Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I'm with len. She has this all in email?

Yeah, that's harassment. Cease engagement and what everyone else said.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

And the problem is my sister is completely not mean, so she thinks it's her job to make the student properly understand her position. HELL NO. There's nothing to understand other than STOP IT. Nothing greater needs to be accomplished here. Having read the come on email, it's seventeen kinds of inappropriate. Hell, the student isn't even single.

Much of it. There's also an hour of conversation, and then the student camping outside her office for a couple hours while she wasn't there.

I don't get how the chick who wrote that paper cuts and pastes text with Kristen's name in it, and then calls her Kiba. How slack is that?

If this were a boy being inappropriate there would be no question. Tell her she needs to escalate.

I'm also curious about how/why the student footnoted some posts with the exactly location/post, and others just with "buffistas.org". I mean, really.

Normally I would say don't bother with 2007, but...if she really is writing her dissertation on the stuff...

Thrive to spite them

I don't know if I wrote a paper and found out I had a mistake like that, even 5 years later I think I'd want it pointed out.

Although I haven't written a dissertation so what do I know?

Also on the IRC Chat room where I met Dan and Andi there was someone who did not like Angel the Series. She'd watch and then she wouldn't like it but she'd keep watching. And I finally asked her why and she said she was a "completist" (or something like that). She started watching it and she was going to watch it to the end (either because she'd started watching it or because it was an extension of Buffy).

I think she's the same person who told me not only did she not cook, she didn't touch food. Even something like a sandwich - she'd take a paper towel or napkin and wrap it around the sandwich (without touching the sandwich) and then eat the sandwich.

Unless she's using an artificial mouth and digestive system, she's touching food.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I think you should email her, Allyson. If she is getting a graduate degree studying Joss Whedon, she will probably appreciate it.

I think ita_!'s sister should STOP emailing and report it.

Admittedly, I have been watching too many Lifetime Movies lately, but please have your sister report it.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I don't know if I wrote a paper and found out I had a mistake like that, even 5 years later I think I'd want it pointed out.

How old is this paper? If she's graduated, barn door....horse. I wouldn't want to be corrected on an old college paper, honestly.
