ButthurtFrom WhatPort80Butthurt is that special feeling in your butt after you've soundly had it handed to you. It is a common ailment amongst losers, trolls, an heroes and other hyper emotional people when they feel they ought to be outraged over trivial matters. It is usually characterized by noisy whining and complaining after being pwnt or otherwise outdone in any minute and insignificant way. It was invented at least 100 years ago by Vlad the Impaler when he went crazy from living in a time without teh internets. Today, butthurt occurs most commonly when you fall asleep with your friends and they, being your friends, decide it would be funny to do unmentionable, humiliating things to you. Butthurt is also a primary generator of lulz on the internets and has produced many lolcows. The Six Stages of ButthurtIf you or anyone you know have recently discovered that you have an article on Encyclopedia Dramatica, saying mean things about your mom, then these are the stages that you will soon be dealing with.
You try to pretend that you don't care about the article,even thanking ED for all the views that it's been giving your art pages on DeviantArt. Pshaw! Show your fans that you're better than that. Note: During this time you will have inflated ego, and an urge to write a poem to ED giving thanks to them. Luckily this is the shortest stage of all and will likely last a week at most.
Forget being nice. ED hasn't deleted that article yet after a whole five minutes and it's time to bring out your inner German kid, and see how those rapscallions like that! This of course will only bring out more lulz. You will no doubt send your fans to edit the page, bringing down even more lulz. To show them who's the bees knees, make a youtube video of you and your little brother rapping about how much EDiots smell.
Start saying on livejournal that your mood is sad. Make big rants about how your life sucks and how noone likes you. Contrary to popular belief, ED will only edit the pictures of you looking sad to make it look like mudkips are on your face. Bonus points if you mention you are bipolar and hear voices.
Why be mad when you can be a martyr? You will begin saying you forgive ED because it's what Jesus would do. This is similar to stage one, except you add in that everyone on ED will burn in hell anyway so it doesn't matter.
Trolling with ButthurtCalling people butthurt is also a way for uncreative internet tough guys to generate lulz without putting any effort into their work. The idea is simple: The second anyone reveals that they care about something, simply generate a post accusing that person of butthurt. If you plan on making that post longer than one word, then throw in terms such as Bawwwww and then reuse them endlessly in order to troll the subject into submission. Use these words over and over in each subsequent post and never let go.
