Until you see a post from _TOR_BOOKS_ that says that he's dead, closely
followed by an offer to buy a special limited edition of the books which
will only be in print for a limited period of time for the special price of
$ 199,95 / volume, consider the man alive and kickin'.

Ironically enough, there was a "special version" of PoD with "unknown binding"
for $200.00 on amazon.com. Yikes.

Because many bookstore clerks, like many of those people who listen to

Andrea? Where is your bookstore people rant? Now would be a good time
for it, I think...
Fox, or whatever the hell your name is, most bookstore people are stupid.
Plain and simple. If a bookstore clerk tells you RJ is dead, don't
believe it.
If, however, you find banner headlines at http://www.tor.com or a post
here from Teresa Nielsen Hayden or Patrick Nielsen Hayden (of TOR Books)
announcing that he's dead, you can believe those.
Chances are, we'll hear it before anyone else will.

No. Fox's bookstore clerk is almost certainly not right.
First, the man is not almost ninety, by any reasonable stretch of the
phrase. Second, for Chrissakes, if the man died it's almost certain
that something would appear at Tor's fucking web site, and that a Tor
rep (a real one) would make a grieved announcement RIGHT HERE.

The other day at a chain bookstore when I was picking up a Pratchett book
(Jingo) the clerk commented on the fact that she'd just shelved those
books that day. We talked a little about sci-fi and I aksed her if she
had taken up the Wheel of Time books. A paraphrase of her reply:
"I was going to but then I heard he was really sick."
When I informed her that I've read time and again about this little lie
cropping up and that it has never even been remotely true she stated that
her boyfriend who works at another book store heard it from his
management.
All it really takes is one person high enough up the mngmt chain to fall
for the lie and stuff like this will keep cropping up.
I don't follow the group to closely these days and I may have missed it,
anyone know which chain is propagating this troll?

Yeah yeah yeah.
Everybody always wants to talk to Jesus.
You get your assed nailed to a tree once...*once* a couple a thousand or
so years ago and you're automatically God's fair-haired boy...the man in

Didn't even have to stay up there all _that_ fuckin' long, either. And by

Indeed the group's lovely cuddly fluffy-bunny is speaking from
experience. AOL is _not_ cuddly, fluffy, or lovely. In any way
imaginable. I believe there are particular reasons Bunnytshens
must stay with AOL. This creates a great inconvenience for any
person wishing to kill-file aol.com entire. To be fair, others
(just a few) from AOL are clueful posters, so the burden isn't
entirely on him. However, I think it would be a good thing for
Rushfan to switch to a real ISP ASAP, if only to save him some
brain-ache.

So?

said not one word to you in the past?

About once a year, or more often, some doofus posts a rumor that they
heard RJ was dying or dead. It gets tiring after the first few times.

Sincerity is the key. Once you can fake that, you've got it made.

Oh, yes, sir! Right away, sir! Whatever you wish, sir!
We'll make sure not to ever express dislike for something ever again, so
as not to offend your ever-so-delicate sensibilities.
Oh, BTW, you mispelled "off", and we really don't care whether or not you
like anime.

If you're really a fan of Japanese cartoons you should put bigger

Actually, according to tradition, anime freaks disdain the use of the
standard horizontal emoticons, instead using the more radical vertical
ones, such as: ^_^ ^_- >_< -_- O_o
It's all a futile attempt on the part of online anime fans to
differentiate themselves from the rest of the internet (as if watching
pornographic cartoons with multitudes of violence and bad hair didn't
differentiate them enough).
Happy to help,

P.S. If you smoke, then forget it. I'm highly allergic, and it would be no
fun if I died of an asthma/allergy attack before we started. And if you are
not a female then just forget that I posted anything, I only like females.
Just out of curiosity, who is Sturch Hartsen?

It's no fun if you give it awaaaay. What am I supposed to do now?
Can't pick on newbies, can't pick on otaku...
What's left? Texans? That's no fun....

Just ignore them. It's not so much anime-bashing as trolling for
overly excitable otaku.
