My blurb:
I came to Tattler not being, nor ever having been, a fan of CD. A friend however was a big fan and I occasionally watched some of the CD links she'd send me. To her, CD was as close to a religion as she'd ever get. I didn't see the attraction but did appreciate how charismatic and charming the host could appear to be. I found it all rather frivolous and fake and good naturedly told my friend just that. Apparently I'm a Philistine.
The allure of the host simply didn't ring true for me. Eventually her CD obsession became too much and she decided to visit. Five seconds into her visit she was yelled at for leaving her car in the wrong place. She told me she left LieLande crying; neglected and ignored during her visit she was bewildered by the vlog's illusion of inclusion. She told me the food were nothing special, the place deteriorating, dank, dirty and dangerous and the staff (volunteers) uninterested in engaging. I looked into reviews, found Miss Artemis's, then came across Tattle. It was an eye-opener! I shared the CD Tattle threads with my friend, but have since been accused of rubbing it in and saying 'I told you so.' Oh well.
I am now happily ensconced here - enjoying the humour, speculation and gossip with like minded people
and with a brand new sparking cat tile avatar by Jules! Have you seen it? Make sure you check it out before moving on to the next post! Months later, my friend is no longer speaking to me. I crossed a line when I took her cat to the vet without her permission, the poor creature having not been wormed or vaccinated in over 3 years. I'd like to kidnap Ruby too, as neglect of animals in one's care is anathema to me. For this abominable sin, Fanny should be lined up against a wall and... (insert appropriate punishment here).
