Hate Mail

This is some of the hate mail I have received. This particular example is from the proprietor of Monty Python Heaven. I never said any of this back to him, but I might seeing how I now know how much of an asshole he is thanks to alt.fan.monty-python.

I just checked. Your page is a huge collection of javascript errors andbusted images. There is no way I'd even consider linking to it. Fix itor it's not worth my time. You also might want to consider getting thehell off of Xoom. The xoombar sucks and it doesn't work well withframes.

Bullshit. Errors, my ass. It works PERFECTLY on my browser.

I use Netscape 4.5, not an old browser and I do know what the hell I'mtalking about.

Never said that.

Your miserable excuse for a web-page generated 2 different javascript errors (get rid of that mouseover junk, it's thework of amateurs), your toy clock wasn't working (another mark of a baddesigner, if anyone wants to know the time they can look at their owntask bar) and 4 different image tags were busted. I will not link tosuch a bad page.

Fuck you, pal. I put whatever the fuck I want on my page. As for the JavaScript, I was still learning and experimenting with it. As for the image tags, it is a fact that a lot of times Netscape doesn't see images that are there. Believe me, it's happend to me. Hitting "reload" will usually fix the problems.

It's up to you to preview your work in differentbrowsers to make sure it works across all different browsers andversions.

It does.

It is not up to me to re-visit with a different browser tohopefully find one that works with your garbage coding.

First of all, I didn't ask you to do so. Secondly, fuck you. If you don't like the way I code, kiss my ass.

Fix you page,don't blame browsers for your own lack of skills.

Fuck you. I'm not blaming browsers and my skills are sufficient.

Until you understandthat simple concept, your page will never be anything more than a wasteof time to anyone that visits it, and I will never send my visitors tosuch a poorly coded site. Try building a decent site and people will behappy to link to you. At this point, you're not even close to thatstage, and with your attitude of blaming old browsers for your ownerrors, you never will be.

Fuck you again, buddy. Kiss my ass.

This guy makes a hell of a lot of assumptions about my person. In case you're wondering about the email that sparked this letter, it's long gone. However, I didn't suggest half the things he said here.
