Mary Sue?

[lunagoonie]

Does anyone remember the LJ communities like marysues and deleterius dedicated to snarking Mary Sues? A recent rule-breaking intro post on egl reads much like one of those Mary Sue descriptions, so we can snark it Mary Sue-style!

Hello, I am new to the community and thought it appropriate to introduce myself.

You thought wrong.

I am sorry but I shant be

Yeah, that was a bit awkward to read, especially the part about her appearance. I laughed at the "I shan't be disclosing my actual name" bit though.
I also like how even after being notified about intro posts and the mod suggesting, as per usual, to either edit the post to include some question or delete, she changed the post to an apology and still left it there...

Post has now been deleted, I assume by a mod?

I'm sad Deleterious is no more. I did some writing on there. But, yeah, that felt like a blast back to 2009.

I c+p'd the entire post, color and all. There were 3 comments, all of which said no intro posts. Wonder if her eyes changed color when she read them?
