Grammar and Pr0n are Serious Business! >(
Mar. 11th, 2009 09:04 amWhat. The. Living. Fuck.
First I get stranded at Lakeline Mall past midnight for a couple hours or so (thank god I had Alian's phone number; she managed to send Jacob to drive over and pick me up. It's a looooooong drive, and I can't be more thankful enough. Like the Beatles said, I get by with a little help from my friends. ;; ) after picking up Regigigas and stupidly picking up CDs at Barnes 'N Noble instead of catching the final bus which I didn't know stopped after 11 pm (my fault), and it shows me never to go alone on a bus again.
The anonymous troll is at it again. JUST what I needed to see this morning after crummy sleep, oh boy. Why do I get the feeling it's the same anon or one of the anon's close friends ganging up on me? Apparently, telling him off for his miserable excuse of behavior = my inability to accept anything other than "mindless praise". What. The. Fuck. How is asking me "Do you have any concept of what a sentence actually is?" and calling me "clueless" about semicolons and ellipses in any manner constructive? Not to mention the "run on atrocities you've committed." Thanks for telling me how to improve my writing, buddy!
I can't be bothered to reply back anything snarky. So I wrote an LJ Message to the mod instead:
I am one of the contributors to your awesome One Sentence Pr0n meme. Anyway, I post a sentence to the FF4 category that MAY have pushed the boundaries a bit, which an anonymous person pointed out in a rude way: http://technophile.livejournal.com/276799.html?thread=9587775#t9587775
I'll let you view the discussion, see the "sentence" for yourself, as well as anon and I's little discussion. I understand that my grammar isn't always the best, but if I AM pushing boundaries, I'll be more than happy to remove or edit the sentence if it violates what the meme stands for. I've dealt with anon the best I could, but I felt it was time for the mod to step in before things got too ugly.
Thank you so much for reading my letter!
Ye gods, it's like the
fandomsecrets thread with Paperclipchains all over again.
