Syd, do you ever get amusing hatemail? and would you ever share it with us?

I bring it up because of the christmas book article. Eventually, you know you're going to get atleast one message trying to convince you that you should prefer Jesus over cool hats.

That'd be a tough argument to make. After all, cool hats are pretty damn cool.

If I ever got any really amusing hatemail, I would definitely share it. Unfortunately the hatemail I get thus far tends to be people defending Marble Madness and Street Fighter 1 and they don't say anything particularly interesting or make any ridiculous typos.

And it's certainly not for lack of trying.

I really thought that Ted Kennedy Is Worse Than Hitler would get me some good hatemail, but no dice. Perhaps if I hadn't made it clear that it was a joke, I would have...

Here's the only piece of hatemail that I've received in last 2 months...

I just recently read your post about street fighter, i think your a wanker and a prat for mocking british punk. england is punk, we invented it, you faggot cowboy!

I didn't bother responding this jackass, but for the record, England didn't invent punk. Punk started in America with artists like Iggy Pop, The New York Dolls, and The Ramones, all of whom predate his precious Sex Pistols.

Booo! Anyway, due to my late-minded stupidity of making another thread entitled "Hatemail", I want to give my thoughts on hatemail before rabid forum-dwellers crawl out of the holes in my computer and eat me alive. (Hey, it happened in China.)

Most of it's pretty damn funny. I enjoy a good piece of hatemail much more than a crappy fan letter, but if you ever get those, hey, that'd be alright too. But most hatemail trumps wishy-washy fan stuff by a long shot.

Man, I still can't BELIEVE how stupid I was to make another post pretty much duplicate of this one, with a poll. If we ever make a top 10 stupidity list, I want to be #4.

If I can personally get some idiots to start sending hatemail, I'll try. It'll be a hard, pointless journy with many heart containers, stupid minibosses, and side quests, but I'll come through it in the end and finally manage, by the power of the Triforce, to fall asleep.

I got hatemail a while ago for one of my articles on THI. It was pretty boring.
