12:42AM - Long Lost Wank

Hey everyone! I've been hunting for this wank through the archives of FW with no success, so I'm hoping this isn't an inappropriate place to ask for help?

I'm hunting for a wank that dealt with a Mary Sue author on the FAP boards (I think she had also made an appearance on Deleterius). I think it started out with her defending another Mary Sue fic, but it quickly degenerated into her defense of Mary Sues. Basically her point was that real life was unpleasant and she didn't want to think about it in her fiction and so all characters should be Mary Sues so she could read about perfect people and no stories should ever be unhappy because we just didn't need that with real life being so cruel already. It also included her comments on Lord of the Rings where she hated the fact that Frodo had to suffer and the whole quest in general because it was dark and full of bad things.

Does anyone remember this wank? Thanks!
