Lifetime

[hawkida]

My "lifetime" membership of the Red Dwarf fan club has expired. They finally put together a new fanzine after a ridiculous amount of time - over a year I believe, and I didn't get one. I chased to see if it had gone astray or there had been some database error or similar, but no:

"We have had a revision of complimentary members list.
[...]
So in affect any previous complimentary magazines are no
longer available. And this would require you to become a
member again, if you so wish."

I'm not going to pay, and I don't think I actually want written material from people who write that badly.

So does that mean I'm dead?

They're all dead, Dave

I suppose you could claim if you're now officially dead you should get a holographic copy of the magazine :-)

Or complain that life means life, you didn't want to get out after a couple of years for good behaviour!

(trying to make you laugh, to soften the rejection)

Oh, of all the people who might decide to reject me, they're probably the ones who can upset me least.
