    Not buying it either. Crazy lady is trying to do some damage control in the face of an inevitable lawsuit. And is that her store? Sean C was right, that place looks like a pit. #oceanavebooks

    Even the "explanation" screams of LOL CRAZY LADY NO because of how she swears it was perfectly reasonable and normal to play internet Nancy Drew and Google-Fu him into identity and randomly show up at his house.

    Only a crazy person would think such due diligence in outting then meeting someone from an online forum in such a way would be normal. And only a crazy person would then use such twisted logic as an explanation thinking that other folks would be like "Oh! No totally. I see what happened. Purely a misunderstanding!"

    People, if all those people I used to routinely piss of on LiveJournal were so ambitious as this chick was, I would be the Xena of the Internet routinely looking behind my back for random e-Warlords looking for revenge.

    She's a crazy and she broke the first law of the Internet. Because it's supposed to stay on the Internet. #oceanavebooks

    Not buying it. As much as I like kooky used book store owners who are sloppy (and often own cats!), no one who online stalks (finding out his real name, what he does for a living, where he lives) and then shows up on said person's front doorstep wants to make nice.

    @pony_express: Wait a second, you mean to tell me you've never gotten a negative reply to your comments on Gawker or TechCrunch, hacked their servers, tracked down the IP address of the person who left it, installed spyware on their machine, found their Google calendar, showed up at their gym and confronted them in the sauna?

    The first rule of Book Fight Club is, you do not talk (or yelp) about Book Fight Club.

    So she's nutty. And did something a bit madcap, like in a romantic comedy. This could be "You've Got Mail" for a new era. Where hideous bad feeling leads to Googling vengeance, awful online invective, and intriguing romance.

    She was clearly picturing herself as Meg Ryan being adorably miffed like that actress could pull off in 1989. Of course she went to his house! To her, that's where a lifetime of Hollywood trash led her- to believe there'd be some delightfully witty comic bickering before passionate lovemaking.

    "Your Honor, I move that these two crazy kids kiss and realize that they're the soulmate they've both been searching for."

    Me? I'm just glad bookstores still exist, I don't care if a crazy bitch owns it. #oceanavebooks

    I don't know why he gets a "zero star rating for honesty", she could be lying just as easily. She *did* send those nutso emails and she *did* show up at his house unannounced... Doesn't sound like a trustworthy source to me. #oceanavebooks
