Sad title to a blog post, don’t you think? Sad, but very true. You see, the Twi twitterverse got thrown into a bit of a tizzy this morning when it was some time announced by the head honcho hate mongers site administrators of nonsten.com that they will be closing up shop as of September 1.
Lots of people rejoiced at the news. Others, like we here at BWAN, took a side-eye approach, being always skeptical of the motives of this particular group. Ninnies claim the site is closing because, after two years, site administrators are simply ready to move on. Whatever, the reasons for the closing don’t really matter. The fact they felt a need to open it in the first place does.
Some would like to think that we may have had a bit of a hand in the nonsten admins’ decision to close the doors, but realistically, our egos aren’t big enough to allow us to stretch quite that far. We do know for a fact that we’ve become at least a thorn in many ninnies’ sides, otherwise they wouldn’t keep talking ABOUT, and to, us. (And if you haven’t gathered, they really don’t like us all that much.)
Some in ninniland are under the gross misimpression that because nonsten.com will go away, we at BWAN no longer have anything to talk about. Trust us, we have material for months, if not longer.
Where there is hate, there is always someone out there to counter it. No matter its form, no matter its source, no matter its location.
And sadly, as much as some would like to think that the demise of nonsten.com is the demise of the hate, it simply isn’t true.
You see, people who are so low-minded as to open website forums with the sole intention of making indefensibly vulgar and obtuse comments about a young actress (she was still a minor when they opened, we’ll remind you) simply because she is the object of affection of an actor they choose to admire, will always find a sewer pipe in which to leave their stench on the world.
Like roaches after an apocalypse, the dark holes in which they hide may be smaller, and their numbers may be lessened, but insects of this variety will live on.
It’s a sad fact bound in history.
So keep spewing, ninnies. We’ll still be here to let the world see you for who you really are.

We’ll leave you with a reminder about what Rob himself had to say about people who churn hateful remarks about Kristen (pardon our correction): “That whole system of Internet journalists [sic] ninnies, where no one is called into account, is almost entirely about hate. All these people get away with doing it because they have no responsibility to anyone.”
We at BWAN are sure that Rob, were he to know that HIS fans were actually behind the gutter-worthy sniping at Kristen, regardless of what his relationship to and or with her actually is, would be disgusted by what is going on. Let’s just hope he never finds out.
there's another great quote by rob about the internet hate-i'll have to find it. basically that these sites give nobodies a life, a group to belong to so they begin to feel important.
ReplyDeleteso true!
one other comment re. the oh so wise jellybean. i love how she is so all knowing:
ReplyDeleteshe said: She can't stay some place normal and hang out comfortable, she can't go watch Rob work because she is cooped up in the trailer--she could have totally visited the set when they were doing interiors and no one would be the wiser for her being there. Instead she chooses to go when it's an exterior shoot and when the public is there to document.
May I ask jellybean how she knows whether or not kstew ever visited rob during an interior shoot? she would have no way of knowing. we only know that she was on set Thur because of six photos by one papp - none from her visit on Wed. she was there Monday - Sunday, photographed only on Thur night - how in the world does jellybean know where she went, whether she has been there before and not been seen. she has no idea, but she thinks she does. she is like god. all knowing. she's incredible!!!
