And dad's opinion of FanLib

[icarus]

I sent all the information on FanLib to my father. He says:

I stand by my last assertion: they are stupid and arrogant. And they
should be boiled in oil. Why don't you write an op-ed piece for the New
York Times?



Ah. I like my family.

Arrogant says it all.

Stupid, I keep going back and forth on. I know that saying about "Don't ascribe to unadulterated evil that which can be explained by stupidity" or whatever, but I just can't be sure.

Stupid, well, yeah I think they are. Based on that marketing brochure. I don't like them, and I'm going to be going back to their site every now and then to take its pulse.

Oh good! I think I like your family, too, lol!

Did he have an opinion on the whole BBC link to Jenkins link to you thing? Because in terms of journalistic reach (albeit unintended), you have to admit that's pretty damn cool. *g*

It's totally cool. I was jazzed at the same time I was thinking... oh, shit.

[inkscribe.livejournal.com]

*nods* Yes, I can understand both feelings. So on the one hand, here's a *kermitflail* of happiness for you. On the other? Here's a *hug* of commiseration.

Any way you slice it though, congratulations. :-)

Your dad is awesome. No one says boil them anymore. Pity.

[icarusancalion.livejournal.com]

Hee. Dad keeps the traditions alive.

Why don't you write an op-ed piece for the New York Times?

Yes, why don't you.

Is this even in the range that would interest the Times?
