    just because the review is threatening doesn't mean it's necessarily wrong

    I don't know, looked at the person's profile and they are writing Harry Potter LGBT edition. You never know these days. Met a few people like that in real life, let's just say I avoid them like a plague now

    Review on https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12653595/1/A-Call-Beyond that sort of hits every element of awful. While laughing at the crazy is certainly necessary to fully appreciate this greatest of reviews I also enjoy the quibbling over minor grammatical points and the insistence that one of the rare fanfictions that actually moves at a decent clip slow down so crazy can have more time to digest that things change throughout a story.

    It also appears they're using illeism. Zombie doesn't know how we feel about that.

    Review for a story I describe in my profile as inspired by Renegade Cause. Well fuck me running. @Silens Cursor, I have been caught red handed.

    I get this crap all the time. My profile lists off a bunch of cliches I hate to read in stories, and then I get people calling me hypocritical because some of my stories are exactly what I say on the list. I'm just like, no shit, because those stories were written before I made that list.

    Looks like I just got hit with the homophonic girl as well.
    Sometimes, all you can do is laugh.

    No way that person is real. From the first paragraph of their story:

    "Harry lived under the stairs like the LGBT live under the crushing expectations of society's view on gender and sexuality."

    You must not interact with too many SJWs. What really cracks me up is she's white, but claims to be black, and is straight according to her author page.

    Had a bit more of a flick through, not a fucking chance the writer of this chapter is doing it for anything other than a laugh.

    My first reaction: "Hoo boy, looks like someone skipped their medication for the day."

    My second reaction: "What the fork is a 'herk?'"

    Looked it up, was somewhat disappointed.


    Regarding MoRon, I think that‘s a relatively common moniker among particular groups of the fandom? Definitely feels like something out of a Facebook comment section, though.

    Pretty sure herk is a typo of hero.

    Could be. It also might supposedly mean a jerk that's hot as well.

    Normally I would moderate away obvious trolls like this but I find it too hilarious to delete.
