Ok, let's talk about a few things. · 6:45pm Mar 23rd, 2016
Given that there seems to be a pretty good lull in my family emergency right now, and that I have the chance to relax, this seems like a pretty good time to go over a few things that happened yesterday that I probably need to acknowledge.
First of all, my most recent story 'Hope Sinks' is not only my most hated story ratinsgwise, but it also ended up in the bottom 10 stories of the day. Bottom 5 at one point I think. You know how that fucking feels??
...Pretty. Damn. Great.
If you didn't know this about me yet, know this now: I sometimes do write things just to make people mad. That's kind of the idea of a trollfic. The fact that this one succeeded so spectacularly actually makes me happy, and it was the kind of pick me up I needed yesterday.
I say this because I received quite a few messages trying to console me, telling me 'don't mind the haters' or that I shouldn't get distressed. Keep writing. Don't let them get to you. It's ok. As much as I appreciate that sentiment...I REALLY don't need it. The story being in the bottom 10 is a bit of an accomplishment for me, and I was looking forward to the downvotes the moment I put up that story. Besides, it was SO disliked, that someone wrote a fan sequel in which Anon was emotionally WRECKED by Scoots, and you know I LOVE anon torture. It ended up in popular too! Plus it sounds like another is on the way.
So, in summary, don't worry about me so much. My ego is not made of glass, and I really don't consider this much of a punch to the jaw anyway. It's all good, and I appreciate you folks being concerned about me, but the hate and downvotes usually just make me smile. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this, considering I think I'm in the minority here.
Now...onto a more...uncomfortable note.
WAT.
Are you fucking SERIOUS. How did this HAPPEN?! Dear god what did I do to deserve this! Well, apparently another side effect of my recent story is that I now have a group on here centered around me. I did not create this. I did not ask for this to be created. I had nothing to do with the creation of this. But well...it's here now, and there's not much to be done about it.
Holy fuck, is this my life now? Is this how the endtimes come? Even Flutterpriest doesn't have a fan group (someone get on this shit by the way) but it seems I do now. I guess...I'll...add my stories to it from now on? Also I can't help feeling like the title is comparing me to Hitler, which is actually probably a first for me, believe it or not. I also suppose I should probably say thank you, but...I don't...I....can't...
Can I just say fuck you instead? I'm better than that.
Anyway, if I have free time waiting around for things to happen, I might write another oneshit.
Lastly, I have a question for you:
Should I post a part of a 3 part story that I have never finished? It's a serious story, has some sads to it, and is Scoots-centric. The thing is, I may not ever finish this, but if there's a ton of interest I might suck it up and knock out the last two parts. So, should I post this, knowing it may never be finished?
Other than that, take care of yourselves, your families, and your mental health. All are valuable things.

Yeah that sounds about right.
Well, apparently you are literally worse than Hitler, then... Carry on.
3823019
...hooray.
3823020 I mean, being a German Jew, I'm kind of conflicted here... On one hand, half of my people were slaughtered, and you were worse than him... On the other, It was great industry time for the Fatherland, and a menace was removed from society until the pesky allies showed up...
So... I guess you'll be great for the economy, but bad for PR?
3823071
Heh, yeah that sounds about right.
wat?
you have a fan group now...wow. I'd grats you, but I'm not certain how I feel about it. Or how you feel about it, actually. Kinda like when someone left a comment on a story I saw, was a clop. "I feel like I'm reading one of Reykan's stories." I wasn't sure how to take that comment, still confused by it actually...

That's a pretty good way of putting it. It's...unsettling. But I'm not going to go tell anyone no, so I should probably get used to it and learn to back in it like the arrogant bastard I am.

Ok the first part with the consoling you I kinda understand because there are some fragile butterflowers on here and then there's you and it seems you love the hate and pissing your pants comedy so kudos.
The second part with the group is a big wtf for me....like really? You have your OWN fan group now!! WHAT THE ACTUAL HIV POSITIVE FUCK?
It was unexpected and promotes these injections of cancer, aids, comedy and feels you call stories to everyone....and I love it.
Keep on keepin on Pencil!
