Big Name Fail: The -jawdrop- Adventures of msscribe and Her Sockpuppet Nanny.

I'm only on Part 7. But that's fascinating stuff. Required reading for all fandom, y/y?
Somewhat amusingly, Heidi and Cassandra Claire's circle at FA fed their anger into increased and oft-expressed hatred of the Harry/Ginny ship, and the GT admins fed theirs into increased and oft-expressed hatred of Draco Malfoy, a favorite character of both Heidi's and Cassie's.
I wonder what people outside of fandom would think...

According to msscribe, she was on a 12-week leave after a head injury in an auto accident, which ended by mid-February. At that time, she returned to her job as a backup singer, working regularly, though she sometimes got days off. However, in late March she was hospitalized due to delayed complications from the earlier accident, which must have been at least four months in the past by that time, nearly died, and suffered the symptom of being too weak on the right side of her body to dress herself (though not too weak to pick up her toddler with her right arm), necessitating an in-home babysitter/dresser who either drove for 45 minutes to get there either occasionally or three times a week, or lived with her, depending on which version you believe. However, between March 31 and May 23 -- and despite her severe health problems that did not allow her to dress herself -- Msscribe not only changed careers and got a new job, but she performed so well in her new job (in spite of the fact that she frequently posted on Live Journal during office hours -- though, oddly, her IP was never once logged from a work account) that she was rewarded with a lovely new office.
And that's not even a third of it.

(ETA: Wank in the comments! Oh, and I know that the above link may be old to you, but it was brought up in light of her latest appearance.)

Also, whenever I read "GT," I think of Gran Turismo, the insanely beautiful driving video game. I'm a different kind of geek.

But fandom can be good too! Check out [livejournal.com profile] fandom_rocks, a group of Supernatural fans who raise money for charity.

Now, to resume the jawdrop and continue with part 7...

Oh, and real life's been surprisingly busy this week. I might not get to do all I planned online, but I will read flist at least!
