Why are we dissing on SlimVirgin here?
She's posted very cogent arguments about ArbCom's failings here. In fact, she agrees with many of the proposals first suggested by users here, and argues for them is a straightforward way. Quite frankly, there's much more criticism of Wikipedia in her posts on Jimbo's talk page than there is in this whole thread.
I get that some people see her as a prolific past abuser, but if she wants to help reform ArbCom, I bless her for it.
Yes, that is a question I´m increasingly asking (and I came to the Review so the I could diss her -and not get blocked). I think the questions she asks are quite relevant. (Of course, it is the mother of all ironies that Slimmy is asking them )
I guess one reason that we still react the way we do towards Slimmy is that she never, ever admit to doing wrong. It is as if her personality is too weak, too fragile to admit the possibility that she is not perfect.
I wish that somebody who was friendly with Slimmy could give her some good advise, like: at the next opportunity apologise publicly on WP for defending Matanmoreland...and for blocking Wordbomb. (Regretting it privately on some Skype-conversation isn´t quite enought...not when all her abuse was quite public.) I think she would be very, very surprised by the amount of forgiveness such an act would be met with.
I know someone else who's going to upload a picture of himself as a toddler, if he can find one. He was far more slovenly at that age.
I want one! Shame I looked like a skinny, female version of Damien out of The Omen as a child.
Here it is.
What do you think? The rumpled blue suit... the clip-on tie... the malevolent scowl of pure hatred...
I'm rather pleased with it.
TFMWNCB would like you to know he apologizes for his parents' abysmal photographic preservation skills (note the dust, scotch tape, etc.)
Hwooooha, lovely! Muuuchhh nicer than the Virgin! (IMHO) That "malevolent scowl" was due to all those grown-up ladies hugging you all the time, right? And you were helpless to prevent it?
