You know that feeling you get when you want to punch a dead person? Again. And again. And again.
In summary, I just watched a video about Terry Goodkind.
It was a vid by Daniel Greene, one of my favorite YouTubers of all time and eternity.-

His egotistical insanity where he thought his books trancended fantasy while also calling fantasy garbage. He also said his books are better than most others. He blatantly borrowed from authors, including Rob Jordan. He insulted Fantasy as a genre. He said that world building and lore is terrible. He insulted his cover artist, and not in a joking way.
Now for his most ridiculous and terrible crime. All the other stuff, I can dismiss.
But not this.
Aight, the year is 2007, Robert Jordan is dying from a heart condition and trying to get WoT done before he dies. He misses a convention that Terry happens to be going to. Terry talks about how he isn't there and openly mocks him, says that he went to the doctor recently and was told his was as strong as a 16 year old's.
And then karma struck. Terry Goodkind, the one who said his heart was strong, who mocked Robert Jordan, books, fantasy as a whole, the industry, authors, what good content should be, died of a heart condition.
