Spite Hate Mail: Hey, everybody! The mailbag disappeared for like what, a month? Well, we're back. We gotta play catch-up in a hurry, so I'm not bothering to put each letter on its own page. But to make it up to you, I'm including people's answers to the Spite Form that's on the Write Spite page. You don't have to thank me. -ed. From: s. Date: September 9, 1998 Regarding: Spite's Niftiness you are ultra-nifty. pettish and whiny, yes, but still quite nifty. i likes you lots. i might even send you a piece sometime, cos i'm pretty vain (i've got a website, and it's all writing. tres literary or something.) anyhow, keep kvetching and could you give me the phone number of that spoilt rich kid? O;) s.'s answers to the Spite Form: Favorite article: how to hold a grudge Least favorite: some of those rants...honestly, people! one can be *too* postmodern. Discovered Spite through: wing chun's links at hissyfit. she rules too. Spiteful about: popular music today. i could rave for hours about its awfulness. Something specific and irrelevant: I love to eat mussels and raw oysters. Yum! Pettish, whiny and nifty -- that's not just a compliment, that's a mantra. - ed. From: Anonymother (Mass Media'd) Date: September 16, 1998 Regarding: Our Prediction That the Red Sox Would Win The World Series Where to begin when addressing the ever-sweet but always- delusional Greg Lancaster (The Sox; This is their year)? 80 years of frustration have clearly taken their toll on ol' Greg's grey matter. In response, I have a riddle for the Gregman: What do the following singers have in common? Anne Murray, The Monkees, The Pretenders, Patsy Cline, Mama Cass, Everly Brothers and... well, that's enough, Greg. 1998 is not their year. The Sox will not see another World Series ring in this century. Now, if you could work on Mo's base running.... Anonymother.'s answers to the Spite Form: Favorite article: The one I wrote.... Least favorite: Too close to call... Discovered Spite through: Hanging around with the wrong people Spiteful about: Almost everything. It's my job. Something specific and irrelevant: I am a high school drop-out. How can you complain about the Red Sox article? It was flawless, except for the usual typo about the year.- ed. From: Janet, co-creator of Scowl. Date: September 18, 1998 Regarding: Her answer to my email asking how she found us Funny you should mention Hissyfit -- I found your site through Wing Chun's links page!! I visit Hissyfit often...it was one of the very first cool sites I ever stumbled upon when I first got my internet account at work. I think that it's so eerie that the 'net seems so vast, yet everyone ends up being so connected... ---Janet (the other half of Scowl) PS. I loved the "Bitter Guy Surfs the Web" comic...I can relate, what with my dinosaur of a computer they gave me at work. Janet and her hubby Avery's site is very, very cool. You should abandon Spite right now and devote your attention to it.- ed. From: Beth Date: September 24, 1998 Regarding: The President Should Be Allowed to Score Some 'Tang But would you want your mechanic to have sex in your Honda? If he didn't hurt my car (y'all will have to read the article to know what she's talking about).- ed. From: Alex Date: October 2, 1998 Regarding: Our Open Letter to Tony Danza Excuse me, but I think your open letter to tony danza is crap. Have you ever seen who's the boss?! Get a clue! Seen it. Hence the letter.- ed. From: Larry Marshall Date: October 12, 1998 Regarding: Our Open Letter to Tony Danza We appreciate your dislike of Mr. Danza, and his obviously overrated acting ability. Just wondering if you saw that horrendous TV movie that was on last evening, October 11th. Hope it can make it into the annals of your fine website. I did, and in fact it completely convinced me that I was wrong and that he is one of the greatest actors to ever... whoops, I lied.- ed. From: RSD Date: October 12, 1998 Regarding: Our Two-Year Old Criticism of Alanis Morisette I am sorry but i happen to love ALANIS MORISSETTE. You where so nice to create such a hateful page. I think you should start enjoying music and if you don't like it fine. If you do like it thats even better, but to hear from other people that your favorite musician sucks makes you want to punch them. I think you should make a page of music you like. GET A LIFE. If she was so bad then why did she get all them awards and all those people went to her concerts. (Thank you) for your time. You win.- ed.
