we all read different stories, but some people's are more different than others'

Mildly strange experience of the day: receiving a review for a fic I wrote... five years ago? six? in a fandom I have since basically abandoned, in which the reviewer ignores the story at large in order to nitpick a minor issue, and in the process restates one of the themes of the story as if triumphantly proving to me that I have somehow missed

My biggest pet peeve with reviews is when someone reads a fic I wrote a long time ago and points out that part of it is "incorrect"...when the reason it's incorrect is because I wrote it before the relevant fact had been revealed in the series.

That is always intensely frustrating!
