Hey everyone,
I used to be padthai on GuruGossiper. I remember HeyCheri from way back in her LiveJournal days when she was loliminx, then heycheri, goddesscheri / princesscheri. There's more accounts that were shared on GG, but I feel embarrassed to have retained this much memory of her discovered and possibly now deleted usernames. Doesn't LJ seem so long ago now?
When I think back on Cheri's history from then until now, I am actually quite amazed at all the phases she's been through and some of the cringe moments that she documented on her blog or on Twitter. These moments were sometimes out of pure ignorance or out of seeking attention.
Some things that come to mind when I think of HeyCheri:
* People created entire LiveJournal accounts dedicated to exposing her activities.
* Dropping out of her math class at her local community college but writing a blog post fantasizing about her professor scolding her.
* The young girl from Singapore that she befriended and sometimes would be on stream with her.
* Her photography phase and posting a client's unedited nudes when she failed to pay.
* The whole dominatrix thing and posting her slaves Social Security numbers.
* Her stint with Ubisoft's Frag Doll Cadette program. I'm curious what she actually did during that time period?
* Trying hard to get R*ch from IGN to simp for her after her Zelda artwork was posted on their forums.
* HeyCheri and the Nestle booth at Pride. She later shared that Nestle asked her to take the post down. R*ch was there.
* Blogging about wearing a tiara and holding a wand at a game industry networking party, yelling duck you to all the attendees while driving off into the sunset in her friends convertible, then blogging about it afterwards. She deleted a bunch of people afterwards. It was fascinating because other people blogged about that night, IIRC.
* Remember her phase with P*trick Rothfuss? She was really into Name of the Wind and even invited him to hang out after a book signing in SF. He did it! He hung out with her and her friends afterwards. That is crazy to me, but whatever.
* On Twitter, she took videos of water in a pot and kept asking her followers to help her identify when it was boiling. No, girl, it's just simmering. Yes, big bubbles are boiling. Isn't this something a person can Google?
* Motorcycle phase, never saw her on a moving bike.
* Can she drive yet? She kept talking about her dream cars at one point.
I used asterisks to protect the identity of the innocent. I don't know that they want anything to do with her and I would feel bad if this showed up on a search for them.
Anyone else got any memorable highlights from the LJ and GuruGossip eras?
