| As a very busy web designer who finds herself receiving many questions and queries...I get sick of answering the same questions over and over again. Because I don't have the time, patience or energy to personally answer all of the questions that people ask me, I put together a list of snappy responses to some of the most frequently asked questions and forwarded comments. |
| 1. Are you a bitch?/You are a stupid bitch. |
| Uh...no...first, I am not stupid....I have a degree in English Literature/Classics. If I was stupid, I probably would not have been able to get into University, let alone graduate with a high GPA. Secondly, I am not a bitch. I'm sure that if you met me, you'd find me to be a nice, friendly, rational person. Besides, since I am not canine, there is no way that I can actually physically be a bitch. If you plan on calling me names in the future, please try something creative...bitch is a tad overused. (Note: Like most regular people, I have been known to bitch on occasion, but that still doesn't make me a certified bitch!) |
| 2. Do you know anything about Irish dance? |
| I took Irish dance lessons for many years when I was younger. The only reason I quit my dancing is because I have a floating knee cap and am no longer able to dance... something I'm not really bitter about, by the way. Through all my years of dance lessons, I was never told to rip off my dress for effect or wave my arms around in the air as if I was trying to pull-start a lawnmower. Likewise, my routines never contained Pete Townsend-esque arm circles... Whether or not I would be able to pull off such a shameless display of ego has nothing to do with this web site. Yes, I acknowledge that MF is a good dancer, HOWEVER, it is the technical part of the "brainchild of Flathead" that I dislike, not the dancing ability of anyone in the show. |
| 3. YOU SUCK!!! |
| How would you know??? |
| 4. Are you an alcoholic? |
| I merely call my observations drinking games to attract attention... it's not like I play this game every day!!! Do you??? |
| 5. You are a fat, ugly, lonely stupid cow! |
| Am I? Have you seen me? I am 5'9" tall, I weigh about 130 lb., and wear a size 8...do I sound fat to you? And to those of you speculating about my social life, yes, I am very happily married...this site is a pastime, not a lifestyle...and by no means the extent of my work. |
| 6. MF created RD... |
| And I invented the wheel......He contributed to the choreography of certain sequences, but he wasn't the sole creator. |
| 7. You are uneducated |
| See #1... I am certainly more educated -or at least more verbally skilled- than most of my detractors. |
| 8. Waste of time... don't you have anything better to do? |
| Once and for all... I only saw the video twice when I made this game up and posted it. It took me a maximum of three hours to type and upload the initial site -this includes bug checks, registration, etc.) Whether I saw the video after or not is inconsequential -it's good for a laugh! I add things periodically, when I'm bored... Otherwise I just check the MB and add when I feel the need. Besides, what does it matter to you? Are you the free time police?! |
| 9. Why not do something more positive? |
| I can't single-handedly make peace between Protestants and Catholics, besides... why should that be my responsibility. Maybe you should pay attention to the negative energy emanating from your own posts!!! For your information, I have many positive sites...you might want to check them out, as they are listed on the links page. |
| 10. Don't f***ing piss me off! |
| This site isn't personally directed towards you... if it offends you, don't come back!!! |
| 11. This site should be taken down!!! |
| Why? Because you don't like it? Who made you God? I am totally within my rights! And besides....I don't complain about Michael Flatley lust shrines. |
| 12. People who accuse my of flaming/spreading obscenities on other sites. |
| Did it ever occur to you that other people could choose the handle I started off with on this site... Erin is a very popular name. Likewise...there are enough people who hate me out there who want to wreck my life...one of them might feel like impersonating me. |
| 13. Why do you use "Erin"... she's a character in LotD. |
| Has the fact that Erin stands for Ireland completely eluded you??? If you haven't noticed, I am of Irish heritage, and know a lot of Irish myth and history, so unless you have an idea about the context of the culture... don't try and wax philosophy with me!! |
| 14. Comments on colour symbolism... |
| Every colour has positive and negative properties, except for black... so take it as you like! I always fall back on Moby Dick as a rebuttal for white=good... Are you as pure as the driven snow??? |
| 15. Who do I think I am???? |
| I make the assumption that I am just a person...why put labels on anything? |
| 16. Lick any part of my anatomy! |
| Does this have to be substantiated by a proper response? |
| 17. Any comments about my mother... |
| You have no right to voice your personal opinions... whether my mother is a bitch or not is inconsequential, so leave her out of it, she has nothing to do with this site! |
| 18. Threats to my person |
| See number 16 for my response... |
| 19. MF is sexy! and the like... |
| That's a valid opinion, and you're welcome to hold it. Just because I don't agree with you, it's no reason for you to persecute me. |
| 20. MF is GOD! |
| Put and end to cults!!! Did no one learn from the Heaven's Gate experience. Actually.... though you would all be sadly missed... |
| 21. Get off the internet and get a life |
| Why do people think I spend my entire life online...au contraire. I'm only online about 20 min a day when I'm not doing a web contract...if you don't believe me, ask my ISP for my login records... I have better things to do than waste time hanging out on the net...you should too. |
| 22. Who the Hell are you, anyway?! |
