Here's A Crazy Review For Ya wolfychan April 25 2004, 18:47:08 UTC

I just got the frickin' wierdest review ever on my PotC self-insert experiment.

"Yes, Silk. I really trust ye. Abou' as far as I can throw ye. An' I can't. (Silk's a character quite a bit like Jack. 'E says "Trust me," all the time.)
Lightning"

First of all, I don't even need to tell you that there's no one named Silk in my fic. In fact, this review bears absolutely no relation to my fic whatsoever. But the wierd, baffling part is this: not only do I not have a Sue named Silk, neither does she. She has an impressive collection of Sues, true, but not one called Silk.

So... is it humanly possible to explain this review? Is she giving me a preview of a coming Sue? Is she shilling someone else's Sue? Is she having a conversation with an imaginary Sue in her head? What the hell is this?

I bet Silk is a movie or a book character that this reviewer has randomly related to Jack. Sure sounds like a Stu, though, not a Sue, because the reviewer says, "'E says..." Other than that, I have no idea. I can categorize, but analysis of the Suethor mind would take my brain down paths that could lead to its untimely demise.

*snicker* Did you notice that you also got a nice review from "Jack Sparrow's Only Love", the author of the Suicidal!Sue that Potcsues reviewed? ( http://www.fanfiction.net/read.php?storyid=1784717 ) Forget everyone else...at least you're in her good graces!

Ah. Shoulda looked there. Still doesn't explain why they thought it was remotely appropriate to leave as a review on someone's story, though.

Aha!

...You know, it's been years since I've read any David Eddings and I don't remember the Belgariad all that well, but I could have sworn that Silk is not, in fact, all that much like Jack beyond perhaps a few superficial similarities and a tendency to hold looser attitudes towards morals and ownership than general society does.

But then I'm using logic. Silly me.
