<April Winchell


At first glance, April is an ED wet dream. Do not be fooled. April Winchell is a coward. For someone whose internet celebrity relies fully on making fun of others, you'd think she could handle a little friendly ribbing.

You've heard of a site called Regretsy. It's a site for great justice. Someone needed to show the people of Etsy the truth about the real world. And the truth is, we don't care about your shit. (Oh yeah, that's EXACTLY what Regretsy is saying, and that's why any money generated by the site at all goes back to helping Etsy sellers in need. Unless she wants to go on vacation, or someone questions where the money is going, then she throws a shit fit.)

April jumped at the chance and launched Regretsy last thursday. April also spear headed the etsy team April's Army, which thru donations from team members raised money each month for a charity case person. After two months in a row receiving questions from members regarding the correctness of her choice. April flounced and threatened to close the charity shop as well as close down the team. Then when she was called out publicly about it, she claimed they were making changes to the team due to disagreement. Do not disagree with Queen April or she will close down her charity.


At first, everything was great and much lols were had. Then she called all people from Boston "Crab Hammering Puritanical Dick Bags" (Nevermind. That's still pretty lol.) Her next foray into offending the drooling masses was her unending use of the word "retard".

retard retard retard

People were outraged.

People start unliking her Facebook page. April tantrums like a little girl. To counter, April throws their exit speeches up in her flounce album. And here is where the trick bitchery starts. You see, it's all well and good for April to steal peoples' pics for all the world to laugh at. (And it is.) But don't you DARE take one of hers.

"DO NOT PIC YOUR ASS!"

She will run to the ends of the earth to make you hide that shit.

—April Winchell to LJAbuse

After receiving word of this article, April hastily sent a PM through livejournal's message system.

   
“ 		 
I would like to explain to you why I asked LiveJournal to remove the photo.

I took the photo off Facebook for a reason. It made people angry and hurt them. I may make snotty jokes about handcrafts, but it is never my intention to truly wound someone.

I filed the DMCA notice because this is serious to me. Maybe I should have just written to you in the first place, I don't know. I apologize if I handled this badly.

But please, stop posting it. It doesn't serve anyone. It doesn't open a dialogue, it doesn't educate anyone, and it doesn't make things better for the LGBT community. Just upsetting people isn't the same as activism.

Please, take down the Encyclopedia Dramatica entry. I have had a lifetime of fundraising and activism on behalf of my LGBT friends and family members, and I'm heartbroken to be portrayed as an enemy of that community.

I don't mind if people don't think my work is funny or don't like what I do. I understand that I'm not always going to hit it out of the park with everyone, and I accept that. I fail a lot at what I do. But this is not about that. This is about my trying to right a wrong, and I am humbly asking that you permit me to do so.

Respectfully,

April Winchell
