Memes and WTF-Reviews
May. 8th, 2005 09:18 pmLook at the last ten posts in your LJ (including this one if you want) and try to sum the main body up in a relevant title. List them, and see how often you talk about the same thing:
Sixty years since end of WW2, what it brought us
My first LJ polls
Bah on character bashing, various news and a meme
Webcam shots, news, British election, headdesking review
GAFF, Kingdom of Heaven, The Poster Who Shall Not Be Named
Hobble shots, news, badfic meme
News, ff.net complaining, rabid shippers
Cam's bro on CSI, news, ff.net complaints, songfic meme
Ff.net says songfics are no-no, Cam is displeased
CSI fanfic, facts of sexlife, meme
Hmmm. There's a lot of links to newsstories, usually from BBC. Fanfiction in various forms and relations comes up a fair bit and there's some fandom stuff and memes. Not that much about me and my life, really. I'm a dull little Norwegian.
I was sorting through some old mails earlier and seeing what reviews from OFUM2 I had saved, and I found what has to be the 'worst' review OFUM2 got. And by 'worst' I mean mindblowingly WTF.
The following review has been submitted to:
Once More Into the Urple Depths of OFUM Chapter: 38
From: .o0 chibi 0o.()
konnichiwa! you should rite a sequal! taht is so KEWL!! U GOTTA FINISH DIS! LEGOLAS IS MINE --.o0 chibi 0o
Yes, quite. There are some reviews that just make you tilt your head and wonder which rabbithole they came from. There are some reviews that miss the point by so much they're practically in the stratosphere. There are some reviews that abuse grammar and spelling so you wonder if the person submitting can read at all. And there are some reviews that seem so pointless they're like littered broken arrows. It does make one wonder if some people review just to look at their own words.
Which got me thinking - what is the 'worst' review you could invent giving me? Pick any fanfic of mine and submit your review here. Whoever manages the most level of WTF can get a drabble or vignette request of me or something.
(Yes, I'm feeling slightly down. I need cheering up. Spank me, Warrick.)
