Is there a hippie in the house to help Bestler?

Or maybe the guy who bought all of Jason Mewes's old stash?

Naw, I'm fine. Let's focus on dooming patrolmen. I read your story. It was a textual smörgåsbord, as usual.

I know, right. They act like it's YOUR fault for not “getting” their stuff. When the truth of the matter is none of it makes sense and the writing is nothing more than sub-par auto-fellatio.

As far as the logo goes, this is what it's supposed to look like:



Seeing as I created it I will explain why I used what I used.

The box overlaying the circle represents how the human spirit fits completely on both plains of earth and space (The fact the Vitruvian man fits both in the circle and the box perfect is supposed to represent this fact.)

The pentagram in the background was put there for added effect. The Pentagram has been known to represent the warding off of evil spirts/demons.

For example some Freemason lodges use this symbol in their seals and banners to represent the above. I thought it fit nicely.

As far as Rob's description of it's placement on the building, that would be the first time I've heard of that.


Bo: I'm disappointed in your latest “review” of our story. Your last review on Pt. 1 of my solo story was surprisingly constructive.

What the . . . ? I get it just fine. Did I miss something? It's Mary-Sue fanatic fantasy. It's self-indulgence at its finest. Everyone pleasures themselves. Writing stories about yourself being a wizard of some kind is like fucking a box of Alphabits cereal. That's entertaining, right? Tell me how that doesn't sound entertaining to you!

I couldn't really explain the philosophical, spiritual, and metaphysical origins of the symbol quite the way you could, my friend. Being that you're our occultist and that's your area, the deeper part of the explanation best comes from you.

As for what I said about the symbol being on our building earlier, its something that I came up with the other night to give it a logical placement in our stories. Granted, it takes nothing away from what you said above, but being that its on our crest, on the building, and on our art I felt it could benefit from a story and transitional standpoint. Kinda like how the DeLorean from BTTF was built with the DMC. The DMC logo, thus, became as much a familiar fixture on the time machine as it is a moniker for the company that built it.

Ya thought wrong, It's got nothing to do with the business of Ghostbusting and the way you've described it makes no sense. There's no reason to have it involved with your franchise in any other way, except for the fact you think “it looks cool”. But that is NOT cool, and it just reflects badly on you, and the rest of us.

I've come to realize there's no hope for you people. You're a bunch of fanboys of other fandoms coming in and writing Ghostbusters like they're action heroes, and not running a business. Which is truly where everything you people write breaks down. You treat Ghostbusting like it's a Marvel Comic adventure and not a business. You're all poor Mary Sue writers with no respect for Ghostbusters or established canon. You're stories are terrible self-aggrandizing text based versions of auto-fellatio.

Nothing is ever going to change what you collective bunch of gimps is doing. Better men than me have tried to give you legitimate advice but you folks just keep soldiering on. Making claims and accusations with the implication that everything you do rages against some imaginary prejudicial machine in regards to you guys and your so called “Art”.

It's ridiculous, your whole franchise is ridiculous, you're all a joke.

Just how much respect would someone in a janitor suit demand from everyone?

Just how much respect would someone in a janitor suit demand from everyone?

You're speaking in fictional terms. You're implying when I talk of respect, that i'm speaking from behind the “4th wall” and actually talking about Ghostbusting. I'm not. I'm talking about these gaggle of Mary Sues respecting established rules and canon that people like Fritz have worked damned hard to establish. It's disrespectful what they do. But any sort of criticism against their work is met with delusional paranoia akin to the ol' “The man is holding me down” mentality. Nevermind that 90% of the crap that these so called “rebels” create makes so little sense. Here's a list of things with Doom Patrol that make NO sense using the general rules GOOD writers when creating GB Fan Fiction.

1. The vitruvian man - There's no way humanly possible they can make that make sense. It doesn't establish their “brand” or distinguish them from other franchises. It just looks like something they use because they thought it looked “Cool”. Brian Roig's knowledge of the occult goes about as far as mine does and don't let him fool you into thinking otherwise. Belmont is a genuinely educated man and somehow this creep thought he could stand toe to toe with The Man by peddling his silly wiccan bullshit he learned from reading websites hosted on angelfire by fat teenage girls with dyed black hair and a wardrobe from Hot Topic.

2. Their equipment - Proton Gun that Looks like a piece of automatic weaponry, specifically an uzi. Ghost womping stick. Weird pseudo-occult staff for weird pseudo-Egyptian magic man. A Ghost Pokeball/Grenade. None of which are necessary or practical to Ghostbusting as business. Doom Patrol just thought it looked cool.

3. Their uniforms - I challenge anyone to explain to me how it is practical or job effective for a Ghostbuster to wear a hood, trenchcoat, X-Men Movie style Jacket and Pants, Or traditional indian dress. You'd trip over the coat, the hood eliminates your peripheral vision, a fucking leather pant-suit will have you dehydrated from the sweat pouring out of your body, and don't get me started on Salina and her stupid suri or whatever the hell it's called. None of these things make any sense in our little fictional world, They just did it to look cool.

4. Their Headquarters - There is NO WAY a Ghostbusters franchise could afford a building of that size. Nor would they need one. Contrary to what Doom Patrol would have you believe, Ghostbusters is not a high-profit job. You barely make enough to cover expenses and break-even. If you go by the $11,500 a year figure that Winston gives, that means the Ghostbusters make an estimate of $220 a week. So that means during a regular 4-week month 1 Ghostbuster makes $880. Let's say there's 6 people in Doom Patrol, because I don't give a shit to confirm how many people they really have, That means that 6 Ghostbusters make $5280 dollars a month. There's no way they could afford to buy a building like that, after the expenses of building a containment unit and maintaining their equipment. Nevermind the fact that their equipment is apparently “experimental” so they no doubt require a bit more care and more expensive parts to maintain. They took no logic into account they just did it because they thought it looked cool.

That's only 4 things, but I could make a list of about 20 easy if I actually cared enough to really stick it in and break it off. But like I said, It won't matter because i'm just “the man trying to hold them down” artistically. But ya notice the recurring theme there? “They just did it because they thought it was cool”.

Just because it looks cool to you guys, doesn't mean it looks cool to anyone else. The rest of us just think you're a joke, and nobody takes you seriously. You wanna know why “the man is holding you down”? It's because you suck, and your continued existence and defiance of canon that we all take care to acknowledge, is completely disrespectful. It disrespects someone like me who laid the groundwork for your stupid cartoon franchise. If I'da known that a group of hacks like you would come up behind me and taint the damned legacy with poor writing and Mary Sue tendencies leaking out of your collective asses, I would have never done it.
