Ye gods. Like we really needed more proof that she's living in a fantasy world (and not a good one!) when it comes to her own writing...



This is a thank you to everyone who sent in positive messages last weekend. So many positive messages that the e-mail crashed three times.

Bah. I'm not even sure how to begin. Are there really this many people out there willing to lick her boots? How completely disgusting is that?

Darla explained to me that the crash happened because of the overwhelming number of positive messages.

Ah. Isn't that interesting. Would this be one of the many people who seem to be charged with protecting the fair princess from the horrors of the outside world, I wonder?

everyone in the silent majority got together all at once and decided to let us know how much they love the books

The silent majority, huh? I wouldn't say her fans are particularly silent, by any means. And (just curious, of course) how does she know that those who will still defend her work are in the majority? I would say, just judging by the reviews on Amazon of her last few books, that if they were in the majority once, they aren't anymore.

One message we got several times was, if I had been that rude to anyone, they'd be screaming about it, and rightly so. But they feel justified in being that rude to me, to us.

Boot. Tongue. *slurp slurp slurp*

So very, very annoying. *sigh*

*snap snark*

...why do I keep getting the feeling that I'm wayyy too nice in my snarking?

Because you are?

You're thorough, but ever so proper, and lady like about it...:)

No, LKH dear, email doesn't work that way. It likely crashed because you were use Outlook *spits*, which is a crap piece of software anyway and prone to crashes for just sneezing on it. Or it was at the server end, and the problem was just a coincidence. Because, really, to get the amount of mail to crash the server, you'd never, ever be able to read all that fucking mail, so how would you even know that the majority of it was ass-licking crud?

No, wait! All that mail was actually spam! Think about it, you get a halfway coherent spam mail, and it does contain boot licking crap, so maybe she was reading her spam and got confused!

Or, she's so technologically inept that Darla came up with that excuse as something simple that LKH could actually grok without her pretty little head exploding.

Yep, that about sums it up. We should make an icon for the community with that ;-)

(Randomness: I know hanging around with me is like being in a time warp, but it's 2005, not 2003. *g* And the link is wrong. Or not. My comp hates working in the morning.)

Whoops. My bad. That was supposed to be a 5. Don't know what happened there... (And the link is wrong. But I'm not sure how to make it right. I just suck at this LJ stuff. *sigh*)

No worries. It's not a big deal. But if you want to edit (now or in the future), just click on the little button with the blue pencil =)
