Yet another winner from the KJP #ObviouslyPhotoshopped category.

This is aimed at the person sending the messages to Carly: You wanna troll? Here’s some tips on how to troll like a champ:

1) destroy your hard drive. Stick it in your microwave for a minute and watch sparks fly. Make sure you actually destroy it, don’t just get rid of it. Do this often.

2) Get yerself a good VPN and make sure to change your address every few minutes.

3) Delete any and all email accounts you have used to send emails. Make sure it’s a hard delete and not just a “hide from public” delete. 10MinuteMail.net is your new best friend. Don’t forget the VPN!

4) If you’re going to send physical mail, don’t send it from your home or a post office. Find a mail box a few towns over (or the other side of a bigger town) and make sure there are no cameras watching it. Spend $20 at Goodwill and wear baggy clothes, sunglasses, and a hat to disguise yourself and your body type. Make sure to cover as much hair as possible. Once you’ve sent the letter, throw the clothes away in a dumpster or leave them in a public restroom. Changing your shoes is a must. Again, watch for cameras. If a guy in a baggy coat goes into a bathroom and comes out in shorts and a tee a camera will get that information.

This seems like a lot of extra work but it’s worth it to protect yourself. If you’re going to put the energy into sending what could be considered harassment you might as well how to learn to play the trolling game correctly.

Just wanted to say, I only get hate messages from this ONE person. One. Every day. Same IP address. Comments on my blog, on other people’s blogs about me, sends me Tumblr messages, etc. She comments about everything from how I spend too much money, that I’m cheap, that I’m out of shape, that I’m too thin, that I have a horrible diet, that I have no friends, that the friends I have hate me, and it goes on and on and on. Everything contradicts itself but one thing is constant: she hates everything I do.

It’s really bizarre and frankly sad. I hate responding but every 100 messages or so I can’t take it. 💁🏻

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. If you don’t like bananas, don’t go to the grocery store and buy a banana every day. Try an apple or a grapefruit or a watermelon. But for crying out loud, step away from the bananas.

To whoever managed to upload a snap to Youtube: bless you.

This snap was made to reference some inane questions that Ms. Heitlinger receives through her tumblr page. She went on to flash some locations of where these hits were coming from (naming the ISP/business names) before she went on this rant about the readers/posters of the Get Off My Internets forums (GOMI).

To be honest, we do feel that Ms. Heitlinger makes a point or two. That being said, overall the general consensus is that this Snap is petty and unprofessional. Yes, we understand everyone needs to vent every now and then but this is the sort of thing you don’t put online. So, be careful what you snap, you never know when it’ll show up online.

And in the future, Ms. Heitlinger: WWKSD? What Would Kate Spade Do?

“The preppiest man on Instagram”

From the website The Daily Mail:

The lavish life of the 'preppiest man on Instagram' who travels the world staying at private clubs and multi-million dollar estates while always remaining perfectly dressed

Jewelry designer Kiel James Patrick (real name: Kiel James Patrick McKivergan) poses a bit of a problem for the native prep crowd. On one hand, he has a firm commitment to making all of his goods in the USA and sources his materials from local businesses (VP of him). On the other hand, his marketing is over the top and is SNP. Since Mr. Patrick/McKivergan is such a Fitzgerald fan, let me leave you with this quote:

"See!" he cried triumphantly. "It's a bona-fide piece of printed matter. It fooled me. This fella's a regular Belasco. It's a triumph. What thoroughness! What realism! Knew when to stop, too - didn't cut the pages. But what do you want? What do you expect?"

For further reading:

KJP was a model back in the ‘00s--until he started to lose his hair. Here’s his testimonial about the Luce hair treatment he underwent to get his hair back: http://d37kytlsech3f3.cloudfront.net/article/hairlines_march2007.html

And her’s a shot of him in those bygone days of the aughts:

wow. such prep.

Sorry folks, your average “preppy” blogger is really just basic.
