Ahaha!

Yesterday, I deleted all of Garou's 37 chapters except for the first and the last, in an attempt to cut down on whining. I left them up on my site, and left instructions about that in the fic itself, along with a notice of what I had done and why.

Today I have finally received my 666th review for Garou on FFnet.


The following review has been submitted to: Garou Chapter: 2

From: (a jealous moron who can't read and is butting in something they don't have a clue about)
-------------------

Two chapters and over 650 reviews and you discontinue?

What the *fuck* is wrong with you?

I'm sorry, but I just find that lack of persistence depressing in an author to give up so readily. I honestly do.

Ahahaha! ahaha.

aha.

I know there's a blindingly obvious, terrible irony in there. Somehow, though, I fail to be amused.

Well it's pretty obvious that that one just saw the listing (removing the chapters probably put it back at the top) with the chapter count and review and decided to comment without actually reading anything.

Whenever I feel masochistic I generally check reviews of joisbishmyoga's stuff but apparently I should be checking yours when I have the burning need to head!desk.

[askerian]

Yeeeeeah, just a bit. Stupid cunt.

Well, most of them are pretty nice, even if by the end I was in a state of mind that meant I wasn't able to properly apreciate them because every reminder that Garou even existed grated on my nerves. But man, there are a few... rrrgh.

[opalsong.livejournal.com]

heh (attack of the lurker -.-)
The review and reponse wer amusing ^^ .... someone can't read hey? Good luck with all the stupid people!

[askerian]

*clings to you and weeps* T__T

I snarled back at her, but copypaste didn't work so I don't have a copy. T_T

[complexphoenix.livejournal.com]

Is there any way to disable reviews on a story? There should be.

[askerian]

No, there's only a way to not be emailed about them anymore, but I don't know if it works on specific stories or if it's general. Besides, I'd rather know when people say something. *sigh*

[lissiel.livejournal.com]

Does he think you're getting anything at all out of writing these things other than the pleasure of doing so? If you don't have fun writing things, why on earth would you continue working on them? That's... utterly bizarre, actually.

I mean, I love to read your stories, and i'm really glad you enjoy writing them and are cool with sharing them with people (Cause a lot of authors who just do it as a hobby choose not to share, but I mean... damn. Just really bizarre, kid.

[askerian]

It's a she. =_=

*cuddlepets*

I understand being annoyed when someone starts a wildly popular and interesting fic and then just abandons it, but dude -- AT LEAST CHECK THE FUCKING DATES IF YOU CANT BE BOTHERED TO READ THE AUTHOR NOTES OR CHECK WHAT CHAPTER THE REVIEWS ARE FOR.

rrrrgh. *pitchforky*

[meanne77.livejournal.com]

tes reviewers me font hurler de rire...

[askerian]

Je rigolerai aussi dans une heure ou deux, mais pas tout de suite.

[zm1x5.livejournal.com]

I got scared for a second when you said you had removed it so I had to go make sure I still had it all saved. I hope you don't mind that I've saved it all to my desktop. I just loved it too much to have to get online whenever I wanted to read it.

I can't believe that person didn't bother realizing that a two chapter story wouldn't have 666 reviews, especially if she'd bothered to even read at least your author's notes. Incidently, I love that she was your 666th reviewer. It's funny.

[askerian]

Don't worry, I won't remove it from my site at least. Probably. I don't mind you keeping a copy at all, I would only mind if someone decided to repost it publically but I wouldn't care if, say, you sent it to a few friends through email. heck, that's rather smart of you, just in case morons decide to push me to prove that What the Writer Giveth, the Writer Can Taketh Away. XD;;;;

Yeha, it's rather ironic, isn't it. I'm kinda amused too.

[kinsugi.livejournal.com]

I have loved your writing for a long time. I usually go to your website to reread; I'm so happy you post in both languages. I am sure there are many of us out there who appreciate you... and try not to beg for things! Garou was great fun, thank you. Thank you even more for all your beautifully portrayed Naruto/Sasuke/Sakura threesomes; I think only a Frenchwoman could have done such a brilliant job, while keeping everyone in character! Please just keep writing... whatever you choose. You rock!

[askerian]

#.__.# thank you. *squishpetlove*

(haha. what's being french have to do with writing? XD)

[meanne77.livejournal.com]

attends, c'est à hurler de rire... t'as été sur le profil de la fille ? elle a 9 histoires de publiées, dont 6 qui sont en hiatus !! (les 3 autres sont surement des one shots...)
j'adore !!

(faudra qd même que je vérifie que j'ai tous les chapitres de WW quelque part à l'occasion, on sait jms, la la la... lol)

[askerian]

Yep. Et sa fic la plus populaire est un schoolfic où Naruto, Sasuke, Gaara et Neji ont, apparemment, une orgie. Mmmhhh. ♥

(oh, à toi je te les renverrais. Peut-être. :p)

[narsksas.livejournal.com]

Well, she was a dumbass. We still love you, dear, and we try our hardest to not make the stupid light go off.

[askerian]

*petpetlove*

[silverkiiri.livejournal.com]

::petsnuggle:: Some people... well, they make me glad I'm no author.

Will the chapters continue to be available on your site, just for future rereading purposes? ^^;

[askerian]

Of course. *pets* or else I would have deleted the whole fic. ;p

[mikkeneko.livejournal.com]

If I saw a fic with two chapters and over 600 reviews, I would definitely be mystefied enough to at least check what some of the reviews were for before I commented myself. :)

[askerian]

Yes, but see... YOU have a brain. And no reason to be jealous as fuck of me. Mmh.

[granate.livejournal.com]

Yeah, because writers only exist to please readers. Their own personal enjoyment of writing something has nothing to do with it.

[askerian]

=___= of course.

Hn.

[chrismakkuh.livejournal.com]

dude... what the fuck is wrong with people?!

[askerian]

=___= if you find out, tell me. I got nothing.

[stripedpetunia.livejournal.com]

I can't help but laugh at that. Not the sharpest pencil in the box, eh. It's pretty insulting though, and considering all the shit you get flung at you and the fact there are f-bombs asterisked in case you might miss them otherwise, yeah. ^^; It's always funnier later on.

[askerian]

Yeeeah, I really didn't appreciate the attack. At least she got rude first, so I had a good excuse to be rude right back. >D

[morgan-idril.livejournal.com]

One can never understand the ability of some to be totally oblivious to what is in front of them. On the other hand since you snarled back did you get the rest of the gene pool?

Thank you for leaving Garou up on your site at least for the moment. I am heading over there and downloading it. I enjoyed it very much.

[askerian]

Hehe. ^____^;;

I don't think i'm ever going to take it down from my site, but I might put it on a "secret" page and then i'll link only people I like or something...

... wait, no, that means people will start emailing me to have it. Blergh. Okay, it stays up. Too bad I can't remove my email from my site, though.

[des-butterfly.livejournal.com]

...the stupid. It stalks us. It must.

=__=

[askerian]

we are loved by the stupid.

nooooooooooooooooooooooo.


I think i'm gonna nag that moron for an apology. I know I'm not gonna get it, but fuck, I deserve one. and if i'm not getting my goddamn apology, then at least I'll get the satisfaction of shoving her nose right into the shit she left on my carpet.

[kat-chan.livejournal.com]

You mean that someone should bother to actually read something that isn't the fic itself???

And that you shouldn't just bow to their whim???

Don't you realize that they're entitled to your work, and you must oblige them?

*headdesks due to sarcasm output overload*

[(Anonymous)]

Oddly appropriate for the 666th review, don't you think?

It seems obvious to me that your latest poster is actually Satan.

[windandwater.livejournal.com]

I still think it's karma. XD!

[toki-usagi.livejournal.com]

*blinks, blinks again, and goes off to find tar and feathers*


WTF is it that the GOOD writiers have to shovel the shit and the fucked-as-all-hell-craptacular ones get all the "ooooooooooh, shiny! fangirl idiocy happysqueebouncedead!" reviews?

Oh right, fandom. 14-year-olds who can't be assed to READ everything properly. *headdesk*


Can I bring out the torch and flame her now? Or should I kick back and snicker at the stupid level?

[muffytaj.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, over 650 reviews, how DARE you have your own life? We reviewed you, now we OWN you bitch!

Urgh, entitlement whores.

[na-no-nai.livejournal.com]

O.o The stupid, it burns. *pets*

[(Anonymous)]

Lurker coming out of hiding, I'm sorry if you're thinking, "Geez, another one?" But I just wanted to say that the 666th reviewer is a horrible jerk. How could s/he say that to you? I would have discontinued my story if anyone reviewed like that to me.

I have read most of your rants (They're so funny and I love them. Maybe that's a bad thing to say, since you wrote them out of anger, but they're so sarcastic and witty that I can't help but find them hilarious.) and people really put you through some horrible stress. Please don't mind those idiot and I hope that people don't bother you anymore. ...Which is why I'll end this post.

Please feel free to email me at nay_1412@yahoo.com if you would like to reply to this. Sorry, I was too lazy to sign up for livejournal.
