Bally, I don't think that's the case. I saw her interact with several people at the convention and she literally never smiles. Also, when she was working her Ipad on the patio, one of the geeks came outside complaining about how hung over he was in a joking way. She just stopped what she was doing and glared at him until he went back inside.
Some people are their own worst enemies.
Those times in life when franksolich has been sour and dour, or crabby and unsocial, or arrogant and overbearing, others haven't thought well of him, and they were right.
nadin gets no sympathy from me; she's in total control of her "image."
