Um……….

Posted on 25. Aug, 2008 by loswhit in Random Acts of Webness

So when you are sitting alone in your office and this pops up on your iChat screen…
Picture 1-5

…you either laugh or cry.
I laughed and then looked outside my office door for any psychos with laptops and grenades.
Wow.
I know people have a problem with yours truly, but this would be what I deem a MEGA-HATER.
The tank line though. That was a good one.

    Glad you laughed…I would have cried for sure.

    How cool is it to get such specific hatemail?

  4. alejandro 25 August 2008 at 12:27 pm #

  5. Nick 25 August 2008 at 12:27 pm #

    Ha!
    You should raise him an A-10 Tank Bomber :)

    Goodness and i thought giving you a cheeky cyber ass pinch was risky business!!

  7. Rachel 25 August 2008 at 12:28 pm #

    Looks like somebody’s got a really bad case of the Mondays.

    “um um um” ha ha!

  8. Alastair 25 August 2008 at 12:29 pm #

    Just watch out for tanks when you’re out and about. That’ll be the big giveaway!

  11. Dlake 25 August 2008 at 12:32 pm #

    You got DISSED in Espanol!

    What ever happened to “Yo mamma wears combat boots!”

  12. Jayma 25 August 2008 at 12:33 pm #

    You must be doing something right!

  13. Crystal Renaud 25 August 2008 at 12:35 pm #

    ok ok… it was me.

    “I’d laugh unless it was my mom.” -alejandro

    LOL!! If that came from your mom, you might have some major family issues to address. :D

    yeah, I’ve been getting random AIM chats from trout people. I write back and they’re like, you wrote to me… i’m like… uh, no. Have a great day though.

    awkward.

  16. anne jackson 25 August 2008 at 12:38 pm #

    what’s terrible is the use of comic sans…

  17. annie 25 August 2008 at 12:39 pm #

    remembering a greatline from “Hook” (paraphrased i’m sure) “somebody needs a mamma real bad”

  18. Mishababy 25 August 2008 at 12:44 pm #

    this couldn’t be from the person that thought tanks were running through Georgia (state not country)????

    mad you posted his question and got flamed for it????

    just a thought….

  19. Amy Storms 25 August 2008 at 12:48 pm #

    Anne Jackson – lol. Comic sans.

    Just be careful. Chats like this is how those guys end up on To Catch A Predator.

  20. Jason 25 August 2008 at 12:49 pm #

    That’s actually Portuguese not Spanish. Crazy! Brazilians are a lively bunch. Maybe some left over resentment from the Olympics. Seems like have the most the gold medal finals in Volleyball where US vs. Brasil.

  21. kelly m 25 August 2008 at 12:49 pm #

    every now and then i get random IMs from some screen name that is ______salmon. like derangedsalmon or angrysalmon or some other random kind of…salmon.

    they’re not that angry at me, though.

  22. gillie 25 August 2008 at 12:50 pm #

    I’m totally with Anne. If you’re trying to be tough, Comic Sans is not the way to go.

  23. Marcelo 25 August 2008 at 12:51 pm #

    That 2nd to last was actually Portuguese… this is crazy. It looks like spam… do you know these people?

  24. Malachi 25 August 2008 at 12:51 pm #

    I Googled DefiledTrout and found this: http://youryummybuddy.livejournal.com/11511.html?thread=25847#t25847

  25. Michael O. 25 August 2008 at 12:54 pm #

    I received a chat confirmation from this same guy on Gchat asking if I was Uzbekistani. I checked him out externally and realized that it was a spam account so I denied. I don’t think that the hating was personal but I could be wrong, spam accounts might really have it in for you Los.

  26. Joe Louthan 25 August 2008 at 12:58 pm #

    That is hatin’ on a whole new level. I can’t even hang like that.

  27. Marcelo 25 August 2008 at 12:59 pm #

    Hey Jason, we don’t care much for volleyball… to loose the men soccer semifinal to Argentina (our eternal soccer rival) was the REAL tragedy. The Portuguese line (which is translated to English right after it) ‘sounds’ like spam… unless Los is calling some Trannies. Hehehe.

    Anyway, if it comes down to a rumble and you need some Brazilian support, count me in! :0)

  28. boomama 25 August 2008 at 12:59 pm #

    I love Anne’s comment a million times.

  29. Los 25 August 2008 at 1:00 pm #

    OK. I googled “Don’t call transmissions trannies. Please, please don’t.” and got this…

  30. Dlake 25 August 2008 at 1:09 pm #

    Jason . . . thanks for the linguistic lesson. My bad!

    Por-two-guess! Nice…

  31. JTCrespo 25 August 2008 at 1:09 pm #

    As we spoke about, I too received a message from DefiledTrout’s cousin StressedTrout, but mine wasn’t anywhere near as hateful.

    My question is: Why trout? They’re so peaceful…

  32. Dave © 25 August 2008 at 1:17 pm #

    What? I thought a mac was un-spammable! I want a refund!!! Oh wait…I don’t have a mac.

  33. Andrew 25 August 2008 at 1:28 pm #

    I too have been getting the trout messages … so weird…

  34. evan courtney 25 August 2008 at 1:32 pm #

    Don’t player hate.

  35. Kyle 25 August 2008 at 1:49 pm #

    You always seem to have to out due everyone.
    It’s getting a little old…lol.
    I would agree though, you definitely win the “Hate’n On” competition.
    That was the most ridiculous, yet somehow funny, thing I’ve ever seen.

    Nicely done on making someone desire to murder you. Major props Los’.

    There was some Brazilian Portuguese there… but I promise it wasn’t me :)

  37. Michelle G 25 August 2008 at 2:56 pm #

    LOLOL at the Comic Sans comments….I’m very pleased to know that I am not alone in hating that piece of design blasphemy

  38. Aaron 25 August 2008 at 3:15 pm #

    Friends don’t let friends use AIM.

  39. Liege Davis 25 August 2008 at 3:36 pm #

    Jason is correct it’s Portuguese and not Spanish, but it’s some bad Portuguese. I’m from Brazil and almost didn’t understand what that person meant with that sentence!

    I’ve been getting some (adj)trout messages lately too. Here’s what I’ve found out:

  41. Scott Fillmer 26 August 2008 at 3:31 am #

    that is hilarious (sorry)… they were real intelligent in their arguments but getting hate chats, wow, you have moved it up a notch now :)

  42. Pat Callahan 26 August 2008 at 11:10 am #

    So… just for clarification…

    When you called me a trannie, were you talking about my transmission or the fact that I was in a dress and stilletos?

    Just wondering…

  43. Michael Harrison 27 August 2008 at 5:05 am #

    just some spiritual juice, LOS
