angst

filed under characterization

In this difficult week, I happened (insert cough) to run across this FAQ page put out by the alt.angst group. Note:
2) alt.angst Protocols and Acceptable Behaviors:

a) alt.angst does not tolerate cheeriness in any form. This includes use of the notorious smiley (which is conspicuously absent here). If you feel inclined to post any stories with a happy ending, post them to alt.good.news, or some other forum -- perhaps alt.romance.chat. You'll be lucky if other members use such kind words to tell you to do the same.

Now I wonder: are there groups called alt.desperation or alt.snideandproudofit or alt.cultureofugly out there? Never mind, I suppose it would be better if I just don't know.
