Painfully American is a critique, not an insult. It's Astolat, she could write a shopping list and it would still be interesting. That makes it interesting to me that she missed the mark so widely for her HP fic, because she's pretty much the best fic writer out there.

'Ignorance is bliss' was not intended as an insult. After the last year and a half it's a heartfelt statement.

You didn't ask, you said 'o tell me wise one' or some such sarky bollocks, which is internet for 'i want a fight', and I'm just really not up for that. It's been a fucking awful day.

The reason I mentioned Astolat's drarry was because it's so ooc for her to miss the mark. Hell she even nailed Patrick O'Brien's style while writing mpreg. Also if I was reading an American fandom written by a Brit and an American told me it was culturally skewiff, I'd find that incredibly interesting and want to know more because that's the kind of stuff you just don't find out unless a native tells you. You weren't interested, the you wanted a fight. Not sure what else you expected?

No, i didn't want a fight. I was and am annoyed by someone who decided to pick out a single rec in a list of recs, and tell the person who obviously likes the stories there that 'hey, this series sucks'.

Sorry if you think that's polite chit-chat. To me, it's a way to poke at someone, try to make them feel small, and try to make yourself feel bigger.

You're Anon - i haven't the slightest idea if you're a Brit, an American, or a Martian, just that you felt the burning need to say 'hey, your rec sucks'.

I expected someone who was that insistent that their opinion be aired to go on and explain, because then at least there would have been a point to the original comment, but no - you backed out 'cause i didn't ask with the appropriate delight, awe, and humble anticipation, or something.

You go on and enjoy your day, I'm going to re-read some fics I enjoy and possibly, because why not, revel in the 'Americanness' (wtf that means) of them.

Ta ta.

Sorry I didn't sugar coat every single comment for you. You're clearly a jerk. So fuck you, hope you get shat on by a bird right in the hair.

Having a bird poop on you is actually good luck.
