Catching up on Correspondence

Greetings and Lamentations,

My readers, you cherished few. There have been some fine postings this last week, and dare one say it, Lord Malignance has risen to the top of the list of most hated. Ahh, it is as if an award for Evil was bestowed upon me. (Lord Malignance does not endorse this blog, however believes evaluation may be more damning than anything one could say). If you have not been following some of the sparring, please do find a fine display of Villainy Rampant at the Join Roach blogs. Well worth your time.

You may not know this, but one often tries to keep up on his email replies and posts in blogs as one finds them. This brings us to some questions that have been vexing people aware of ones malevolent presence;

Comment: "You're not even Evil enough for your ArchNemesis to acknowledge! You suck! "

Reply: "1) One has only been out in this public arena these last four months. My ArchNemesis, at least as many years. Why should he acknowledge me? One expects that in his time, he's seen many ArchNemesi appear and vanish.
2) Lord Malignance didn't choose a lesser hero, a henchman gone wrong. If you kick a snake, the snake bites you. What challenge is that? No, one challenges the elite of the Superhero movement, and he should be careful, and determine ones challenge by the consistency and quality of the challenge. This may take years to move into the correct alignment, but rest assured all moves are proceeding on my timetable, and to my designs.
3) My ArchNemesis certainly is aware of my activities, and has made small overtures to judge my malevolence. Again, some "heroes" think this is a wrestling match, where costumes abound, and the result is always larger than life. They choose to see the world and ones motives in the simplistic context of comic books, where the likes of the Green Goblin are always guilty, easy to find, and defeat. No, this is more akin to Chess, where there are moves, feints, sacrifices, strategies, and campaigns."

Comment: "Trolls are awesome, they use profanity that is radical! My mom never let's me swear. You suck! "

Reply: "You will find, as you actually take and hold a position of employment, that the grown up world expects a certain level of sophistication to come from one of your adulthood. Strive to speak precisely, and allow wordcraft to be an instrument of your citizenship."

Comment: "I'm an anonymous troll, and I think you're all terrorists! I'm demonstrating limited functional intelligence! "

Reply: "Calling Villains terrorists, is hyperbole, and appears useful only in stirring the emotions of people with a staggering detachment from reality. Let one be clear: Terrorists are dangerous people who seek to kill and harm innocents. There are no Villains who ascribe to this in ANY way, nor will one associate with them. One believes it to be true, that all Villains, and all sane people agree to this as truth. Realistically, if there were terrorists, posting on these blogs, wouldn't law enforcement harvest them from our company? When you carelessly assign these extreme labels, you demonstrate a laziness, lack of intellect, and knowledge that is disheartening. Scumbags? Maybe. Terrorists, no."

Comment: "Your costume sucks (like you do). It looks like you went to the Villain Goodwill, and raided the Dollar Bin".

Reply: "One actually researched the fine history of Villainy to fashion this appearance as a pastiche of such classics as Dr. No, Doctor Doom, and the ubiquitous "Mad Scientist". All combined with an homage to my previous appearance of Cthulhu. It acheives its primary objective most elegantly. As if one needs explain this to trolls who post w/stolen jpg images.

An Email from Thunderspawn the Destroyer: "You villians are ALL SLIME, especially you, you liberal moran. When the NeoCons ran this country we were strong! NO ONE WOULD DARE MESS WITH US, BECASUE WE SOULD NUKE THEM ITNO THE STONE AGE!!!! If I ever see you on the street, I'm going to KICK YOUR ASS, you freaking socalist. Heros are going to ...." (Frankly, he gets even weirder after that).

Reply to Thunderspawn (from the Email reply): "Thunderspawn, you poor, sad deluded child. One will say this to you once, and in small words for you to have someone read to you; "You are wrong. Bad Thunderspawn. Bad Bad. No cookie. Back to your coloring book, you "moran". "

A warm sinister welcome to tHe aBsTrAcT, one looks forward to the unveiling of your Evil.

If Villainy was easy, more heroes would elevate to our station.
-Lord Malignance

P.S.
Baroness, your emails aren't reaching me. May one suggest you check the address once more?
