Well, here it is: Wikipedia's best article.
Jeremy duQuesnay Adams (October 1, 1933  – May 2, 2016) was a medieval historian, polymath, and translator. His interests included Joan of Arc and the Matter of Britain, as well as human groupings and exclusion.[2][3]

He was an inspiration for the character Jeremy Hillary Boob in the film Yellow Submarine.[4]

Since the film's set in the 1950s, this'll have to be updated to the days when Jimmy Porter was burning his wife's arm and Arthur Seaton was being ground down by bastards

I liked PITT a lot more when the trolls minded their own business. This was the one place for crushed parents and we can’t even have this space anymore without the crazy cult and their pitchforks.

I’m so sorry this happening to your family. It’s typical playbook manipulation from this group of folks. Conform or else. I’d rather the or else. It’s not easier by any means but it’s certainly less abusive.

You shouldn't have this space. It's not good for you. What you should do is accept your kids for who they are. But PITT teaches you to wallow in self pity and to be cruel and mean to your children while blaming non-existent conspiracies in Minecraft. Being on PITT is the reason you are so miserable and destroying it would be the biggest favor anyone could ever do you.

All your suffering is self-inflicted and could be ended overnight if you simply had the strength of character to admit you were wrong.

It WAS a support group of parents. And yes, I did like it. People were actually kind to you in the comment section. Obviously word has gotten out. As if we haven’t lost enough already.

You haven't lost anything you would not last a day in a trans person's shoes. This is not a support group it is a cult for abusive parents. Good riddance.

In 1995 Newsweek opened an article on anime with a profile of artist/fashion designer Hushi Mortezaie, then a student. In 1999 AnimeNewsNetwork published a weirdly hateful response baselessly accusing Mortezaie of heroin addiction and declaring him "probably dead" (in reality he'd opened a boutique)
Hushidor Mortezaie is bored with being human. He's ready to mutate. He's got a tattoo on his leg of a battery pack and a bar code stamped MADE IN JAPAN. He's had a nose job, some lipo. His close-cropped hair changes color like a mood ring. Even among the freaky salesclerks he works with at Patricia Field--a store servicing the fashion fetishes of New York's downtown club scene-Hushi sticks out. In his Japanese clogs and plaid Bermudas, he doesn't just look like a cartoon. He wants to be one. Not just any cartoon: a Japanese cartoon like Speed Racer or Astro Boy! He's getting contact lenses that'll simulate little 'toon twinkles in the corners of his eyes. "That black sparkle," Hushi says. "To me, it's the ultimate in being a posthuman android."The article started off not with a mention of, say, Osamu Tezuka or Hayao Miyazaki (as more well-written pieces in the New York Times and a few others have), but with a description of a 20-year-old mowhawked heroin junkie with a microchip tattoo. While it admitted that the notorious MTV show Aeon Flux wasn't REALLY anime, it did insinuate that fandom for the two were one and the same. And it associated all of us with this beautiful person who, truth be known, is probably dead or is sucking bottom in the American cultural food chain. Certainly MY role model...

In March 2000 a comics reviewer wrote a negative commentary on issue 1 of Garth Ennis's Punisher, and received the following response. It remains untopped in the history of online discourse.
hey u piece of horse shit

the punisher is one of the best Marvel books ever published

i know all u like to read is books approved by the comic code (which is something just as worthy of a gang killing as u)

u motherfuckin hippy

i hope u die

and if u ever say shit bout Garth, i will seriously kick yo' fuckin ass all over this Goddamn place

fuck u and all your no violence bullshit, unless youre some fucked up, tree huggin hippy (which im sure u are) whos high on crack, everybody likes violence and that grossman guy, fuck him too, u actually bought that fuckin book?

u serioiusly suck cock for a living

why do u shame the comic book industry by buyin the books and writin shit about them

i wish your head was twisted 180 degrees because u surely deserved it from what i read
