Poppy? Are you lurking? How are you doing? Talk to us Meredith!

Funny, are all of your names Meredith? Or can you just not read? If I had her
email address, I would have used it, but I don't, so I posted a message to her.
Unless your name is Meredith, I don't see why you're answering my question to
her.

Actually, that's my drag name.

Obviously we can read. We responded didn't we? Unless you assume our
seeing eye dogs helped us.

Hmm, I suspect when you post to a "public" newgroup, you should assume
that people are likely to respond. But that would require a modicum of
intelligence, huh?

Cuz we're funny like that. You posted to a public newsgroup and some responded,
like you expected anything different. And by the way, if you really were serious
about contacting her you would have tried a little harder. It took me about, oh, 1
minute to find her email on dejanews. So go there, type in alt.books.poppy-z-brite
and Meredith Modzelewski and you too can find what it is you seem to want.
Otherwise, dont get bitchy when we respond to a public post.

Okay, let's try this, then...

*I* responded to what seemed like a plea to bring the ol' Human Spellchecker
back into the fold for your own edification and to endorse your
own...particular...agenda in the newsgroup, since this has to be the first
time I've seen any number of ingracious chuckleheads actually organized for
any amount of time. I'm sure you'd love to see Meredith post again so you
don't feel so all alone in here, so you can affirm the rigid humorlessness
you've graced us with as of late. But she doesn't appear to be here. Which
means you *could* play nice and civil with the people who
*are* here, persistence being half the battle, face up to the fact that you
made a bad fucking impression on a number of people here and try not to
alienate anyone else with any group criticism for awhile and bank on the fact
that we're pretty forgiving and tolerant (since we can't *force* you to
leave). It looked to me like someone looking over their shoulder, scared,
wondering why all of a sudden nobody had their back anymore. And you aren't
helping any by insulting people who are just pointing out the obvious. Please
rethink this. This isn't a factionalist thing, no matter how much you might
hope for the affirmation of numbers.

Oh, so in all your massive brain, you never thought to go back and find her
post? Or don't you know how that works? Heh, call AOL, they'll lend you a hand.

I was *just* going to to say that. But at least I waited
long enough for a guy with a kick-ass quote (I have been
sucked into jthm, tool) to jump out of the shadows. Just
letting you know I am glad to have been here to read one of
those yearly posts & hope to be able to stick around to get
the next one. :)

Because, as you whining newbies love to point out, this is a public
forum...dipshit...and you could always go look for her e-mail address at
dejanews, but that would be too not-annoying for you...

So if someone posts, "Hey asshole, where did you run to?" naturally everyone
with a keyboard and an ego must therefore reply, just because, hey, everybody's
gotta put their two cents in.

smoking cigarettes. She's addicted.

Yours must be a small, sad existence, and I for one will sleep better at night
knowing that there are people like you in the world that I am far superior to

You remind me of my friend Teardrop. Heck you could say "beef jerky" and
she'd start to bounce. She's really cute though. Her bounciness earned her
the nick name Bubbles. Oh, but who wouldn't bounce when faced with a ton of
college boys. My intended is planning to go back to school to become an RN
or a MA. <sigh> I love him dearly. He's such a Vanilla Boy though. I plan
to corrupt him anyway. I told him once a few months back that some day I'd
put a whip in his hand and expect him to use it. <grin> He of course denies
that he would....

Anyone got any suggestions on how to open his mind a little??

HEY! Sounds just like my job! (from which I'm posting at this very moment :-)
However I work at an engineering collage and all the boys are nerdy and the
few girls look so young... I mean like children... (my cut off age is 25,
it's 25! 25, no lower then 25. I mean it! 25... Well maybe just one huh? What
could come of that? NO NO! 25 don't be silly. Ok maybe 24 but that's it! I

going to go back to school. Im too tired to go into any details and Im
sure youll could care less, but thanks for being so nice and inquiring

Tie him down and whip him good? Then I dont think he'd have any probs taking
that whip and using it well.

Yep, great quote for someone who obviously has no sense of shame. You
came here, bitched, insulted and have now been insulted by everyone
including Poppy's husband, and yet here you are. And as far as I can
tell, you have yet to make an on-topic appearance. I feel so relieved at
having just downloaded a newsreader with a killfile.

Ok, I kinda wish you would start naming names instead of being rude and
generalizing and grouping the whole population in your negative remarks. This is
more annoying than anything else and I, for one, am tired of being lumped in to
such a wide generalization when Ive been nothing but respectful and shit with most
of the bullshit you and other newbies have recently shoveled into the ng.

Almost as sad as someone who finds it necessary to send corrected copies of
published books back to the authors and publishers.

So, do you go to cocktail parties, insult everyone there and then say "nope,
not leaving, here to drink and eat little finger sandwiches?"

You seem to completely ignore the simple fact that there is a interpersonal or
social component to this newsgroup. If people don't like you, they're going to
smack you around, and eventually, all you'll able to post are your "yoo-hoo,
Meredith? Anyone who doesn't think I'm an idiot?" posts. Simple as that.
You've offended some folks and will have to deal with that. Don't think it's
anything else, it isn't.

I, for one, take great pleasure in mocking those I dislike. It makes me all
warm and fuzzy, helps me sleep at night, gives me a shiny, glossy coat and
gives me more of a sense of purpose than sniping at whole groups of people
over spelling would.

Well, Rocky ain't yer darlin, and see, when somebody comes in and makes an ass
of themselves, then commences to sucking up so loud you can hear it from Dallas
to Delaware, I call that back-pedalling.
By the way, I was glad to see you changed that insipid personal quote in your
member profile. The day after I read it, I was sitting at my cousin's daycare,
waiting for her to wash the paint off her face, when my eyes fell on your
source. I laughed so hard the children took the long way around me. Now I see
how you have all that free time to correct published books and contact the
authors. Soon, you can get books without pictures, and think of all the words
you can proofread then.

All I've ever done is spoken my mind, as do you. Notice though, that I have
never made a *personal* attack on ANYONE. You don't seem to have that sense of
common decency. I was not sucking up. Nor have I ever said anything
personally to Klaudia that I would require apologies. I merely commented that
it is a rare gift to find a job that makes you feel bouncy. I stand by that
remark.

As for the "insipid" quote, I have no idea what you're talking about. If you
care to illuminate your attack upon my quote further, please do so.

I have only ever treated the group like the group treats others. You all have
a grand witty sense of cruelty. You dish it out but you can't take it. I find

Well, let's call that spade a spade, shall we? Let's call your attacks
*multi-personal.*

Here's the thing. You tell us you're here to stay cuz you love Poppy's work.
So far, not one post has been on topic. You think we forget? Nope. You think
you can insult and try and tell everyone how to behave, and play mom and think
we roll over cuz you offer to scratch somebody's belly? Nope. If anyone can't
take the heat, it would appear to be you, or should I say, you can tell us to
play nice and post on topic and tell us we aren't funny, and need an enema, but
when someone presents you with your own argument, you want to play Mother

>>You think

I can scratch my own belly, thank you, and I'm sure you can scratch yours. I
find it amusing you are now pointing the finger at *me* about "on-topic." I
read the FAQ. Topics are optional, loosely organized around Poppy's work.
Perhaps my plea that we return to Poppy-related material was reflective of a
weariness of all this hatefulness. I'm still weary of it.

Since we all agree we're here for Poppy, and we talk about other things too, I
chalk all of the extra-curricular conversations to the fact that we're awaiting
new material, and that some of you just plain enjoy being mean. That's cool.
Like I said before, whatever gets you through the night.

And, since I have been "scolded" by you... (now who's "Mom,") I offer you this:

I don't have a favourite Poppy book. Each book I've read had some quality that
the others didn't... Poppy's books have evolved, and while "Lost Souls?" was
excellent, I found Lazarus Heart more cutting and concise, and it left me
wishing it were a book three times its present length. (Instead, out of
desperation, I just read it three times.)

As has been discussed at length here on the group, Poppy's inclusion of male
homosexuality and other gender issues and delights, are some of the things that
bring me back to her work again and again. I adore the fact that she has been
quoted as saying, "I'm a gay man in a woman's body." I also was impressed that
someone mentioned enjoying that she did not say she was "trapped" in that body.
I enjoy that fact as well.

Like many here, I found Poppy's works to be a refreshing change from Anne
Rice's drivel, and Clive Barkers endless chapters and sequels... thanks to
Poppy and the Splatterpunks books, I'm no longer chugging along through Barker
and forcing myself to read more housewife pap that passes as "erotic horror."
I'll always have a soft spot for Clive Barker, just because Pinhead came from
his pen and his soul; but as long as Poppy is writing, Clive had better sleep
with his skates on.

In closing Rocky, for me it's not about being right, or being liked. I just
prefer a bit of dignity and decency, and I think I've done a fair job of
reflecting some of you to yourselves.
You have no idea why I changed my "nick" and you never will. It's simply not
worth discussing and not that big of a deal. Why that bothers you, I can't
imagine. If I change it again, so be it. I change my clothes quite a bit too,
just to suit my fancy.
So... there you have it. An on-topic post, with a bit of personal opinion and
commentary added in; 'just what the newsgroup is all about. It's kind of fun,
really.

Sorry Cliff. Ya might toss and turn sometimes. 'Wrong on all counts. It
matters not that you wish me ill. A few good enemies makes a person strong.
Bim skala bim to you too! Hex, mex, and a bag of soot.

You wish me ill and say I must have a sad, small existence, and yet, if you go
back and look through your own posts, you spend a horrendous amount of time
being rude. Like just now. I suppose it can be said that at least you're good
at it. However, you yourself then say you're "all bark and no bite."

You say I have no sense that the newsgroup is a social community, (or
however-that-was you worded it.) Wrong. *I* am aware that the newsgroup is a
public forum. You act as if it is a private club, that introductions must be
made, and that if the "in crowd" says you're okay, then goodie, you're liked
and everything is giddy and fine. That may have worked for you all for a
while, but it's apparently causing some discomfort at the moment.
That's understandable. However, as Poppy's popularity increases, (as surely
it will!) you may find more people coming here who have their own ideas, and do
not wish to be part of the cozy- club. They might not be as much a "thorn in
your side" as I, but the fact is, just as not everyone in the world likes me,
(especially you,) not everyone in the world will like you, or the next guy, or
the next guy, and so on. ('Twould be a rather boring Evan Dando world if we
did all adore one another, wouldn't you say?)
I haven't even decided if I like you or not. I don't even know you. I do
recall a few letters between you and I that were fairly enjoyable. I'll say
this; it seems that when you decide you like someone you're a loyal and
entertaining friend. When you decide you don't like someone, you're as vicious
as you are loyal. Pretty cool I'd say, even though I'm on the "wrong" side of
it. You act nobly to people you feel deserve it, and cruelly to people you
despise. That's a trait I happen to think is pretty admirable, in a "Lex
Talionis" sort of way, and no, that's not kissing up; I'm just saying hey,
how you act makes sense to me... even though I also think sometimes you decide
too soon who deserves your wrath, and who deserves your loyalty and friendship.
As for me, well, hello Cliff, your hatred makes no difference in my life, as
my blathering makes none in yours, nor in anyone else's on this group.
I occasionally learn some new info. on Poppy, and find joyful passages which
brighten my days a little, (Hercules Erection Strap, for instance,) so the
group itself is not a loss; thus, no matter what you come up with to
humiliate me, insult me, frighten me, taunt me, and so on... I'll still be
here.
I can now picture you as a combination of Woody Allen and Mickey Mouse and
realize that for whatever reason you choose to do so, it empowers you or
pleases you to attack me. As long as you're not sending bombs via post, go for
it.

You see Klaudia, the thing is, people name themselves by their responses. That
much seems pretty clear.

"Shoving things into the newsgroup"?

Oh that I weilded such power. I'd shove in some discussions of art and
literature and wow, that word "shove" coupled with "in" is kinda cool, isn't
it? 'Looks like to me the group is perking along just fine... an explosion
here and there... a time of settling, another explosion... it's just like any
other newsgroup, only, hey, we get to talk about a damned good writer instead
of say... world news tonight.

We're all stubborn and we're all... erm... whatever it is we are. I'd say hey,
try to enjoy it and as Chris has suggested to me, it's a newsgroup; don't take
it personally and don't let it get to you.
However, there are human beings behind each of these posts... (or at least I
*think* that's a safe assumption,) and one reason I *don't* "name names" is
because well, I was being stupid and trying to make a point. 'Trying to defend
people I didn't even know, from people I didn't even know. So sue me. I'm so
tired of all this meanness.
At the risk of sounding like Rodney King, god, can we PLEASE JUST STOP
THIS?!?!?!?!?!?
I'm not going to leave the group, so that suggestion is just plain OUT.
Sucking... who's was it? yours Klaude?'s strap-on might be an interesting
option, if it'll settle things a bit. I don't know. I just got tired of
seeing you guys be mean to Meredith, so I decided I'd be mean back. Stupid me.
Meredith is a big girl. She can take care of herself.
I pick up roadkill and bury it when I can, too. (And no Meredith, I'm not
calling you roadkill.) I'm a god-damned sentimental fool. I was trying to show
you all how ugly your meanness was. Hah. Now I'm in too deep. I stared too
long into the abyss. Who am I to show any of you a damned thing anway? I may
be old enough to be your Mama, but hey, I bet you don't listen to *her* all the
time, either.
I never thought I'd say this, but god-dammit, if it'll stop this, I'M SORRY.
I WAS WRONG. IT WAS NONE OF MY BUSINESS AND I WAS BUTTING IN WHERE I SHOULDN'T
EVEN HAVE BEEN. I do NOT come here to be liked, but sweet jesus on a
half-shell, this vitriol isn't even amusing anymore. Good people are draining
each other of energy they need for other things; myself included. Cliff
wishing me ill? Lord, how vile. Cliff, who reads Preacher and listens to
Burzum and whom I once asked if he'd marry me. My good intentions created all
of this. The road to hell etc. I'm sorry. If it will stop all this (do I

Well then, shut the fuck up :-) Actually, I believe his point was that you bitched about
ontopic, then said nary a word but criticisms. Ah well, lucky for me, I ought to thave

This makes no sense, he clearly told you he sleeps well.

Bitch takes too much prozac....reads too many I'm Alright books for her own good, and
can't see past her own grossly overblown impression of herself. I'm not much interested
in the Rodney King approach, but I sure know how to ignore. What she doesn't realize is,
that with her fine little world of posts, she now has noone willing to look at her
opinion with any more than a jaundiced eye.

No, not at all, you see, there are lots of folks here we don't like
personally, but because it's not a private club, they post and share and we are
nice to them because they aren't assholes. There *is* a diff, but I think you
need not to see that to keep your head up. That's okay tho, cuz most of us are
done wih your bellyaching. It's just a place to post, and while lots of us
won't be reading yours, nobody said you couldn't keep pushing that send button.

So, I'm not a freak then, because that happens to me all the

He said "Can't we all just get along." But I get your point. Don't be to
hard on yourself, and don't be so hard on everyone else. Everyone's here b/c
they like Ms. Brite's work. (Except that tard-o that keeps slamming my fav
pzb book) And even if some of us don't like what you say, as long as you
substantiate those opinions in a semi-intellegent fashion, you're okay. Of
course be ready for others to disagree. Some will, and some won't. Isn't
that what this ng is all about anyway?

Okay, and I apologize for calling "Mr. Poppy Z. Brite sucks" a tard-o A-hole,
but he's beginning to annoy me.

I DID!!!

On our first date even. We're both writers so we decided that the first
time we met in person we should do it in one of the Barnes & Noble
coffee shops. It just seemed appropriate. I had just started reading
EC and was raving about it. I showed it to him and he expressed great
interest in reading her work. But, I insisted that he start with LS and
work his way up. I have this thing about reading books in the order
they were published. Anyway. I looked in Barnes & Noble and had no
luck Turns out neither he or I could ever pass up a book store. We
stopped in at B Dalton on our way to the movie theater. Still no luck.
Both times he was at the magazines so he had no clue what I was doing.
I finally struck gold at Shinders and bought it for him.

Thanks for the suggestion though. I'm already working on it. ;>

You also have to remember that most schools are dealing with federal money
and *that* *always* makes things hard. But yeah, Im gonna do my best cuz I
was a student for four years and the only way I was in anyway going to get
an education was to get Financial Aid and pay for it myself. So I know what
these students go through and I know what the workers go through. And its
hell sometimes.

On a sort of related note. (Okay, not really but your post
reminded me of it): Yesterday I listened to a speech by the founder of
Amazon.com, broadcast on NPR. He said that in the early days they used to
hold their meetings with suppliers and UPS reps in Barnes and Noble
coffeeshops because they didn't want them to see the overcrowded garage
they operated out of, with it's big orange extension cords drawing all
the available power from the house it was attached to. Kinda ironic and
interesting. He said he still buys his own books there and at an
independant store in his town, just 'cause.

Gee, Im a wench eh? *g* Did I mention, the other boi has pale skin, light brown hair and the
bluest eyes youve ever seen? I was lucky when I met him 7 yrs ago and Im still lucky to this
day.

I always wanted green eyes too. I have dark brown eyes and I hated them growing up. I wanted
dark hair and green eyes and I had the dark hair part down. But now, I wouldnt give up my
eye color for anything and I count them in the few traits I like about myself. Anyway, Im
rambling.

Oh I think the Barnes and Noble coffee shops are a great idea. We have on
GIANT B&N in Rosevill. It's full of tables, chairs, couches even. All kinds
of comfortable places to read. It's like a combonation Bookstore, Coffee
Shop, Lybrary, and Someone's Living Room.

I think its wonderful.

To this day whenever he and I meet Down Town for whatever reasn. We always
hook up at that B&N.

I have to agree with you. But with me it's about my hair. I've always wanted (don't laugh now)
Metallic Silver hair. My hair right now is a very healthy ash blonde. And I wouldn't give it
up for the world (it's 3 feet long) But I am happy to announce that I have two gray hairs and
they seem to be awfully silvery. I'm hoping to stress myself out enough to get more. <g>

Yup, may hair is another trait I like about myself. Its almost 40 inches long again and all one
length for once and I take better care of it than I do myself.

I've always wanted Violet eyes, like Elizabeth Taylor but I've always had

I am really sure you're kidding, but on the off chance you're not, why would

*aren't* doing it for anyone but yourself, but you really should feel them

Don't do the breast thing! Please please please! It may be just me but I'd
rather have a girl with small real breasts then large fake ones. Sure they're
bigger and IF you get a good $$doctor$$ they look good but they don't feel
like breasts. I "knew" a girl with fake breasts (and no I didn't sleep with
her because of them...). A horrible but accurate way to describe them is like
an over stuffed bag. Breasts are supposed to be soft and bouncy and fun to
hold. Fake breasts are none of the above.

We were discussing fake boobies in #missing_mile last night...what a
coincidence...anyway...I don't understand these women who get boobies
three times the size of their own head...boobies, either fake or real,
should fit the person's frame...and if a woman wants to get her boobies
enhanced to fit her frame, I consider it corrective surgery...but women
with boobs that would give the Jolly Green Giant a back ache just look
trashy...

Me too. Altho she wasn't my gf, she was so happy and proud of her $6000
surgery that almost anyone could touch them. Hey, what can I say, I was 17... .

I compared it to a soccer ball covered in foam rubber. And you prolly came too
late for this, but right after they have the implants put in? The skin hurts
from the stretching and you have to rub them with cocoa butter and pack them in
ice.
