Non-cows who had a cow phase? - Nobody's perfect.

[polyqueerandrosensual]

Know of any normies or decent people who had a bad case of Mad Cow Disease, but then got over it? Could be famous or personal, but not enough cowery for a post in a cow thread.

I had a friend in high school who went through a phase where she was obsessed with Kurt Bulletbrain Cobain. Bought a copy of his diary (yeah apparently that's a thing), would read it religiously everyday, made her own version to copy it. Swore that her and Kurt were soulmates and he should've been with her instead of Courtney. She was born after he an hero'd. If a Nirvana song came on, you had to blast it as loud as possible and under no circumstances were allowed to change it.

I hung with her a few years later and she was normal af. No mention of Kurt. So I guess it was just an edgy teenage white girl phase.

The amount of threads trying to quantify what a lolcow is and who hypothetically would have been one are starting to get suspect. And now we're trying to put together a "temporary" lolcow definition. I'm even starting to think the people who keep asking about this topic are insecure about something.

Oh, I thought you were talking about internet celebrities who aren't lolcows but have done some cringey shit at some point. If that's the case, then the obvious would be someone like James Rolfe [to whom I'm a fan of] that made that god-awful AVGN movie, but yet isn't a lolcow like Doug Walker, Spoony, et al.

This is how a lot of teen girls act about crushes in general, and then the crushes are forgotten. She just had an intense crush on a famous dead dude. Cringe but not entirely abnormal.

Girl I went to school with was a bit of a lolcow - she used to write fan fiction and sperg about it in class. Had self inserts of herself and the entire school. She'd be dating her crushes in them.

She made a private sex Snapchat despite there being no appeal for it, updated her Facebook about guys she was sleeping with and drugs she was taking. A leaked vid of her giving some old greasy bloke a BJ circulated on WhatsApp.

Was also fat and wore clothing about 3 sizes too small for her.

She's now dropped a lot of weight and graduated uni with a steady job. Has a nice enough looking normie boyfriend. All mentions of her crazy cow antics have been wiped as far as I can tell.

As for celebrities, Tom DeLong seems typical of 90/00s washed up stars but has a mini cow saga going on with his conspiracy theory alien shit.

OP, you had a phase. But you've gotten better, and I'm glad. Stay frosty my friend

Tbh I didn't see those.

everything in the AVGN/TGWTG/ChannelAwesome is/was cringe, but the AVGN movie was actually well made despite it's embarrassing qualities.

I've always considered the "lolcow" is made through how someone reacts to something, James Rolfe has always taken criticism and attention well. Even James Rolfe's retarded nemesis, Chris Bores (who's currently making a living off minecraft puppet videos), isn't really a lolcow in my opinion, just a really embarrassing person.

I had a pal who was a weirdo and often tried to pull the "I have autism I can't help it" card whenever he fucked up and didn't want to admit it. He also attempted to be a dubstep producer back when dubstep was a big deal and used to try to pick up girls using cheesy magic tricks, I think because he idolized the Joker (this was around the time every edgy kid saw the Heath Ledger version and thought "woah that's literally me"). He's fine now.

OP is currently a major cow.

The most well-adjusted high-function person you know becomes a lolcow when they're texting their ex or bf/gf.

 

[Stephanie Bustcakes]

Everyone is a lolcow around 12-15 years old.

Lolcowery is basic human nature. If you admit you've done something wrong, then you have another thing you have to worry about, and your brain doesn't like having another thing on its list.
