Yes, I've been on fanstory for some years, and from a reasonably bright beginning I've experienced a load of varying levels, from one star, extending to 6 star awards, and have got used to the criticism, some had no idea what they were talking but were on a mission, well done Dennis, thank you dear friend, blessings Roy

Comment from Jay Squires
This was a hoot from beginning to end ... and it ended too soon. Your humor takes an ironic slice or two off not just a few pompous scribes' hide. I refuse to say I'm one of them. You can't make me. I don't know how long you've been on FanStory, but sooner or later you might trip over one of my pieces. I hope it doesn't confuse your orientation or in any way bruise you. You are a breath of fresh air in a peach orchard in September.

Thanks Jay. I?ve been on FS quite a while and I remember your name. I just read your tower piece and it seems to be way over my head. That?s an uncomfortable feeling because I try very hard to get meanings, innuendos, nuances etc.
Could you please tell me what you were writing about in the tower piece? Thanks and thank you for your kind review of this one. Dennis

Hi-ya Dennis. I hope you weren't expecting something profound. It's hard to squeeze profundity into a 70-word container. It was simply the story of a young man (me) in the 50s, trying to convince himself he was doing his civil duty looking for unidentified flying objects when his real intent was waiting to hear his request being made on the local radio station. There was really no Kay. He was simply trying to get the announcer to spell out a famous 4-letter word without realizing it. I'll help you: iF yoU see Kay ... tell her I love her. Say the first part of that sentence out loud. In reality, the announcer did say it and didn't realize it until a lot of listeners called in, and then the announcer called me back and chewed me out.
So much for civil responsibility.
If you had understood it at the first reading, you would have been one out of 5 who got it out of nearly 30 reviwers.

Thanks Jay!

Priceless. As I recall, you've written similar satirical pieces on reviews--as have I and many--no shortage of fodder--I've seen and had some real doozies. I love your collection!

Hi Dennis,
I am on meds right now from my knee surgery. I think I'm commenting on your post, but I might be just hallucinating. If it was your post, congratulations, it's very funny. If in fact it's mine, I hope that you can read my mind and get a good laugh. Either way, one of us deserves a six.
Have a blessed evening.
Tom

Float a lot, do you Tom?? You're not THE Tom of FanStory are you?
Thanks for thinking my stuff is great while you're high. I take it before you come down. Hope your knee heals well, God bless, Dennis

Hi Dennis-
No, no I'm not THAT Tom. I'm just an ordinary Tom. No I don't do anything other than what is prescribed, and I almost didn't take the pain pills I got, but I've never felt such pain before, so I'm in Funny Boy land right now.

Is today you had the surgery? I have friends who have had much pain after knee replacement. It makes me feel better that I didn't work harder when I was younger like they did.
Hope your pain abates friend!

No, I had it on Friday, but I'm trying to get every last ounce of sympathy I can wring out of people. That sucker really, really hurts. Thanks for the laugh, I think laughter is still the best medicine, at least until you're trying to get out of bed to pee and can't because of the pain. Then you get to be the subject of others mirth.

Sorry buddy!
Comment from MissMerri
I love this!! I am so glad you revived it because I did not see it the first time and really, really enjoyed it this evening. I am not on any meds, so I'm quite sane as I say this is a six-star post if ever I saw one, and thank you very much for the 14 points and 90 cents. Now, I just want to float for awhile. (Can you instruct me how to do that?) MM

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
Haha, what a fun post. We all need more fun and to laugh more. Your list of 'reasons' for reviews/ratings is hilariously. The ones about punctuation are the best, but the mall one is close behind. Thanks for the laugh. I hope my review doesn't have any of those issues listed.
Respectfully, Jan

Comment from Sally Carter
Hahahaaaa.... I love this! And I reckon I have seen at least 50% of those comments somewhere or other over the last three years. Very, very well done. I laughed out loud in several places. I think if I had to choose a favourite, it would be point number 9. Brilliant.
I found my way to this because you put something on my profile saying no one had commented on your video clip - but when I went to your profile there was no clip. So what else was there to do but look at your work! Definitely a little amble worth taking.
Best wishes to you, though I still don't know what the music was, LOL.

Hi Sally, Just ent you a reply on the lovely six star bouquet! Guess I'll amble over your way and check out your stuff; any suggestions for starters? Dennis

Well I could suggest some to avoid! I'm quite fond of Remembering Red and Missing, which are two I did fairly recently. Kind of you to go browsing.

Comment from Amandastory
This was very funny and made me laugh. What a clever idea. Very tongue in cheek. I wondered if any of these were real reviews as you never know! I'm sure this would win a humorous competition as it is so funny and everyone on this site can relate to it!

Well one thing about it, good or bad, you had readers. Some rather creative and slap stick reviews. Good thing it's the night time and I'm not drinking coffee or my screen would be soaked. Keep on keeping on and to thy ownself be true. :)
