When you say "obssessed fans," are you still talking about the people who were nagging Heywood? I'm not sure if you're being purposely vague here. I suspect that you are, but I could be wrong. if so, then you're likening the people who were all, "ohh Heywood I wanna have your babies!!!11" with people who are so obssessed with D&D that they thought they were vampires? Because that's *really* stretching it.

Oh, so it was just a pointless aside, then?

Sorry, I didn't read any of that. When you start using the term GUassian bell-curve about a FREAKING BOARD ABOUT BAD FANFICTION, I tend to tune out. Actually, at first I thought you were kidding, because it struck me as being incredibly ridiculous--same with your "serial killers and D&D are realated" thing--and I'm always inclined at first to believe that what sounds ridiculous is a joke, because really, who the hell would say something like that and expect to be taken seriously? I gave you the benefit of the doubt. But I guess you were serious after all. Sorry, I can't respond to that without giggling.

Which I said nothing about and so I don't even know why you brign it up. Actually, you're bringing up a lot of things that I've said nothing about.

You don't have to link me, thanks, I remember pretty well what your tone was like.

Right, because you *seriously thought* that I controlled people with my breasts. Well, considering that I thought you were joking about a few other things and found out that you weren't....

PS - I'm sorry, I really don't have much time for this anymore. I realize that you're baiting me with all these other outside issues that have nothing to do with what i originally posted to you, and I guess you're sitting there giggling over it because you've gotten me to respond. My bad, feeding trollishness and all of that. It's time for me to stop.

Oh, you're more than welcome to the last words here, so please add what you want.
