Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

I was wondering when you'd say that!
OK, I admit it.. Miss Ellie WAS a Mary Sue, deliberately too... but she's not anymore!!!

What this thread needs, is the quivering voice of Scooby Doo going "ooover heereee" just before the mental image is promptly thwacked with a cake or something simular.

I'd add more, but I'm worried it'd turn into a rather large debate/rant/etc about Mary Sues, self inserts and included the human condition commentary. I blame overexposure (from other sources) for my lack of immediate laughter. ;D
Say.. is "Having suffered exposure to far too many Mary Sues" emo enough to qualify for an Angst-Sue title?

Too self-referential? Or does that make it even more appropriate?
BTW, my main in LotRO is a pseudo-self-insert. I needed a Nordic name and happened to know the Icelandic spelling of mine. So Njall of Dale is a lore-master currently sitting in the Prancing Pony Inn at Bree. (Yes, Dale is actually one of the four official origin points for Men (humans) in the game. Gotta love it.)

Well it's most defenately self-fulfilling. Mary Sueism because of overexposure to Mary Sueism will only lead to more exposure. FEAR.
On the second note, my old World of Warcraft main tended to hit off pretty high on the Mary Sue tests I did on her, though that was much because of what others made her into. Neither self-insertion or Mary Sueism have to be a bad thing after all. (They're usually just a very blatant issue when they are)
This came up over on the LotRO forums and I didn't understand the reference. After 16 months of GG, I found this so funny I almost did the blowing coffee out my nose thing.
Anyway, enjoy.
