Their logic is not like our earth logic...
Sep. 6th, 2006 02:51 pmThis is just so priceless that I wanted to share it with you all... as you may or may not know, the lovely
xochiquetzl and I run All Daniel Fic, which is a fanfic archive for stories featuring the character of Daniel Jackson from Stargate SG-1. Het, slash or gen, we're happy to accept anything that's reasonably coherent as long as it's Daniel-centric.
So, back in February this year we get an email that goes like this:
dear michael shanks you are one of the hottest actors on the showstargatesg1 well i waswondering if you are single or not?? well you are so cute that last night i was watching a rerun of your show and i was blushing if you want you can call me at
[telephone number] you are very handsome Michael Shanks
From your fan [full name] i live in [address]
Yes, an email to a fanfic archive complete with telephone number, complete name and partial address. We reply to said nutjob telling her that we're a fanfic archive and therefore don't have any contact with Michael Shanks, and she really shouldn't be sending out her contact details to all and sundry.
We get a reply:
i am so happy that michael shanks plays dr.danel jackson. he is a great actor on the show stargate sg1 well i hope that he is still on the show well michael shanks you are very handsome from your fan [full name] [telephone number] have a great day
Then, about 2 hours later (in response to our further 'go away crazy person and stop sending people your personal details' email):
well can you please send me a signed autograph of Michael Shanks picture i am a huge fan of the show stargate sg1
[full name]
[full postal address, including zip code] thank you from [name]
[email address, in case we'd missed it] [phone number]
We decide that the best way to deal with this is to ignore it. Then today, 7 months later and out of the blue, we get another email (in orange text on a dark green background no less):
well i was wondering if i can meet michael shanks i know he is taken but i am a fan of him and the show stargate sg1 from [name] [email address] call me at [telephone number] okay well have a nice day.
