Default Re: Horse Porn? Seriously? (Elaine content!!)

Haha, the Amazon review is great -- a shameless jump at a chance to plug her hubby's books piled on top of admitting she hadn't read the book herself, with 1 out of 48 people finding her review helpful. And now she has posted on her blog about the "hate" she has gotten for her "review."

I don't recall the horse porn thing but nobody can read everything. I'm pretty sure if even a forum addict as severe as myself didn't see it then or see it talked about in all the time since Elaine left, its importance was then and is definitely now at best miniscule and indicative of pretty much nothing about 2+2.

I was reading frequently when Elaine left, and people were on her for being ridiculously argumentative, making silly statements and poor arguments, and taking some extreme positions, in an often very self-righteous manner, on minor matters. Her now saying this was all over some horse porn that I and I bet most people at the time never even heard of seems extremely disingenuous and self-serving.

As is, ridiculously so, her blog's new "explanation" of why she made such a bad, transparently shilling non-review of someone's poker book.
