*hugs you and passes the bottle* That sucks -- I don't know which story it was (I'm horribly behind because of exchange stuff) but it doesn't matter, that just is mean. If the person in question didn't get what you were trying to do, it's their fault, not yours.

I don't even get reviews and very few comments which makes me wonder why I bother. But I think I'd rather be ignored than have people savage me.

The car thing is insane. Can you check with your insurance company? I know my car window was once broken in a parking lot overnight. Never found the culprit. I was able to file the claim with my car insurance company and they covered all or most of it.
