What is “The Beej” on Huffington Post??
“The Beej” or just plain “Beej” is the most prolific troll in the history of Huffington Post. Longtime users know that Beej has been playing games on Huffington for over 5 years now. Mnay longtime users estimate the number of Beej’s banned, abusive sock puppet accounts to range between 300-500.
An expert from a Huffington Post user’s blog (http://smilingtonpost.blogspot.com/2010/07/beej-must-go-down.html) provide an excellent description of the Beej:
“A quick look at their website the Huff-Watch confirms that Beej takes the Huffingtonpost as more of an obsession than the rest of the other posters put together. It's an experience that starts off as weird and kind of impressive and then the more you look and think about the scale of the effort and the kind of intent as well and impressive turns to scary, creepy and OMFG.
Beej's creepy stalkerish website contains a vast but confused and tangled array of archives and links. There's screenshots of all kinds of things from HP. So while we're over there posting, Beej is sometimes just taking screen shots and uploading them to his vast, vast blog.
So when I look at Huff-Watch I think... what's the point of all that work? What would happen if the Beej ever used that work ethic for something useful?”
See, Beej loves to lurk about Huffington Post like a creepy Peeping Tom hiding in the bushes. He waits on the sidelines, looking for users to pounce upon and release his frustrations with his own shortcomings in life. He follows users about, assaulting them with a barrage of abusive remarks. Apparently, he has an unhealthy obsession with a person named “John”. Beej sees “John” EVERYWHERE on Huffington Post. Should somebody call one of his socks out as being the Beej, he denies it. He denies it like a child with their hand caught in a cookie jar. He develops pitiful excuses, claiming that “Beej” is really a small army of operatives—working for his vast Huff Watch blog empire. Let’s be clear…there is only ONE Beej, and his abusive, trademark insults and moderation circumvention techniques are like fingerprints. Once you see a few Beej comments, there is no mistaking him. Yet, he continues to deny.
What is most amusing about The Beej and the Huff Watch blog is that Beej NEVER shows screenshots of his own abusive handiwork. To do so, would invalidate his obsessive blog. He would rather portray himself as victim. Beej never owns his activities. It is always the fault of liberals. And, the funniest part about Beej is that he whines and howls like a Banshee when Huffington users call him out for his activities.
Quite simply: Beej can dish it, but Beej can’t take it.
This web page will not be dedicated to posting screenshots of Beej’s abusive Huffington Post activity. To do so would be as creepy as The Beej himself. This page is dedicated to the chronicling and tracking Beej user names on Huffington Post so that users can keep themselves safe from the imbalanced Beej.
Coming soon (unlike Beej)
