Answering Queries from Willing Victims - II

Have stuck to adverbatim questions so readers can recognize their own. 


Q: Why do you keep leaving 'notes for global readers'?


Me: Hey, c'mon mate, allow me the dream. Besides, I really do have global readers (I hope).



Q: How do I leave a comment anonymously?



Me: Click on the option that says 'Anonymous' in the comment section. If you're not a complete stranger, do leave me a clue that it's you as it's a bit creepy not knowing who it is.


Q: I hate your blog. Is my name in it? I'm going to send you a legal notice.


Me: No, it isn't. No one knows it's you. No one even knows it's me, really. No one cares. So tell your lawyer to take the day off.


Q: I want to leave a comment about how bad it is, but I know you'll delete my comment.


Me: You again? Go ahead, do your worst. No, I won't delete your comments. I can take the bad with the good, buddy.


Q: On second thoughts, writing on your blog would give it importance it doesn't deserve. I wouldn't want to even acknowledge it or demean myself by writing on it.


Me: Sure.


Please note my level of self-deprecation - I've truly included all reader feedback sans editing.


Note to self: The fact that I find it necessary to point this out means that LL has rubbed off on me a bit. 


I have understandably hit writer's block after this critique. So, do bear with me while I recover.
