If it makes you feel any better, I got an e-rejection from them today in which the editor described my plot as "creaky" (quotation marks his, used them several times). I mean, is it creaky or "creaky", man, what are trying to say? This same editor also went to great pains in last year's issue to explain that the story of mine they ran was selected by another editor. Implying that he wouldn't have chosen it.

Let's not submit to them again, eh?
