Second, I just can't keep up with this account anymore or I'm gonna die suffocating from laughing.
Basically, this started as a dare from a friend of mine. The original goal was to see how fast I could get to 10k pageviews. This happened within a week. And the dream goal was to end up on ED. ....which happened within a month.
In other words, things were much more successful than expected and I decided to keep on going to see how far it could get.
Out of all things, there are several oddities that surprised me quite a bit, and in some cases, made me lose some more faith in humanity....
1. The number of people who thought Joanie was real
2. The number of people who got angered or deeply affected by what ...some random immature unknown freak ...from the INTERNET... could say or do...
3. The ammount of Jesus freaks.
4. All those troll accounts created by some random users trying to impersonate Joanie.
...no i did not create these, surprisingly XD But I still joined their game for the lulz!
5. How people kept harassing and mocking Joanie, accusing her of leaving flames, even though it has been Months and Eternity since my last deviation comment.
6. How even if I intentionally left obvious hints of my fake-ness... people didn't get them.
I hoped I could keep this account going 'till the 100 000th pageview, THEN I'd have posted the original art I've been promising everyone.... but far from cheap 2yrs old MS Paint crap... so I could watch people's reactions. But oh well, too bad.
honestly, I think I'm gonna start worshipping Harry Potter. Y'know, why not? He's just like Jesus: he's a good boy and has magical pawahs!
Finally, I want to thank several people:
My friend, for giving me this awesome dare/bet.
People who knew of my fake-ness, and actually helped me through notes, msn and whatnot, get some more ideas.
Random strangers who posted me on /b/, created troll accounts, and contributed to the ED article. (which has been screencap'd and saved for my personnal useless achievements list)
Everyone who thought I was real and lost some of their life trying to help me out. 8'D
Anyhow that's all for tonight, kids! And remember, don't drink and drive!
PS: Talking in chat speech has got to be the hardest and most brain killing thing I ever did.
EDIT:
I recently got this message from someone who obviously still didn't get the joke at all:
"Look, I wrote feedback.
Okay, not to be rude or anything, but do you think it would be a good idea to get a spellchecker for your internet browser? like when you type "missispi" instead of "Mississippi" a red line would show under the misspelled word then right click it then click the word you actually mean. I'm not a perfect speller to tell you the truth.
I hate to break it to you, but your pictures really do suck, I'm not jealous over your "work" you obviously do suck at art. If you want people to praise you on your work, then go back to school and take an art class.
Wait if your really a 20 year old man, that's bad art for a 20 year old man, I'm 15, and I can draw WAY better then you. In fact, a kindergartner can draw better then you.
As a Pokemon fan, I know that Pokemon are not real. Yeah, reality sucks, I know. but you gotta face It, Pokemon are not real."
I wonder. Should I cry, laugh my heart out, lose faith in humanity, eat a baby...?
UPDATE 7/12:
JEEBUS. A month and a half later, I still get lost people commenting, insulting, wall-of-texting, andyouknowwhatelse, thinking that I'm real. LOL!
