Lolcows always go apeshit after finding out they're on ED or have a thread here. They chimp out at the big meanie twolls but another element comes into play too if their ED page or their thread has a lot of dirt from their shenanigans.

They see themselves described in a very negative way. They get scared that people will see the ED page or KF thread and see them like the article editors or thread starters. They get scared their followers will dump them when their ugly secrets come back to haunt them, especially when the truth proves they are liars or fakes.

None of them realize that coming clean and saying "guys, I fucked up" and telling the truth with an apology will get them some measure of respect* though a lot of people will unfollow or unsubscribe. They can't stand losing face or conceding to anything because admitting they are wrong means admitting they are fallible and we all know lolcows prize themselves on being too perfect for this world amirite?


*Unless they committed a criminal act or did something that is so morally reprehensible that they need to get locked up in prison or a nuthouse. Those people deserve zero respect or sympathy.


TL;DR Lolcows chimp out if you get dirt on them because they're too egotistical to admit they're fallible.

What does everyone else think? Ideas? Speculations?
 
Honestly, as a lolcow, I personally completely understand how and why I ended up with a thread. What I did was retarded and I wish I had gotten on medication for impulsivity & ADHD earlier. I personally flipped my shit because I’m extremely paranoid which conflicted with my previous constant impulsive lonely posting on social media, I suppose I didn’t like the fact that there was information about me out there & for once it wasn’t in my own hands, selfish, I know. I was on the edge of wiping my online presence (out of sheer lack of patience for social media & its audience, as well as me being paranoid about my digital footprint) before my thread was made & then I was mostly angry at myself for not doing it in time. And also being a retard. If any lolcow tells you that they’re having a breakdown over their thread alone, they’re lying. Most of us have a breakdown because we feel stupid, maybe some don’t want to admit it, but most cow breakdowns are partly down to the fact they know they fucked up. You can either be a lil bitch and act like you’re an entirely innocent victim, or take it on the chin and realise that as much as your thread poster is probably a cunt, you fucked up too.
