resurrection of the author

i think that WCC's characterization of Mordy as "mansplaining" originated in a number of other threads, and as a result of past behavior, she interpreted his behavior in the button thread as following that pattern.

past interactions do color one's perceptions of current interactions, right? that is a pretty common phenomenon?

I don't know that it necessarily completely erodes reading comprehension, though.

all of our posts are independent works of art that should be read w/o consideration of the author's behavior

at least thats how I approach ilx
^that post gets a 5.2

and i hope that all the lols at WCC's misunderstanding of Mordy's death of the author reference aren't of the "omg she is crazy and stupid" variety, and are more of the, "what a disaster for communication!" type, because the former comes across as a bit smug and snobby imo

i put it more in the category of 'seeing what you want to'

probably had something to do with the unique mordy-colored glasses she was wearing ie everything he says is mansplaining/etc

forgets to take those glasses off sometimes

all the lols at WCC's misunderstanding of Mordy's death of the author reference
it was an extreme example of how ~everything~ is about her

fyi the first post on my fb feed today was a link to a mansplaining tumblr
― sarahell, Friday, 19 October 2012 21:18 (eleven years ago) link
did we make it?
― terrell sug (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:19 (eleven years ago) link
no, it was not by an ilxor, though the person who posted it is friends with a couple other ilxors, none of whom were involved in this recent incident or threads about it
― sarahell, Friday, 19 October 2012 21:20 (eleven years ago) link
you see sarah tumblr is a little bit of a social network a little bit a blog, kind of like blogspot crossed w/facebook, do you get it now
― --bob marley (lag∞n), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:20 (eleven years ago) link
wish i could travel back in time 10 years and casually drop the phrase "mansplaining tumblr" into a conversation
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:20 (eleven years ago) link
xp - you are one of the most consistently funny posters, dude.

I would add iPad to that sentence too.
― she started dancing to that (Finefinemusic), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:27 (eleven years ago) link
iPad still makes me think of a personalized menstrual product tbh
― sarahell, Friday, 19 October 2012 21:30 (eleven years ago) link
well you see sarah, an iPad is not really personalized
― 乒乓, Friday, 19 October 2012 21:32 (eleven years ago) link
you can get your menstrual product engraved fyi
― mookieproof, Friday, 19 October 2012 21:33 (eleven years ago) link
menstrual tablet ugh
― set the controls for the heart of the sun (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:37 (eleven years ago) link
ilxors should be tempbanned for lots of things. temp bans aren't used enough.
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:44 (eleven years ago) link
it's three days away from ilx, it's not a big deal
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:45 (eleven years ago) link
to summarize, mods should be tempbanning people on a daily basis
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:46 (eleven years ago) link
random ilx holiday for u! you could be a winner

Yeah, was gonna say that, assuming we weren't talking about strapping a notebook to your vag, this is already a thing.
― Burgled Hams (Old Lunch), Friday, 19 October 2012 21:55 (eleven years ago) link
actually we are talking about strapping a notebook to your vag

seriously though,
this is ILX -
which do you think's happening?
― Andrew Farrell, Friday, 19 October 2012 22:56 (eleven years ago) link
remember back in 2003, when you were remembering how much better ilx used to be?
― racewar driver (k3vin k.), Friday, 19 October 2012 22:57 (eleven years ago) link
i think WCC threw out that that was a threat knowing full well what "death of the author" means and what Mordy meant by it
