Does Anyone Remember Winter Rose?

[baldricks_turnip]

Did anyone here follow the saga of Winter Rose Nightingale Nickerson? I believe it all started on the Fametracker boards and continued in offshoot forums. Rose was an interesting character. She lived her life like a Mary Sue, constantly exaggerating any talent or personal attribute, begging for trinkets, and posting photoshopped pictures to make herself appear younger and prettier. Her Encyclopedia Dramatica page sums her up fairly well. People became very interested in her and did lots of detective work, disproving many of the things she claimed about herself (age, name, background) and finding that she'd seduced her husband when he was about 17/18 and she was 28/29 (she had even changed her husband's name from Robert to Tristan and he willingly went with it). The interest in her widened to include her ren faire friends- Threehead (very low hairline girl), Pickle (girl who vowed to be a virgin until marriage but posted photos of her practising fellatio on a pickle, IIRC), and Shelftits (buxom girl who abused corsets).

Along with Emily Under1000, these are the internet folks I think of from time to time.

She sounds...eccentric...and creepy.  Very creepy.
