Like James Frey, Mari has a fiction addiction. I do sincerely empathize with addicts...however, when faced with irrefutable proof of the addiction I want an addict to come clean so real life can begin.

It's not that I am simply 'mean'--it's just that I don't buy it. At all. Money is tight/tight/tight? then don't take precious extra money to buy a pure-bred puppy and claim you needed companionship---Um, mongrels offer the same companionship, no? I could go on but I won't, it's fairly futile. But! i find it VERY interesting that mari did not (nor her familiar, tonchi) comment on my ideas for mari to live in "the real world"--they simply attacked me--no mention of the ideas. Classic. Classic Victim Mentality. I know mari has bread--if she wants to eat cake she should put forth some kind of effort--ANY effort at all would do.
