Sean Catlett:
Well, much like the Deftones and System of a Down, you released your title fic, The Tears of a Mad Man.
But it's Madman now, isn't it?

The Tears of a Madman:
It is indeed. It's more correct in a grammar sense. It's too bad it took me a couple of years to see that.

Sean Catlett:
Noted.

The Tears of a Madman:
But yeah, the self-titled fic was a rip-off on purpose. Can you guess whose style I stole and from what fic?

Sean Catlett:
Faggy Obscure Title by Faggy Overrated Author?

The Tears of a Madman:
That's correct! Jaspul by Sean Catlett!
Indeed, I ripped it on purpose, fully aware that no one would be able to tell the difference. This is about the time I started becoming bitter towards pretty much everyone. I was wrong, though. You mentioned Jaspul in your review, which suprised me, even though it was your fic I ripped.

Sean Catlett:
I did?

The Tears of a Madman:
You did.

Sean Catlett:
How horribly self-centered of me.

The Tears of a Madman:
You were right, though.

Sean Catlett:
Well, be that as it may, you weren't the first or last person to "rip" Jaspul. Someone named Black Rose(?) did it too. In a much more... er... transcribed fashion.
So don't feel bad!

The Tears of a Madman:
I recall. The name switchy?

Sean Catlett:
Yeah that one.

The Tears of a Madman:
You forget, I've had one of those two. Although mine was much more of a... stalker.

Sean Catlett:
Oh yeah! Who was he and what did he steal?

The Tears of a Madman:
Thing is, I'm not sure if it was a she or a he... "it" went under both. I forget it's name right now. I just remember it took My Own Rapture, put some different names in it, and kept mentioning me through all of it's other crappy fics. It was kind of scary. I bet if I looked through some older reviews it'd pop up quite a few times.

Sean Catlett:
Wasn't it Ben Stallion? Or were you trying not to name names?

The Tears of a Madman:
No, it was "something the Hedgehog". Something really cliché.
So Mr. Interview man, is this the part where we talk about Fallen Idol?

Sean Catlett:
Why is everyone always telling me how to do my fucking job?! We'll talk about what I want to talk about!! Fucking Christ, does no one understand?! I'm the boss, I'm Tony fucking Danza with a halo, you'll do what I goddamn say or you'll goddamn get stabbed!!!!!
And yes, it is.
