Comments that leave you shaking your head

[Djmac1031]

I don't see shit from like 3/4 of the AH regulars on there. I think Bazzle is the only one I see with any sort of regularity and I repost every time I do.

my comment was more a jest to the overall number of people who follow me there, which is low comparatively.

But hey, quality over quantity

And I really dont post there much anyway.

A general head-scratcher - readers who post effusive comments, ones in particular containing the phrase 'Five Stars!' when a moment's check on one's stats shows no votes have been cast for that yarn in days. OK, it's nice, but rather like getting kissed by a maiden aunt.

You don't read/write a lot of T/I do you?

More seriously, it's likely they voted and posted their comment at the same time, but the latter took several days for review.

Dude... It's 750 words... And nothing in there suggested siblings in any way.

...and the follow on should have included Jenna giving birth to her son's cum...

The wording of this gives me a vision of some sci fi horror scene, like Gina Davis giving birth to a giant maggot in The Fly.

Not a unique experience here, but it still made me laugh and shake my head. Kwaian's comment is proof positive that you just can't keep everybody happy, even when you've pleased the most difficult of customers (26th). @PennyThompson

Comment is pretty normal. Not sure what is head-shakeable there.

On a different site, I got a DM from someone who enjoyed a story I posted, referenced my profile where I list the other kinks I write, and ended with

cannot wait for you’re[sic] next story

but... didn't actually follow?

Would have been a 5 star. The story line was very good and I enjoyed it. The reason it is a 3 is that you took God's name in vain.

This was left on a story about a father who is terminal and wants to leave his wife to their son and he takes his place, and he spends the story pushing the mother to seduce the son to make sure it happens

That was going to be a five but taking the lords name in vain was a deal breaker.

Yup.

Today was a day for the head shakers. I won't post it here, but someone left a three paragraph comment crapping on an LW story, then he proceeds to write a letter to one of the characters that's 1596 words long.

It's a smut story, get help.

Well, goddammit, what the holy fuck do they want from you? Jesus H. Christ...(God created sarcasm, too, you know.)

Just goes to show that readers here in general, don't judge your work on its merits but on whether they agreed with it, agreed with the kink, the plot, its morals, etc.

Makes it easy for most of us to dismiss a low score or a negative comment, "they're just being petty and judgmental," but when we get a 5 or a positive comment, that's never judgmental, ohhhh noooo, always meritous, "wow! thanks! My scores are going up, I'm getting better at writing!"

That's it, you're being reported. Not for your 90+ filthy pornographic stories but for using such foul language in regard to the holy of holies! Have to teach you disrespectful heathens a lesson

I find it very strange that they still gave you a 3 if they were so incensed that you literally broke one of the Ten Commandments and took in vain the name of their highest deity.

Them: "Beautiful story, 5 stars. But 2 points off for mocking the most important thing in my religion."
You: "Why not give it a 1, then?"
Them: "That would be downright unChristianly, gosh dangit!"

 

[TheLobster]

The one commandment you should definitely NOT break here is "Thou shalt not lust after thy neighbor's wife in vain."

Especially if you traffic in LW.

 

[WhiteTailDarkTip]

It's not recent, but this comment to a fantasy/romance left me wondering if they were on the same planet as me

"If only you were real. It’s not that I love long drawn out romantic encounters I’m dying of boredom-
With love always
JLS"

They still got off.

The 2-point docking was to atone for their guilt for still getting off to it. I grew up around this type. They push their guilt.onto others and take zero responsibility for their handiwork.

Jesus H. Christ.

H? I thought his middle name was Fuckin'.

Meh, that's easy. He might have saved his client's life, but did he make it better? If not, then that is indeed a 4-star doctor at best.

Jesus goddam- get it right- Christ

Wonder what I'd get if they knew I don't believe in god, any god.

Except of course for Great Cthulhu, that goes without saying

A glowing compliment from 26thNC!
Pretty sure that's one of the signs of the apocalypse.
