	Um, yeah, February of 2002. He was filming in China, I believe it was and he fell off something and hit his head multiple times. He was in a coma for a few days before he died. I'm sorry if you didn't know. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	OMG, NO! I didn't know. I don't have any Xena fan friends, and I don't surf Xena sites that often, I just like watching the series... Oh, poor Kevin... weeps (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Here's a memorial site for Kevin you can visit. It has more information on what happened. There are other memorial sites around on the web as well, including an official memorial fund to help out Kevin's family. I'm very sorry you didn't know. This wasn't the best place to find out about it. (Reply to this)(Parent)

I'm saying that with each successive response, you seemed to be trying to further assert your superiority, rather than actually addressing that author's issues.

I happen to think that many Mary Sue authors have issues deep enough that a whole team of psychiatrists'd be needed to sort 'em out.

Of course, possibly she didn't mean those kinds of issues, but I'm choosing to indulge in that interpretation.

	And did anyone else look at the new entries and think "Oh god, they're going through the Cannon-Sue cycle again."? (Reply to this)(Thread)

	You mean the one where someone reports James Joyce's Portrait of the Artist and the thread rapidly disintegrates into "Aren't those books they makes us read in school HARD? They have so many BIG WORDS! And the nerve of those teachers to make us THINK about them!" Yeah. I noticed it too. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I started headbanging when they posted the Joyce book. When I start being able to look at the fucking post without massive cranial injury, I MIGHT post a "You're all idiots" post. Maybe. Except it's me, so it'll be bleedingly polite. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Done. It's the most recent comment on that post. It sounds wanky to an extreme extent, but I feel better now. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I was part of the wank! Noooooooooooo! I still stand by my Tate=Gary Stu comment, but he's not a canon sue, so I can stoke my ego. ::checks ego:: Nope. I still suck. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	I hate Joyce, but damn, marysues isn't the place to rant about it. I wish they'd just shut up about the canon sues and concentrate on the real Mary Sues. It's not like the community isn't active enough already. (Reply to this)(Parent)
