In Reply to: An APOLOGY TO KEVIN AND VINCENT..PLEASE DONT ERASE posted by AnOldFan on October 19, 1999 at 11:34:30:

However, as I said in the past, my original post was not supposed to come off as mean or harrassing or insulting and it obviously did.

---then you should learn to be more eloquent. We can only remark (or attack) an opinion that you state.

I tried to apologize soon afterward and was called a coward and told that I didn't stand up for what I believed in after I said it. That bothered me. Why? Because of the perception of what you thought I believed.

---See above

I went back and reread it now, over a month later and I can't believe I wrote something like that,

---So..you admit you were wrong?

I know that it bothered you deeply, and that you both took it very personally, or not,

---I believe it was probably the latter. But it is heartwarming to see how much you care.

I don't know anymore because I feel as though no matter what I say here now I will be condemned.

---as it has been proven...you should be....You cowardly freak.

I only say Kevin took it personally because a few days later he posted using a title "...some bones for you to chew on..." taking that quote directly from my post.

---How's that 17th reading of Catcher in the Rye going for you?

. I post a highly negative post and everyone started calling me a stalker and saying I am the kind of person you should fear.

---It wasn't the actual ne4gativity of the post that gave you yer scarlet letter...It was the fashion in which you said it...You seem to believe this is all on a personal level.....and lately yer not the only one.

Newsflash...it ain't.

Reality check.

You are on a web site post board. You DO NOT know Kevin Smith. Nor will you ever.Which is a good thing only because I don't think you could handle the realty.

Beyond his exceptional wit.....and his skill at writing.....he's the most normal and "boring" dude you'll ever meet. I mean this in the most complementary fashion (and no you dolts...I ain't sucking up.......I already got from Kevin all I ever wanted...My name in red). This web board i'm sure is a great source of anger, confusion, inspiration and joy for him.......Most of the stuff on here is at the very least...entertaining. The problem with a forum that let's you interact with such immediacy is just that.....It's instantaneous...you read something posted that pisses you off....you react to it...as any person would........I read those remarks.....and though I didn't feel Placentas boys remaks were anywhere near as bad as Hawkguy...They both were innappropriate ...and a little personal...for a fan site......If yer gonna criticizie.....A) Think why the hell you wanna do it on a FAN SITE.....tohat end? ...B) Have something insightful to say

This site is a rare gem kids.I don't think anybody should feel they can't have an opinion on something.....but treat it with the respect it deserves

However, the other 5000 or so posters that (please, this is not meant to insult,) kiss your ass ,(okay, it did, Fuck!!!) (See, I could erase this line and you will never see it, but I want you to realize that I am using that phrase as a lack of better words.)

---That's really.....ummmm...heavy!

. If I were you

---You're not him though.....go look in the mirror and repeat after me.....I am NOT Kevin Smith

I would be afraid of the people who surround me that do nothing but praise me and defend me from negative critism.

---On a fan site.....how odd for this to exist.

I don't take this anymore personal than you guys or they themselves do.

---Oh but you do

Anyway, why bother, this is only gonna get shitcanned anyway right? Once deemed a VA enemy always a VA enemy I guess?

---It's not about enemies...when i'm not on this board....I don't think about any of this shit..(Ok...sometimes I face a difficult situation in my life...and i think...what would smalls do)

Beyond that....I could give a fuck. Hopefully that attitude is shred by all

: Kev, we all know one thing, you are far far far from lazy. Don't let that eat away at you.

----Well Smitty......You can sleep tonight.

Remeber.....cut across the wrist horizonatally...not vertically

Yer Pal

P.S

Somebody who is so offended by "bad words" has chosen an odd man to be a fan of...no?
