I... know that I don't have a personal beef with him. I know that he was an asshole to people on my flist. And I normally don't care about what he says, because, quite frankly, he makes it obvious that he is an ass. But this is just so... even if I don't have a personal beef with him, he comes across as an ass in this review and it is annoying. And he shamelessly pimps his own tactician fic again (You probably know by now who I mean).

Sigh.

I didn't think Enilas's review was so bad...until I got to the pimping his own 'fic part.

On one hand, if he genuinely believes his 'fic to be good... I guess it makes sense? But on the other hand, that's a really egotistical thing to do. I would never pimp my own stuff as "How to write [insert character or type of 'fic here] right". :/

I mean, if he had stopped there, I wouldn't have said anything. But that pimping? So shameless that, well, we have a nice word in German which expresses my feelings; "fremdschämen", which means feeling ashamed of an action of another person in that person´s stead. So someone does something so embarrassing and doesn't notice it that you yourself feel the embarrassement that that person should feel. Damn you, English and your inability to create words just like that. (That's why I love German so much <3)

This is why I love Telugu so much. And being (somewhat) bi-lingual.

(Though sometimes I don't know the translations. So.)
