So, I recently got extremely fed up with being attacked for something by some immature unfounded callous idiot. (Sorry, curtailing rant)

Suffice it to say, I know everyone on this site and elsewhere has at one time or another had to deal with someone attacking your interest in Severus Snape as a character.

What has been the most surprising, shocking, or hurtful instancem Was it RL or online? And was it a stranger or someone close? Was it random comments or did it feel like a personal attackm

And most importantly, how did you deal with it? Or have you been able to deal with it? Did you get past it?
