So, converse, if you would.

My favorite conversation of the day:

Guy: What's "Luther" about?
Me: Martin Luther.
Guy: Who's Martin Luther?

Is the first page of a test thread always spent marvelling at its existance? Becuase it always seemed like it... ah well, it's a tradition. Gotta uphold traditions.

Today marks a seminal moment in my experience as a journalist: my first reader flame letter!

Originally e-mailed to LAN.gnome:

I'm a senior at reynolds high school. I just recently noticed that i could email the staff at the reville and tell them my comments or praise their work. I see that you only do editorials on movies. My opinon on them is that your a dumbass that doesn't know shit about movies and therefore u shoudn't judge them u dumb piece of shit. Your review on the matrix reloaded was full of crap and u always put down every movie u ever saw. Everyone i have talked to has agreed with me saying that your comments are dumb and so are u, in fact u are gay. so stop writing shit that no one reads and everyone thinks that your stupid because of them. In fact i bet the only movie that u thought was good was The Crying Game and i can tell u why if u saw that movie u fag. If i ever see your snobby faget ass alone i will personally make sure u pay for everything u have ever writing and the way act. I hope u own something valuable that i can destroy but seeing how u dress and act i seriously doubt it. Now why don't u just come out of your little closet in your mind and admit that u are gay? we all know that u are and that u fuck your mom everyday in the ass.

sincerely, a concerned reader
P. S. your a faget that should get his ass kicked.

 :laff: I'm half-convinced that this is a joke; I have trouble believing that anyone with spelling skills as poor as this even knows what "The Crying Game" is.

@ title: Boo! Hiss! Traditional deprecatory comments, etc.

That was certainly amusing. I haven't even seen Reloaded, what did you say about it?

I mean, either this person was seriously concerned about movie ratings (a bit... weird), totally nutso, or it's a joke. Whoever sent that looks like they made it purposely deteriorate from proper writing into 'yo momma' joke-type writing.

Funny, nonetheless.

I mean, "Reloaded" certainly wasn't without its faults, but to write an angry letter to the local high school newspaper? What is he, the biggest Matrix fan-boy in the world?

Urgh, after a late night and an early morning typing I finshed my Monty Python and The Holy Grail PEELody, came out to around 4000 words. But I'm gonna hold on to it for a bit...

Holding off PEELodies later is like damming a river. They're gonna build up until the dam explodes and sweep PEEL with their bad jokes and plothole-pointing wonders.

But I digress.

I'm sure your PEELody is great. The only problem is that other people (points at self, and DrT88, and leelaholic) beat you to writing PEELodies before everyone became sick of the thought. Which I'm very sorry for, I should never have started PEELurama in the first place. Maybe your PEELody could have taken its place..

And that is why I am holding on to it. If I can survive to the end of the day though, I will be lucky. Maybe I will send it to various people 'in the know', and they can decide if it is good or not.

That was exactly what Nix and I were discussing, actually. Email it to both of us. My email address is my PEEL screen name and my email provider is hotmail.

I'm not sure, I gave Reloaded a B+, and said that I liked it for the most part.

It might really be because of some "Grudge-Match" style point-counterpoint articles I've written with fellow staffers before. We call them "Geek Shouting Matches," and we just pick two nerd icons (past examples: X-Men vs. JLA, Death Star vs. Enterprise, etc.) and pit them against one another. Maybe it was just the last nerdy straw.   ;)

Or maybe it was because of the last review we did; it was of Underworld and we (the interview was written by two people in almost an IM format) both expressed dissapointment with the movie, and recommended waiting for it to come out on video. We came down pretty hard on it; if you read my thoughts in the "It Stinks!" thread, you pretty much know my side of the article.

Opinions are perfectly fine, and that's what he knew he was reading; movie reviews are the reviewers opinion. It's your newspaper, not his.

Tell him I said for him to go to hell.

Yeah, if he wants to create his own, let him, but he shouldn't be trying to change your opinions.

I have been making meaningful posts, you ought to check out the whole ReCheck and Weird Scenes board. If all goes well, tomorrow will bring fifty more posts and I will become a Professor in only 30 days, that has got to be a non-spamming record.

Look on the bright side at least The Wonderful Edel doesn't come in this thread often so you didn't get the <font color=#FF0000>red type</font> treatment  :laff:
