        Not a new phenomenon in human nature or on the Internet, by itself. On some wikis (e.g. en.wikipedia.org) there used to be extensive lists of “notorious vandals”, then people realized that this only encouraged them further, now this is more limited, but there still is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Long-term_abuse

              I read that Dan Dan Daaaaaan as the anime not the dramatic music at first and that was kind of hilarious. I probably need sleep.

                This reminds me of once when I was playing the original EverQuest. Someone named Dunn entered the zone and everyone there started OOC broadcasting anything from “Dunn!” to “Dun dun duuuuuuuun!” I was young and sheltered and didn’t get the reference; I messaged the guy something like “what was that all about?” and apparently he didn’t, either. Probably pretty fun to be that popular for thirty seconds for no known reason, though.

    As the owner of !nicole@feddit.org and member of the feddit.org matrix channel, the latest thing we suspect is, per @Peter_Arbeitslos@feddit.org, that it’s recorded footage from legitimate livestreams (on peertube and twitch), which where sometimes linked in messages, as revenge or doxxing.

          If I look up “Myspace Jim,” I get this: https://myspace.com/jim

          Is that what you meant? Based on the result when I load the page, it doesn’t seem reference worthy, but I don’t know of anything else that would be a solid meme.

          This isn’t meant to attack you or your comment, just resolve my own lack of knowledge.

          For what it’s worth, when I read your comment, my thoughts went to “it’s worse than that, he’s dead, Jim, dead, Jim.”

    This girl is insane, literally… 4 spam messages from 4 accounts on 4 different instances , even after I asked her to stop because I’m not interested, even after I banned her and after I reported her, she continued to send the messages as if she didn’t have an atom of dignity and self-respect that prevents her from continuing with something that might expose her to some insults at the very least. In the last two times, it seems that she banned me after she sent the messages so that I can’t do anything about it Because of her behaviors, I was thinking of requesting the feature of disabling inbox, or at least disabling inbox notifications so that I don’t recieve a notification of whatever she send…

          The very first time I can remember getting spam, I was approximately seven. It was an email linking to a porn site, not that I understood that at the time; I don’t actually recall what enticed me to click - I think they referenced “playing in a jungle” and that sounded fun. The text said (roughly, it’s been over three decades) “come look at my site! I’m not wearing any clothes!” and linked to a site featuring several scantily clad individuals but, immediately on entry, a lady in high heels and nothing else.

          I took the email at face value and responded, informing the surely real person sending it that shoes counted as clothes.
