They were the salt and pepper goddesses of the interwebs.
OK, so the posts were hardly Ayn Rand...and the stories weren't exactly the adventures of Marco Polo or Aladdin...but who cared ?? Just the thought of these two scorching hornbags tearing around Sydney with their ultra-fabulous friends was enough to have us all wishing we could be them for a day.
And what a tease 'Steph' was too...she'd spice up her posts with a few photos...always careful to blackout the eyes or cut off the heads to protect her privacy and the privacy of her uberhot friends; or as she called them The Supertards.
I always felt sorry for the average 'MAAS' reader because they never got to see the real 'Steph', covered as she was in her giant sunnies, or eyes blacked out...coz boy oh boy was she ever ridiculously good-looking. Luckily, I had become very close friends with her off-blog. We e-mailed regularly...and sometimes, when I'd go in to bat for her on her blog after a hater had taken a cheap shot, she'd blubber her thanks in private and reward me with an uncensored photo of her...or her and Kylie...which I would instantly print out and paper my entire bedroom wall with
Anyway, I think enough time has passed since 'MAAS' went extinct...and I know many of you were huge, huge fans of 'Steph'...so I have decided to release my private collection of photos for your masturbatory pleasure...
Here's one of my favourites. Classic 'Steph' really...and look she's even giving me 'the finger'...coz you know...I'm Fingers.
Or what about this one ?? Brunette 'Steph' with her adorable little doggie 'Lulubelle'...proving that she didn't always have to be blonde to look gorgeous.
And here they are together again. The Captain and Vice-Captain of the All Star Supertards; OMG who wouldn't want to slather themselves in peanut butter oil and slide up and down bewteen these two mega-foxes ??
Let me save you the trouble of fantasizing about that; here's what it actually looks like to get down and dirty with 'Steph' and her A-list party-stoppers. I think this was taken at 'Steph's' last birthday...a champagne-fuelled pillow-wrestle at some top secret nightclub that we mortals can only dream about.So, hands up everyone who thinks these photos are the nicest present I've ever given my readers here on TWG ?? Hmmm...just counting those hands...that's ONE...thanks Memphis Steve.
Now, hands up those who think I've committed an act of unspeakable cuntery and violated the trust of one of blogging's 'Untouchables'. Hmmm...OK that's a lot of hands. In fact I'd say everyone has their hand up except Memphis Steve.
No, wait...he's got his hand up too; nothing like having an each way bet when it comes to not pissing 'Steph' off.
OK, let's cut to the chase here, shall we.
Firstly, at the conclusion of this post I will be flying off to Stockholm to accept the Nobel Prize for Stupidity.
Secondly, if anyone knows where Memphis Steve actually lives, could you please go round there and hide all the rope, remove all the knives, unplug the toaster and stay with him for a while.
And lastly, I'd like everyone to take a peek at this link; this one here...
http://www.flickr.com/photos/staci_e_cole/
Recognize anyone you know ??
Hey look, it's 'Steph'...
There's blonde 'Steph' and brunette 'Steph'...'Steph' and her Mum...'Steph' and the luckiest dolphin in the whole wide world...they're all there; it's basically a 'Steph Wonderworld'.
Check out page 2...why it's 'Steph and Kylie'...frolicking at the beach party...glamming it up at the local club...and everyone's all-time fave 'Nurse Steph and Nurse Kylie'...
OK, who's got a really big case of the 'what the fucks' ??
Try page 3 then...
Ooooooooh, it's 'Bollinger Steph' and 'Kristal Kylie' chugging bottles of French champagne on their PR salaries as though the world could end at any moment.
OK, anyone whose penny still hasn't dropped...I want you to go and Google 'Staci Cole' !!!
I'll wait here while you do it...
Now...say it with me...OMG...ZOMG...ZOMFG...
More to come on this breaking news story...oh and seriously can someone please go round and check on Memphis for me...

I salute you, and you didnt even give me credit, your a good boy xx
This revelation has shattered my faith in Steph's post about loosing her lime-green high-heel in the CBD...
"sigh" another disappointment. Still silver lining time: it got a post out of fingers and kitty....(Yes I know I'm slack too)
As most of my sexlife happens in my imahination my comment is: meeeh
In reality i'm really cool. This dyslexicdork thing is just an act.

Style Seduction- I'd like to see you try !
And I don't believe for ONE nanosecond you got duped out of $1,000 in jewellery.
No one gives a fuck what you think Uber, I know the truth and I still have the messages she sent me. I even have the address which I sent the jewellery too. Once she received it she blocks me on facebook, I should have known instantly.
I should get the cops involved but that low life will probably be feeling guilty enough now she got caught out. Identity Theft is no laughing matter.
Kitty- Ditto so no further response required from me nor you.
Style- As you are obviously moronic ESPECIALLY if your bogus claims of being taken for $1,000 of jewellery on the net WERE true, I shall explain some things you are clearly unaware of.
Steph has NOT committed 'identity theft' even is these unproven allegations are true that she lifted soem woman's pics offline and represented as her.
Do you have irrefutable evidence that she has applied for identification in someone elses' name? Do you know for certain the name she claims as hers,isn't? Do you know for a FACT she uses someone elses name to gain credit, work under etc?
No, you do NOT. And THAT is what she would have had to be doing to be considered a thief of someones' identity in the eyes of the law. Which makes YOU ,aside from a moron who wants to jump on the bandwagon with your suspect allegations, a nasty little libeller.
Any anyone who comes here,like you or Kitty, orgasming over one hell of a geenrous and talented blogger's public raping,show yourselves for the insecure, venal harridans that you are.
I am not going to comment on this sorry orgy any further here save to say this to you Fingers: she was a truer and more loyal friend to you-hot or not- who surpassed the loyalties of at least one friend of yours you think you can count on.
And you are ruining her legacy and years worth of work,for what?
Every two bit slut or rejected guy is going to come in here now and perpetuate all sorts of lies, for their own 5 minutes of made up I -have-a -bigger-story/injury-about-Steph-glory,against someone who doesn't deserve to be remembered this way,but only for her superior writing, talent, and generosity as a blogger and friend.
Uber = steph for sure.
We dont know what she has done.... or if anything she wrote was true, because she used images of a girl partying in cali and st tropez as her own saying she was partying in sydney.... so how do the stories that came with these images add up..... they dont....
No wonder she had so many haters in her blogging days, people must have figured it out long ago....
Steph got PWNED
Oh Bollocks! Well it was fun while it lasted!
For the record, I never pretended to be Staci Cole, I sent out her pic, for a LAUGH to a few guys who asked for pics or to shit stir , the headless ones on the blog were just for decoration, then a friend of mine joined in, not the Kylie in the pics though, and yeah, well it kinda got out of hand. Soz bout that but Staci Cole is the stuff of internet LEGEND, She’s the most cloned head on the web FFS! It was a JOKE, But it did snowball. Surprised it took you so long Fingers. Sorry you jizzed over it.
The Facebook page was a dare, I had to get 500 friends, so enlisting the help of a few REAL ones, we set it up and had some fun. The only trouble was, I had formed quasi relationships with a few people and the guilt started to knaw at me. Particularly over you Arna, however, you and I both KNOW I didn’t steal from you, you insisted on sending me some of your designs and business cards to get your name out there, I never asked for anything! and I did exactly what you asked me to. I gave some pieces to some friends who wore them to events and we did hand out your business cards and postcards.But yeah, feel a bit shitty about that Will definitely send you back what I have and chase up the rest.
Apart from that, I haven’t taken a damn thing from anyone, and lets face it, I could have fleeced some drooling fools for Squillions if I wanted to, and all those other saps that wanted to pay me for my worn shoes/undies! I could have sold my snot at one point and retired happily!!
As for being fake. Whateverrrrrr! The whole fucking web is fake! If you believe every word on every blog you read then you're crackers. I embellished a few of my stories on the blog, but who doesn’t? And anyway they were mostly true, and I’m not apologising for that. I really don’t feel bad about the blog. The blog was shits and giggles all the way, there were one or two posts I was genuinely proud of, and for the most part it was TRUE. Yes, a bit was embellished, but there was a lot of ME in there too, all my interactions with the people I came across via the blog were genuine, with the exception of looking like a Barbie doll. So calm the fuck down!
I am a hypocrite though for getting upset with another blogger who told a porky pie, the faked death girl, but it was that which made me go “hang on you nutter, you’re doing the same thing”. That’s why I shut up shop, the blog had taken on a life of it’s own, and the persona wasn’t fun anymore.
Sorry bout that.
To those who feel mortally wounded at the revelation, I apologise.
As for who I am and what I look like- I look like who ever you want me to, and I’m just another twat tapping out crap on the intarwebs.
Gotta admit though, Stace has a fine rack.
I’ve closed the blog for now, but I’ll be back I've got some revelations on the sphere of my own to reveal. I might use a pic of Jen Aniston next time though, she’s more REAL looking, or maybe I’ll become a guy! Ha! Kevin indeed.
To the ones spitting venom and bleating like I raped their mum and belted their granny, Gees get a grip will ya! Nobody fucking DIED. We can all still have cyber if you want! Srsly.
And uber, wtf? lol.
And what have we learned from this revelation?
That Fingers really is an utter cunt. You're merely living up to your reputation.
Check the worry in my eyes.........Steph, or the 'character' of Steph was a blinding blog to read.
For the first time ever on the internet I am completely at a loss for words.
'And uber, wtf? lol.'
You're not the only onje with a big mouth who stands up to an injustice,and this si what this little expose and free for all was.
I am glad you came in and defended your position,reminding everyone what blogging IS about. The read!
And people need to realize that regardless of whose pic she used[ for the record IT WAS MINE! lol] everything else about her was real.
And as for this sting.....BRILLIANT!!Especially in how long she was abloe to pull it off. And if anyone feels hurt that she is not a babe you deserve it you shallow fuckers, ESPECIALLY, YOU , FINGERS. hahahaha
What- her frigging blog on it's own merits wasn't enough? She had to be gorgeous as well?
Fingers: babe...I leave for a fucking dinner party and then get some well needed sleep and what do I find when I wake and go on line to the whine guide? The world turned upside down...that's what.
And I'm having quite a laugh too. Kylie and Steph not real?
BULL SHIT!!! They're real. The shit they wrote was fucking great stuff. I was never entertained so wonderfully and it didn't cost me a copper penny.
Like yeah I lusted after Kylie...one of the best orgasms I gave myself. Ahem...thanks. And steph...found me. She was one of the reasons I started blogging in ernest. I thank her for that. and yeah she was upset with me aways back and took me out of her blogroll...it was no biggy. I can be annoying at times.
So what do I get out of this? Damn I wish Steph and kylie were back...in whatever face or name they choose.
But why should you care what I think...I don't even care what I think. Um...I'm annoying myself so...I must leave and take myself off of my blogroll thingy.
Ciao fingers babe...
PS steph and kylie...I still love you girls. xxx
"It was a bit of FUN, get the fuck over it."
Fun would imply that people are enjoying themselves, and not getting hurt.
I guess as long as it isn't you, or 'Steph', who's being led on, it's Ok.
Steph..
YOU ROCK
Surprised it took you so long Fingers. Sorry you jizzed over it.
lol!!! Actually I think Memphis Steve is the one with egg all over his face
fingers abbe: you know what this reminds me of...Breakfast Club.
um...oh hey, I have to go to lunch now. I'm having a Captain Crunch cereal sandwich...sugar free pixie sticks and a Diet Coke. Yum...Oh and tons and tons of vodka.
ciao honey. xx
Kylie still cracks me the hell up.
What Steph looks like is irrelevant to me.
I enjoyed reading her blog from the first time I clicked her link and I don't regret a second of it. What else did I have to do, work? HA.
Seriously Steph, I hope you have a happy and fulfilling life and I am glad you cared enough to read me before my blog-suicide.
Thanks for all the laughs.
Chuck
oh...it's chuck...
Hi chuck, do you remember the way we were? :)
xx
@Spiky - I still check your blog everyday and read you. You are brilliant and funny and oh-so-sexy.
I don't comment on anyone's blog as I'm in the middle of some deep shit, ya know.
But just because I don't comment, doesn't mean I don't think about all the KHAIAG!!
Love ya!
"As for being fake. Whateverrrrrr!"
If they had a contest where you had to summarise Gen-Y in 5 words, that would win.
Oh Ute, she didn't'hurt'anybody.Do we all now suffer PTSD because she used some tartlet's pic instead of her own? Christ, it's not like she was jeopardising people by giving them financial/medical advice.
I personally think this is hysterical on the level of Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid and a most befitting ending to a self confessed 'vapid, attention- seeking, fame whore' who has created the biggest scandal/caper in the sphere and cloaked herself in one hell of a mystery as her grand finale.
The girl is a fucking genius in marketing, promotion and drama.
Actually, truth be told, I did ask her for some financial advice recently. But that is neither here nor there. Unless you rent in Sydney, in which case she may be your landlord.
Zoinks!
She would have gotten away with it too if it weren't for those meddling kids!
"all my interactions with the people I came across via the blog were genuine"
That is what I really wanted to know, more than anything else.
And what is with all the deleted comments from Kitty? And why did Kitty go and close up her blog like Steph did? And why did Steph close her blog even? It's still a masterpiece of a blog, whatever the truth is.
Shit, what a day!
Oh Stephen, her biggest assets were her personality and creativity, not her frigging picture,anyway.And that hasn't changed.
Can't everybody just enjoy the cosmic joke? We're not all bloody 6 ,finding out Santa doesn't exist.
She's still Steph.
Sorry, Steph's explanations are delusional. If you're not considering the strong possibility that Steph is in fact male and gay, you're not looking hard enough. Whoever or whatever Steph was does have some standards, but they are unusual ones, and not worth a pinch of shit in the end.
If the Internets were restricted to real people who weren't crackers there would be like 5 of us.
The funny thing from my perspective is that somewhere out there there is a chick was sunbathing topless at Balmoral beach who's head is probably still spinning from the odd conversation she had with weird bloke who bizarrely struck up a random conversation about Australian blog culture.
Who knows - perhaps I was chatting up Miss Cole.
Who ever you are Miss Steph I salute you - you had my hormones on a string and played my lust like a puppet. Too funny.
Well played.
Now... about that full frontal nude I sent you....
oo this is all a bit chk chk boom isn't it.
i never liked her blog so i don't know much about it but i am curious as to how you worked it out?
uberbabe: What do you mean...there's no Santa!!!
fingers babe...make her talk it back. there has to be a Santa. Then who drank the milk and ate the cookies I left out last Christmas Eve night???
Now I'm upset.
*falls to my knees (ouch) whilst shaking my fist at the heavens. Which is really just the ceiling in my office.
"DAMN YOU INTERNET!!!! Damn you!"
*cut...print*
Thank you darling...thank you.

Canis-Great point. I think we should petition Blogger to demand, as a prerequisite for opening a blog , a psychological clean bill of health, proof af age, gender and hotness[income and penis size for men] as well as current STD test results for every potential blogger so we can weed out any misrepresentions and sex diseases in our VIRTUAL REALITY.
By the way, I am not really a cartoon and rarely wear a crown lest I traumatize someone withmy false misrepresentation.
Spiky- I ate the cookies. Who did you think it was? Oh, 'Santa'.
How can "all my interactions with the people I came across via the blog [be] genuine", when she, probably a he, was lying?
Kylie also was probably an alter-ego of his. Nothing "Steph" or Kylie writes, before or now, can be trusted. Reality means nothing to him/her/them. It's just a game for amusement, with self-made rules, which are obviously offensive, except to deluded bloggers who play similar type of dishonest games.
Is there anything on the net more deluded than blogging?
I was never a Steph follower, so my views on this "scandal" are purely observational.
If your blog is called "Total Rubbish I Made Up", I think you have poetic licence and your readers will be entertained and absorbed by your stories, knowing but not caring they are fantasy.
If you fabricate stories with the pretense that they're true, tease your readers with horny pictures they think are you (but are not), etc. then you're even sadder than the poor e-miliated followers who believed you.
I don't buy Uber's argument that because it's on the internet that you should know it's all bullshit. Why should that be? If I ever choose blogging as my literary outlet, I will tell true stories and express my own actual opinions, unless I call my blog "Bullshit By Bammers" and then you can guess some of it will be "embellished".
I know all the stuff Fingers writes actually happened, and the opinions expressed are very much his own. Certain events in his life, as it turns out, are interesting enough to read.
Long live The Whine Guide!
Yes, look, at the risk of being taken out and shot, I have to agree with BamBamBam. There's a big difference between writing and presenting it as fiction...compared to "these are pics of me. this is the real me". so these ideas of "it's the net, no one is real" or "well played!" are a bit lost on me too. but like i said, i never liked her blog so i've got no investment here.
*ducking for cover*
Steph, to you it may all have been a little fun, but you simply cant deny the fact that you created the illusion because you wanted people to think you were her. It wasnt just creative blogging decorated, you formed whole blog posts around images and created a persona that now no one can ever know was really you.
You know you took things too far when certain people were ready to leave their families for you, why didnt you own up then, and realise how this was affecting others. Or are you just a heartless cold cunt out to make a few dozen people laugh on the net.
As for the facebook page, was Kylie dared too? Bullshit you were dared, it was just an extension of you wanting to be seen as this glamour babe and Kylie is just another person you created to back it all up.
As for the jewellery, you should never have accepted it, not at least without mentioning you werent who you really said you were. I have had great success sending my jewellery to bloggers and minor celebrities Australia wide who have all promoted my pieces, I gave you that opportunity based on who I thought you were and the type of life I thought you lived, but how can you say you are that person when everything you have ever written is now in question. YOU KNEW I based my assumptions on your blog, and now you are saying its all just fun, embellished blah blah.
Well I am the stupid one in this case, I should have known better. And just for the record, it was me who outed you, I thought it was pretty suss after you give me your addy to send you jewellery then block me from facebook. Nice work there. Fingers was just the messenger as I dont blog here anymore.
You are just a sad little girl hiding behind pictures of the hottest girl on the net, to feel better about yourself, and all the adoring fans you had, never actually liked YOU they liked the persona you created.
Who cares what the real Steph looks like. Do we really need to know.
I doubt that much of her blog was fiction but if it was, then she is a great writer
She remains an icon in the world of blogging and would have following with or without photos.
For those who think that her deception has done you harm, you really need to get a life.
Personally, I think the world is a better place with Steph in it--oh, and Kylie
I hope they both make a come back
OK, let’s get some blood on our hands…
Steph: I’m pleased you didn’t take your bat and blog and go scuttling away like a weasel, baby. Coz I really do love you to bits. Now, as to the reason I unmasked you when presented with the evidence…well it’s like this. Actually, Uber said it best so I might steal her line for starters… ‘What- her frigging blog on its own merits wasn't enough? She had to be gorgeous as well?’
Your blog was stupendous !!! You gave exactly what your banner promised; gob-smackingly banal rants from a vapid famewhore. Mostly I found it unreadable porridge…but I came back for more every time because you were managing to feed all these hungry people with your appalling porridge and I was fascinated by it. Your posts were prompt, entertaining, almost witty and made a lot of people happy for some reason. As a host you were gracious, punctual, attentive and always ready to reply and engage with your reader/commenters. 10/10 for it…MAAS was a triumph of mediocrity over substance. But…don’t for one second try and deny that having your readers believe you were the chick in the pics didn’t get you a whole lot more cyber-attention than you would have had otherwise. You knew exactly what you were doing there…didn’t you.
And be honest, did I ever come over to MAAS and drool over you like a baboon and say how talented you were ?? No.
Did I ever come over to MAAS and give you a good slap for churning out porridge and calling it filet mignon ?? Yes…probably every second post.
So, at least do me the courtesy of not lumping me in with the rest of your readership, you conceited cabbage.
Have you seen me screaming ‘FAKE…FRAUD…SHE LIED TO ME…I’VE BEEN RIPPED OFF…I WANT MY MONEY BACK’ ?? No…because I don’t feel any of that.
In fact, when the whistleblower showed me the evidence, my reaction (and he/she might back me up here if they decide to reveal themselves) was ‘Oh fuck…that is too funny…that’s fucking hilarious…’
No, the reason I ‘outed’ you was because after defending you against your delusional haters and whacking your stalkers over the helmet with a cold spoon…you thanked me genuinely…then spoiled it by ‘rewarding’ me with the fake pics. And that makes me a little angry about what you think of me…coz I don’t ever remember asking you to pat my head or tickle my tummy.
So, this little post was far less about tearing down your iconic legacy and more about letting you know it’s not clever to fuck with Uncle Fingers…
Kylie: Let me put this in terms even you might understand, you sewer-mouthed GenY cum-bucket !!! I don’t give a flying fuckoo about the slightly mischievous deception you two ran on the blog. I liked the blog and it entertained me. You two pot-plants couldn’t betray me in any conceivable way…because I don’t give a rat’s ass about either of you in a real-world sense. So, go cry yourself a river, moron !!!
Rode your coat-tails ?? Sent me traffic ?? I wouldn’t piss on most MAAS readers if their heads were on fire. But hey thanks a heap anyways…how about I send YOU a photo of my dick (or maybe Matt Damon’s), which you can turn into a screen-saver and lick for the rest of the day if you like.
And I give even less of a fuck about the people who actually do feel let down by this situation…
You two plonkers might be fat-assed, humpback, hair-lipped check-out chicks from Penrith in real life for all I know and care. Maybe you just get your kicks climbing into your MAAS avatars each week and turning yourself into sexy, giant-blue cat people, swinging through the cyber-trees in your ‘Fern Gully’ blogscape ??
It’s not the deception that bothers me…it’s the fact that it’s just not all that clever…a bit like doing magic tricks on radio. Anyone can do it.
And BTW…in terms of free publicity for your new blog…this little shit-storm is on me.
Kisses on all your pink bits too…
Kitty: Your second comment about the 5 stages of grief was one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. Then you went and deleted it…and the others…and your blog. Well done. Heat…kitchen…you’re pathetic.
Uber: Jesus H Christ…I let off a fire-cracker under ‘Steph’ and you immediately release your entire nuclear arsenal. FFS, I agree with you mostly...but you wouldn’t let me get to that bit. I too have contact with ‘Steph’ outside the blog and whilst I wouldn’t call us close friends we have a pretty good rapport going. She’s always struck me as intelligent, thoughtful, amusing and nothing like the bimbo she pretends to be on MAAS. I get it. It’s an alter-ego thing. We discuss blog shit, blog politics, haters, stalkers and her real-life embarrassment at having rather fat legs compared to the rest of her body. We argue off-blog and then we slag people off as well. We have a mutual adoration thing going. And I’m proud of her response to having her pants pulled down a bit here. She and I are even as far as I’m concerned. If anyone else has a ledger to square…then as you like to say…they can kiss my fucking ass !!! And yes her blog was quite brilliant in its own way and she never claimed to have been anything more than the clutz she wrote about most of the time and we all enjoyed the ride. Have I said otherwise anywhere ?? NO…
As for her ‘genius’ or her lasting ‘legacy’ on Blogger…may I just say Bahahahahahahahahahahahahaha…are you on fucking drugs ??
Hey, here’s an idea…let’s make August 25th Steph’s Legacy Day…we can all buy blonde wigs and wear them for the day and donate the wig-money to the survivors of The MAAS Massacre…
I’ll be back shortly…saving the best for last…
Wow, and here people thought I would be the one to lose my shit and go off on Steph. Honestly, the blog was brilliant as blogs go. I hate that she's removed it. It didn't need the pictures to make it worthwhile to me. I do hate the deception and I do have some serious concerns about why it went so far, but overall I have to admit, if Steph comes back and continues writing, well, I'm going to continue reading it. She's a damn good blogger, whoever the hell she is.
And just to make sure this is clear, I am NOT the naked guy on the toilet. I have no fucking clue who he is. And I once embellished the shit out of a blog post about my vacation to Florida with a woman throwing me down the stairs because not one damn thing happened and it was boring. I figured I was over the top enough that people would know it was mostly bullshit, though. I just wanted to clear the air about that, just in case the shitstorm picks up speed and starts taking the rest of the blogworld with it.
"Watchers watch, Keepers Keep, Bloggers Blog as ... derspatz laughs his ass off !"
Noice one Steph. Colour "Kylies Keeper" as being VERY impressed !
You'll always be DQ to me ... and happy to have been pwned by ya. :)
regarDS
Out of compassion for poor Memphis Steve, I'd also like to add that most of "Much ado" isn't completely offline.
An online backup of everything from its beginning through to July 11 2008 kinda accidentally fell into my kinda public archives as a Internut Explorer "mht" file over here: https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B1-qhFo8zn0FNjVlM2IzODMtMjAzMC00YmU2LWI4ZDktYzNmNzc4Yjg5Mzlk&export=download&hl=en
:)
regarDS
i seriously must be the only person in the world who thought her blog was shit. it was like the ramblings of an eccied out crack ho. i must be missing something.
I was hooked. It was like crack to me.
Step - if you read this - come back.. Yes we will make you eat humble pie and rib you for a while and make you feel uncomfortable but then it's not like you just ate a child or threw a cat in the bin. The cunts would probably always be cunts but us nice ppl all forgive you.
Email me if you want to chat
Fingers- Don't imply I am some sycophant as that hat does not fit me at all. In fact, Steph and I are not even friends, have not been for a long time, but I am never going to remain silent when anyone is being gang raped.
It's a moral issue.
All her adorers could not wait to rip her to shreds the minute she did not measure up to everyones' masturbatory fantasy,despite the moral spin they put on it.She killed everyones' fantasy and that's why they're mad.
Having said that,she would have had her readership regardless, because it took more than pretty pics to spin fluff into gold. As for her caper, given WHO she chose to represent her,how easily she could have been rumbled but wasn't for YEARS ,it was brilliant in so much as it is the theatre of the absurd.And whilst she represented the Mary Pickford of the sphere she was also being everyone's biggest fear. That's fantastic and she truly earned her blog tag on that alone. !
It was the best sting I ever saw!
* She was both my biggest,most vocal champion once and later a real bitch[the latter never having overridden the former],so I KNOW she was REAL. :)
@ Whistleblower- No one elected you to speak on behalf of her entire readership! And in any event, you are wrong, whether she tried or not, she did not conceal her true self if anyone took the time to get to know her. She used her blog to give everyone a sit under her blog light,she embraced and supported new bloggers, valiantly stood up for others during blog bullying and put her heart and soul and huge amounts of time into other bloggers and her commenters.
And let us NOT forget she kept half the sphere entertained with her very real wit, charm and smarts.
No one has any right to expect anything more out of a blog and she excelled.
Now go find someone elses' closet to rummage through like a little old granny!
Personally, I hope she comes back and does it all over again as someone else.
What's complicated about this - Steph Shaw is a fraud? To most, it as a matter of amusement, however, there are others she/he burned badly. It's a reflection of the self-centred and shallow world she/he chose to spend so much time and energy upon that some can only see their own amusement and not the more serious fraud she/he perpetuated on others. There was more to "Steph's" fraud than the blog. The only ring of truth in her blog was the need for a psychiatrist. Anyone who would devote so much effort, time and energy on one moment of falseness after another, needs therapy urgently. Like the "Behind Big Brother" world she immersed herself in, almost everything about "Steph" was a lie, including gender probably. It's a site for gays, desperate women and fakes mostly. Either way, Steph has proved the point.
Canis loopy trolololol!
You've got your panties in a bunch cos you wanted to sex someone you now think is a guy? haha
I'm the guy damnit! A gay one at that. *insert eye roll here*
Oh and I'm very real excuse me!
Arna you twit she didn't block you she deleted the whole account cos she went soft!
Epic fail.
Did Kylie the fake say something about Steph the fake which we are expected to believe?
Now there is an epic fail!
Nuts anyone ??
We have plenty...
OK, now I have been asked...off-blog...in light of what we now know...whether there is any truth to Steph's assertion that she is part Aboriginal.
Now I don't mind a bit of fucking around but impersonating an indigenous person is serious stuff.
So, for the record can I state that I have irrefutable proof of Steph's blackness...coz she sent me the photo of her winning the womens 400 metres at the Sydney Olympics.
So, can we put that vicious rumour to bed now please...
Pint ?
I forget what that means.
Am I buying or is that your shout...
part aboriginal eh?
bad news for you fingers.
now you owe her an official "sorry".
yeah cheap gag. someone had to do it.
OMG
WTF
SOME BIATCH STOLE MY HOTNESS???
ROTFLMAO
LOLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm still REAL!
I used to go to MAAS just to hear the song until she started it up again, howver short lived.
If that's her mom, then I want to go out with her too!! Even if it's not her or her mom, I want to go out with them.
I'm just another dirty old man I guess.
Insert Big Sigh here.
I can fly up to Memphis to check on Steve on Saturday if I need to. It's only a couple hours by air.
I'm buying, you just supply the nuts
Oh, and I'll get a Grey Goose for Steph
So, just out of mild curiosity, where is Cath of Hacked by Smack fame in all of this? Surely she can't have missed out on this entire episode? She thinks she's Steph's best friend.
Yes, my mind works in odd ways. I think of weird things like this. I'm curious to read her reaction.
Wow.
Just Wow.
This is one of the most entertaining things I've read in the blogger world in a long time.
Fake bloggers? Holy shit, who'd have thunk it...
And for the record my favorite bit here was U Steve's If the Internets were restricted to real people who weren't crackers there would be like 5 of us.
No one has ever doubted my identity, but if they did I have 19bloggers I've met that can vouch for me.
Of course I suppose I could have made them all up...
@ memphis- Good point.
Miss Smack was aware of this as it was unfolding. I informed her myself. I also warned her off of jumping into the fray to kick the underdog, which is her wont,but instead to support Steph.
Where is she, indeed.
ubermouth - there's no "underdog" here except honesty, and Steph and Kylie were giving it a good kicking for their own personal amusement.
'Steph' did nothing for me, actually.
Now tell me that the REAL Steph is overweight, has a wonkey eye and a club foot and I just might get a semi-lob on.
I LIKE REAL WOMEN ! Especially ones with very little make-up and that fart.
I am loathe to say anymore as this is not my blog,but it's not pleasant watch a hungry pack of wolves devour someone over a silly lark.
Canis there is always an underdog when it's a mob, and this is what it is.
You all need to get a grip. Was she secertly engaged to you all? What great betrayal waas there? To her friends online she was real, as a blogger she was one of the most supportive and generous ,so she used a few fake pics on her blog.Big,fat deal! One does not have a relationship with a blog but a person, and behind the scenes she was herself.
You'd bloody think she was running a pedophile ring from her blog or exploiting her popularity for cash returns the way you lot carry on.
The bigger sin is that all her sycophantic friends online are either silent in her defence or gleefully ripping her eyes out.
Let's focus on all the positive she brought to the sphere for YEARS for she truly embodied community spirit and a bit of that in her favour would not go amiss now.
You sorry,barbaric lot make me fucking sick.
@ Loakim~ :o/
I have a wonk eye, yes.... but 'Steph' is NOT me!!!
I'm afraid I am not nearly as entertaining as Steph makes out to be.
And truth be told, I have enough drama in my real life, than to go around making that shit up.
Ubermouth, there's no mob. Just people expressing a natural revulsion for dishonesty. The blog was the tip of the ice-berg, or an entry point for more elaborate and perverse dishonesty, which involved her own attraction to males, using even more photos as an enticement. Oddly, she was the one getting the cheap sexual thrills by it all by imagining she was getting someone else sexually excited at an image which wasn't her. Despite efforts to keep MSM chats above the waist with her, it was Steph, all on her lonesome, getting the cyber-thrills late at night.
Nonetheless, despite this oddity, Steph has her virtues, ones which her blog don't reveal. It's a pity she hasn't the confidence to believe in them so as to be herself. Excusing her dishonesty in the way you are doesn't help her ... and yes, Steph does need help, a great deal.
Fingers--we cant go back and read now but from memory I don't think Steph claimed any Aboriginality.
I think she said that she had cousins or a cousin who were of Aborininal blood.
There appears to be a lot of people making up their own story and allegations when you only outed Steph for using photos of another girl
I look forward to the first post on her new blog---hope she sends me a link
But til then, I'll drink pints with you and talk shit
For the record all the photos of my cock out-there on the internet are real.
Okey-dokey...last word from me on this ridiculous subject...
Style: Um-ahhhh, look what you did, baby. You're Columbo !!! You're Sherlock Fucking Holmes !!! You're Ace ventura: Steph detective !!!
Look, whatever your reasons for passing what you found over to me...bothered. Seems to me your ledger is square now.
Memphis: Mate, I want you to take this comment as though it came from a friend because at the end of the day I like you. Hate your silly obsession...like you.
But, if the world were a kitchen draw and all the people in it were spoons...mate you'd be the giant soup ladle up the back. You are going off like a child who's just had all his mail to Santa returned. Which would be fine if you were a child rather than an intelligent middle-aged man, and even finer if the letters were wishes for toys rather than pleas begging Santa to let you move to the North Pole so you can party with him and the elves forever.
Anyway, look for some positives here: firstly Steph may actually be a hideous moose-pig...and secondly, Staci is far closer to go and visit than Steph will ever be.
Spiker: You're not out of the woods yet either, young lady. I'm still not 100% sure you're not a 150kg inmate serving a life sentence for something at a male supermax prison in Bumfuck, Illinois.
To everyone else:
If you fall into the category of people whose lives have been shattered by this scandal may I suggest getting a new one anyway because the one you have is clearly defective.
If you're a first-time commenter here, drawn to Steph's poor bloody carcass by the sight of the vultures circling overhead may I ask you to never come back here again because you are clearly deranged and have no sense of perspective. In other words FUCK OFF !!!
If you're a regular here on TWG and had an opinion on the subject which I haven't responded to may I suggest having stronger opinions next time, you fence-sitting pussies.
Special mentions to Bammers, Emma, xl, Chuck, Ute and Clyde for making some very rational comments.
Emma, please go visit Bammers at his new blog as he needs encouragement to bring out the best in him. Unique, give it up...she's never gonna sleep with you. Bad Bob, just give it up.
'derspatz', haven't decided on you yet but I'm watching you real closely...so be careful.
And that's all I have to say on this topic...
bummmmmmmmerrrrrrrrr!
way short of that comment tonne we were all hoping for!
excuse me mr fingret, it just took way longer than first anticipated to devour that bright yellow cunt of a canary you left at my front door.
what, are you all pissy cause i don't care enough to persist with being a player of the retarded, pointless game?
well you know what they say sweetpea:
HATE THE GAME, NOT THE PLAYER.
Listen, all is well and I am good. A few fraudulent photos on an otherwise excellent blog is fine. I am over it. I'd still buy Steph a drink if she didn't have that restraining order preventing me from doing so. She's OK by me. And what the hell, I'd buy one for Kylie, too. And you, if you'd ride that Vespa on over and accept it. Bring Kitty if she's willing to accept a drink from me. Bring Nicole Kidman. What the hell, I'd buy a round for the whole gang and forget about Staci Cole.
Yeah, some people are a bit rabid over Steph's carcass and even I was a bit disturbed by it. If I'm a bit nuts I apologize. She wrote one hell of a blog. I'm going to miss her.
sorry, i'm still coughing up feathers i'm not up for drinks just yet.
MS: Aw mate, I am so proud of you right now. And to all you people who thought a bit of tough love wasn't the answer...SWIVEL...
You too, Kitty...swivel...
Clyde: Well done, mate. You're the first person who actually noticed that was ALL I did...
Well seeing as it's honesty-time I may as well admit to something myself !
Kevin is secretly a woman? The Whine Guide is turning into a confession forum here. Either that or the Australian version of "Punk'd"
*yawn*
Hi baby. oh um, You know I thought to tell you what I think about all of this but...you've had your say. And what I think really don't matter anymore.
No I'm not an inmate serving a life sentence for something at a male supermax prison in Bumfuck, Illinois. I keep people out of prison...remember. And no, I'm not a 16 year old boy (you wish) or a 16 year old girl. I've been around the block. As a matter of fact at 16 I had been around the block and I must admit...more than once. :) Good times sweetie...good times.
Out of the woods. What??? You have always been suspicious of me. I just thought you were eccentric at first. I mean you did try to buy a pair of women's jeans.
Oh and I agree kitty's 5 stages of grief was one of the funniest comments I've seen...Kitty put it back up...please.
Okay I'm out of here. later sweetie. I think I can manage at least 6-7 glasses of wine tonight...before I pass out.
have a great weekend. xxx
@spiky - no
:o)
Listen, aside from Arna's shock at having entrusted Steph with $1000 worth of merchandise and worrying that she's been robbed, the rest of us have basically only been fooled in regards to Steph not actually having a plastic Barbie face and plastic breasts. In the photos of her that she posted early in her blog clearly she is a girl, has blond hair, and isn't a three-toed sloth. She was the nicest, most entertaining blogger around, and gave us all a great deal of free entertainment. Uber, in her comic book villainess way of expressing things, is right. The feeding frenzy at Steph's expense is a bit disturbing. So we now know that she isn't Barbie or Staci Cole. That's good to know. But other than that she's still pretty damn cool.
I admire Steph all the more now.
Do you numpties really like Barby clones ???
I bet the real 'Steph' is something to behold.
Electic Karen, you are freaking me out with that picture. I actually know a girl who used to blog who strongly resembles that photo. And in this case, I actually know the girl and am quite sure of what she looks like, just to clear that up before it springs into a thread of its own.
On the verge of 2 centuries in a row, sealing your place in the batting order with 1 more comment...
A cricket analogy answered by another in the news at the moment... how do you do it?

And as a reward for your help I am donating 5000 crocodiles to your country's flood relief programme...
There are rumours abounding in Islamabad that the floods were started by a suicide plumber....
*shameless theft of comedy*
"There are rumours abounding in Islamabad that the floods were started by a suicide plumber...."
oh i'm ashamed to admit that genuinely made me laugh out loud.
you two are like the new lewis/martin or hope/crosby.
i'll have the veal and i'm tipping the waitress on my way out.
Yes I got a good giggle out of that one too -- if only I had come up with it!
You can imagine God sitting up there wondering why Pakistan looks like a giant bowl of Coco Pops...
*more shameless theft but why waste it?*
LOL
*more shameless theft but why waste it?*
oh bambambam, if this steph saga has taught us anything it's that you should stop giving credit where credit is due...
sorry, couldn't resist lol
*hanging head*
OK Fingers Fans.... I have officially posted my first blog.
Please proceed with the ceremonial tearing me to shreds....
Gosh it's been so long since anyone tried it...does anyone remember what the penalty is for spruiking your own blog on TWG...
I was just being ironic there, by the way. Only kidding.
Steve-Let's let him get comfy before we rip his nads off, shall we? :)
Fingers- Said 'gosh'!!! Surely we're not going to let that slip are we?
And by that Steve, I mean we'll make him really welcome and comfy first,before we pull the rug out from under him and show him what blogging is really all about.
For now I say we pounce on Fingers for his 'gosh'. Golly gee whiz,whoever thought that's how Fingers really talks! What a fraud!
kitty: hi kitten. hehehe. I knew you wouldn't but I had to ask, just in case...
xxx
@Steve I'm a lot of things, but a fraud I am not! haha
@Uber Butter me up, and then fuck me.... oh, and you can comment on my blog when you're done.
hahahaha Bam. Very clever...you do know that me and Fingers dabble in human trafficking and you're now my 'bitch'?
No, I did not know that, but I'd be just about anyone's bitch at the moment! No questions asked.
Here you are,Bam. :)

After all this I still don't understand how you think Ayn Rand is a piece of literary brilliance.
I know she's never gonna sleep with me! Neither is her mom. First off, we'd have to be on the same continent. Secondly, I'll bet she would want to if I ever get down there. So would her mom. OK, that's my fantasy anyway. I'm just another dirty old man, but I would take her shoe shopping.
Time to whip up another scandal[providing it's not about me!] Fingers.
The spehre is getting slow again.
Why thank you, Heff. :)
A few phony photos for a fantasy phenom.
What I meant to say was, I agree with Phishez. The words rang true, but the photos were changed to protect the innocent. And maybe some names. It's all good. The legend lives on. One day we'll tell our children about it. And they'll say, "what's a blog?" And we'll say "nevermind, but it was awesome."
Hey, the new blog format looks great.
xx
Bloody Hell, I swear Fingers, you're the laziest blogger I've ever come across.
P.S I poisoned your fish. :)
New post!! Your fans demand it..geez!
Hey mate, did you realise how much that Staci Cole chick looks like Steph ?
You tease, I thought your comment at my 'mansion' was a breadcrumb trail to a new post.
OR
Were you just feeling neglected?
Can't take the competition eh, Fingers?
If your looking for a real scorching hot blonde come read my blog! Okay its a fitness blog but there are plenty of pictures and they are all real :D
If I didn't know better I'd swear this last post broke your heart and ruined the thrill of blogging for you. Dry your tears, man, the stories were real, only the names and faces were changed to protect the ... er ... innocent. And now you know that every day, as you motor through downtown Sydney, somewhere in that milling crowd of Aussies are the very females you read about and conversed with. You just have no idea what they look like or who they are when you see them. Steph and Kylie may be standing beside you at this very moment. Boo!
She's over it. Can your blog recover too? !? Please!!!
Write something.
Tell us about the prep for your party in Nov.
xx
For the record ... I enjoyed reading both Steph's and Kiley's blogs and I don't give a damn who wrote them.
