3:17pm: It had to happen.
Sesslerwank Ahoy
Not as sticky as the last one (yet) but we'll see where it goes. Right now it's only a little circle jerk. Here we go.
In the thread about her self published book, Adele defends her vanity press decision by saying, "
For the past few years people have been asking for me to get it in print so they could read it easier, as not many people like to read it online."
Someone calling themselves Charity shows up and calls her on it, saying that people have been asking Adele for years if they could jsut print the damned thing themselves, and she keeps shooting them down. She says she doesn't care what Adele does with her money or anyone else's, but Adele's argument doesn't make sense. She also says she's from (GASP!) F_W. One of our own, and we don't know you? Charity, step up.
"Skip" tries to snark that Charity's user name isn't very accurate. Boring.
Spools points out that Charity is not "rabid" and therefore should not be hated.
Adele replies. Printing paper, ink, and
the cost of electricity to run a printer is too expensive for people, so instead they can buy the book. Also, Adele seems to think that of
other people printed out her book, she would lose her copyright. But if she herself has it printed, her copyright stands. Or, in her words,
When something is an online story anybody can cut/paste and whalah they have written a novel. Uhh, yes.
Whalah. Charity laughs.Juliet defends Adele:
"OMG HUR WORK IS SO COOL SHE RAWKS" No, honestly. Those are her actual "words." Even hilarious-er, she points out that, hey, lots of books don't have a decent plot, what's the problem? Quiet possibly the bestest defense of Adele's work yet. ;)
Surprizingly (only without the actual surprize,) the thread is locked.
Charity, however, won't take no for an answer. F_W gets another
dishonorable mention.
In case this thread gets BAAAaaaaAAAaa-leted,
( here is the post behind the cut. )Another F_W Honorable mention by Adele. F_W IS OBSESSED W/ME!!!!!1111 (
"And the rants about me on F_W are stupid! Those people have no lives, they obsessively stalk these boards (and yes, obsessively!")
My god, the funny just keeps on coming.
