    So, a trend on Twitter at the moment is #cutforbieber, with people cutting themselves until Justin Bieber stops smoking weed. It was presumably made as a joke to see if any of his fans are stupid enough to actually do it.

    What do you think - is this person serious? https://twitter.com/dutchminati

    edit: googled 'guinea pig in a cage' and the same picture she used when she threatened to microwave her guinea pig (yep.) came up. If it's a troll, it's a bloody elaborate and bloody good one!

    To be honest I find it sad that people are even spreading that link. I don't know twitter, but that girl has mentioned she's been bullied and has mentioned killing herself which is not a laughing matter - just remember that Amanda girl.

    Plus self harm is a very serious issue. People do it in terrible states of depression where it actually brings them relief from there dark gloomy thoughts,cutting in that state of mind can be therapeutic to the sufferer. These fools have a choice and quite frankly it's disgusting and delusional.

    I don't use twitter at all... but just scrolled down the page of the link you posted, and a post by one Frankie Boyle jumped out:

    Frankie Boyle:
    "I feel a lot of sympathy for you if you self harm. I'd like to harm you too. #cut4bieber"

    Wasn't this set up by 4chan as a troll?

    yeah it was 4chan, incredibly well played by them just shows the internet is a stupid place (apart from this forum, of course) and things like twitter can be easily manipulated

    lots of the images/profile pics they used were straight off google images, but of course people are so obsessed with the Bieber stuff to notice

    This, or something like it, was inevitable. It is a crossing of the rubicon, threats of mass self harm, "flashcutting" , where celebrity meets the internet meets teenage girls.
