Celebrating Valentine’s Day?
Hello my friends, are you going to do anything special on Valentine’s Day this year? Here where I live we don’t necessarily celebrate only with partners or significant halves. We can share the happiness with our loved ones like best friends, parents or family members as well. Isn’t that nice? 🙂
As before, I wanted to publish a new drawing as my gift to you all, and knowing my tight schedule, I actually started much earlier than usual. Regrettably, I could not finish it before the “deadline”, let alone polishing it. 🙁 Therefore, please bear with me, and I truly appreciate your patience.
Before I go, I’d like to bring up an old drawing back in 2015 (time flies indeed!!), which I dedicated to my friend Candy Bert. Below is the cropped version of the original drawing, and those who remember the movie Titanic might find the dress familiar. 😀
For details please read my post Candy dressed up! and you can find the original drawing on True Romantica, Un superbe cadeau de la part de Ms Puddle! Wishing you all a happy Valentine’s Day! ❤️ ❤️
Hi fellow CC fans, I welcome everyone here. You’re free to express your opinions of course, and yet please take my suggestion and stop talking about a certain Terry fan. There’s no point to linger on proving that she’s in a pitiful state, don’t you think? Let’s move on and talk about something more upbeat and positive. 🙂
@Anita: Appreciate your kind and encouraging words re my drawings ❤️
@Interstellar: Wow, I didn’t know you’re this tall! How do you survive traveling around for business? Yet I bet you get to fly in business class or first class? 😉
@Sarah: I never posted the link to that particular video because it clearly said something like “do not share without permission”. When I first mentioned that video I only talked about what I read and asked people to do a Google search on it. 😛 According to @Fay, the owner of that controversial video had removed it from YouTube some time afterwards. I agree that the audio quality was actually quite bad, but I read the entire conversation in the video description (the questions to Nagita sensei about Albert and Candy’s relationship and the author’s subsequent responses). Essentially, the author firmly said “no” to the so-called fraternal relationship and admitted that Candy and Albert had feelings for each other. Then she gestured with her finger (making circular motion near her head) and said something along this line “Just imagine it yourself”. Again, I did not hear a word but as far as I could tell, the author’s facial expressions reasonably matched the conversation.
Ms Puddle
Hello Ms Puddle,
Thank you for the information provided. I agree and support your decision to re-enable the aforementioned comment section because people have the legitimate right to respond to offensive comments hurled against them. From my part, I do my utmost to be considerate towards those who are also considerate to me. This is the reason why I respect you and most of the members of this CC community. However, if someone attempts to insult me, then I will go beast-mode on them and insult them in return and in full force. No favors or exceptions to the rules here. If any of those idiotic and deranged Terry-trolls attempt to insult me, I’ll give them what they deserve without any infinitesimal reservation.
As for my lofty 6ft2 frame, I am quite a giraffe and you’re right about passenger flights, especially when it comes to leg space. I tend to book flights asap in order to request for a seat with extra leg room but I don’t always manage to achieve that.
I’ll end my comment with your note regarding the personal information surrounding that specific Terry-zealot. I agree with you that we shouldn’t expose personal information but that specific person deserves to be exposed and shamed. I’ve come across her appalling comments about Susanna’s amputated leg along with other emetic racist comments of hers and all I have to say is that she’s vermin. Nothing more, nothing less.
I’ll respect your request, nevertheless, and refrain from wasting my time any further with that creature, provided that she doesn’t mess with me. Spoiler alert: If she tries to mess with me, she won’t like what will ensue.
Regards,
Interstellar
Well said!
Thanks, Sarah.
Thank you Interstellar for your continued support and encouragement. I truly appreciate it.
Also thank you for your respect. I feel that enough have been said about a certain fan and no point to dwell on it any further.
I hope you will always find comfortable seats when flying!
Hello Ms Puddle,
You can always rely on my utmost respect and admiration for you. This is the reason why you’re the only CC-themed blog I enjoy contributing. Just like you, I enjoy the CC series without fixating or being obsessed with a single character. Besides, Keiko Nagita’s intention is for us to appreciate her work as a whole and not single out anyone because all the CC characters are equivalently significant by playing their instrumental role in the overall story.
As for comfortable seats, I only get the much needed leg room on trans-Atlantic flights where the planes are much larger and provide wider space. Unfortunately, the charter/transit flights are a nightmare as I have to squeeze my legs in such small spaces.
There should be a hashtag #tallpeoplelivesmatter trending on Twitter-Just kidding..
See you around,
Interstellar
Lol! I know the feeling-Interstellar. I’m not as tall as you but even my 5ft 9 frame (1,75m for the metric system folks) is too big for most cabin seats. Idk why they make those seats so small.
It’s for financial reasons.. Charter flights are much cheaper than other long-haul flights. As they run on a tight budget, they economize significantly by reducing the leg-space and corridor width.
Facts.
Thank you Interstellar. Well said about Candy Candy story as a whole. My sentiments exactly 👏
Hello Ms Puddle,
How are you coping with COVID-19? Hope you and your family are in good health and safety amidst this unprecedented crisis.
Stay safe,
Interstellar
Hello Interstellar, thanks for your kind words. This global crisis is indeed unprecedented, and I’ve been working from home since March 13 and staying home most of the time.
I hope you don’t have to travel as much as before? Wishing you and your loved ones the best health in times like this!
Let’s rest more and eat well to boost our immunity 🤗
Hello Ms Puddle,
My colleagues and I are all working from our homes as well. Apparently, any form of overseas travel for business purposes has been postponed.
We’re the fortunate ones who can continue our work from home but there are so many people who have lost their jobs or keep on working on the front line putting their health at risk.
I agree with you that we should take this time as an opportunity to rest and eat well.
Regards,
Interstellar
Yes indeed Interstellar. Some of my friends still have to go to work during office hours. We are the fortunate ones, no doubt about that.
You take care, my friend, and take this opportunity to spend more time with your loved ones or learn something new 🤗
Dear Mr Puddle and Interstellar,
Glad to know that you’re fine during these difficult times. Hopefully, this crisis will be over soon and we’ll resume our normal lives.
Take Care,
Sarah
Dear Ms Puddle and Interstellar,
Glad to know that you’re fine during these difficult times. Hopefully, this crisis will be over soon and we’ll resume our normal lives.
Take Care,
Sarah
Dear Sarah and Interstellar,
US has many confirmed cases thus far 😨 and in Canada there’s a surge of new cases today too 😰
Glad to hear you two are still safe. Really take care and stay isolated from people!!
Thank you, Sarah. You take care of yourself as well.
Dear Ms Puddle, I don’t want to get political, yet, I have no other alternative but to castigate the utmost incompetence of the US government to acknowledge the severity of this pandemic. The confirmed cases in the US have sky-rocketed and all this time, we get a ludicrous president who kept on saying that this was a hoax. He even wants to cease the lockdown by April because the stock-market is losing profit. He has no concern for human life. The medical system is in shambles. The US is becoming just as awful as Italy. At least in Canada, you are all fortunate to have a far better prime-minister who may have his faults but at least he bestows the respect required for human life and dignity.
Stay safe and maintain social distancing until we get through this.
Sarah
That same level of incompetence is going on in the UK too. It appears that the same level of stupidity exists from both sides of the pond when it comes to voting for a political leader.
I just want to add my own best wishes to everyone in this community and hope for the best.
Thank you, Ms Puddle, for welcoming us on your blog and please take good care of yourself and your loved ones.
Thank you Lynn for your best wishes 🤗 It’s unfortunate some countries have not acted fast enough or taken proactive approach to fight the unprecedented crisis… Yet I must add it’s frustrating to see many Canadians ignoring the new rules and regulations despite the continuous warnings 😔
Yes it’s unfortunate, Sarah. I read the news every day and can’t help shaking my head. I’m sorry to say that you have to protect yourself by isolation. Do you commute to work still or can you work remotely from home?
I’m working exclusively from home for the time-being. My job is heavily computer software-related and I tend to work and do loads of overtime both at home and at the office when required.
Take care Sarah. Don’t forget to rest. It’s a weapon 💪
Yes, your drawings are beautiful. Ms Puddle. Perhaps Keiko Nagita should have you do the artwork for her books.🙂 Are you planning on drawing the other characters too? It would be cool to see your artwork revolving Stear, Archie, Terry and Susanna.
Concerning that debated video, it’s a pity we can’t get to see it. But even without it, Keiko Nagita has made it perfectly clear that she won’t ever reveal the name of Anohito. I also find it intriguing that she remains silent as to whether Candy actually got married or not. Does she have kids? Is she still working? We simply do not know.
Yet, those who persist on believing that there was no romantic relationship between Candy and Albert are deceiving their own selves. It’s obvious that their bromance developed into a romance. The question which remains is whether or not they actually hooked up or tied the knot. My theory is that Keiko Nagita has deliberately left the door open for both options because she doesn’t want to alienate the Terry&Albert fans. This has enraged many Terry fans because they wanted a clear-cut revelation that Anohito is Terry but he’s just as likely to be Anohito as Albert is. It’s a shame that many Terry fans are consuming themselves with too much bitterness and rage instead of enjoying the novel. I prefer the manga but the book is OK-ish but nothing incredible like the manga. I don’t think that Candy Candy would have received all that fame if it hadn’t been for the manga and TOEI anime. The book on its own is rather flat and boring. Nagita doesn’t seem to have put too much effort into it. Maybe it’s because of all those legal conflicts she had with Yumiko Igarashi.
Nice talking to you,
Anita
Thanks again Anita for your compliments. As I mentioned I’m drawing Archie but it’s not easy. I need some more spare time and inspirations at the moment, and if time permits I’ll write a story about him too. He’s my second favorite male character in Candy Candy.
About Candy’s being married or not, I read an interview (which I shared in one post) that the interviewer said to Nagita sensei about Candy being a married woman in her 30s. Nagita sensei did not correct the interviewer, so I guess Candy was indeed married and belonged to a man who could rightfully inherit an expensive family heirloom and would display a family/staff picture taken at the Miami’s opening party at home.
I also like the manga version the best, and yet CCFS is still a lot better than the anime version, which deviated too much from the original story and gave Terry too much unnecessary emphasis.
The epilogue in CCFS is far from boring to me though, and neither the manga nor the anime provides the relationship between Candy and Albert in such a direct way.
Nice chatting with you too,
Ms Puddle
Thank you for responding, Ms Puddle.😃
I agree that the anime was inferior to the manga but it’s alright for children, even though most children these days find interest in other forms of animation and online gaming.
Didn’t know that Archie is one of your favorite characters. I like him too. It’s a shame the writer paired him with Annie. He deserved someone better and much more fascinating.
Looks like Nagita will not be working on the Candy Candy project anymore. Maybe she could endorse another writer or fan to continue the story. There’s a plethora of fan-art which is actually quite interesting.
Thanks again,
Anita
Hi there Ms Puddle & Anita! I like the fact that this blog focuses on various topics apart from a single character of the CC series. Almost all the CC blogs are either based on Terry or Albert, exclusively. I’ve been reading the “Myths of Candy Candy Final Story” and “Lost in Translation” articles in this blog during my extremely limited free-time. Hopefully, I’ll get to read Ms Puddle’s fan fiction as well.
Anita, I agree with you about Annie. She’s too shallow and selfish for Archie. No wonder he had such a crush on Candy. He does appear to appreciate her a bit more during his postgraduate studies. Maybe it’s due to her becoming less possessive and needy while he was away for his university studies.
Hi Lakewood-I’ve also read the 4 parts of ‘The Myths of CCFS’ and they’re fascinating. Ms Puddle and Alex put so much effort in producing material based on factual evidence by providing additional source material and a timeline of historical events. I really enjoyed the approach used in studying CCFS.
The credits mainly go to Alex, Anita. She kindly provided the resources and references. I mainly organized the materials and added a bit of my own ideas and arguments. 🤗
@Anita That series is one of my favorite because it centers more on history and less on the romance. Most CC fans are too preoccupied with Candy’s love-life but Nagita’s main intention was to present how all the main characters in her story were affected by World War I.
Yes, Lakewood, and also how they grew up and learned from their past mistakes. They coped with various adversities in lives and carried on living with hopes.
Thank you so much Lakewood for reading my series despite your busy schedule. Your encouraging feedback is greatly appreciated. 🤗
About Annie I feel the same. Either she has changed or Archie has changed. 😁
Thank you Anita 😊 I don’t like Annie either. To me, Susanna is actually less selfish when compared to her lol 😅
Hi Ms Puddle, I was planning to send you a message but with things have been have so hectic lately. Has your community been affected by lockdown? Wish you all the best. Myra
Thank you Myra for dropping by despite your hectic schedule. 🤗
Some of my friends already lost their jobs due to the economic blow to some local businesses. Most people I know are staying home as much as possible but some are involved with customer facing services so still have to go to work. How about you and your loved ones? Wish you the best of health too, Myra 😘
I remember that video shared on YouTube, Ms Puddle. The sound quality was below par but you could still make out what the author of CCFS was saying. She clearly mocked the belief that Albert was a father-figure or brother-like friend to Candy. Putting that controversial video aside, Nagita has repeatedly eliminated all those ludicrous claims made by some Terry fans about Albert, the most important being the following:
1. Even though some Terry fans want Albert to be dead in the CCFS, Nagita ruins their wishful thinking by clarifying that both Terry and Albert are alive and well.
2. Nagita also makes it crystal clear that Albert is not a father-figure to Candy because the whole “adoption” thing was just a hoax. There’s no way a single male in his 20s could ever adopt a teenage girl. It’s strictly prohibited in most countries in our modern times too. In the manga, anime and the books, Nagita explains that this adoption was bogus but no one dared to defy the “grand patriarch” of the Ardlay family-not even Aunt Elroy. Candy herself also explains that she never considered herself to be “adopted” as her friend, Annie, was by her foster parents. Albert could only be a guardian for Candy until she reached adulthood.
3. While the Terry fans frantically say that there was no bond between Candy and Albert, Nagita comes along with her mighty pen to dispel their delusions yet again. The manga and books provide most notable references to the “invisible threads” which form a strong bond and connection between those two blondes. Let’s not forget that they also spent so much time together during their cohabitation at the “Magnolia”. It’s ironic that the Terry fans believe that the relationship between Candy and Terry which lasted for only a few months when they were in their mere teens was more important than the long-term and profound relationship between two consenting adults during the “Magnolia” years.
All in all, Nagita has given equal opportunities for Terry and Albert to be Candy’s partner in the 1930s. We shouldn’t rule out the possibility that it may not be any of the two men, however. The Terry fans will just have to eat humble pie and accept it. It’s not their choice but Nagita’s as she’s the author of those books. End of.
You’ve hit the nail on the head, Sarah. Awesome comment without being tediously long and verbose. In a nutshell, the ending in the CCFS remains ambiguous. If that annoys some people, that’s their problem. Personally, I don’t mind whether Candy ends up with Terry or Albert. To be upfront, I didn’t enjoy the books much because they were defective. It was as if the writer photocopied the story we all know and simply pasted a few new scenes here and there. I’m glad I didn’t have to pay for that overpriced book but I do feel bad for the person who had bought it for me as a gift.
Agreed. I wouldn’t pay anything for that book either. Instead, I borrowed the Italian version from a friend. I’ve heard that the French version had a few added text which Keiko Nagita fully endorsed. But I don’t think any of those books ever became high-selling merch.
Exactly. Head on over to Amazon and check out how poorly those books are selling. John Schneider’s (screen actor from the Dukes of Hazzard and Smallville) autobiography has sold far more copies in a few weeks than Nagita’s books have sold for almost a decade. Unfortunately, the long-term and incessant bickering between Igarashi and Nagita led to the downfall of a once popular story. Albert inadvertently so, Nagita also confirmed that without Igarashi’s magnificent illustrations, the story in itself isn’t even a fraction as intriguing and appealing. The reason why fanbases for Terry and Albert exist in the first place is because they both epitomize eye-candy as they’re gorgeous.
Another Typo Alert:
I meant to say “Albeit inadvertently so..”
Damn those big hands of mine. Need a bigger phone. lol
The bane of Amazons! 😂
Many thanks Sarah for the summary provided in your comment. I totally agree with you except for the invisible thread. It should be singular, meaning one thread. You’re absolutely right — in the original context it means a very strong bond, “fastened” rather than merely “tied” together. Moreover, in CCFS their cohabitation lasted at least two years, much much longer than that depicted in the manga.
I honestly think Anohito is someone who knew Pony’s Home (pre-construction) by heart. One could argue he might be an orphan too like Candy, and yet this man would have to be well educated enough to like reading many books… 😄
Hi Ms Puddle,
You’re right-it’s “invisible thread”. It’s been a while since I last read that book. I didn’t know that Candy and Albert had been living together for such a long time. It seemed much less in the manga. Come to think of it though, it makes sense since they started living together shortly after the Italian involvement in WWI (1915) and Albert took flight again and went missing about a year prior to the end of the Great War which ended in November 1918. As for Pony’s Home, it would be rather odd if Terry knew more about the establishment than Albert because he had been there only once and for a fleeting moment as he was in a hurry to get to New York.
It’s annoying that Nagita didn’t want to provide any further information. At the Paris book fest, people kept on asking her questions but she kept on refusing to give any answers.
With all the bitter fights within the CC fandom, I’m not surprised that Nagita remains silent on certain questions. It’s not as if her books are selling much so it would make sense for her not to escalate the situation and lose those last remaining fans she’s got. Don’t forget that most of her fans are boomers and Gen Xers. Those of us who are millennials are a minority within this fandom.
Hi Sarah, in the manga it was about a year’s time, if I remember correctly. They started living together around the same time (autumn 1915). Candy then went to New York and returned heartbroken that winter. They continued the living arrangement until the following winter when Albert disappeared on a snowy night. When they reunited in Lakewood it was spring time.
Yes, Sarah, the fact that Anohito could recognize Pony’s Home (before reconstruction) at a glance speaks volumes indeed. 😉
Nagita wanted to sell her novel and she might very well be the one who came up with the idea of “Anohito”… It’s likely a marketing strategy 😔.
I’m sorry. I have posted my comment before it was finished. So it was posted twice. But this time it’s complete.
I would like to put in my own comment here too, not because Ms. Puddle has disabled the comments on the last post, but because I had no intention of getting into any futile arguments with the aforementioned Terryfans who invaded this blog. However, I appreciate the replies to them by Avon, Myra, Sarah, and I especially thank Valkyrie for defending me against those ungrounded accusations.
Since it was myself that was targeted in the first place, being the person who gave the information mentioned in Ms. Puddle’s post, I would like to clarify that neither of that information was a “lie”, as has been stated repeatedly. The only thing that was incorrect was that a group of Greek Terry fans met Nagita in Paris. They were not just Greek, but a group of fans from other countries too who had traveled there, and among them was that person who attacked me and Ms. Puddle here. As you can see, she doesn’t bother to deny the rest of the information Ms. Puddle mentioned (the poor quality video over which they debated on CC forum, the admin stopping that debate, the offending post from @Eleanor Baker which was deleted as well, and finally the closing of the forum.) Of course we don’t know for sure why it was closed; it could be for any reason. However, it seems rather too much for the admin to close it just because one member posted something insulting. She just had to ban that person, and that would be all.
A characteristic example about that forum was mentioned amongst all those comments of the Terry fans.They used to make fun of Susanna’s amputation with the admin joining in. I think that speaks volumes. Laughing at Susanna’s disability and calling Albert a pedophile.It’s no use debating with people who have that way of thinking.
Also I have to add that, as Valkyrie said, anyone has the right to share any information they read on a public blog, as long as they don’t offend anyone.
@ Interstellar. I agree with you that disabling the comments on that post will prevent anyone from giving those persons the answer they deserve. But on the other hand this might lead to an endless debating and also it would be a waste of time. Don’t be too shocked; I can assure you that worse things have been said, and probably will also be said in the future.
Hi Fay,
You really don’t need to thank me at all. You can also rest assured that I’m not a sensitive person as there’s not a single troll alive which can shock me. LOL
I just want to ask you a question before I proceed with my comment. You mentioned that you had seen that troll (Eleanor_Baker). If so, where is she from and what’s her age? I have a reason why I’m asking you these questions. I’ll explain later.
Looking forward to your reply.
Sarah
I almost forgot to ask for the link to the video you’re talking about. Could you post the link here if it’s accessible?
Thanks,
Sarah
I’m not sure about posting the link to the video. Ms. Puddle has mentioned it before on her blog. It was that one in which Nagita is asked about Candy and Albert’s relationship, and replies that it was a romantic one, and not that of a father-daughter or brother-sister. That video has a poor audio quality and Nagita’s words can’t be heard clearly at all. That was the reason why Terry fans questioned the accuracy of her statement and started a debate on CT Paradise. I don’t know what they wrote, but it seems the admin closed that debate, and as a result Eleanor Baker posted an insulting comment (which she defines as just being funny). That post was immediately deleted and she was banned for a month. Later, CT Paradise was shut down.
I’m sorry, I don’t have the link to the aforementioned video. I think it was withdrawn later because the person who made it (Sweet Poupee) said there were people sharing it without her permission.
Hi Fay,
I’m trying to reply to your message but my post isn’t going through. I’ll try again so you may receive the same reply twice. I wanted to thank you for all this info.
Sarah
Hello, Sarah.
Eleanor Baker is Greek, as I am, and is a member of the Greek Terry forum. That forum was created when a number of Terry fans left the other Greek CC forum because of rude behavior and insulting comments. Ever since they have their own place to worship Terry and abuse Albert (I don’t know which they do most). As for the other forum, it is indeed most affiliated to Albert, but nobody insults and ridicules Terry. They just acknowledge he’s not the main character in CC story. A charming character, but not the central one.
To answer your other question, there are some personal data of every member in both forums, including birth dates. As I have seen, she was born in 1976. I hope it’s all right for me to say that. Anyway, most of us CC fans who comment are about that age, more or less.
Hi Fay,
Thanks for answering my questions. I already knew this info but I just wanted further corroboration from an additional source. That Greek troll (Eleanor_Baker) is a compulsive liar who pretends she’s not Greek even though people call her out for her BS. She recently said she’s from Scotland. LOL
That troll is ashamed she’s Greek for some strange reason and she’s also ashamed of her age because she persistently claims she’s in her 20s even though she clearly looks like she’s a middle-aged, traditional-Mediterranean-built female well within her mid 40s-early 50s.
It’s such a pity that a middle-aged woman like her behaves in such an infantile way. Her whole attitude is cringe-fest. Not even kids go nuts over cartoons like she does. I actually feel sorry for her. She’s a mess.
@Sarah: Sorry, I meant to write “she was born in 1970”. I’ve made her younger. LOL.
I will say again that I hope it’s not wrong to state information like that. Besides, it is stated clearly in the forum for all to see, even if it’s personal data.
Hi Fay,
I’ve been trying to post this message to you so you may receive the same post twice.
Thanks for the info. I already knew this data but I just wanted further corroboration from another source. That Greek troll (Eleanor_Baker) is a compulsive liar who denies being Greek and keeps on changing her nationality. Recently, she mentioned that she’s Scottish. LOL
That troll seems to be ashamed she’s Greek for some strange reason as she’s also ashamed of her age because she claims that she’s in her 20s which is ludicrous because she clearly looks way older than that. She’s the typical traditional Mediterranean-built female well within her mid-40s to early-50s.
It’s so hard to fathom that a middle-aged woman like her behaves like some petulant child over a cartoon character. I honestly feel so sorry for her. She’s a mess.
@Sarah: No, I can assure you she’s Greek. She speaks fluent Greek, no doubt about that. She has also posted a photograph of hers along with Nagita in Paris (if it was her in the picture) and she is certainly not a 20-year old. I don’t know why one has to lie about their age. Besides, most of active CC fans in the CC community are in our forties, since we first knew Candy from the anime which came out in 1970’s. No need to pretend we are younger in order to justify our love for (or perhaps obsession over) this story. Moreover, this novel is also for a grown up public, so people of any age can read it without being considered childish.
@Fay: I think I’ve seen that photo because several of them have been circulating all over social media. She sure doesn’t look 20 and she doesn’t look Scottish either. I can’t understand why she keeps on lying so much about her age. There’s nothing wrong about getting old. I’ll be her age in circa 20 years’ time, provided that COVID-19 doesn’t get to me first. LOL
The problem isn’t her age but her psychologically disturbed state. She needs therapy. You can notice from her very very long posts that her thoughts are in a state of disarray. She doesn’t make any sense.
I would like to put in my own comment here too, not because Ms. Puddle has disabled the comments on the last post, but because I had no intention of getting into any futile arguments with the aforementioned Terryfans who invaded this blog. However, I appreciate the replies to them by Avon, Myra, Sarah, and I especially thank Valkyrie for defending me against that ungrounded accusations.
It’s been a pleasure defending you against that sad old troll @Eleanor_Baker or @Patty. I agree with @Interstellar that those accounts belong to a single lunatic who’s desperate because she’s “homeless” ever since she got banned from multiple sites. Even the Terry fans don’t want to interact with her. She’s probably going to be pestering Ms Puddle since she has nowhere else to go.
Correction: “Against those ungrounded accusations”. I guess Terry fans have made me too angry. LOL.
Hello Ms Puddle,
I am adding my comment under this section because you have disabled the comments under your recent post.
Since you have allowed those two pathetic trolls @Patty and @Eleanor_Baker to spill their toxic and mentally-damaged drivel, it would only be fair if you included the relevant responses to those two lunatic Terry-fans. I can understand that you want to disable the comment section but you’re not being fair to all those folks who have supported you all these years.
From my part, I will clearly state that those two idiotic Terry-fans humiliate and demean their own community. That’s why their own blogs get shut down one after the other. It’s obvious that poor @Eleanor_Bake is jealous of younger and highly educated women such as @Avon and that is made clear through her psychotic rants. Yet, no matter how much she drools over @Avon, @Eleanor_Baker remains a deadbeat loser and she just keeps on shooting her own self in the foot with her unlimited stupidity. If Terry was a real person, he would have spat at the ageing faces of those two Terry-fanatics as he had done with that other toxic creature-Eliza.
I’ll end this post by thanking you for your kind wishes, Ms Puddle.
Interstellar
Hi Interstellar and it’s great to read your posts again.
I agree with you that Ms Puddle should include our responses to those silly trolls but she doesn’t want to bother with those 2 clowns anymore so she’s decided to close the comment section entirely. It’s disturbing how that troll under the alias of “Eleanor Baker” is so obsessed with “Avon”. She’s so delusional that she’s even lying about working at the same university as Avon. I wouldn’t be surprised if she tried to stalk Avon because she’s a raging lunatic.
Fortunately, most members of the CC fanbase are reasonable. That’s why they’ve shunned those 2 stupid Terry fans. Gotta pity those 2 trolls..
Hello Myra,
I’ve also noticed that @Eleanor_Baker is particularly psychotic over @Avon, presumably because @Avon is simply ignoring her, hence, making poor @Eleanor_Baker even more obsessed and insane. Lol
Needless to mention that Ms Puddle will constantly be harassed by those Terry-crazed trolls ever since their blogs shut down. Not even their own community wants those losers around and posting all those long rants on their blogs. Poor @Patty and @Eleanor_Baker only got those old and worn pics of Terry to lick on. Pathetic and sad.
Hello Interstellar and Myra,
Nice to hear from you again, but since I didn’t have time to read all comments in detail, I think I’d better close the section for everybody.
I did not intentionally omit anyone’s responses either, and perhaps I disabled the comments when you two were still writing? IDK
I will check again when I have time later this evening.
Hello Ms Puddle,
Thank you for your reply. I appreciate it.
Take note that I don’t intend on telling you how you should run your own blog; however, it would only be fair if the people getting targeted by trolls have the opportunity to respond.
I’ve also noticed that the comments posted by the trolls @Patty and @Eleanor_Baker most certainly belong to one acutely bizarre and lonely person. This is easily noticeable because the style of writing is identical. This troll has been shitposting with those exact same horrendously lengthy rants on many other CC/CCFS-related websites lashing out at people who call her out for her obsessive disorder. I just wanted to bring this to your attention.
Regards,
Interstellar
Greetings!
It’s been a long time since I last commented but work has increased considerably. I’m also not getting notifications even though I’m a subscriber. I renewed my subscription and perhaps I’ll be getting notifications from now on.
*Ms Puddle: I’m sorry you’re attacked by that Terry fan. It’s not the first time though she’s harassed you. Just ignore her.
*Interstellar: You beat me to it. I was just about to write the same as you concerning that Terry fan. You’re right. She’s one person using another account too. It’s easy to notice because she keeps on repeating herself. She’s been harassing other fanpages apart from this one.
*Ms Puddle: I’ll get back to you some other time when the workload will lessen.

Hi Lakewood, glad to hear from you again! I hope you’re doing well, despite the global concern of the pandemic.
No rush in getting back to me. Best wishes to you.
Thank you Interstellar for your understanding. I hope this doesn’t really bother you much. I decided to disable the comments section this morning but didn’t have time to do that until I sat down with my laptop this afternoon.
Hello Ms Puddle,
As specified in my initial comment, I understand why you disabled the comments but on the other hand, it’s not fair for those who cannot respond to that demented pro-Terry troll (apparently, you’ve realized that @Patty and @Eleanor_Baker are two accounts which belong to that same idiot stalking you and this website).
That said, it’s not me you should thank but those people who went out of their way to support you. Unfortunately, you’re blocking their way to responding and that’s not fair. Presumably, if you were in their position, you wouldn’t be too pleased about it either.
From what I’ve read, however, most of those people have already responded in this section. I would suggest (take this only as friendly advice and nothing more than that) you give that pro-Terry troll the link to the responses she deserves in this section. If she wants a further response from me, I’ll be more than pleased to reiterate my utmost and unapologetic disrespect for her pathetic excuse of existence myself in this section. You know that I have no qualms or misgivings in saying things as they are whether stupid trolls like @Patty/@Eleanor_Baker like it or not.
Regards,
Interstellar
Yes I know it’s not fair, Interstellar. I honestly didn’t check who have responded or not when I took the drastic action. Is it only you and Myra? Anyway, please bear with me for now. I might reopen the comments later after everyone has cooled down a bit
Hello Ms Puddle,
As I’m a person who is always upfront and straight-forward with you and everyone else, I’ll say once again that everyone should have the right to express his/her opinion irrespective of being a pro-Terry or pro-Albert fan.
You know very well that I’ve stated quite a few times that I’m neither a Terry nor an Albert fan. I simply enjoy the CC manga and I also find this specific blog interesting and intelligent. I really don’t care whether Candy ends up with Terry or Albert. She could be shagging the milkman for all I care. I’ve stated this over and over again and nothing further is required from my part.
However, I definitely do not appreciate it when stupid and cheap trolls such as @Patty/@Eleanor_Baker barge in and keep on posting rubbish just because she’s like a cat in heat over a fictitious CC character. That troll is also an emetic liar because she keeps on claiming that all Terry-fans are civil but we all know that’s not the case. Simply head on over to any pro-Terry YouTube channel or website (at least those very few dying remaining ones) and read those disgusting comments against amputees such as Susanna. Those comments derive predominately from the Terry-fans (not all, apparently) and that’s an indisputable fact.
On February 28, 2020, and onward, you got one hell of a taste regarding one nasty pro-Terry troll who keeps one getting kicked out of other blogs because she’s a lunatic. Many people from the CC community came to your defense when you got harassed by her. Since you have permitted that stupid troll to mar your blog, it would be fair if you also and equivalently permit all those people to respond to that emetic troll. Unfortunately, you have-albeit inadvertently-become invidious against those who support and respect you. Therefore, since we have arrived to this unpalatable outcome, at least allow all parties to equally and fairly participate in this interpersonal altercation. It’s not desirable by any means but since we’re here, we might as well be judicious to all parties involved.

Interstellar
Hello Interstellar, for your interest, I’ve re-enabled the comments section, as I have told you in one of my earlier replies. Of course, please feel free to ignore this notice.
With best wishes to you,
Ms Puddle
Typo alert-
I meant “keeps on getting kicked out” and not “keeps one getting kicked out..”.
That’s what happens when a 6ft 2 woman with huge hands like me tries to type on a puny cell phone. Lol
Hello Ms Puddle,
I have received your notification. Thank you for re-enabling the comment section. This is what is right and democratic.
Regards,
Interstellar
Glad you mentioned that cause I got an email notification from that troll called @Patty and she’s going off on another tangent frothing at the mouth like a rabid dog. Didn’t bother to read her comment in full cause I almost fell asleep. She’s boring AF. If @Patty likes men to beat her up like Terry beats up women, that’s her problem. Who knows? Maybe she’s got a fetish for douche-bags like Terry. There are a few messed up sickos like her in the world, unfortunately. Tbh, I don’t blame Ms Puddle for disabling the comment section. Those trolls have been bothering her too much after they got kicked out of the other forums.
Hi Valkyrie, have we met before? Sorry I don’t recall. Anyway, thanks for your understanding.
No worries-Ms Puddle. Tbh, I really don’t care what that @Patty dimwit has to say, anyway. I didn’t even bother going through that entire rant of hers even though she put so much effort into it. Got better things to do in my life than read about her psychological problems. She should pay a shrink for that. Since she likes men beating her up to a pulp, that’s her life and at the end of the day, it’s her funeral.😉
Hi Ms Puddle & Valkyrie, thanks you for your awesome posts. I really like Ms Puddle’s drawings. They’re impressive to say the least. Valkyrie, I actually read Patty’s reply and you’re right-she’s completely nuts. What’s funny is that she keeps on going on and on saying the same things and she admits that she sympathizes with men who hit women. She probably gets hit by men a lot to the point where she believes it’s normal. It’s one of the effects of Stockholm syndrome. There are quite a few women like her who find this abuse acceptable. It seems that she’s an old woman who comes from an underdeveloped and uneducated environment. Normal and healthy people don’t talk like her.
You didn’t miss much by not reading her reply. It doesn’t make any sense and it’s repetitive like a broken record. I agree with you. If she likes those Terry-style scumbags beating her up, then let her get beaten up. She likes it. Each to their own, I guess.
