I love reviews but....

I have to wonder what is in some people's heads...

 

Is very confused by reviewer who reads a story which is clearly labeled Hermione G. & Severus S. then leaves comments such as:

 

I'm not impressed this was Snape - I honestly was expecting Remus

????Why on earth would you expect Remus when it's HG/SS???

 

I might just run to the bathroom to throw up at the thought of Severus naked

????Then why the hell are you reading HG/SS????

 

I'm still weirded out by his presence in this story, by the by.

????Why would you be weirded out... it's a HG/SS story????

 

Then on the last chapter she says:

Very nice story, I quite enjoyed it.

 

But then feels compelled to add:

You should be impressed that I stayed on to finish it despite the whole thing being about Snape and Hermione - I've never been a fan of Snape

AAARRRRRGGGHHHH!!!!

 

I have only posted snippets of her comments here, but upon reading some of the wording of her comments, I am thinking that she is very young.

But still, if you don't like Snape and don't want to imagine him and Hermione together then for gods sake don't read stories labeled HG/SS!

My dear sister, I can sympathise more than I can say!!

I really don't know why people do that. You know, after all the warnings on "I Want That One", I still had someone flame me after chapter 2, saying, "I'm sorry, but this is just too disturbing for me. I thought this would be like 'Princess of Gryffindor', but I'm through. This story is just too upsetting"

You don't say what you'd really like to say (I'm still trying to figure out WHAT to say to such blatant stupidity), but yes, you do want to say, if you don't like it, then why the F*&^ are you continuing to read it?

Obviously I shouldn't get started, because it does make me crazy. I don't like Snarry, I don't like SNupin, I don't like dramione. So, ergo, I don't read them. What would be the point of me reading them to review them by saying, "I hate this pairing and the thought of Harry giving one to Snape makes me want to throw up in the bushes?"

GRRRR. Hang in there. Maybe she will dream of our dear professor tonight, and he'll show her exactly why we love to read about him naked! You will have created a convert! Think of writing as a public service. ;)
