as if he's gonna hit the guy. This had been the guy Nick had thought of as his friend the entire time. This guy states while Nick is motion as if he's going to hit him "Alright I've put up with you all semester, but this is enough! Go away." Nick runs away crying about how mean we all are to him. The next day in class I ask him why he almost hit another student. He starts talking normally at first stating that it was a Japanese interjection. I point out to him that we didn't know that to us it looked like he wanted to hit someone. He then gets worked up once again and screams "Maybe that's why no one here understands me! No one ever understands me!!". This was on the last day of class. The next semester comes and this student is nowhere to be found.
