Recent Fuckery in Fandom

transemacabreAh, batshit crazy fanbrats. Good to know nothing's changed in fandom and I can go along being embarrassed to be associated with the whole thing.
1) A fan pretended to be Tom Hiddleston's old makeup artist and got him to friend her and her "sister" on Twitter. She then told him a friend of hers would be in town and wouldn't be so kind as to show her around? Tom Hiddleston is a nice man and said yes. Then it came out that the makeup artist was a fake, her sister was a fake, and the "friend" was presumably the crazy fanbrat herself, desperately trying to get close to Tom Hiddleston.
If I were Tom Hiddleston, I'd lock myself in my house and never leave again.
2) Jeph Jacques, creator of Questionable Content, posted a story about a character who is uncomfortable with wearing a bathing suit because she has poor self-image. SJWs respond by complaining that she's not fat enough and call him a horrible person.
He has an emotional breakdown and stabs himself in the hand, severing two tendons, requiring a stay in the hospital. His breakdown was apparently partly caused by the response from SJWs.
This is why we can't have nice things.
