Questionable Content

Lulu.com's thought police when someone does something controversial. Get on their bad side and it will be #RIPProfile and catalog. This was the fatal move that they did when they went after their junkyard dog. If you're talking the web comic of the same name never seen it. Questionable Content were similar to Facebook Jail before the term was coined
Something controversial is published, and they're not pleased. Questionable Content is pissed at you man, "Fuck it I am going after them with the painting of Obama burning the Constitution. The Ethereal Gazette: Issue Five roster is way too important to lose to their thought policing. World Forgiveness Day? That's a joke when they will see what the 4th of July is about."

Fred Durst

See the Chicago Speedway lemon incident as metalheads in Chicago call him "Lemon Nuts" as he got nailed in the nuts with a lemon; it's a guess if a Chicago White Sox pitcher is in the audience and threw the lemon. Durst incited a ho yay laced tirade at Chicago radio icon Mancow Muller as MTV.com reported on the 2003 incident as they were on tour with Metallica. MTV Icon ignored all of Metallica's peers and the rest of thrash metal for that matter as they didn't do the Icon right with them. Chicago Sun-Times chronicled Durst slagging on the fans with the taunts "Fucking Pussies" and the crowd "Fuck Fred Durst" as he was pelted with garbage. They know what heavy metal is as they might have a Trouble album in their collection. The "your baseball teams suck" invoked the lemon to the nuts. It's the most high profile projectile nut shot. The website Metal Underground chronicled the lemon projectile incident as it's the joke that the Chicago metal community runs with; as Anthrax came in town and tore shit up in Chicago Heights. He employed some pretty explicit sexual put downs where The Cabbie Homicide writer is a bit funnier with the degrading insults as he applies some of the putdowns to Mary Sangiovanni as a heavy metal band from Chicago took the insult one step further with the crack, "Fuck her and her porn career."
Fred Durst pertaining to Mancow, "I will be fucking Mancow in the ass on your front lawn" as he storms off stage.

The heavy metal community in Chicago, "What a fucking pussy as we're wanting to attend a Limp Bizkit show with a shopping bag full of lemons so we can aim for his nuts backstage." Fred Durst is associated with the projectile nutshot everyone in the metal community won't let the collective butt of the joke live it down.

FanFiction.net

Website that had a unique database from those who produce pieces from copyrighted properties illicit lit known in creative nonfiction circles though some from this circuit made the rounds in the small press. It's got some strange ones you have to admit as I sneaked Holden's Counterpart a creative nonfiction piece in the vein of Catcher in the Rye with The Twilight Zone influences. Then a shorter science fiction yarn a classmate from Glenbard East which was from the notes he sent me on the character via Deviantart. FanHistory noted this one as did Fanworks.org as it came from the classmate's character as I uploaded it to the site as my then computer was going to crash.

In the 2003-2004 era of this website you saw a rivalry between the writers who appeared on FictionPress.com as some of them have accounts on both places. A few on there are usually in grade school or high school, but sometimes you see a published author, publisher, or journalist emerge on the site as the fannish regulars would try to pull the argument, "Fan fiction is better than the original." As a comment on LJDrama invoked a heated argument that had some wolf ticket taunting on one end. 2005 you seen the first ushering of writers from the website become published in the independent circles though Fandom_Wank and their cohorts single them out on LiveJournal.
Those who emerged from the horror fandoms on this website, as the founder of the website was noted in genre fandom with The X-Files. The writer introduced on Quakes And Storms: A Natural Disaster Anthology also was seen in these circles in the mid-2000s. The publisher behind the namesakes and The Ethereal Gazette busted The Queen of Gargoyle Fanfiction when he uncovered both her fanfiction.net account (she was getting noticed for what E. L. James later did in the 2010s. As she often sniped at creative nonfiction writers who invaded the independent press as small press named for the debut science fiction story brought creative nonfiction into the fold.)

She was torqued when she found out the writer who became known for sniping on slash fanfiction was the very same writer who wrote The Cabbie Homicide in 2002. Just as she was noticed for a Gargoyles fanfic called "Baby Makes Three."

Summer of 2004 was the slash fanfiction writer's nightmare, The Fandom Writer as it was introduced on The House of Pain E-Zine, a cult horror magazine that had frightening horror stories. Quiet a few of the stories on the e-zine some teeth as each writer became publishers. Some of the Nightmare On Elm Street horror fandom was looking up some of The House of Pain authors from the 2003 era as she found "The Mechanics of Perversion" and "Baby Hunter" then almost left a puddle behind the keyboard. Then found some of the future Chimeraworld roster on the House of Pain E-Zine website.

The New Republic

The Narrative Journalism Magazine that was the start of the fabulist spree of Stephen Glass as he fabricated his sources in the mid-to-late 1990's. I studied the debacle to go double homicide with the taunting in the Shadow Dolls Plagiarism affair. My then room mate who was known for writing for Outburn and Chain D.L.K. rented the film based on the Buzz penned article from Vanity Fair. I had managed to pinterest the article and my facebook page exclusive as I caught a low-fi act from Boston trying to liken me to Stephen Glass as I called one of them a chomo as he was trying to say I was pretending to be a toughie as I pulled out a track of his album and a track from a compilation that I picked up on Bandcamp. I freight-trained the little fuck over his speaking ill of the Derleth family in front of me. He was the one who invoked a twitter war with me when I was active on the Cradle of Filth social network at the time. I have the blog tag "Plagiarism Scandals" as I was preparing to nail the SomethingAwful goon plagiarist for stealing my output along with Kealan's fanbase getting caught. In a PDF I wrote tweeting to VampireFreaks I pulled a demolition man move saying I am willing to reinstate Jayson Blair for one sole purpose -- go after the SomethingAwful plagiarist.
Reading about the Stephen Glass fabulist scandal on The New Republic as I saw the film in 2006 then ended up finding these fabrications floating around first hand. It helped me lay into the serial plagiarist David Boyer in what's now known as Shadow Dolls Plagiarism Affair. Boyer's plagiarism spree was longer than both Glass or Blair. Some in journalism circles saw The Cabbie Homicide as a frightening display of investigative journalism when it was written entirely from memory. In the era of the original events from 1993-1994, Chicago Tribune reported on the same subject for a good part of a year, from the murder to the turn of the subjects on each other then to the throwing the book at them.

mindset

A high profile member of Fandom_Wank that bit off more than she can chew when she engaged the writer of The Cabbie Homicide where he decided to really lay into her in his five year memoir. The other one from Fandom_Wank was stealing his published material for the Fandom Wank wiki. They though Anne Rice was fierce, the man behind The Fandom Writer equates Fandom_Wank as 'slash writing fags' and had called them pseudo-journalists as he found Mindset's workplace and her real name.
fandom_wank Mindset made her livejournal friends only because of the affair in 2006 where she took aim at the much harder hitting author as he made waves on The House of Pain as she reported on Anne Rice lashing back at shit-reviewers. The piece that took a harsh swipe at slash fanfiction writers. "You're a thief with a word processor." When she was located on Facebook.com in 2007 and confronted; that was the fuel the author needed to fire back in print.

Black Comedy

(No I am not talking comedy by african-american comics) this kind of comedy is born from taboos and subject matter that crosses the line twice. See New York Post taunt that freight-trained Jared Fogle as social justice warriors and snowflakes along with NoBama got pissed when twitter were hashtagging Five Dollar Footlong as implying it's not exactly a sandwich. This kind of humor is the type that can invoke a fist fight when taunted by bullies as you can imply the jokes about genetic attraction, as in hindsight with a recent article showing up it's a bit 'grosser than gross' in hindsight. I employed this kind of humor when engaging Eric Hovind on Creation Science Evangelism back in 2014 where I made a grisly one implying that the megalodon shark was in the water with Noah's Floating Zoo and one of the animals fell in the water when the fin was breaking the surface of the water. Or you can also use the film Carnosaur to illustrate human-dinosaur co-existence really looks like as I coined this "The Corman Retort."
The author of Gulliver's Travels is one of the your examples of black comedy with the piece "A Modest Proposal" as he might had inspired Edgar Allan Poe with his satire output, Holden's Counterpart has tons of black comedy examples as the self-depreciation using the Italian slurs. The Fandom Writer was also my first approach with grim humor with dark horror elements.

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."
