nonfic

The slang term in fanfiction net when they have a journalist invading the website. When they get outted as a fanfiction writer they try to come up with something insulting to creative nonfiction writers. "The1upguy" on fanfiction.net tried to slander a creative nonfiction writer as he saw Holden's Counterpart as he saw that the barb was directed at him as he got on him for saying "fuck" in an abrasive way. Hack is one of the slurs that creative nonfiction writers get from both the fictional and fanfiction communities as they're seen as the bastard child of the literary community. The Ethereal Gazette: Issue Five, Tales of the Talisman Vol 2.1, Withersin: Birth Issue, Dark Gothic Resurrected: Autumn '07, and The Ethereal Gazette: Issue 10 as Shock Totem saw the trend of creative nonfiction getting a macabre treatment too. Though The Ethereal Gazette is the one that ushered the form in the independent press circuit as a token paying market in 2005.

Fanfiction writer one: FUCK we got one of those invading fandom.
What's that?

A goddamn nonfic as he invaded the site with a vengeance as he took a swipe at what he called pseudo-novelists.

Magic Underwear Jokes

The quickest thing to piss of a Jello Eating Bunny aka Latter Day Saint is make a really degrading joke about their temple undergarments or call The Book of Mormon alternate history fanfiction of the King James Version of the Bible. Also imply that Joseph Smith was a womanizing con man who married his women to keep his sex life in check. They really hate when one attributes their doctrine to rodents copulating (as this one is a favorite barb.) There's my critic of religion status confirmed.

"I don't believe that my boxer briefs are magical, as in you mean to tell me you never cut a greasy fart in those magic underwear and leave a skidmark." My retort when I caught the webmaster mocking my most personal project as an editor as the cover was the second time I saw fan-art -- the artist was my breakout from Issue 3 and came to Issue Five as he was the cover artist for the first time.

My enraged comment came when I learned a blogtroll decided to send the cover to the webmaster as he took aim at it; I had seen very strong covers over the years as a lot of my own projects came from my photography output. His response after seeing the barrage of Magic Underwear Jokes combined with double homicide whamlines, "Hey, I’ve got an idea! How about we DON’T refer to other people’s religious beliefs in the most degrading way possible, and instead behave like civilized beings, not total dickwads, okay? It’s called “civilization.” You may have heard of it." The response was on par to Deva's "yer taking to care bears' retort on twitter.

Prison City Rules

In small press publishing that's code:

No erotic content, but other than that NO HOLDS BARRED

The Ethereal Gazette was noted for it's STRICT house rules rivaling the mentality of the Duggar household but aspects that differ as he defined to another who was doing anthologies, another editor knew the rules he coined -- other publishing imprints know this as Prison City Rules. No erotic content but no holds barred. Rule out sexual content but time the swearing, go for subject matter that's ideologically sensitive and able to address social issues when pulling this off. The Issue Five roster embodied the Prison City Rules approach.

Tumblr

It's an interesting website, though it's one that libtards try to gain dominion when it comes to political correctness. The Cabbie Homicide author came to there and did a piece called "No One Understands Chicago" as he examines former Cradle of Filth backing vocalist Sarah Jezebel Deva. He points out she should better educate herself in social studies and enroll in a psychology class to give her material more venom. The username of his tumblr is under his short name and real last name to show readers of his anthologies a bit where he came from before he was published as he has some rather in depth blogs. The post invoked a one sided twitter war where he kept his cool and she retorted with "I bet you talk to care bears." The tweet had him cracking up because she modeled her lyrical output more akin to Nu Metal than her Symphonic Metal contemporaries. The blog revealed some aspects about the 9/11 attacks as they're not an inside job as German magazine, Der Spiegel, chronicled with the English translation of their full length report titled "Inside 9/11: What Really Happened" as he bought the VampireFreaks admin this book as commentators were calling him a Conspiracy Theorist from the information this magazine pointed out. It's quite handy for Conservative bloggers as they can use youtube documentaries for additional venom to their in depth blog entries.

Tumblr is noted for a unique presentation of a write up for the lead singer of Bloodgood's reading of Edgar Allan Poe The Tell-Tale Heart and a presentation speaking about how one editor chose The Monkey's Paw for his most personal anthology project. It's also noted for noting the debate of KenHam and BillNye as a similar exchange happened between The Cabbie Homicide writer and "Dr." Kent Hovind's son as it was played up almost akin to his first science fiction story as he was known on VampireFreaks as.

Dagon

The name of the bull shark in Lake Michigan named for the story by H. P. Lovecraft, an urban legend with teeth going back before the dinosaurs. Some cases being related of a Bull Shark also found in Lake Erie too, okay the short story "Yest Ye Become One" becomes even more frightening of other cases of this -- WGN in Chicago did a blog entry asking the question. The light blue blog reblogged this making smart ass remarks about how Chicago managed to gain a new pet. Takes what Sharknado and implies it was leftover from that.

By the way; you may not want to put domestic abusers or child sex offenders in a boat with a hole drilled in it within the water's of Lake Michigan. You may never know when an urban legend with Flesh and Teeth comes up doing a bite and run, did we mention we gave him a name. His name is Dagon.

UCLA

1.) University of California Los Angles

2.) University Closest To Lombard Area

I am going to discuss the second definition; it's origins was a classmate in Glenbard East in 1994 prior to graduating as it was in Judo she made the crack. It's a joke referring to some of the colleges in Chicagoland as in the 1990s there was Wheaton College, College of DuPage, Elmhurst College (quite a few are accredited while they have a few where RationalWiki would coin as Fundie School. Two of the alumni from Northwest Baptist Theological Seminary are responsible for major Investigative publication of the Evangelical sect known as Christianity Today and the other was responsible for one of the Illinois translations known as The Living Bible. ) Some of the Gazette were from the City College system as this was where WYCC originated. Young Earth Independent Baptist schools have the name crank school tagged to them because of Uneducated Huckster and Fucking Cartoon promoting diploma mills. Hence the term in DuPage County known as UCLA -- aka University Closest to Lombard Area.

docuhorror

It's a relatively new style of horror that emerged with an anthology called Reality Check: An Anthology Of Horror. It's part horror story part documentary (the narration is used as an unspoken narrator, the video camera, TV camera, or portable vid camera.)

The Blair Witch Project is a good example of the docuhorror sub-genre. This kind of horror makes one think. It makes it scary because it would have a real time effect.
