I'm SERIOUSLY pissed off

[wajoma]

and i know its bad manners to repost stuff in your LJ that other people have said.. but this NEEDS to finally be put out there
Those who've been on my friends list for a long while, will most likely remember when i asked for advice about whether to accept this offer to sit near JM or not

Oh, sweetiebun!

*big hugs*

How awful for you. Augh! I can't think of anything useful to say ... except that I had read a transcript of the Q&A and was wondering what JM meant by the airplane remark, so thanks for shedding light on that.

[mlewys]

*hugs*

Baby, I don't know what more to say that we haven't already said. But, I can back you on everything you said because I was there for some of it.

*big hugs*

[wajoma]

thanks darl'n .... until last night, i thought it was all dead and gone, but when i was given Raven's version of events, and realised these were the lies she was telling everyone, i figured it was time to speak up.

[mlewys]

I understand your need for the truth to be heard, but it's really going to change little. One thing I've learned is people will be people, as surprising and disappointing as that is.

And people can rationalize anything.

*nods*

you're wonderful toga ... love you to bits, which you know.

I need to thank you properly and publicly for everything you did for me that week, the unconditional support ..

you're amazing.

Hey Sweetie. I am SO sorry to hear that you had to go through with that. *hugs you*
But... like you said, "everything happens for a reason."
Each exsperance that encounter is a new lesson. I can clearly see that this one was a new lesson for you.
I'm still sorry that you had to go through it. :(
*hugs you again*

I'm sick of people bagging James Marsters.. people who force themselves into his presence, then act all surprised when he doesn't fall over himself in a rush to be all friendly back

I hate this shit too and with bile added. James is so clearly a nice guy that it disgusts me when people use their encounters with him as a way of making themselves seem exclusive. Last year in one of the many queues I hung in, I rolled my eyes and dry heaved as one tosser after another claimed in stage whispers how the 'real' James was nothing like he wanted us to believe and they'd seen what he was really like. Not quite the same thing as you are talking about but certainly an example of people lie-boasting to compensate for their metaphorical tiny penises. Er, what's the female equivalent of that anyway?

:::hugs you hard:::

hahahahaha ... thanks darl'n i needed a laugh and i have NO idea what the female equivalent is
but if you find out .. you be sure to come tell me :D

the whole 'real' James Vs 'Convention' James thing just amuses the HELL outta me .. cause honestly, who really believes they see a fully relaxed, being himself, unguarded James at a Con.

Hes there WORKING, he's paid a lot of money to give the fans a positive experience, and he takes this responisbility seriously and delivered 100% of the time

just how exactly does that make him less ??

/mini-rant

[sangueuk]

It doesn't make him less, no. I am interested however in hearing the small details and differences in all the encounters. I actually saw his con persona melt for a few minutes when I got my autograph the other week. Oh, how I'd love to say it was because he was gob-smacked by my latin beauty - but it was just the sight of his knees in the photo I gave him to sign.

Yes, I was disapionted that I didn't get my moment - something I'd been looking forward to since the last time I saw him a year before, but I didn't blame him, it was the kilt! He is a total sweetie and I think he gives his fans more than anyone can be expected to. I also hope he makes TONS of money.

One of my favourite stories is something the guy who owned the B&B we stayed in, in Blackpool, said. You need to say this out loud in a Northern accent. JM chilled out in the hotel bar after the SFX con a couple of years back and he met him then.

"Is that James Mas-turrs gonna be thah?"

"No, unfortunately not."

"Bluddy shame. What a LUV-LEE blowk."

Indeed.

I remember all of this Waj...and I know you're telling the truth. The main reason being, because you actually shared it with me in confidence almost a year ago, and sweetie, you're story remains the same, detail by detail. Not that I ever doubted you, but in case someone else is, Waj is telling the truth on all accounts. *pats you on the back* for having the courage to speak up about it. And that really kind of sux that you have had to be associated with people like that.... but now you're free! :)

[wajoma]

yup .. live and learn about people

one thing i've learned is that most people are good and honest .. but that not everyone is

you can speak with someone online every day for ages and ages (years) and then once you meet face to face they're not who they represented themselves to be

sad lesson .. and had to go to the other side of the world to learn it .. but as i said .. thank goodness they're the minority.

[dee25x5]

Yes, I second that thank goodness. :)
