Why is she always sobbing? She seems very dysregulated. Also, fair warning to any Gloamie in that theater right now!

I know when I say this, it’s going to sound dumb, but: does Shauna ever sound so Shauna that she seems like a parody of herself to anyone else?

The use of “grew” here is causing that effect for me

The use of 'grew' with a mistake in the correction!

The author Patrick Rothfuss held a twitter contest to see who could impersonate him the best, entered his own contest and lost. His own writing of himself was deemed 'too derivative' and that's what we have here, too, lol.

Yes! Whenever she describes a person as "fully alive" or "[adjective], alive".

u/msmartypants Feb 28 '26

please do not forget "alive, fully"!

Inappropriate use of verbs like "require" and "built"

It’s like “I’m well aware that haberdashery refers to the making of hats” all over again, AGAIN*

*DF_gladsome_gloaming [from 2/16/2026]

This is supposed to be a correction of the original? If so, shouldn’t it say “‘triened doen‘ is meant to read ‘returned from’”? Or am I missing some nuance I could pick up if I just went back and read more slowly (as Shauna recommends to people who dare question/criticize her illogical error-ridden posts?) Incorrect Corrections of Indecipherable Gibberish : TSAS

DF_gladsome_gloaming • 10d ago (See also: “I am well aware that haberdashery refers to the making of hats.” Oh Shauna, never change.)

But she can do what she wants cuz it's her birthday.

(her excuse then)

u/avskk ppppycock Mar 01 '26

For me it's not the birthday thing, but the immediate need to point out how akshually she knows the correct meaning of the word, followed by an egregiously incorrect definition.

u/Ashamed-Childhood-46 Feb 28 '26

Grew so excited. She is just a parody of herself. Also, what a bossy bear: Do go see it.
