I didn't know that Kuribohs said "Reak" when they talked. Hell, it surprised me that they didn't look at the Kuriboh and yell, "What the hell is that!?" *shakes head* I'm sorry that you subjected yourself to reading such crap in order to make an MST of it. You should be paid for doing this, since it should be considered cruel and unusual punishment.

YOU RULE, DCHAN! MST's are like fiction...all in good fun! If the authoress actually looked over her stuff before she posted, she wouldn't have had her fic chewed up and discarded. GO YOU!

Why did you do this? MSTs are all in good fun usually. You seem to have simply pointed out every spelling and grammar mistake she made.
[It's the fact that there are so MANY that I take issue with.]
You think you're perfect?
[No, just a bitch.]
We all make mistakes.
[But so many in the same piece of writing?]
A good portion of fanfiction readers don't care about grammar and spelling because it can easily be ignored.
[Yes, but I am of the portion who does. Granted, I am extremely anal retentive and am tapdancing the line of abusive in this particulat MST, but oh well. You can flame/MST my fic when I get it out of edit and onto the site.]

I hope your proud of yourself. You probably spent a while working on this
[Why? This was basically for my own amusement. I feel rather neutral about the whole thing.
Actually, it took a surprisingly small amount of time.]
and now you post it to a website to show off how much of an asshole you are.
[Like you said, nobody's perfect.]

I must add...

Whildo tdo think you were wrong in this case, I must admit I agree with your opinions on Yugi in Hentailand. Meaning the author's over-reacting to advice that could better her fic. I just hope you'll think about the feelings of the authors before doing your MSTs[If [If I thought about that, I wouldn't do MSTs at all.]

I was wrong to be so ready to call you an asshole for this MST and I apologize for that.
[No offense taken. ryonryone is entitled to their opinion here.]
I tend to get protective over authors that are just starting out.
[Understandable. I just have no patience.]

I do wish you would offer advice in reviews though, rather then drawing so much attention to the bad points of a fic.
[I've been rather disillusioned with the whole CC thing on this site for a while now. The only people who seem to be able to take constructive criticism are those who are already extremely good writers. Everyone else seems to take a review that goes "This is pretty good, but...." as a personal attack. Gods forbid anyone tell them they did something wrong.]
To make fun of someone for writing a story you didn't enjoy is wrong.
[Never said I didn't enjoy it. If all the errors got fixed and the OC wasn't so Mary Sue-ish, it might actually be a good little fic. As it stands, however....]
If you don't like it, don't read it.
[Well, I couldn't know that I was going to have such a negative reaction before I read it. I had to read it at least once.]
If you think it can be improved, give the writer advice.
[Again, I'm just sick of trying that. The only ppl who take advice graciously seem to be those who don't really have that much wrong w/ their fics in the first place.]

Dchan I never said you mst me, but someone requested it for crosswire. I know a lot of my grammar is off, and flames never bug me. but mst is picking a it alittle to much. To me I can't get a chance taking but someone else msting that fic to me it was emotionally deep, dealing with disturbing realism issues lol in it like most of my dark fics. That’s all. Now if it was roommates that be different that fic was just fun.

i'm happy you never mst me

Bakurah:
Do you have nothing better ta do then this?
[Than, not then.
Finals week just ended at UAB, so no, I really don't have anything better to do. Deal with it.]
Ya don't have ta be so mean HMPH!
[I suppose not, but it's more amusing. It's especially amusing when the authors review the MSTs and get all huffy over it. Why don't you do something more productive like correcting all the errors in your story? That would actually shut me up.]

I'm finally able ta write my fics on here
[Thatdebadebatable.]
and have people like you
[Could you not think of anything else to say or did you fuck up an html tag? No matter. This just made my day. ^_^]

I don't have anyone that can check the fics over
Couldn't you be a little nicer of an editor?

Hey Bakurah! If you need someone to correct your spelling and stuff, I will do it, though it is funny to read Dchan's MST's.

[That's why you post and request a beta, or type your fics into MS Word first. The spelling/grammar checker will catch about 80% of the errors.]
Couldn't you be a little nicer of an editor?
[I COULD be, but I don't want to. Besides, I'm not acting as an editor. If I was editing, I would just take the fic and point out errors objectively. I only do that if someone asks me to. What I am doing is taking a fic that was posted without being proofread and pointing out err errors for all to see in a very caustic manner.]

Dchan your a jerk
[Last I checked, I did not own 'a jerk.' I believe you mean YOU'RE. You=you=you're.]
I don't see you writing on here!
[I'm a full time college student, and classes have JUST ended. I haven't had the time TO write anything other than MSTs, because writing those is simple, easy stress relief.]
You just enjoy putting people down don't ya
[Yup! ^_^ George Carlin and Chris Rock get paid quite well for doing shit like this.
And you should add a question mark to that last sentence, hon.]
