I Rule
San Francisco Gate
"Pundits as far-flung as Roger Ebert have claimed that the Internet is inherently a women's world -- something about the flow of a woman's Venusian, nonlinear language being perfectly suited to the irrational flux of cyberspace -- but they were probably thinking of the chat rooms on Oxygen or Women.com when they said this."

But the Goads have been beautifully succeeded by a New Jersey 19-year-old. Sitting firmly at the helm of hating humankind is The Misanthropic Bitch, a site booted from its previous ISP because its webmistress rages about the touchiest of topics -- race, Princess Di, and rampant reproduction.
She gleefully invites visitors to email their comments, promising to lambaste them. True to her word, MB adeptly blasts each respondent out of the water as you lurk trembling (or smiling) from a safe distance. Her witty, sardonic cracks at the human race flow so effortlessly there's no time to blink.
(examples from the Stupid People Page)
There's tons of material here -- enough reading for a long, long afternoon. And there's always new fodder as more individuals try to make sense of what's saying in, of course, the most simplistic ways possible. People write her off as "young," spoiled," "stupid," etc. That may allow those emailing to feel better about their inability to understand her more lucid arguments, but the Misanthropic Bitch falls under none of these handy labels. If you can accept that, then the Misanthropic Bitch awaits.

There's plenty of teen angst in blogland (my site is not a "blog," but hey, publicity is publicity) and plenty of lame humour as well, but the best of the genre are amusing, highly opinionated and strangely addictive. My favourite so far is The Misanthropic Bitch whose freewheeling riffs bad-mouthing anything and anybody on which her venomous eye alights make compelling reading. Take this exchange between MB and her aunt on hearing what the aunt has just named her firstborn.
MB: Oh, God, Riley is so trashy. Why don't you just hand her over to the porn industry to raise?
Aunt: That's a really rotten thing to say. Besides, we're spelling it R-Y-L-E-E. That makes it classier.
MB: Oh, sure, if the class you're trying to rise above thinks a double-wide trailer is luxurious.
Hey, it made me smile, but then I've always been a sucker for well-turned sarcasm.

Home of the Misanthropic Bitch! Brilliant, evil bastard stepchild of the sharp-tongued Dr. Laura Schlessinger, this New Jersey mystery chick keeps the door open and the business down on her site. She is a self-proclaimed misanthropy recycler who writes on every hot topic, though her favorites seem to be women- and child-related problems--that is, child beauty pageants, child porn, child-bearing, public breast feeding, along with domestic violence. A telling quote culled from her brief biography: "Nothing can make one a misogynist faster than being born a woman."
Netsurfer Digest
Ah yes, the misanthropic bitch. No, it's okay, she's self-titled and exaggerating a bit. It's difficult to argue with most of the short (and well researched) essays here because she woos you with her snappy chat peppered with quotable wit. Bad Baby Names was the noodle in the soup, spawned from a conversation with a family member over naming a child Taylor Jade - to which her reply was, "If you want your daughter to augment her breasts and slurp semen in lieu of water, stick with that name." One memorable observation is that there's a correlation between the number of superfluous Y's in a name and the laws they break later in life. If you ever run out of opinions, on anything from JFK Jr. to child beauty pageants to housewives to clean houses as the sign of a wasted life, come here to stock up.
Being Mis -- USA Today Hot Site
The
misanthropic bitch site is, well, very misanthropic. Here's an
understatement: "If you take life too seriously and are unable to see the
humor in our species, you may be unable to appreciate this site." Fair
warning.
GQ
THE MISANTHROPIC BITCH is a rare
website. While large portions of the Web wallow in misguided political
correctness and other worrying symptoms of self-censorship, Missy here
really lets rip with 'oh-my-gosh' diatribes about every sensitive topic
under the sun. Rants include such inflammatories as stupid sexual
harassment cases, alleged date rapes (too drunk to remember), Princess Di
(sharp intake of breath), the Arab-Israeli thing, AIDS, the death penalty,
racism and the fact that she really likes the police. Missy's approach is
unflinchingly the most direct and shocking (inevitably leading to massive
breaches of good taste), but to dismiss the page as some sort of fascist
cyber-rag would be a mistake. For one, underneath the sheer gratuitousness
of it all, there are reasoned and consistent arguments. And for two,
she'll rip you to shreds in the ever-expanding 'Stupid People' section,
which isn't at all pretty. Oprah Winfrey would have a fit and
die.
The Village Voice Down on Di
Just when you thought you couldn't take another gushing word about the
princess, there was Madonna all sad and sappy at the MTV awards, moaning
about curbing the paparazzi. Time's ripe for backlash, you say? Not yet.
Surprisingly, the Di outpouring on the normally indie-spirited Net has
been largely-almost entirely-of Madonna's variety. In fact, a search for
the terms hate and Princess Diana turned up only one site: Misanthropic
Bitch, created by a 19-year-old college student. ''Last time
I checked,'' her rant begins, ''we kicked the British out of the United
States over two-hundred years ago.'' And later: ''I do not get it. If
Princess Diana was your average nobody, people would regard her as a
pathetic slut. 'Next on Ricki Lake . . . Diana . . . a woman who married
for wealth and status . . . was involved in extra-marital affairs . . .
attempted suicide . . . had eating disorders . . . and dated a playboy!'

Teresa: Cyberspace's Patron Saint? September 8, 1997
Blah, blah, blah.... Others, like Misanthropic Bitch, were ready with
snide remarks about the two deaths. "How could that ungrateful Mother
Teresa die when the world is getting ready to bury Diana?" the 19-year-old
webmistress wrote. "She's taking away Di's thunder!"
