what's the weirdest thing you've been accused of on DU?

[datasuspect]

i was once told i was a non-native english speaker/writer.

[DarkTirade]

1. Neo-nazi and child molester.

Not in the same post though.

[Richardo]

2. "possible long-term Freeper troll"

Because I held forth the opinion that some liberal icon (Jesse Jackson? Michael Moore? I forget) was not my cup of tea.

[TZ]

3. Being a janitor in a lab, instead of working in the lab

Because I actually had scientific knowledge that didn't come from Rolling Stone magazine.:eyes:

[barb162]

61. I'm surprised

you weren't then called a freeper janitor. :)

[La Lioness Priyanka]

4. being a brahmin from new delhi who shuns blacks/poc in this country

poisoning thom

threatening the partners of people i wanting to have sex with

stalking

using rockit as my sock puppet

just because you are beautiful doesnt mean i should like you

(after compiling this list, one wonders why i am here)

[datasuspect]

5. you can't make shit like that up

personally, i'm glad you're still here.

[siligut]

10. Me too, she is lovely.

If you aren’t getting opposition you aren’t being effective. At least on the damn internet.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

16. ..

:hug:

[Bertha Venation]

21. Damn, Pri

:hug:

[La Lioness Priyanka]

26. its ok. most of this has been retracted etc.

[PeaceNikki]

25. Lovely and welcoming place, huh?

And... :hug:

[La Lioness Priyanka]

39. most of this is bygones but it was less than fun when it happened

[Deep13]

34. I accuse you of being awesome.

:pals:

[La Lioness Priyanka]

40. ...

:pals:

[NewJeffCT]

51. I still can't believe you poisoned a nice guy like Thom!

you're just so vicious and mean. I heard you also shot some guy in Vegas, just to watch him die.

:P

j/k... sorry you had to put up with all that BS

[La Lioness Priyanka]

59. meh. its ok. sometimes even nice people say mean things because they believe you are evil

it happens

[Rhythm]

122. Get your facts straight, Jeff... it was Reno.

:hide:














:hug: to Pri for rising above the shitstorms and being awesome.

:hug: to Jeff for not kicking me in the butt...

[PeaceNikki]

6. I was called "Karl Rove's butt whore"

FTR, I am not.

[datasuspect]

7. jesucristo!

sometimes, i'm just like all duuuharrrrhhhhnnnnn

[PeaceNikki]

13. huh...uh

Shut up, Beavis.

[datasuspect]

15. uh huh huh uh

we're mexicans

[La Lioness Priyanka]

8. ...

:rofl:

you win

[PeaceNikki]

11. Best part was why I was called that.

Because I defended my fine Senator Russ Feingold from a poster who claimed:

"BushCo has video of Fiengold with teenaged hookers.

Period. No other explanation possible.

Except maybe teenage MALE hookers

Or middle aged male hookers.

Or hookers, or anthrax or SOMETHING. Russ's explanation for not impeaching is just plain STUPID."

By someone who A) clearly doesn't understand that the Senate does not impeach and B) couldn't even spell his name right.

[backtoblue]

94. that's just wrong

:spray:

[mainegreen]

9. Anti-evolution.

anyone who knows me knows how absurd that really is.

[realisticphish]

12. "Third rate fascist propagandist"

that was funny :D

[HEyHEY]

42. Really? Cause I DID mean it!

I kid, wasn't me... sounds like one of mine though.

[siligut]

14. I was called a retread!

Oh wait, that was from you datasuspect!

[datasuspect]

17. i don't use words that big

[siligut]

19. Check your PM. nt

[AirmensMom]

18. Flat earther,

pseudo-scientist, asshat ... or maybe it was asswipe. Can't remember. They didn't have the guts to call me any of those things to my face. :shrug:

Oh yeah, and once someone said that harleydad and I were "pretending" not to know each other. I like that one the best. :rofl:

[Bertha Venation]

20. intentionally contributing to the murder of songbirds

I'm not insensitive to the argument; I just disagree.

[TZ]

24. Gee I wonder who did that...

:eyes: btw Bertha...If anyone says that to you again...Tell them its better than being in the Pro-Plague camp since ferals kill disease bearing rodents...

[LynneSin]

29. There use to be a bounty on my cat Evita because she killed 2 songbirds

:cry:

[TZ]

31. a bounty?

You know, I love birds, but advocating animal abuse in the name of "helping" birds is just plain sick.

[LynneSin]

43. Matcom started it

He even made a poster

[mainegreen]

30. That was a surprisingly epic thread.

[Bertha Venation]

32. there have been many

It had just been a long time since our songbird advocate had been around.

[woo me with science]

22. White male abuser.

My husband was pretty amused. :)

[MrCoffee]

23. Genocidaire

I'm not kidding.

[TZ]

28. Geezus.

I got called a child-poisoner once and thought that was bad...

[datasuspect]

33. what a pop shot

[LynneSin]

27. A Cowboy's fan

might as well call me Karl Rove & Rush Limbaugh's love slave

[Deep13]

35. werewolf raper

[ThomCat]

100. I don't even want to know how or why you would go about that.

:wow:

[Deep13]

102. I'm only kidding.

Patton Oswald used the term in one of his stand-up routines and I remembered it.

[ccharles000]

36. That I was hurting the GLBT community(btw I am gay)

[Bertha Venation]

88. Why would someone say that to you?

How cruel. :grr:

[jonnyblitz]

37. a few years back several people here claimed wrongly I had a

few sock puppets ( one nasty post then tombstoned sockpuppets) here or alias' on other sights that i used to trash certain DUers I had a falling out with at the time. I supposedly even created a right wing persona (pro-life,etc.) on a certain "conservative" site to trash them, several even went on that sight, called me by my actual last name proclaiming they knew it was me though it wasn't (:crazy:)I really don't CARE that much to go through all that trouble to create new sock accounts and I am NOT too shy to trash people using my actual screen name but that is water under the bridge and i am now pretty much on friendly terms with the people i had a falling out with.

[ThomCat]

101. Shit got thrown around pretty harshly for a while.

:(

I'm very glad it's over and long past. It wasn't fun seeing the mean side of people who had been friends.

[Symarip]

38. I've been called a Nazi

I alerted GD P to two facts.

1. Joe The Plumber was not a skinhead.

2. Skinheads typically have no ties to racism or racialism.

And thus, I was a Nazi apologist. Funny how things work that way.

[LynneSin]

44. That's because you're Joe the Plumber

:hide:

[Symarip]

49. Please

I'm not nearly that good looking.

[HEyHEY]

41. I was accused of being a pedo and possible child murderer.....

Because I thought that studying sex offenders behaviour to find a way to cure it instead of mutilating them was a better way to about reducing incidents of child sex abuse. Go figure!

[LeftyFingerPop]

45. An asshole.

[TZ]

46. The OP says "weirdest"

not most accurate...:hide: ;)

[LeftyFingerPop]

48. *sigh*

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

47. I once had a thread deleted because I used the word "pussy".

And yes, the context was "pussy CAT". This incident led me to believe that more than a few mods (none present here, I'll wager) can be a wee bit... shall we say "retentive" from time to time.

It always reminded me of the time Dr. Johnny Fever was fired for saying the word BOOGER on the air... :rofl:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

50. I could tell you, but then

I would have to kill you ;)

[PassingFair]

52. Being a liar.

Basically was called a liar by
several posters, because I posted
about a local incident that involved
my relatives, and because my "story"
was unverifiable and was "third party"
(it involved my BROTHER), that I
was just talking trash and the incident
could not possibly have happened the
way I outlined it.

I have never been accused of lying
IRL, and the "you can't prove it"
response to my real-life situation caused
me to use ignore for the first time.

[NewJeffCT]

53. I was accused of being a Freeper in the first thread I started

way back in October of 2003...

I had asked for info on defending Bill Clinton from various Freeper charges, and somebody seemed to have skipped over the part where I said, "This is what he sent me,"

[LynneSin]

54. But I thought you are a freeper

:hide:

[NewJeffCT]

55. takes one to know one, Hitler!

:P

[LynneSin]

57. nice reply fat kitler

[Arkansas Granny]

56. I was told that my ass was racist. It wasn't made clear at the time if that

accusation applied to all my body parts or just my ass.

[barb162]

58. Hahaha

The name-calling that goes on at this place. :eyes:
It seems every time a disagreement occurs, a person is a troll, a freeper, a racist, etc.

[tammywammy]

60. racist

:eyes:

[Rabrrrrrr]

62. Just this week I've been accused of being a "sweetie" and a "dear"

:grr:

:nuke:

[datasuspect]

64. bless your heart

[Bertha Venation]

89. LOL

:rofl:

[TK421]

116. OMFG!!!!!!@#! Rabrrrrrr, I am so sorry you had to endure that!

It must have given you many a restless night, but you do have friends ( fiends...close to friends, without the R ) to comfort you with that most horrific accusation....but just remember...keep your fiends close, and your friends closer!

[Dora]

63. homophobia

it wasn't pretty

[La Lioness Priyanka]

77. why

[rug]

65. I was accused of postmodern irony.

:shrug:

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

66. You mean in the last week?

Misogynistic pedophile porn rape troll.

[Odin2005]

104. You remember wrong, I called you a date rape apologist.

And no, I'm not taking that back...

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

137. Oh, I wasn't even talking about you.

I'd forgotten about you. You and your bullshit don't even register on my radar.

[DarkTirade]

67. Oh man, I forgot the funniest one... I got accused of being a jock or cheerleader in high school.

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

[Dr Fate]

71. Me too- I forgot about that one.

For a while, it was a talking point that Obama supporters were either "jocks" or elitist egg-heads, depending on the time of day.

[DarkTirade]

72. Oh no, this was here in the lounge. Completely unrelated to anything.

[Dr Fate]

73. Even still- I was accused of the same- and it was hilarious to me...

...Considering that I was a comic book & record collector geek, and couldnt figure out how to talk to girls until I was 19 or 20...

[DarkTirade]

74. Yeah, I just came upstairs from the basement...

... where I was putting another layer of rubber on the grips of the two lightsabers I'm building right now. :P

[TZ]

75. You?

The nerdiest nerd nerdboy? :rofl: :)

[DarkTirade]

76. Yeah, I know.

It was just so out of the blue, too. One of those people who is too incompetent to actually pick a real fight with someone, but feels the need to try and be a bully on the internet. So they end up picking a fight with key words they see in the post rather than the post itself. By the end I wasn't sure whether to say "WTF?!?!" or just fall out of my chair laughing. :P

[mike_c]

68. Carlos Jiacinto once called me "dispicable..."

...but that's kind of a badge of honor, actually. :rofl:

[Dr Fate]

70. Carlos Jiacinto? LOL! I have not heard that name in years.

I always got along with him, somehow.

[DevonRex]

131. I knew him on another board and came here because of him. Then I realized

he was, um, what's the word I'm looking for...

[Dr Fate]

69. "Far Left" and "too conservative". n/t

n/t

[1gobluedem]

78. Being a sock puppet for three different people simultaneously

I think that takes a rare talent.

Edited for spelling.

[Call Me Wesley]

79. "Manchurian moderator."

I thought it was rather funny, though. ;)

[Dr Fate]

81. LOL! That is funny- you have to give them that! n/t

n/t

[Sequoia]

84. That's certainly an interesting term.

And you are....?

Oh, me? Well, I'm just a manchurian moderator, mamn.

Umm....I see. And where did you get your degree?

North Korea University, where else?

[Iggo]

80. I'm sure there were some good ones...

...during the primaries, and especially during the frequent dust-ups leading up to and immediately after the Prop 8 fiasco.

Problem is, by the time I saw there were replies, the posts had already been deleted. This happened often enough that I started to feel bullet-proof. I was all like "What? You don't agree with me? Try and complain, baby. Poof! You're gone!"

:rofl:

[Broken_Hero]

82. A

Lex Luthor apologist....:eyes:

As if...

[Sequoia]

83. Crime lover who hates all cops.

[LibertyLover]

85. Oh the usual -

Freeper and troll. It was during the election. I had posted something in GD-Presidential and someone took exception because they didn't read the punctuation correctly. Think "Eats Shoots and Leaves" type of thing. She accused me of being a freeper, troll, low count poster and of hiding my information in the members database. Anyway, I was furious and hurt. I was trying to come up with a pithy response, you know, something other than 'F&ck you and the horse you rode in on' when I took another look at the message chain. Several DUers had responded, telling the person that she was crazy - I had been on DU since 2001, had a star, they could see my information on the database and what the hell was she thinking. If I remember correctly, I rarely saw her post there after that. Of course, after that debacle, I rarely went into the hell that was GD-Presidential prior to the election again.

[datasuspect]

91. i don't think i ever posted in there.

and maybe only looked into a few times.

i'm left wing extremist, i don't want to chime in with too many opinions.

[ThomCat]

86. I was accused of hating men.

:wow:

[TZ]

92. !

Ummm okay...I think you might be the winner for the weirdeist in this thread...:rofl:

[ThomCat]

96. I'm a feminist, and I used to post very actively.

So even though my name is Thom it's assumed that I'm a man-hating lesbian, don't you know. :P

I've also been 'accused' of being straight.

Somehow, my gayness doesn't come across very well. I must not be flirting with enough guys obviously enough. :)

[foxfeet]

107. Well, hell, you can flirt with me.

:evilgrin:

[ThomCat]

109. Any man who quotes Lily Tomlin is worth flirting with.

:*

:hi:
I just hope DarkTirade isn't watching. :yoiks: I hear he gets really jealous.

[DarkTirade]

117. ...

:grr:

:P

[ThomCat]

118. Hi Gorgeous!

Woo Hoo! I get to flirt with two cuties in one thread. How cool is that? :P

:hug:

[Redstone]

87. Lots of things that anyone who actally knows me would NOT believe.

These things happen. I don't let them bother me.

Redstone

[datasuspect]

90. wow, haven't seen you in a long time

how's things?

[Redstone]

95. I've been really fucking sick, but things are starting to get sorted out, and

once the primary cause of the problems (there are three suspects) gets pinned down, treatment (no doubt gruesome) will follow.

But I've had five god days in a row now, so here's hoping for one of those miraculous remissions.

Thanks for asking.

Redstone

[backtoblue]

93. intellectual masturbation

[nomorenomore08]

99. Which is at least fun, ain't it?

nt

[nomorenomore08]

97. I was compared to Hemingway because I said I thought 12-step programs were bullshit.

I kind of regret the initial comment now, being needlessly mean and inflammatory as it was, but in a weird way the "Hemingway" response was kind of flattering. I mean, I sure *wish* I was as good a writer as ol' Ernest. :P

[backtoblue]

103. Now, don't get all egotistical now ... lol

Someone responded to one of my posts that they
"didn't want to be snarky, but my theory had already been researched and had credibility."
I found that as a compliment B-)

[graywarrior]

98. Being a duck abuser

Imagine that.

[Sky Masterson]

105. Flirting

:eyes: Like please. :hide:

[Odin2005]

106. I was called a right-wing propagandist because I brought up Karl Popper's critique of Marxism.

:banghead:

[old mark]

108. Vile,fascist Nazi neocon scum.

I am a lifelong Dem and a lifelong gun owner. It upsets some people.
Fuck'em, says I.

mark

[kimmerspixelated]

110. Certain lurkers behind my back like to refer to me as a WOO!

But it doesn't matter because I have them on ignore-so it doesn't matter what they say anymore. I have a SHIELD!!!

[TZ]

113. Well good for you!

I'm sure everybody in the Skeptics group REALLY misses those insightful posts of yours there..:rofl:
You just love to announce your ignore list don't you..:rofl:

I'll be honest..I never called you that behind your back...I did it directly when you "visited" us in the Skeptics group..

[Mugu]

111. Some weiner argued that while the author of an article that I posted

was a well known progressive and that the publication sited was a progressive publication, I was a Freeper troll for posting it.

[Mike 03]

112. Sadly (amazingly) lying about having an ex girlfriend die of pancreatic cancer

Just two people thought I was making that up. Fortunately, I got a lot of support from everyone else.

(on edit)

Also, accused of fabricating that I worked in the film industry, over something almost unbelievably trivial--an accusation that actually turned out to be spurious anyway, since I had not said what I was accused of saying in the first place, which was just a difference of opinion about what to call the Director of Photography (who I've always referred to as the Cinematographer, regardless of how others refer to him or her).

[WinkyDink]

114. Basically being a Republican.

[TK421]

115. Being "In love" with myself...yes, that was posted

and I've told close friends, family about that one and they cracked the fuck up over it..it was so ludicrous...

But then again, it WAS posted by an unhinged person so I should give some leeway there



















nah!!!!!!!!!!!! That person was bat-shit insane!!

[BarenakedLady]

119. I'm totally innocent.

It's true!

[DarkTirade]

121. That is a weird accusation...

:P

[BarenakedLady]

124. Are you casting doubt

upon my innocence?

O8)

[last_texas_dem]

120. A FReeper troll once called me a "Clinton humper"

Maybe a couple of months after joining DU, I got the one nasty PM from a FReeper I've ever received and the "Clinton humper" bit is the only memorable line from the e-mail that I can still remember!

[Oeditpus Rex]

123. Lying about the size of my house

A minor-league accusation in and of itself, but...

[GOPisEvil]

126. Hell, they have them almost twice that size.

http://www.skylinehomes.com/floor-plan2.php

Midlo may be on to something...

[BarenakedLady]

127. Wow

:crazy:

[La Lioness Priyanka]

128. that poster is crazy

[Hanse]

125. Apparently I'm a sock puppet for about half of DU.

Ironically, the people accusing me of such all have the same unusual inability to form a rational thought. OK, I guess that's not that unusual in GD.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

129. one more: i was accused of being a stripper who called herself a bellydancer

because the woman was losing an argument on sex work.

[BlueIris]

130. There was one time someone PM'd me to say I was "call(ing) all men rapists."

Yes, I alerted. Yes, s/he's still a member.

[Enrique]

132. I was accused of not understanding the "Brazillion" joke

:rofl:

[mix]

133. asshatery

but that's not so weird

[laconicsax]

134. Gay bashing, white supremacist, dominionist.

All in one comment and all for saying that the Bible has some unpleasant things in it.

[Kali]

135. during a go-round with one of the vegans, he called me a ...

rancher! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:


(Sorry flvegan, don't mean to call you out, but that was too funny)

[mcctatas]

136. some asshole thought I was Midlo's sock puppet...

:P

[Shell Beau]

138. I have been accused of being sundog!

:silly:

[tigereye]

139. being a troll, right after I quit being a moderator!

:rofl:
