I just discovered on some very weird site that keeps linking to me (and which obviously is not getting a linkback from me) that I’m 19 years old, have a brother who likes anime, and go to a community college. I also have a friend who works at a fitness club. And I haven’t lost any weight in the past month.
Of course, it’s absolutely true I haven’t lost any weight in the past month, so these guys are right about something.
I wouldn’t mind being all of these other things they impute to me either. I mean, who doesn’t want a brother with an anime collection?
There is, of course, a competing version of events in which I live and work in New York. Why New York, of all places, you’ll ask. Fans project their innermost dreams of a fabulous life onto their idol, hence New York. Sadly, though, their fantasies don’t extend beyond New York.
Those idiots also collect my pictures and compare them to pictures of other women to see if I’m them. Their familiarity with my posts is impressive. They remember them better than I do, which is not surprising because this is what fans do. They try to live their idol’s life vicariously for total lack of their own.
It’s kind of cute to be so idolized by a bunch of complete strangers.
Jokes aside, though, it’s sad that so many people are so pathetic, miserable, and lonely. No, Freud’s work hasn’t nearly been completed yet.
P.S. According to the obsessed ugly little fans at the creeepazoid website, I also used to work at York University in Toronto. 🙂 The stupid little idiots are too priceless.

Hi, Anonymous. 🙂 I do anger better than anybody else I know. I do it like a form of art. 🙂 But here I need some real substance to get angry.

Hi Clarissa,
Love your blog 🙂 It’s great. Just out of curiousity, in this latest blog entry when you say “Their familiarity with my posts is impressive. They remember them better than I do.”, what posts are you actually referring to? It seems clear you’re referring to something on this “weird” site, correct? So you’ve posted on that site before? What did you post about? WIthout knowing the actual site, It’d just be helpful to have some context, so we can grasp the true depth of the idiocy of these pathetic, miserable losers. I know we could never really understand, but at least we can get an idea, so we can feel sorry for them, right? And hopefully we’ll never accidentally stumble upon them ourselves!
Anyway thanks for clearing that up. Appreciate it, and keep up the great work on here!
Yours,

No, my friend, I’ve never posted on the “weird site” before. I only know it exists because my stat counter tells me that I get many visits from there. I have no idea who your 230 or 203 commenter is. But I’m not them. I never registered on your site nor ever posted there. I’m a very popular blogger and I have neither time nor energy to register anywhere. I don’t even have a Facebook page because being a popular blogger + having a full-time job and a family is too much as it as at my advanced age. 🙂
So could you please tell your comrades that I am, indeed, 35 years old. I am also a university professor. And I also never left any posts on your resource. I will be very grateful if you can transmit that message for me.

I will say that I’m still a bit confused though, you did say that the pathetic losers on that weird site have an impressive memory of your posts, and remember them better than you do. Now you’re saying you’ve never posted there. Confusion! Well, I’m sure there’s a logical explanation for that. Considering you’ve never posted or registered there, and only learned of its existence earlier this evening (the first time your site was linked there), you sure do seem to know a lot about the people over there, based on one thread. This is why I enjoy your blog, you’re so smart.
Of course I cannot trasmit any message since I don’t know the site you’re referring to, which is why I asked. Sounds like it’s full of some real despicable losers though, I hope I never find it! Why would they make up such stuff about you, with no good reason? Like saying you are from New York, only someone who is pathetic and lonely would say something like that you you. I’d be quite bothered if someone mistakingly said that about me too. It doesn’t seem like a very good way to treat someone you’re are a fan of, or idolize.
Anyway, have a great night. Look forward to reading more from you, thanks for welcoming me here.
