Wow...The one review I get is a guest review. But not just any guest review. MY VERY FIRST FLAME! Woohoo! If you didn't already detect the annoyance in my voice, then I'm sorry, but I couldn't make it any clearer without using a...colorful collection of words I learned from a group of very vulgar boys.

Guest: It sounds you are for Hitler. you are horrible.

That's it. Word for word. I don't know why I'm even responding to this, but they say venting always helps, right? RIGHT?

Well, I'm gonna help myself for once and I'm gonna respond.


Dear Guest Reviewer,

I realize I shouldn't even be wasting my time on this, but that review really pissed me off. I would be absolutely fine if you told me that you don't like what I'm doing, but no. You just HAD to tell me that I sound like a DICTATOR.

There are many things wrong with that review.

First, I'm not forcing anybody to participate.

Second, DON'T YOU DARE tell me that I'm a horrible person. I know I have my flaws. I GET IT. But there is no reason for you to tell me I'm a horrible person. You are entitled to your opinion. But I don't respect it.

Normally, I would go on and on, explaining thoroughly how you could have corrected your review to make it seem less...I don't know...RUDE. But I'm sure if you have to balls to tell me that I'm horrible, you sure as hell don't know a thing.

So tell me, did you think I was gonna let this slide? Or did you KNOW I was gonna retaliate? I have every right to report you, you know that?

Unless, of course, you were only seeking out attention.

It's actually pretty funny...Here I am, helping out with a movement that helps depressed teens, and you're telling me I'm horrible. I'm sorry if I can't be SUPERMAN! So are YOU actually doing something to help others? Let's see...Are you raising money to donate to the American Red Cross? Salvation Army?

Could you please explain to me how I sound like I'm for Hitler? Because if you could give me a good enough reason (I doubt you can...) I promise I will delete this.

AND I will apologize in a chapter, telling you how stupid I was or whatever.

But that's the thing, isn't it? I'm not stupid. And I'm not a horrible person. So why would you say that? Don't you think I have problems of my own, considering I'm part of the We Are More movement?

No. You don't. If you took the time to actually think it through, I'm sure you would've figured it out. I told you I was gonna write a W. A. M. story, right? Well, there's obviously a reason for that.

I'm seriously wasting my time here...

Just one VERY important question, though: Why?

That's been buzzing in my head since I started writing this terrible letter. Why would you do that? Why would you leave me a review insulting ME on a story site? Isn't this supposed to be where you can critique WRITING?

I'm sorry, but I just don't understand, and I would love it if you could explain.


Forever and Always,
Me
