I have a long, long history of mocking idiots on the internet and being told what a horrible person I am for doing so. Way back in their heydays, I loved Godawful Fan Fiction, Portal of Evil, and Fandom Wank, all forums that were openly reviled by the cows under discussion, any friends/allies they had, and an awful lot of people who loudly bewailed the meanness of people on the internet (most of whom turned out to be covert/passive-aggressive assholes themselves).
So when I first heard about the Farms (probably on Reddit, but it could have been 8chan or lolcow.farm), I checked it out, saw that it was good, and signed up. I was unaware of its wider reputation, but after somebody on Reddit chimped out on me after I mentioned factual information relevant to the discussion that I'd seen here on the Farms--and chimped out for no other reason than I'd mentioned Kiwi Farms--I knew I was in the right place. I had come home.
