Gothic Horror

A genre of horror that's hands down one of the oldest as it developed in England by an overly dramatic homo named Horace Walpole as the style in America was developed by writers who were historians, school teachers and literary critics in the 19th Century. The American approach was developed by Washington Irving with The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow as the form took on different personalities. In the mid-1990s the writer who eventually wrote The Cabbie Homicide combined double homicide language, philosophical insight and real life horrors such as gang violence, church burning and addressing legalism in the church in a very dark way.

The Cabbie Homicide introduced Gothic Horror into narrative journalism which came out in a way where it was according to "Mohs Scale of Lyrical Hardness" would be a ten. The 20th century approach -- stems from William Hope Hodgson, Bram Stoker with his last novel and short story output, H. P. Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, and others. The House of Pain E-zine shown other examples as Temple of Dagon saw the Cthulhu Now timeline as the new Cthulhu Mythos playground named for the Cabbie Homicide's authors last name. Where it plays up in real cities and real neighborhoods, as it interweaves with the real histories of the area as well.
Edgar Allan Poe's The Telltale Heart gave Gothic Horror a new personality and threw an entirely new approach to the style as he introduced this as a short form. A Cemetery Dream introduced in 2000 had an ultra-violent, extremely gore soaked approach ala Se7en meets Dreams in the Witch House. The Cabbie Homicide when introduced in the LiveJournal Goth Community they thought it was a work of fiction but when he mentioned how the convicted murderer was in his 7th grade homeroom, some friends were going, "That's really fucked up, and especially fucked up that you knew him."

Anderson Cooper

See Globalist Shill and pseudojournalistic donut-puncher. Reality TV host with no journalistic training who like the writer of The Cabbie Homicide had got in the field and developed a form of journalism but the writer of Cabbie is the Conservative example. He had some college but learned from his roster where three wrote for newspapers and another later The Huffington Post before running for office in Maine as he established his current incarnation of wordpress and got on tumblr he gives in depth insight about publications he's done and takes the readers further into the published work by finding the articles from the era.
Anderson Cooper had been a hatedom to those in underground subcultures since picking on Dave Mustaine and William Patrick Corgan. When Corgan let Cooper have it with globalist shill the media had a field day with Anderson Cooper.

Florida Cheerful

Someone who lives in Florida and pretends nothing cynical happens, always looking for positive news when in Michigan someone was pulling a Betty Crocker crime as in she was making brownies with Exlax. You will known the screen names of those when you see them. Don't let them hear you say the term to their face because they know they're being insulted to the core. This one goes back to back with Florida Baptism as you see them come up together.
What is this? Okay those who expect everyone go around not swearing, speaking of taboos or disowning material that's their most well known -- expecting them to use the word 'dropsies' well sorry that's not me. Those who are the Florida Cheerful you will know it when you see it -- mention The Cabbie Homicide around them or read "Yest Ye Become One" around them and see what happens.

double homicide

1.) literal killing of two people sometimes falls into the territory of murder-suicide with no note.
2.) Hardcore aggressive profanity laced retorts when you see them used at the same time. Sometimes the language is mixed with ethnic slur laced prison language. Noted when fuck is used in an aggressive tone,
Oh shit did that investigative journalist use double homicide retorts to the plagiarist behind the Shadow Dolls Plagiarism Affair; fuck he plagiarized the writer behind The Cabbie Homicide. I read a little history about him the first time he took a swipe was with a pen drawing he did in 1997 as it was introduced in a chatroom. It was a KKK hanging from a tree like they'd do when they lynch someone. Don't ever lie to his face or throw a slur combined with the r-word at him because he would throw the fuck into the ground, as he gave chase to a thug in Cabrini Green when he was 19. When he introduced The Cabbie Homicide he shown the literary community he wrote the horror approach as it was a bullhorn for him.

An Eye In Shadows

Five year memoir of the publisher and author behind the true crime outing The Cabbie Homicide, a darker glimpse at how he was bullied and seen misinformation used as an act of bullying. One of his then future contributors who got picked up by Black Sheets Books coined this book his version of The Chocolate War as his namesake anthologies were a direct result.

The book is now with TheBookPatch as it appeared in one form on Lulu.com, Fandom_Wank tried to coin the book glorified fanfiction but he was using horror allegory borrowed from Are You Afraid Of The Dark and played up some of his biting humor from The Fandom Writer. The book was the equal to what Forbes did when they took down fabulist Stephen Glass, as the author seen the film and found the articles -- mindset was doing the same thing on the Fandom_Wank blog to the author. He proved he could be a little funny but was handling subject matter that crossed the line twice as he related some of the crime that unfolded as Chicago Tribune reported on it in the era (one of the jokes he implied to the bully that he gave anal to his own mother.) It's noted for a macabre version of The Aristrocrats joke. Some noted for it's investigative commentary on the true crime pieces from the period as he deconstructed the events of his original creative nonfiction outing along with pundit traits.
Fandom_Wank: remember that psycho who went at us?
other blogger: The fucker who plagiarized Poe?
Fandom_Wank: Shit -- he took one of us out in print!
mindset: which one of us?
Fandom_Wank: He took direct aim at you. Pointing out how you bore false witness. Even went and published your name in the thing and was pulling a Rod Serling on you as he picked you apart without being Anti-Semitic.

The Rusty Nail: An Eye In Shadows -- I am going to post the entire thing on my blog chronicling his every fail.

Comments from The Other Dark Place: Let's put all these comments together and assemble a counter book to this book he's writing.

Cyberbully

an asshole that goes around making doctored pictures and saying it's the particular publication. They would go and harass publishers in message boards and offer pirated written works. Often disreguard the DMCA and would go as far as committing a crime called harassment by phone and harassment by wire. In other words, a writer's worst nightmare.
AngryInIllinois is the classic cyberbully, using fake domains and libious content and passes it off as fact.
