Well, this is, hands-down, the most ridiculous thing I've seen all week...

Paraphrased poster: I would like to find this sci-fi book. I will now tell you about it in great detail with no extraneous information about my childhood traumas, that cat that I raised from a kitten, or my grandparents.

Verbatim response: The great thing about science fiction is that you could write the book as you remember it and be your own author!

Seriously, what is that? WHAT IS THAT RESPONSE AND WHY.

Now I need to see if this actually made it onto IMDB:

Okay, but even if somehow they were on some separate planet like this dipwad thinks, it's not really a plot hole because they don't need to explain it.

...

*goes read about the movie*

So it would seem the movie is actually more distant from the book than Starship Troopers. That takes some doing.

I saw that, and saw your response. :D I really need to post the book I've been trying to remember.

[conuly]

So what are you even waiting for?

[jennaria]

What. But. How.

There is missing the point and then there is actively ducking and covering from the point, and I kinda feel like the responder was the latter.

It's an obnoxious enough response when it's to "I had the following problems with this piece of fiction" but this was I don't even know. Nobody asked that person to reply!
