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"

Sure. It's not like I never write drunk. It's also possible to write good fic while you're in class, and I've done that all the time when I was at uni, no regrets. But when it's gift fic, the recip deserves 100% of your undivided full attention going into the writing, and if you blatantly announce that you can't do that, you're a dick.

All the stuff people commonly do to lower expectations on their fic and make themselves feel better if readers don’t respond to it (“I wrote this in class” “not beta read we die like men” “lol I wrote this high” “I don’t really know the show but I wrote this anyway!”) all come across really rudely when they’re attached to a gift. If someone handed you a knitted gift and said “sorry I’m a terrible knitter and I know it’s bad,” you would then have to say “no, it looks great, you’re really good!” out of politeness. Those kind of tags/notes make it all about the author and it’s not fair to the recipient.

Yeah, exactly. I feel about "I wrote this on mushrooms" exactly the same as about "I wrote this in class".

This is extra wild when you're literally pissing and moaning about someone with ADHD saying they took their meds to write the fic.

Do you want their attention or don't you?

OMG I love you, coalie!
I've been saying for a while that she was self-trolling, but some FFA nonnies didn't believe me. IT'S OVER DAMNIT!

[(Anonymous)]

I think she's also been the Watchmen troll. Ahh it feels good.

[(Anonymous)]

Hahahahhaha holy shit

Best anonfail since Morbane

[(Anonymous)]

Amazing! Christmas came early this year for coal!

[(Anonymous)]

When I got the notification in my email that they had commented to this post, I assumed it was them being upset about the wank about them or trying to set the record straight. I never dreamed that coal would be as blessed as having an anonfail of them trying to troll themselves... Yuletide really has come early.

Even if your initial instinct had been right, that would have been glorious in its own right - when has that kind of thing ever worked?

[(Anonymous)]

Had to come pay tribute to the source, goddaaaamn!

[(Anonymous)]

Nice!

I hope they're not literally pissing and moaning, or if they are I don't want to know.

Taking meds isn't the same thing as getting drunk or high.

[(Anonymous)]

You can absolutely become mentally altered from prescribed medication in a similar state to drunkness or highness but we have juicier things to discuss now, catch up!
