I love hating on Lowtax and Alice of GOMI because they are entitled and spiteful people who love to shit on others but are cows themselves. They also wasted opportunities with their laziness and shitty attitude. I also like following Caroline Calloway and Usagi Kou. Chris chan is a classic too.
> Cows you don't think are cows
None come to mind but I think people are too hard on Pixielocks even though she is a cow. Not sure why her thread is so popular.
> How did you become involved in cow culture?
I've been following cows for a good portion of my life. I used to go to sf_drama on livejournal and was obsessed with CWC for a while.
> Is lolcow your first cow site?
No, I used staminarose shortly before it closed down
> How has cow culture affected you?
This is super embarrassing but in my early twenties I took things said here to heart way too much. I was legit convinced I was ugly based on how people nitpicked here. My advice is you never know what people behind the posts look like.
> Favorite things about cow culture?
I love gossiping about people and finding dirt on them
> Least favorite?
I hate people who nitpick and who need to compare themselves to cows to feel better. If you feel really angry about a cow, you probably need to back off.

Boring sexworkers. Being a sexworker is fairly milky, but they need to be a special type of awful to warrant lolcow status.

When i discovered venus angelic and found pull.
> Is lolcow your first cow site?
I lurked a little on pull, but you know how the culture is down there. The first cow I was enamoured with was some random natural hair youtuber on makeupalley who is long gone.

I can't talk about lolcows with most of my IRL friends because they'd either have no idea what I'm talking about or think I'm a bitch for going on a website to make fun of people. Shoutout to my one IRL friend that also likes to make fun of Chris-chan.

Belle Delphine, Venus, and a lot of the girls in the general threads, which is probably why they don't have they're own threads

> How did you become involved in cow culture?
I was an pretty big cancer crew/ filthy frank fan, and I like talking shit about things I enjoy so I started googling to see if they had drama or discourse and I found a thread about them on /ot/ but eventually they moved it to /snow/ bc they realize anisa was a cow

> Is lolcow your first cow site?
Yeah it was. It's still the only one I really post on. I have social anxiety so the complete anonymity is a comfort

> How has cow culture affected you?
Honestly, it gave me more confidence in line. I don't mean that in a "bullying others makes me feel good" way, but I just showed me how cringy, embassing, and unaware a lot of people online are and I know due to my anxiety I couldn't put so much of myself online like that

> Cows you don't think are cows
most of the ones posted on /snow/ tbh. the standards to being a cow these days are way too low. i think a person needs to have a clear history of medium-severe harm to both themselves and others. scamming, abusing partners, etc. most threads these days focus on people who are annoying at best. i think there are a lot of vendettas against specific people that are unwarranted.
> How did you become involved in cow culture?
i don't even remember lmao. i've surfed gossip forums and sites since i was a wee one. probably got linked to here through one of those.

> How did you become involved in cow culture?
A few years ago I stumbled across a girl on tumblr who posted non stop about her overwhelming and graphic lust for Plankton from Spongebob, and she was my first (personal) lolcow. As far as how I got to this site, one day I saw a youtube commenter with an icon of toad from mario barfing into a container, and I was so morbidly curious about it that did not rest until I had tracked the artist down and found the thread about Nemu.

> Is lolcow your first cow site?
First site in which cows are discussed, yes. But there are so many cows I've followed and laughed at on tumblr.

> Is lolcow your first cow site?
No, see above. I only found the other cow sites after being here.

> How has cow culture affected you?
I also used to take the nitpicking to heart too much at first, over the years it just made me not seriously judge anyone for anything ever. I'll distance myself from people depending on how bad they are sure, but just because I don't want their shit to spill on me. Having a low opinion of others now feels somehow demeaning to me.

I'm not a Venus WK, but watching her thread makes me incredibly uncomfortable. It's like those retarded doujins with a bad ending where main characters get totally degraded. Nicole Dollanganger - I laughed at some comments and her calves, but she's not really milky. Dakota was a cow around 2012, but now she's fucking dry and boring.

My first cow was Winter Rose Nightingale-Nickerson on LJ in 2005, then I got into fandom_wank and lurked on Skinny Gossip for a while.

Luna (so happy for her getting so much love here!), she's my absolute fave. She is relatable and terrifying at the same time. I wish I could find more cows like her, but it seems hard. I also loved Kayla Day/Ginger Bronson (miss her so much) and Nicole Dollanganger. I also like gimpgirl, Lori Lune/Usagi Kou. Used to enjoy CWC and Onion's milk but they went bad long time ago…
> How did you become involved in cow culture?
I found out about onision on tumblr and became fascinated with how such disgusting person can have tons of fangirls. I started following anti-o tumblrs and found out about lolcow thanks to them. In the meantime I was also browsing Kiwifarms for Chis-chan content. I never wanted to participate though.
> Is lolcow your first cow site?
Nope, as mentioned above.
> How has cow culture affected you?
I became less critical of myself and less scared of people's opinions. So many times anons call some cow ugly or fat when I find her cute or pretty (even if she's overweight). Different people can look at the same person and have such different takeaways. I guess it's true that beauty (and ugliness) is in the eye of the beholder!

This is an odd statement but Pixyteri to an extent. I know /pt/ was named after her but compared to the cows that are on they're now(like Grug, TND, Momo), she seems pretty harmless. Oh and Game Grumps aside from Holly. They're annoying but don't really do anything milky.
> How did you become involved in cow culture?
I always followed internet drama since high school but really didn't get involved until a few years back. I randomly found KF when I was looking for one of my old cows (this girl who husbando's was a minor boss from Spyro the Dragon series). And the rest is history.

I think I learned some life lessons from seeing other people fuck up so bad, and learned a bunch of fun facts about illnesses munchies fake etc. Also eased up my anxieties about life.

If /cgl/ still counts as a cow site, no.
> How has cow culture affected you?
In some ways, it has affected me negatively, like seeing girls ripped apart for minor bodily imperfections or weight, and somehow that being justifiable because their personalities are horrifying. I think most of my favorite cows are quite pretty girls, it's their antics that I love to rip into. On the other hand, cow culture has made me realize the depths of virulent narcissism such as Onision's and Margo's, and makes me more wary of people with similar behaviour irl.

I think Venus is a cow, but I feel a lot of sympathy for her because I've known of her since she was a literal child. I had a rough childhood and did some stupid stuff when I was young and I'm grateful it wasn't online.

I'm >>578775 anon, and I do. Snapewives even got an academical analysis after a while.

Speaking of LJ drama, MsScribe got some coverage lately, and the comment section is a goldmine of vintage cow info (I wondered if I should post it in the author cow thread, but didn't want to necro).

> Favorite cows
- No favourite cow in particular, I rotate between active dramas. I'm mostly interested in weeb/cosplay cows as I'm an old /cgl/ migrate.
> Cows you don't think are cows
- Dakota Rose needs to be let go. She hasn't had drama in years and is living a normal life away from her batshit family. The anons in her thread are psychotic with their obsession. And this is coming from someone who used to passionately hate her during her "living doll" phase. Most camgirls/e-thots are boring as well and I strongly feel their threads attract similar girls who are just jealous of their simp armies.
> How did you become involved in cow culture?
- I used to browse Something Awful, 4chan and varying LJ fandom drama communities in the early 00's and a bit later Encyclopedia Dramatica and /cgl/. I've been around almost forever and I was there when the crazy Final Fantasy house story was still current and real-time, I also remember following old classic Deviantart/Livejournal drama like Snapesnogger, Disneyfan01, Usagi Kou (who resurfaced a few years back), Zerodomon and Zeriara.
> Is lolcow your first cow site?
- No, see above. I joined Lolcow shortly after it opened.
> How has cow culture affected you?
- I've become a lot more self-aware about what I post online and how I should handle drama. I also know to pick my battles and that there will always be some seething cunt on a vendetta no matter how picture perfect and boring I manage to keep my image as. As for Lolcow, I learned to love and appreciate my gender a lot more as I could read and write unfiltered female thoughts here for the first time in my life. It also cured me of my desire to be internet famous as I witnessed first hand what a curse it can be.
> Favorite things about cow culture?
- The way it allows a social study tier analysis of human behavior. I'm fascinated by how off the walls people can become under certain circumstances and it's like reading a good story that keeps you on your toes. It also reassures me about how I wasn't crazy for thinking someone's behavior is unacceptable.
> Least favorite?
- Like I already mentioned, anons can become way too personally invested in a cow and become obsessed. I hate the petty nitpicking and obvious vendettas. I hate cowtippers who get a kick out of showing some cow how much some random anonymous people hate them. Most cows are just egoistical and autistic, they don't deserve to have their psyche broken. You can have them learn a lesson to fix their ways but it's just not worth it to ruin someone's life just because they were a bitch online. This of course doesn't apply to Horrorcows who are realistically dangerous like child abusers, scam artists, predators or those zoosadist fucks.

ShoeOnHead. She’s boring and basic. I don’t understand why she’s a cow to farmers when she isn’t entertaining, just her ex armoured fag is lulzy IMO.
Also I used to frequent Luna’s, as of a year ago I’ve stopped because she depresses me too much to read about her. I checked in when that “dads name custom” happened and her thread has remained hidden.

No cow will ever top my milky queen Felice Fawn and her copycats Mila Mortice. I like the Shayna thread but only because of the farmers and their art there, not because she's milky.

> Cows you don't think are cows
Luna because she's not milky, her thread is just screenshots of her posting sanrio stuff. PnP has gotten boring and repetitive. That Myah Alana girl too, shes just a boring egocentrical teenager, nothing different from most cali girls.

Every now and again anons will post about missing old cows and I think the collective nostalgia for train-wrecks like Crying Emily, Felice, EW and Emilyologist etc is always nice to see.

> Least favorite?
Farmers projecting onto cows, blogs, mini-modding, how quickly farmers take the bait when a cow or their friends post in their thread.

No. ED to Kiwifarms, then PULL, then Lolcow.farm

> How has cow culture affected you?
Made me more aware of how to act online, the importance of privacy and locking down sites where you want to vent. Also made me realize that starting fights with online people is a quick way to be a cow yourself.

> Favorite things about cow culture?
Cringe, and telling other people about cows. My best friend and I trade cow stories and love following cows together.

> Least favorite?
tbh sometimes the milk runs dry and people nitpick…when a cow is getting better, let them, stop nitpicking and stop trying to find things to keep them in the thread or to keep the thread moving.

Anyone from an obscure community, Nemu was a trip. Also Luna.
> Cows you don't think are cows
They all have their cow traits but I'm very disinterested in the insta/SW type cows.
> How did you become involved in cow culture?
I've had personal cows ever since I was a kid, and then I found cow sites when I was a teen while I was looking into my personal cows.
> Is lolcow your first cow site?
No
> How has cow culture affected you?
Made me more aware of certain behaviors in other people, but I don't think it has too much

I don't get why people are so petty towards cows that aren't really that evil. What's with the personal attachment so strong that you need to write a hateful paragraph of nothing but nitpicks

> Cows you don't think are cows
Couldn’t tell ya

> How did you become involved in cow culture?
I’ve been aware of certain cows for a while but I came here a few years ago after googling an old tumblr mutual and finding her threads (Shay)

> Is lolcow your first cow site?
It’s not my first gossip site I guess? I used to browse stickydrama and ed

> How has cow culture affected you?
It’s given me advice on how not to be. This particular website has made me more cynical towards social media culture, men, and troons.

> Favorite things about cow culture?
The humor. It can be mean spirited, but lurking the site is how I exorcise my ‘nasty’ side. I also like the strong rad fem vibes and posting on /g/ and /ot/

> Least favorite?
The general negativity, obsessive nitpicking and a lot hypocrisy coming from farmers who claim to be feminists

I don't think anyone really considers Angela a cow. Very occasionally she gets tangentially involved in drama but anons don't seem to have any actual problem with her. I love her tbh, she's so pretty and charismatic.

I got caught up in Venus Angelic when she fled kappa Margo. Other than that, Holly Brown but she's more /snow/? I follow deathfats but that's more exclusive to KF. I wish I was around for peak Pixyteri.
> Cows you don't think are cows
I don't know, I don't follow the main cow board anymore though.
> How did you become involved in cow culture?
4chan, to CWCki/KF, but I liked lolcow's "ladies' 4chan" vibe.
> Is lolcow your first cow site?
No
> How has cow culture affected you?
I have a small social media footprint. I actually really desire growing an audience but I fear karmic cowdom.
> Favorite things about cow culture?
People are weird.
> Least favorite?
The saltiness and nitpicking. I mean, I browse the art salt thread but I have to come up for air sometimes.

Taylor N Dean!! I’m so sad she disappeared
> Cows you don't think are cows
None, but there’s a few I feel almost bad for because I think they’re legitimately mentally disturbed, eg Shayna and Luna
> How did you become involved in cow culture?
Someone I used to know of irl has has a popular thread on here, thought it was the funniest thing ever when I found it because she was a ‘personal cow’ of mine for years
> Is lolcow your first cow site?
Yes
> How has cow culture affected you?
Doesn’t really affect me. I keep it secret from people irl. My boyfriend thinks it’s dumb and waste of time, he really judges me for it.
> Favorite things about cow culture?
I still can’t get over finding the girl I used to vaguely knows thread, that’s something that will always make my day. I guess when I get updates on cows that make me laugh out loud it makes my day.
> Least favorite?
Sometimes I start to feel bad with certain cows I think are really mentally ill, but it’s like a train wreck I can’t look away from or stop laughing at.
