Pick a Popular IC Poster... Figure Out What's Wrong with them

So I visited this wasteland for the first time in a while last night and caught a recap of some of the recent fuckery. Got me to thinking of my time on this form and the people I met. Here's an idea:
Pick a popular poster and describe or guess what you think their affliction is. By popular I mean a poster who actively is involved in drama on the website, whether it's commenting on other posters drama or their own. Every popular poster has been involved in this stuff in some way shape or form. Let's be real, we all have something in common that's missing from our lives. I say "we" because I was one of them. There is a void that is needing to be filled for each of us. So choose a poster and you try to figure out why they felt the need to be attached to a forum of strangers.
I'll start with myself when I was posting wayyyy too often. Alcoholic, moved across the country and wasn't too happy about it. Instead of going to bars and getting into fights, and drama, or getting arrested... I posted on here and actively took part in and created mischief on the Internets.
Your turn
it obviously doesn't have to be yourself, this can maybe be therapeutic for some users. I can think of many...

Damn it late, goodnight. I'll up this before work tomorrow if it's ignored. I am intrigued by the answers.

Hi! How's it going?
I can't really contribute to the thread as I don't really know much about many posters anymore.

half of these "popular" posters always involved in drama were bullied in HS, trying to live a 2nd childhood.

Interesting thread idea, but 🤬 to expect people who don't know the intricacies of your life to be able to provide some desktop diagnosis.
I like the idea of evaluating yourself but folks ain't real enough for that, plus this is Donkey.
Congratulations on getting clean Sunflower. -

Im real enough to self evaluate.
My issue is simple.
1. My self esteem is higher than average.
2. I am controlling because of my mother's controlling ways.
3. I am a 🤬 because i would rather be a 🤬 than a liar & I pride myself on being an honest person.
4. I don't bow down to men & wear the pants in my marriage because my mother was the breadwinner & my father was the stay at home daddy ( I love my daddy so much.. He never hit us... But my mom beat our 🤬 )
Basically... I take after my mother and while growing up my parents told us over & over how we are all special and amazing young ladies and that we are worth more than all the money in the world.
Some dislike that I comeoff as a "better than you" type of person... But really I only see myself as extraordinary. I dont think that im better than anyone. Unless you are a 🤬 or serial killer... Or pathological liar.
My insecurities? Well, I hate my big hands. I hate my non existent eyebrows (which run in the family). And I hate my uneven skin tone (which I am working on).
This is why I am me.

This is Donkey, nobody will take 🤬 like this serious brah .

this place is where some poster escape to feel accomplished, where 🤬 with nothing to hate on accuse you of hating

I was actually popular in highschool.
Varsity cheerleader and everyone knew my name. I went though all of highschcool without any major drama, fights or suspensions.
Elementary/middle school is a different story. I was mean and a bully.
Twice made a boy voluntarily go inside a dumpster.
I learned to tone down my brutal honesty when I got to highschool and just sipped my tea. -

I totally just skimmed through the OP but wrote it off as a '"self evaluation" thread lol -
But why do you escape to the message board world?

I get bored easily.
Im not into social media like everyone else my age is, so what else is there?

And I hate being outdoors.
Im a homebody. -
Well here’s a condensed self-assessment..I'm not too proud to be vulnerable.
I joined when I was 21 bored working at a tech support call center.
I’ve continued working these decent paying office jobs that allow me plenty of time to 🤬 off on the computer which has not encouraged me to step away from the IC.
But even so, I was still out and about with some type of life…then I had a baby. Now I’m working an office job, and pretty much stuck to the house when work is done.
Again, my laziness and fear of failure kept me from seeking other outlets and more productive ways to spend my time.
Enter the boyfriend..now I’m a mother in a relationship, but honestly I wasn’t even in a mental space to try to make a man happy. I can’t even figure out how to make myself happy, but I’m such and such age..I’m supposed to be in a relationship right?
Sometimes I wonder what things would be like had I never joined the IC at all. For all the great people and knowledge shared, there is just as much negativity and ugliness that provide plenty reason to just leave it alone…is the IC my comfort zone?
Life slips away from you if you let it. Days turn into months, which turn into years.
So here we go. Leaving the bf behind and starting a new life that is going to be about figuring out wtf I want, wtf I need.. I’m excited and a little scared, but it’s about to happen. -

oh great, they're being serious again
