not quite
I'm not saying everything Colleen has said is obviously the work of a madwoman, just that even that which is apparently rational and reasonable isn't really objective, it's just a rationalisation. Colleen hates, and is envious of, Julia and has been for the past 3 months. She spends most of her days slagging julia off on this site and whining about her in the chat room. Today's outburst may seem reasonable, but tomorrow she'll find yet another reason to hate julia, and the next day still another.
I've met julia many times and she's a lovely person. She's done nothing to put herself in the public eye and doesn't get paid for what she does, so I honestly think it's quite cruel, as well as deeply sad, for colleen to attack her like she does. If colleen actually thinks the target of her hatred is anorexic (which julia is not) then that's even worse. Colleen is unfortunately just a sad, lonely old woman who feels the need to lash out at others to make herself feel slightly less worthless. Please Colleen, stop emabarassing yourself.
