Sounds normal to me.

With online chat, depending on your style of English, you could be "seen" 
as an a-hole or not one.  Once people create a false image of you, there's 
nothing you can do, ever.  We create false images of people in our heads 
because we never see their face and messages don't have facial expressions.

The closest thing to this behavior is picking a random sentence from a 
novel and holding it against the author (forever) if it doesn't sound all 
that amusing.  You might not even buy his books....

Speaking of not buying an author's books....
The reason I think Stephen King is not talented at all is because all of 
his movies are silly, and all based around special effects.  So he sells 
more books.  And everyone tells you that his books are better than the 
movies.  Ya reckon??!?
