Rebuttal
I’m so excited right now! These are the types of moments that I absolutely live for. I got my first legitimately offended reader! Total hate mail type situation about my last Ask Josh! I’d be lying to you all if I said I wasn’t at least half hard at all times during our brief email conversation. So here’s what I’ll do. I’ll post the messages we sent each other back and forth and comment on them along the way. I may even give this cunt an actual reason to be offended. Though, I’m pretty sure that last sentence would suffice.

i couldn’t tell if you meant the things you said about gay people or if you were joking and making fun of people with those attitudes. or if you really meant it but will say it is a joke if someone asks you. the comment and question from the guy who wanted to come out to his parents was perfectly clear and understandable. and i found it curious that you felt the need to specify the race of the person who asked you that other question. do you have racial attitudes also?
Yes, I’m a racist homophobe. You caught me. I disguise this racism and homophobic behavior by talking about it on a blog, and masking it with humor. There is absolutely no reason to email the person, whose work you stumble across, because you don’t fucking understand it. “Well, I just wanted to email and tell you that I think you’re completely wrong and that racism is still a big deal…” shut the fuck up. You’re clearly using the internet to come across people that you can argue with to give off the illusion that you’re smart, and better than everyone else, which is weird because the only way you come off is as an ugly girl, who couldn’t get a boyfriend and grew up increasingly bitter, and jealous of everyone else’s happiness.
In fact, the only person who has a reason to be offended is the “gay black” gentleman who sent me the question and who I made fun of. Do you want to know his response to my last Ask Josh? “Haha Hilarious!” That was his response. But no, some random white girl was offended. Funny how that works. That’s exactly what I said in my response, by the way.
It goes on…

i don’t know you , so i thought i would ask. it’s just that the depressing fact is that more people have these attitudes than one would like to think in these quasi-enlightened times. i just heard that a congressman referred to Obama and his wife as “uppity”. and since i don’t know you, it was hard to tell. it wasn’t that i couldn’t tell you were joking, it was that that often disguises racism as it purports to pass it off as a joke. i get very downhearted about these things. primarily prejudices and magical thinking (belief in god), and then the lack of cleverness and art in people. i keep hoping to find people without the former, and some measure of the latter.Josh said:
At first I thought you might be legitimately offended… Turns out you’re just lonely and bored.echo said:
at first i thought you might be a reasonably decent person. turns out you’re just another asshole. i was suspicious of you having these attitudes even though they were cloaked in humor. i almost deleted you, but as i said, i thought i’d ask. perhaps i was misinterpreting. now i see many more flaws that cannot be excused. that was callous and hurtful. not to mention that you don’t seem to get what i’m saying.
Your first solid, and completely legitimate point! I’m an asshole! I’m actually really glad she pointed this out because I’ve worked far too hard for my entire life to get to this level of asshole. So thank you for noticing.
Maybe I don’t get what you’re saying because you’re not really saying anything at all. You’re all over the fucking place in your replies. Then you bring up Obama, and religion for no point at all except to hopefully have one of those topics spark up an anger in me enough to reply and get into some sort of internet debate. I even looked at her groups she’s started on Virb and they were basically argument based. Even when someone agrees with her on a topic she somehow finds a way to argue about it… Yet, I’m the asshole.
In all honesty there have been more replies since the last one, but it’s just more of the same. Apparently I’m stupid, I’m not funny or witty, I’m not awesome, my existence tortures her, and on down the line of “every thing you think you are you really aren’t” type of comebacks.
So what am I going to do about this situation? Well since all she wants to do is argue with everyone I would be a fool to keep playing back at her with my slew of awesomeness and insults. I’ll do what my mother taught me and kill her with kindness. Since she can’t stand my existence it’ll be my job to send her a message every morning that says something like “Hope you’re having a fantastic day my love! xoxoxo”. Or “I just dreamed that we were married last night, I can’t wait till it really happens!” You know, your basic weird, stalker-like harassment, since that’s what any girl I’ve ever talked to says I’m best at.
