Ever gotten a really odd review? One that just doesn't make much sense to you, or it's so off the wall it just makes you laugh?
I got one for a fluffy story that said "Wow. Intense."  Anyone care to share? |

I got one review that read something like (I don't remember it word by word):
"Ridiculously insane! [...] You're one whacky Norwegian! *lol*" But, anyways, that review was well-deserved  |

I got a review that just said "O_o wow" I don't know if that's supposed to be good or bad...

I've gotten those reviews that are basically plugs for their own work.
Like "Hey, great PoTC fic! If you like this, you'll love mine. Click link here. It's blah blah blah....etc.," I hate those! |

Yeah that's basically just spamming up your picture. I had a picture of Gaara uploaded and (member's name here) commented saying "GAARA'S MINE!! STAY AWAY FROM HIM!" twice. Then (member's name here) sent me a hate PM.

Oh, geez. Like anyone can actually own a fictional character.
Well, with the exception of Leila, of course. *shifty eyes* |

Leila knows all. She'll know if someone tries to steal the fictional character she clearly owns. |

I got a review on one of my stories asking me to join Fictionpress. It very much confused me.

Jeremy Shane is the most confusing creature on Earth. He got into this Pm-review reply conversation with me just to "punk" me because I referenced Ashton Kutcher once. |

Yep, definitely have had a strange review. Sometimes they just make you roll your eyes.

One of my weirdest reviews ever. It's from my Tripod site.
"Terrific site. You truly are a talented writer. I was actually wondering if you would like to meet me. We are about the same age and in the same state. Think about it? If not, could you email me? Thanks a lot..." I was scared and flattered at the same time. |

You can't tell the author that they took too long to update. It's not like you can just snap your fingers and boom! There's a chapter written.

"Wonderful Chapter & SHH"
Um... what? Does anyone have any idea what SHH means? |

I had just the opposite! I had a girl getting brutally attacked in the first chapter of a story and someone posted "Cute start!" That was a total head-scratcher. |

Quite a while back, I had one reviewer who left me the following review for for one of my stories several times:
"McDonalds, McDonalds!" I scratched my head for a while on that one and decided to PM the person, asking what they had meant by that. I got the following response: "I'm lovin it!" |
