>One of the girls in my class has a fedora, black hair with green highlights, scene/emo clothes and a bag full of anime pins

Does she live with her parents? Why would a 30 year old listen to her stepfather regarding something like that?

She lives with her mom and stepfather. I've mentioned her before on past threads, as Coloring-Chan.

oh god, not colouring-chan
how's her colouring going along? Recently I received a colouring book as a gift and the first thought I had was 'I hope I'm not the next colouring-chan'

[Anonymous No.9112164]

>>9112138
She hasn't been posting as much about it but every once in a while she'll show off her new purchase. I'm talking to her less now that the convention is over which is probably why she's popped up all of a sudden blaming me for getting her into PokeGo and even tagging the team friend in her posts as well (even if team friend admitted to me she can't stand CC). Aside from that she just posts vaguely threatening FB memes like "If any of my friends dared leave me I have X amount of years worth of dirt on them" and once in a while brings up "Oh by the way I have all these stories/pictures of you back from your weeb days."

I haven't fully told her to fuck off yet but only because we rarely speak so I don't see the point of opening the can of worms if I were to just block her everywhere. She's been my motivational tool as well to better myself so there's that.


>I hope I'm not the next colouring-chan

She's nowhere near that bad, she's more PT than anything else with the way that if you try to help her or offer her advice she'll either:
1. Ignore you
2. Get depressed
3. Get upset and blame someone else

Like she blames her stepfather for her not being able to drive because he didn't use money from his deceased father's will to buy her a vehicle or send her back to Korea for a year.
Or when I told her there's a rural bus that could pick her up from the boonies to take her to classes/work and stuff she got depressed and said she's got nowhere to go anyway so why bother.

>>9112421
Well she's bipolar and unmedicated so she does get a low swing when she's faced with stuff. That and deludes herself into thinking she's going back to the kpop land. She's been saying she's going back to Korea for years but now she's trying to get disability or some kind of government support for her mental problems and said she'll use the money to go to a convention with me.. whether I invited her or not.

[Anonymous No.9112719]

>>9112030
I just spent the past hour reading up on the Coloring-chan discourse.
She reminds me a bit of a girl I used to be friends with, except she didn't have bipolar disorder, at least from what I could tell.
I dropped her with some "ohhh we don't really have anything in common anymore, boooo" excuse (which honestly wasn't true but whatever).
She's still tooting around, never went through with all those "I'll kill myself if you leave me!" demands, same as ever except without me in the picture.

Anyway, don't feel bad about dropping her. It's weird the kind of stress-lift you get after a while.
And about the "I have dirt on you!!" thing, I doubt she has enough friends for it to really have much of an impact, especially if those other friends feel the same as you do.

[Anonymous No.9112776]

oh my god, coloring-chan reminds me of a friend of my ex gf's, I guess I sort of knew her too? close enough, so I'll give you guys some highlights

>met ex gf and cringey friend when i was 20-21, cringey friend was 28 at the time. i'll call her Will because we were all obsessed with Hannibal and she RPed Will Graham on tumblr.
>Will went to ex gf's university, was taking a total of ONE class in order to graduate (why it took her until age 28 to graduate with a bachelor's degree i have no fucking clue)
>never had a job, couldn't drive, lived with parents, always begging for rides from people. parents took her to and from college
>spent literally all her time RPing on tumblr, took it extremely seriously
>had a girlfriend (I guess) who was 21 and lived across the country. Will was supposed to go visit this girlfriend, but she backed out because she was too scared to travel by herself and had MUH ANXIETIES over staying at someone else's house
>also didn't learn to drive or get a job because ANXIETIES

later on:
>finally fucking graduates college, still no job and no ability to drive. just sits around at home, RPing on tumblr
>rich ass white family takes her to Italy as a graduation present. she spends the entire time complaining that she can't get on her tumblr

[Anonymous No.9112783]

>>9112776
later still:
>decides she's GENDURRKWEER tumblr fakeboi, posts on FB constantly about how being pregnant terrifies her (congrats, you're a normal person who doesn't want to get pregnant?) but she still wants to "PASS ON HER GENES" and she fantasizes about BEING A FATHER
>dear god please let this woman never have children
>she's also super right-wing despite tumblry shit, also posts about how the minimum wage doesn't need raised because it's supposed to be a "supplementary income" for people who just "~feel like working~" while the main breadwinner or whatever makes the actual living income
>at the time both my girlfriend and me were working minimum wage jobs despite her having a degree and mine in progress, trying to make enough to move in together, just the two of us. i was pretty sick of Will's shit at this point so I made a comment along the lines of "Oh, and where are we supposed to get this magical more-than-minimum-wage income, please enlighten me"
>keep in mind Will has literally never worked a day in her life
>predictably gets all pissy at me, eventually deletes me off FB
>which is a mixed blessing because on one hand, she was a 30 year old woman acting like a spoiled 14 year old and annoying as fuck, on the other hand, made me feel a lot better about myself

She also spent all her money (that her parents gave her) on merch, cosplays, going to conventions, etc. and then would complain that she had no money. Apparently that "anxiety" that stopped her from ever learning to drive or holding a job didn't stop her from going to huge conventions like SDCC, and plenty of smaller ones all summer.

Unfortunately for her I have good standing in the community, after a few friends had heard the story of said weekend from hell she suddenly finds herself being side eyed a bit at cons.

The only reason I havent purged her from my facebook is I dont want out right animosity from her if I have to work with her again another year. So I'm biting my tongue for now, but this is my last year with the troupe before I move.

I mean you have to be optimistic to a sense. I know I was probably that cringey friend at some point in my life. People can grow out of it, and some its easy enough to look past.

One of my best friends was a bit cringe at first, but behind that was a very sweet great girl that just had to tone down her love of one piece a bit.

That being said she's now Kuroshit garbage and she describes herself as "otaku trash" on her Instagram profile so I think I may have fucked up. At least she likes FMA.

She'll grow out of it anon. We were eihter all there or knew many people that were there. At least you opened her up to another medium that holds really great story telling when she works her way around to it. Thats more than I can say for Twilight.

CC OP here, sorry I've been missing in action. Yeah the 'dirt' she has on me is just dumb teen weeb photos and some mildly embarrassing stories that are 5+ years old. I really should just completely cut her out of my life but it's 50/50 pity and wanting to be better than her after all the years she bragged to me about having her shit together and being a foreign traveling college student. Now everything is flipped and she's a lonely shut-in clinging to her kpop shrine (literal shrine) while I'm the one getting my shit together and coming out of my anxiety shut-in behavior.

I'm afraid to ask how much she's spent because on top of this she asks her limited income mother to fund her kpop and dating sim addiction. She spent a bunch on Steam before and during the summer sale to get games there. There's also 'necessary' trips nearly two hours away to go to an Asian market to get her kimchi and ramen. She also pays a premium to get them delivered to her from online grocery stores.

that's most of the stuff I can think of right now. She's moved away from lolita and cosplay because it's "not normal." Since then she's mellowed out and matured a bit, but, well..

She's still there and still Koreaboo.

This was after she bitched for several posts about how her mom is more into it than she was and how her mom keep pestering her to go into town with her to catch some.

I think you can't do anything. My ex best friend wanted to got into lolita after me (she was a total weeb so she knew about it before) and she knew that length of the dress or the type of the lace didn't matter. Her favorite shop was also Milanoo. She did eventually buy few decent dresses but never wore them out. People who are stubborn and too lazy or disinterested to actually do their research are impossible to teach and waste of time, unfortunately.

Worst thing is she would bait people into answering questions with false prompts to turn around to go “lol you're so racist” because in reality it was a racism test instead of the previous survey question and her Tumblr is full of extreme sjw articles without fact checking them at all while doxx posts circulate on innocent people. Last I hear she still talks about how she totally had queer relations with me and I fear that she told even mutual friends and they believe her. Whenever I think about it I get so angry

[Anonymous No.9125258]

I sometimes hang out with a cosplayer at cons. She's sweet and really nice to hang out with in irl. Her internet activities however:

>licks the heels of every cosplayer who (she thinks) is popular in our country.
>has a book with pictures of said popular cosplayers and a description of why they are awesome.
>shares pictures of the book on Facebook and even tags the cosplayers (doesn't matter if you ever spoke to her).
>follows Facebook give aways, cosplayers, yaoi, flavor of the month like a religion.
>fails finals because of it.
>calls her all-girls photoshoots 'delicious fanserves'.
>is of course also a Koreaboo and mimics all the K-stars
>photoshops her chin as bad as Eikkibunny. (The only reason I never posted her here is because I believe she'll grow out of it).
>doesn't realise that nobody is going to believe that that is her real face, when your face, in tagged pictures, is as round as the moon.

She's you typical weeb, who doesn't realise she's creeping out people and that people are making fun of her. I even know that one's cosplayers photoshops class always watch her photos to laugh at and use it as example of what not to do.

Worst part is that I or anybody else can say anything about it, without her weeb friend (who hope to be as "popular" as her) whiteknighting her.

Dude you have no idea. It also makes me think twice on if the girl I like really does like girls. I'm just... so beside myself? How can someone do stuff like that? Who tells people who they have sex with anyways? So awkward but I wanna just be successful so when she sees me at a con she might muster up some regret of what she did.
She posted a post about how you should protect LGBT and how dangerous outing others to people can be so she was highly hypocritical and probably hoping by outing me I'd be disowned by my family...

Yuck, yeah, glad you got out of that one.

Reminds me of a story:
>In Japan with husband
>Trying to find our way to a stop on an Evangelion stamp rally
>Stop on stamp sheet only says, "Warudo 9, Shinjuku," and we have no idea what that is so we're just wandering around hoping we'll spot it
>Husband leads as we wander to and fro for a good forty minutes.
>I'm getting frustrated, we've just been going in circles, I have three gum samples I picked up from the same girl we passed three times to prove it
>I suggest we ask a police officer or a station master
>(I hope he'll ask because I'm very shy)
>Husband is SURE we can find it on our own
>I pick up two more samples from walking by that same gum girl two more times over the next half hour
>Reiterate that we should ask for help
>He refuses, he says we can find it on our own
>I've finally had enough, I tell him that I'm taking over
>Go into nearest subway station, nervously fumble through some terrible Japanese to the station master
>The place we're looking for is actually "Wald 9", a movie theater. He kindly gives me a map and marks the path we should take, even points out landmarks to find to make sure we're on the right path
>Husband is really upset, "we could've found it by ourselves! Why did you ask him? We could've done it!"
>Wald 9 was in a completely different area of Shinjuku, it would've taken all day for us to find it
>Husband is fuming the rest of the day
>Gum was good though

Fortunately a lot of good came from it! Somehow that one instance of asking for directions broke down a lot of my shyness and I'm no longer nervous about asking for assistance from authorities like that. Whenever husband and I are lost now, I ask for directions and if he says anything all I have to do is say something like, "Oh? And maybe you can find Wald 9 while you're at it" and he quiets down and lets me get assistance.

I actually really like character birthdays. It's fun to see what people do for their favorite characters. I share a birthday with a character I really like, so I bake a cake for him every year.

I hate to be that person, but seriously, what's the deal with some people and asking for directions? It's the silliest thing.

Also, re-reading my posts, I can't believe that I was with that man for nearly five years. There are so many instances of him throwing tantrums, sometimes violent (throwing things, punching things, stabbing things), almost always over something stupid. And the drinking. And the attention-whoring. What the hell was I thinking?

Back when I was 14 I fell hormones over heels in love with this 20 year old guy. We met at my first convention but thank god he lived far away. I creepily crushed on him in a very forward way, and he admittedly enjoyed the attention. After that con we didn't meet for about a year, but during that he got a girlfriend and broke up with her. Next big con when we met again all attraction that I had bottled up just fizzled out, and I crushed on another guy within the same weekend. Being a dumb teenager is a rush...

Point is that recently, after four years, he got in contact again.
>Asked if I was going to the big summer con
>Yes I was, with a big group of friends
>"Hey cool, now I have a reason to go"
>Only a little bit creepy, but I'm honestly curious to what has happened to this guy
>Agree to meet up and hang out at con, for good old times
>He's bought a day ticket for Saturday, con closes early on Sunday.
>Didn't pay for sleeping arrangements, plans to stay awake all night
>I'm not amused by these plans
>Us hanging out is me leading him about the con area and eating once
>Asks him if he's checked out the con activities
>"Yeah but nothing interested me that much"
>Point out the he loves TCG's, such as Pokemon
>"The pokemon room only had people lounging about with their DS, cards laying visible though"
>"I didn't ask them if they wanted to play"
>Conclude that this loser has come to the con only to be with me
>Drops creepy shit on me
>"I just got a new phone. When I was copying over my contacts it turns out I only have five friends. You're one of them though."
>"If I could do over my past I'd have gotten together with you instead of my ex."
(In all due respect I asked about his ex and she was a SJW witch)
>"Maybe something nice would've happened between us."
>I go back to my original group of friends
>He awkwardly stalks by from time to time
>Find him at 3am sitting in a corner with his phone

I'm not saying that people can't cosplay what they want or enjoy the same things that I do (my friends and I have similar tastes) but this one friend takes it to the extreme. It's obvious that they would have zero interests in any of these things normally. I can't tell if this is a misplaced attempt to get me romantically interested again or what but it's annoying. I want to say something but it's not even worth it at this point.

it is common behavior for a certain type of person to, after they engage in a behavior they know is wrong, loudly and forcefully proclaim how bad it is when others do it. they think it helps cover their tracks in case their victim goes public, while also driving an extra nail through their victim's heart since it fucks with their head and makes them question their own memories/reality.

Anon with the spoiled girl with dog/lost her car story here.

In my case her parents enabled nearly all her behavior. She even gushed to me at a point how they hated each other but stayed together for her. They even sleep in separate bedrooms. Which okay fine when she's a kid I guess? I don't think it's healthy because in my thinking it just made her believe she's more special than anything else. Also why they didn't separate after she was an adult I'm unsure. Though, I suspect it had to do with how childish she was.
