Read the last two posts to understand the details of this story, but anyway, according to Anonymous:
“Krsyty, I actually enjoy reading your blog and visit it regularly. When I pointed out your mistake on “loss”, I didn’t do it to piss you off or to be smart about it. It was out of good intention, nothing else. I didn’t know you would take it that way. By the way, I am based in China and have donated to the Red Cross to help the victims. So I guess that does not make me the asshole that you’d like to think I am.”
Well, then, as I pointed out earlier, I still don’t find it neighborly to pick out your blogger’s mistakes post after post. It gets annoying. I’m not taking back the anger. You can see for yourself the manner by which the correction is made, and you’ll probably understand why I got pissed. This is NOT the first time (check the Fangirl,Fangirl post), so I am obviously pissed. Plus, I have no way of establishing the validity of this commenter’s claims.
I have my picture and name here, he/she doesn’t.
Let’s just say (for the sake of finishing this post) that the commenter really is a kind-hearted soul who loves to correct grammatical errors and donate to the Red Cross.
Fine and thank you. I get it. I suck, which I really don’t mind.
And no, I don’t exactly like to think of people as assholes, though they occasionally are.
Anyway, it’s been a prolific blog-writing afternoon, to say the least, all thanks to my sloppy editing and Anonymous commenter/s who really should at least give a name or something.
I’m not sure what I think of all this, but well, he/she seems contrite and I turn out to be the bad guy in this episode (so it seems) for going all divaesque on a minor issue, so what the hell.
I’m confused.

I’m sure whoever that was had (mostly) good intentions, but he should’ve had the courtesy to introduce himself. Anonymous commenters suck ass.

Actually, I’m fine with someone telling me I’m wrong, but that was just annoying.

And I get what you meant in the fangirl post. That’s precisely it. Comment just to point out errors without anything to say about the actual post???

One of my pet peeves.

meh don’t get too worked up about it. isipin mo nalang dagdag counter din yan sa comments.
i’ve almost completely stopped dealing with a-holes over teh internets after high school. peace and zen and all that. no use pointing out to idiots that they’re idiots since they wouldn’t acknowledge it anyway. not that i’m saying he/she is an idiot or an a-hole.
