And another one!

[coalcube]

I see my nemesis getting a fic that I love
And I'm like, "Fuck you" 
I guess my 10k letter wasn't enough
I'm like, "Fuck you and fuck morbane, too"
Said, "If I was a long commenter, they woulda gamed for me"
Ha, now ain't that some shit?
(Ain't that some shit?)
And although there's pain in my chest
I still comment it's the best
And runs to coal to shout "Fuck you"

Watson, please stop dropping your jam jar into the fishtank.

I agree with you. However, I have seen this person’s work. I am not confident I would enjoy prose THEY turned out at speed and on drugs.

I can't eat brunch because of my dietary requirements so this is in fact discrimination.

lol isn't Michelin rather famously a three star system?

I wouldn't enjoy it if they didn't turn it out at speed either, so it's a push and there's no need to shit on people who can write fast.

CYRT these are all amazing, thank you

Good thing I wasn’t doing that.

Re: Treats for fishspeakers' recipient

The person I initially replied to was doing exactly that.

But their work seems normal for exchanges. It's not like you're going to get a winner every time.

Yeah, their writing is pretty questionable.

Same, the whole point of those meds is to make my brain focus, quiet the racing thoughts and sometimes help me sleep. It's not getting me high.

I wonder if this is the 'internet singularity' coalie, who thinks they are arguing with one and only one person at all times.

[(Anonymous)]

Nobody cares.

We have a full spread for any dietary requirement. But also hello, you must be the actual ableist troll. Please enjoy going and fucking yourself responsibly.

[(Anonymous)]

Aww look at who cares, look at who cares sooo much. How adorable, someday you'll have friends.

In my opinion the main problem is not that she's a bad writer, it's that she may try to start wank again about her fics in any possible way. If I were her recip, I would hate seeing my gift brought up in that context on FFA or Coal.
Also, saying in the comments that you didn't finish the movie you wrote about is a dick move.

I can't use condoms because of my latex allergy, can't believe you would say such an ableist thing to me, you disgust me.

[(Anonymous)]

i mean, the people saying “imagine writing ON DRUGS” about someone taking adhd meds (? wasnt she talking about weed and mushrooms?) definitely seem to care

[(Anonymous)]

Plenty of people use ADHD meds to get high. There's no proof that she has ADHD, and those kinds of drugs are illegal for everyone in most parts of the world.

i dont give a shit about her writing! lots of exchange participants suck at writing without doing… all this, and i have no beef with them

[(Anonymous)]

is there any proof that she doesnt have it, or that she lives in one of those parts?

[(Anonymous)]

You're using condoms? While you fuck yourself?

This is just a pathetic self own at this point. But also I'm thinking some Omegaverse bullshit is going on here.

She's an asshole.

I may be wrong, considering that now she's self-trolling even here, but my assumption was that she was insulting her writing because she wanted other people to defend and compliment her. Of course, at first nobody had seen her fics, so all people could say was "let's not judge her writing based on her Discord messages". But after FIAB collection opened, I think she genuinely wanted others to tell "the troll" that her writing was good, actually.
Basically, I don't think she's writing bad fic on purpose. I think she wants people to notice her fics and tell her that she's doing fine. Same thing she does in namespace with all her "oh no, what if my recip hates it?", etc.

Are you talking about the Harry Potter one? That one was awful. I would have rejected it too.
