They always seem to forget that reverse image search is a thing. Like, they already seem suspicious when they're giving out unsolicited offers, but that just seals it. But as with any kind of scammer, they're not looking for knowledgeable marks.

That is incorrect Right answer, but wrong format Write it in haiku

Ah, what is this? Another channel to watch? I will keep an eye on it.

Happiness tanks refilled: Addiction fueled.

This is exactly how I feel. If a real person tells me they hate my stories and that I should just quit writing, it would mean more than a bot or scammer trying to butter me up. Granted, it would still sting, but it's at least a real human opinion.

I am so close... Soon, I will be able to bring the joys of soda taps and milkshakes to the SHF masses.

I know there are a few that do that. Jim Browning and ScammerRevolts are a couple of the more popular channels. I think at least one of those two uses multiple voices.

The last story I ever managed to get to some kind of finishing state was, like, ten years ago, so I definitely have a lot of rust to shake off. I could try to breakdown every little thing with some excuse, but that's a waste of time. I'll keep all this in mind as I'm going forward. Thank you for...

Oh, I certainly have no intention of seeking an agent. I'm happy (enough) putting work up online for five people to enjoy for free. Don't think anything would be worth paying for anyway, and that's okay. Also, why is it so against "just"? Is it something to do with the term "Social Justice...
