And I and some other authors DO NOT like to read
drool, drivel, water-plus-sugar stuff. What about at least
recommending the anific authors to use this new type of tags
as well? It is quite obvious that *deep inside* you are acting like
a mere(and *ridiculous*) "allmighty" _saviour of the bourgeois
system_.
Some ppl want to preserve the integrity of their useless and
anachronous stupid 19th-century morality;
I and other intelligent authors would appreciate very much to see our
very precious INTELLIGENCE duly respected.

COLLECTIVE *psychopathology* does not deserve any kind of
courtesy, period.

Let's be fair - she's at least trying to be on-topic for the group.
(Assuming you're reading this in rec.arts.anime.fandom, that is -
otherwise, she's still off-topic...)
