I considered making this joke, but then thought that it was the kind of thing that Theo would do.

I have a nemesis. She both hates my guts and wants to be me.

#47

Do you actively work to undermine her in any way or vice-versa?

I used to have a rival when I was a teenager. He was head of the boysā€™ school magazine and I was head of the girlsā€™ school magazine. We were friends (I fancied him for a bit, ew gross), then he was inexplicably horrible to meā€¦ like he apologised for something nasty he said and yet the next thing I knew he was telling someone he wanted me to drown in a river??? Literally such an arsehole. Smug Tory too, the human definition of mansplaining, now works for the Mailā€™s sport section.

Low point was when (while we were not on terrible terms) I invited him to a Facebook event about Non-League Day as he was ostensibly a huge football fan. His posted this:

"Dear All,

Iā€™ve sent off for my FOOTBALL LEAGUE tickets so regrettably I cannot attend NON LEAGUE day. Which isnā€™t even non league day because LEAGUE ONE and to some extent two are playing. But best of luck to the Tonbridge Angels, I saw they beat Bury Town who have the misfortune of fielding our rather useless striker James Scowcroft these days. I guess that really more than anything shows the difference in class.

Lots of footbally love,
[his name]
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

Still, I had the last laugh two weeks agoā€¦ because he supports Leyton Orient :smiley: :smiley: :smiley: Needless to say, I will be tweeting him a screenshot on the next NLD. Literally canā€™t wait.

She has tried to undermine me by hacking the accounts of the voluntary organisation we had both been working on (and deleting the Twitter, which was something Iā€™d spent months building up), attempting to turn friends against me, tell my first Countdown ex (who at that point Iā€™d not really spoken to for over 2 years) a very revisionist version of what happened, and sending me a stream of bile about how she was much better at training to be a journalist than me, why I didnā€™t get a job I went for at a place Iā€™d done work experience (Iā€™m a ā€œjumped-up little so-and-so who thinks she knows everything and doesnā€™t want to learnā€), and how any ā€˜real journalistā€™ would laugh in my face if they knew I was struggling with the exams because they were so easy. the stream of bile was triggered by me drunkenly shitposting to a friend about how Dark Side Of The Moon is crap, which set her off because she wasnā€™t ā€œsafeā€ from my ā€œadolescent drivelā€.

I have undermined her by staying Queen Bee, getting the Twitter account back, getting more than double the number of people at my London event than went to her London event 3 years ago, refriending my first Countdown ex and giving him the full story, and probably shagging someone she shagged a few years ago who it turns out has liked me all along.* (*This is not a deliberate underminingā€¦ I have also fancied him for ages.)

i have just looked him up and it turns out he has reinvented himself as an earnest singer songwriter of the worst possible kind, thereby humiliating himself more than i could ever dream of.
