Keishon’s got a great post about her pet peeves about other readers. Funny as hell. I’m guilty of a few of them, what about you?
Go over and show her some love by leaving a nice, long-assed comment. She’ll love it, trust me. (g)
One of my pet peeves are reader bloggers who pretend they don’t read other blogs, but still manage to post information from the blogs that they ‘don’t’ read, without having the courtesy of linking the source. That shit’s been happening a lot recently.
I’ve no need to finger point, y’all know who you are.

My only complaint is readers who have no freaking sense of humor… You know the type, they are reviewing a Harlequin Presents and treat it like its freaking ‘War and Peace.’I mean who wanted to read War and Peace in the first place (hey, I just watched the movie, and that was a drag)… I read trashy smutty thrilling books. If its not fun, I don’t want to read it.
On the other hand, those reviews are pretty damn funny so…… scratch that…. I have no complaints. Nope, although I resemble several of Keishons list.(the long ass winded posts are def a problem of mine)

I am pretty sure that at one time or another, I have violated everyone on that list. I remember a specific occassion, early on in my internet life, saying on reviews message board at AAR, how much I hated the book that was a DIK and how I COULD NOT BELIEVE that it was a DIK.
I’m a bit chagrined now.
What is OTH.

Long-ass posts? moi? I think I’ve been guilty of pretty much all of them, even if some might not have made it to the screen, so to speak…
But in my defence, I actually like to read other people’s long-ass posts. Hopefully that makes it okay to inflict mine on the wider world.

Oh I am guilty of some, lol
The only thing that bothers me about other readers are the ones who are anon. If you are not proud of what you say, then don’t say it at all. It’s that simple.

EAP, your long-assed posts are amongst the most interesting, so I usually don’t mind reading what you have to say, lol!
Jane, OTH is One Tree Hill. I’m such a teenage wannabe. (g)
Chantal, anon readers don’t really bother me on here, cuz they’re generally well mannered, it’s the anons on some of the other websites like Conversations With Famous People who are scary. Those people are rabid.
