Local game show contestant Tanner P. felt compelled to e-mail me at 1:18 am about my analysis of Monday’s episode. And he wasn’t happy. Here’s what he said:
Hey Laura, This is Tanner P. and someone forwarded your blog to me. All I have to say, is do you have anything good to say about anyone? I mean, you can’t find one good thing to say about anyone from the show? All you do is dog everyone for whatever you seem [sic] fit! Seriously, you must have no flaws have [sic] Laura, you are just too perfect.
Two minutes later, Tanner P. apparently got worried. Perhaps he was a little unsettled by the notion that I might actually think that I’m “too perfect.” Maybe he thought I was unfamiliar with sarcasm. I don’t know. But he chose to write again. Jump for the P.S. and the picture of me that he attached in the body of the e-mail (pilfered from Facebook).
Tanner wrote: “Get real w/yourself before you criticize others on your blog.”
Okay, Tanner P. I’ll get real. And thanks for thinking of FrontBurner as “my” blog. I’ve always felt that way, too.
