I know. He was on here once before as the supposed bf of Wentworth Miller.

The board also seems to have lost its good humour this morning. Come on, people, jolly up. Gossip is supposed to be fun.

Oh,fiddle-dee-dee. We see your man & raise you 4 -each one far better! I'll bet yours gets set upon by footpads before the day is out!

Waiting. Waiting. 3-2-1...

"You describe yourself as highbrow, whilst I barely reach 5'3" if my hair's just been washed, so here's the really important question: how will this affect the size of the rock you buy me? *bats eyelashes* "


Please tell me you're joking Penname. Or do you really think that's what "highbrow" means?

AN A-lister star of Hollywood will be outed next week, I can reveal.

This was posted on March 30th, about 3 weeks ago and no one knows yet? I would say who posted this blind has their head up their butts . But just to play along, I would have to say it probably is Kevin Spacey.

Sola, assuming that you are a journalist researching gossip boards on the internet (or whatever it is that you are researching) --which i find quite feasible actually -- when we will be able to read your article? What publication do you write for? I'm not being facetious, i really am interested.

Oh how you’d like to get you five minutes of fame, wouldn’t you? Sorry, poppet, I don’t think my work requires quoting you. You’re just an infinitesimal part of my stuff.

As for Internet gossip being a form of sadism, I challenge anybody to provide any kind of concrete, measurable and quantifiable proof that ANY celeb, from A to Z list has been harmed emotionally, financially, or otherwise, or in any tangible manner whatsoever.

GossipRocks is a bed of roses compared to some crappy sites whose members are openly putting bets on Britney Spears’s upcoming suicide. But I’m afraid you didn’t read me correctly. I have no doubt our targets are out of reach, actually. My point is that the sadistic tendency is inside us, that it finds an outlet on the celebrity gossip boards, and this is an interesting phenomenon.

In the end, if you're trying to cover up your Furry costume in the shiny veneer of some internet vigilante, swooping in to right the wrongs of the electronic worlds by screeching shrilly at the denizens therein, good luck with that. It's a bit transparent, but whatever makes you happy while you dream of Kevin Spacey's long golden locks shining in the sun as he pulls you close, your bosom heaving.

Oh heavenly vision!
Seriously, pal… From your stubborn insistence I understand that it would be emotionally more gratifying to you if I actually were that lovesick fangirl, but
hey, wait a minute, KS is ridiculously half bald, eye-bagged, double-chinned, and a little too chubby. May I have Jeff Goldblum instead?

Ooooh, but wait a minute again. Let’s suppose for one second I am that lovesick fangirl, and my personal fantasy is K.S. having a steamy schtupping session with a pneumatic nurse on a hospital bed. Would it be less worthy than your cute dream of him “getting doublefisted while wearing a nun costume that was shat on earlier”? How dare you refuse to others an “innocent” pleasure you’re indulging yourself in so generously? After all, to anyone with a little sense, you just might be another KS fantard here, because – correct me if I am wrong – it really sounds like the idea he might not be 100% gay (which is true, whether you like it or not) is deeply disturbing to you.
I could understand that and even sympathise, but the way you put it… Although I enjoy your satirical verve, I’ll be blunt: just because someone is gay and a member of a (less and less) repressed community doesn’t allow them to impose their aggressive little dictatorship on a democratic multisexual board, behind the mask of anonymity.

As to the person who asks me where my psycho-sociological study on the Anglo-Saxon gossip boards will be published, I’m rather thinking of a round table about the “cyberspace planets” I’m invited to next month, at a conference.

[A*O]

I would issue a health warning and caution against any kind of in-depth psycho-sociological study on gossip boards. You will quickly pick up crazy germs and there's no cure apparently.

Fame? Who gives a rats ass about fame. I want MONEY.

I guess you missed the part where we did that, granted there were about 10 threads, all about 100 pages long..

But I’m afraid you didn’t read me correctly. I have no doubt our targets are out of reach, actually. My point is that the sadistic tendency is inside us, that it finds an outlet on the celebrity gossip boards, and this is an interesting phenomenon.

Why do you equate laughing at the idiocy of "celebrities" with sadism? If you do something stupid, someone will laugh at your ass. When you do something stupid and are followed around by media hounds dedicated to broadcasting your stupidity, MORE people will laugh. If you're some lonley freak in a shack that does something stupid, chances are the only person laughing at it was you.. and maybe your other personalities.

No you may not, fantards only get one obsession per board thread. Them's the rules.

Ooooh, but wait a minute again. Let’s suppose for one second I am that lovesick fangirl, and my personal fantasy is K.S. having a steamy schtupping session with a pneumatic nurse on a hospital bed. Would it be less worthy than your cute dream of him “getting doublefisted while wearing a nun costume that was shat on earlier”?

No, not at all. It would just be ridiculous, and doubly so for running around flailing your displeasure at people speculating that he might just enjoy such a thing.

How dare you refuse to others an “innocent” pleasure you’re indulging yourself in so generously?

Yes, let's take my offhanded remark made purely for the sake of comedy and highlighting how silly such obsessions are, and turn it into a cheap psyche 101'ism whereby you blow it up into the object of my every day fantasy. Bravo. Didn't see that one coming a mile away. I do hope your publication is a tad more clever.

After all, to anyone with a little sense, you just might be another KS fantard here, because – correct me if I am wrong – it really sounds like the idea he might not be 100% gay (which is true, whether you like it or not) is deeply disturbing to you.

Last I checked, I haven't written up any obsessive manifestos on the subject, or joined a board to berate people for humorously poking fun at the guy. That would, so far, be your domain... you and your adorable and vociferous defense of Kevin Spacey's alleged heterosexuality *pats head*

I could understand that and even sympathise, but the way you put it… Although I enjoy your satirical verve, I’ll be blunt: just because someone is gay and a member of a (less and less) repressed community doesn’t allow them to impose their aggressive little dictatorship on a democratic multisexual board, under the mask of anonymity.

LOL and who is doing that? You're free to scream your little head off about how Kevin Spacey visits Hooters and gets lapdances hourly, and I'm prefectly free to laugh at idea if I so choose, rebutting with my own hilarious imagining on what he gets up to with 5 catholic priests, a donkey and a can of Aquanet.

As to the person who asks me where my psycho-sociological study on the Anglo-Saxon gossip boards will be published, I’m rather thinking of a round table about the “cyberspace planets” I’m invited to next month, at a conference/

Let's hope they serve cheese.

My steamy fantard obsession in this thread is imagining Guy Pearce schtupping Kevy-baby in a seedy LA bath house.

.. don't we have a picture of that

I demand you post it immediately!

[Sola]

Caramba, I'm stunned! Seems that guy is avidly waiting for me to show up and he shoots faster than his shadow. Obviously I touched a big painful nerve here. Do you know what, Grimmlok, I think I'll mercifully let you have the last word (for today) and go hit the hay.
Oh Lord, thank you... Biggest laugh I ever had on a board!

[Grimmlok]

Welcome to the wonderful world of Grimmloks multiquote vivisection replies.. and no dear, no nerve was touched. Not even by Kevin Spacey.

Sleep well, I look forward to tearing into your next manifesto of absurdity in regards to what Kevin Spacey does NOT do on a sunday with 3 shirtless cheerleaders, a 24 case of premium beer and a big screen with NASCAR on it.

I'm the 'person'. Is it a follow-up study on this ?

I found the article quite fascinating, although outdated of course--which is why your research would be interesting. You have, of course, done your research on previous gossip studies, right?

This looks interesting as well...sort of like the experts in the field.
