A very interesting email...

[Kc]

So, I received this email today. It's the first time I've received contact like this before, and you know how I love sharing these things...

"
Hi,

I subscribed to 'We're Alive' a couple of weeks ago. *It's very strange -
while the actors are unbelievably contrived and...well, just _bad_....
and while the accents that some of them affect are perhaps the worst
I've ever heard (in most cases I cannot tell you what the accent IS.
Is it British...? *Hispanic? *Something else? *Come on, guys - you must
admit that the reading of the script is laughingly inept and affected and wooden...),
and while the one-week wait for a 20-minute episode is waaaay too long -
all of this and more - believe me, I could go on...for some reason I find
myself listening to it. *I'm not sure why, frankly - it's certainly not for the
production or the acting, which are amateurish beyond belief. Could
you really not find anyone who can read with a little more aptitude?

But - you're making the effort, and I applaud that. *And I would really
suggest that if you're interested in making this something to be taken
seriously as audio drama, you're going to have to find actors with
at least SOME degree of believability.

All best,
PJB/"

From an alternate universe? Bizarro World? Maybe it's Backwards Day where he comes from.

Kc was kind enough to not attach the resume and acting reel of the composer of this email. He also omitted the post script begging for an audition....

Hey....even the Godfather got some bad reviews.

meh!
The main problem with Social Media. Everyone and their daddy is a critic or feels the need to open their pie holes.
These are the kind of people you "accidently" want to spill hot coffee (Or in Nik's case.. tea) on.

See them standing on the curb and drive through the mud puddle at their feet...........
...eat half their sandwich from the office fridge and put it back with a note saying "oops!"

It's true. I'd much prefer a nice jasmine tea to a cup o' joe.

Screw wasting a good cup of coffee or tea on him. I say kick his chair out from under him and then drop his lap top from a very tall height.

Seriously, he was asking for a job with this letter? So, he's

• Trying to be funny by saying the opposite of what he believes to be true without any context provided to illustrate that fact other than his supplications.
• Thinks that being a critic will make Kc think more of him rather than less.
• Suffers from a personality disorder and is to be pitied from very far away.

Hey, if the first one is true, what do you do?

Most civilized people do prefer tea to sludge. Especially ones named "Nik". Best name ever. ;-)
