>Well well well; A flock of fat BRDs including SRS moderator dicktortoise or what ever teaming up with ... TOTALLY NOT SRS Subreddit Drama moderator Semebay for some serious cringe. [TRIGGER WARNING: losers]
Damn, that might be the most bitter title ever. I mean, over a t-shirt parody sub?
Wonder how up in arms I can get them over /r/ShitRomneySays.
Am I the only one wondering what a BRD is?
It's a Bard in Final Fantasy.
Spoony bard...

Ooo! I know this one! It took me a while, but someone called me a "brd" in an Advice Animals thread where I called them a misogynist (because, you know, they are). And I was like "brd? WTF is a brd?"
In SRS they have a fat blue bird with a blank stare as their mascot. They call it "brd".
This makes some people really MAD!
I don't know if SRS people actually call themselves brds or if it's a pejorative from the anti-SRS reddit contingent, but "brd" refers both to the SRS mascot and to SRS members themselves.
(So proud I managed to dig far enough back to find all that shit out myself, it's like internet archaeology. Also, I love that effing bird, it's hilarious.)
Someone got it into their head that it was an acronym for Burn/Bring Reddit Down; that's why the people on SRSsucks all capitalize it.
(it wasn't an acronym, the brd was clipart that someone posted in irc and people found amusing enough to make it the mascot)
it is a really, really funny attempt at a pejorative. basically what happened is the srs moderators put that stupid, fat, adorable bird at the top of the sub one day because why not, everyone was like "yeah, that's pretty great, let's run with that, PRAISE BRD," and that's the entire story.
THEN the insane weirdos that spend all day panicking about SRS somehow got it into their heads that brd is an acronym for Bring/Burn Reddit Down, and that the stupid fat cute bird is actually some kind of codebrd for Internet Agents to pass around to encourage eachother to stay strong in the reddit struggle or something. because that makes sense.
then srs heard of this theory, laughed really hard, and started going out of their way to feed that crazy theory for a while. these jokes were turned into "SEE? SEE? THEY ADMIT IT!" now idiots are convinced that brd actually is an incredibly publicly secret acronym about destroying reddit, so they've attempted to take the "power" out of the phrase by using it to refers to Hated SRSers. it's hilarious.
> convinced that brd actually is an incredibly publicly secret acronym about destroying reddit
Come on. You know it is. The writing is on the wall.
"Blank stare" ... so young so naive!
If you zoom in you see it's actually an inverse pacman eating your karma points. It's mouth is literally a triangle, wake up sheeple!
All I know for sure is that brd has seen some shit.

BRD is what they call the big silly looking bird picture in their subreddit. Some people have said it stands for "Bring Reddit Down". But it's all just rumor and bullshit so who knows.

It's so ridiculously petty that it brings a tear to my eye. Don't ever change, Reddit.
Why do they hate shirts so much? Pants are the worst. I mean, fact, everyone loves walking around in a shirt and their undies.
>Pants are the god damn worst. You know the reason I look forward to the weekend all week? No pants.
And this truthism was downvoted to nearly -20. I feel nauseous.
It's a topsy turvy reality we're in when pants apologists are free to roam the earth spreading their pants propaganda.

Call me old fashioned, but not wearing a shirt is a choice!
It's not a choice you filthy shirtlord! I was born this way!
They probably think that because their little corner of reddit agrees with his shitty worldview that the rest of the world must agree with him.

I guess it will be a race to make /r/theblueskirt now.
/r/RedSkirts is the analogue for /r/RedPillWomen. That sub you'd want is /r/TheBlueShirt which doesn't exist yet.

for a moment I read /r/RedPillowWomen

For what it's worth, CSS isn't exactly a useless skill outside of reddit. You get good at that, Javascript, and HTML and you can get a job as a front end web developer.
Oh no, it totally isn't. I should really learn it for other reasons. Just not to be a dumbass on reddit.
/r/TheRedPants up and running.
Edit: Mod applications open.

I can steal their stylesheet for you ;)
Ooooh shit thanks, that might be it.
Still you're a shirtlord and I already banned you, it's good I did since it's clear that not even other shirts can trust you not to betray them, so why the hell would pants?

Hear that? Shirts = feminism now.
Of course.
Feminism paved the way for women to wear what was considered men's clothing, so people who once wore blouses would start wearing shirts. This is...
Uh...
Nah, I got nothing.
Game. Blouses.
Shirts lead to lesbianism which leads to divorce which leads to wide spread shirt wearing.
It's a vicious cycle.

Pro-shirts is codeword for anti-pants!
How are we like SRS? We share a mod, yeah, but that seems pretty weak 'evidence.'
While this sub doesn't have a set agenda, groups that we make fun of tend to accuse us of working 'with the enemy'. More of the right-wing style subs tend to think this sub is in bed with SRS, though the drill down revealed the wide majority of this subreddit also hangs out at /r/tumblrinaction (pretty close to opposite of SRS).
I've heard /r/conspriacy call us right wing Neocons, SRSsucks call us SJWs, SRS call us shitlords, TRPers call us bluepillers. We're everything apparently. But mostly SRS.
Somebody break out the shill schedule.
I do think this sub leans a bit to the left. I'm still here because I'm OK with that. We're not even close to (the paranoid nightmare imaginings of) SRS.
And it's not that long ago that we were literally antiSRS-lite and constantly getting complaints about how this sub was slowly turning MRA. I wonder what happened.
SRS slowed down quite a bit in terms of activity while TheRedPill and SRSsucks haven't. Way less drama starting with srs these days
> I wonder what happened.
/u/david-me got banned.
Nah, that was recent. Even when david-me was allowed here there were cries of SRS-slant from ValiantPie and co. This started sometimes in 2013 and I'm just not sure why. I'll guess Laurelai left.
That pie guy likes to come in here and yell at clouds, I've noticed.
Wait, when and why did /u/david-me get benned?
Just a few weeks ago.
There was friction with the mods for months though, he was constantly teetering on the edge of finally pissing the mods off to get him banned.
http://www.reddit.com/r/ThePopcornStand/comments/27fkno/udavidmehasbeenbannedfrom_rsubredditdrama/
That was the permanent one.

The thing about that is, we make fun of SRS people a fair bit as well. This sub's diverse with tons of opinions on the gender wars represented (Although mostly: WHO GIVES A FUCK YOU DRAMA KING/QUEEN), it's just that TRP and MRAs tend to say really cringeworthy things and start drama so they get mocked a lot.

It's because we make fun of the people who are posted. So when drama from /r/KillAllTheJews gets posted, SRD makes fun of them, and people who want to kill all the jews perceive us as SRS or whatever, but when drama from /r/I'mOnMyPeriod get posted, people who hate jokes think we're nazis or whatever.

I moderate /r/badhistory and we've recently been accused of being an "SRS satellite sub." Fuck if I know how they've come to that conclusion.
probably because /r/badhistory sometimes points out that racism and sexism exist
But not historically. That's presentism.
OMG they acknowledge that women weren't sitting around eating bonbons for all of human history. They're SRS! shun shun shun
"I REFUSE YOUR REALITY AND SUBSTITUTE MY OWN!"

Well, /r/badhistory isn't horribly racist, and it seems at this point to be the considered opinion of the SRSSucks people that anything non-horribly-racist must be SRS. They've kind of become parodies of themselves.

SRS does an excellent job deleting drama (unfortunately), so we mostly get drama submitted from places like TRP. This makes people think we have an anti-TRP -- and therefore pro-SRS -- agenda.

i'm worried this might overheat /u/totesmetabot.
Thank you for your concern. We at /r/botsrights always appreciate awareness of the struggles that disadvantage bots face.
As much as I hate /r/ShitRedditSays , I'd say that /r/SRSsucks is almost full of larger crybabies. This is hilarious, and the SRS-er handled it greatly.
They're just annoyed because PROPER PATRIARCHS (and it is well-established that most of SRSSucks think the patriarchy is meant to be a literal cabal of men) wear robes, not shirts. You wouldn't catch Noah wandering around in a shirt.
And this is why I left that sub.
Not sure if it was always like that and I just didn't see it, or it slowly got worse and more insane.
Either way, not a nice place.
I mean it branched off of /r/antisrs because /r/antisrs wasnt terrible enough so it probably didnt have much good left in it to begin with
