You can only fool some of the Globe columnists some of the time

Last month, as you may recall, a syndicated columnist the Globe runs got caught sincerely answering a question based on a Seinfeld episode. Somebody tried the same shtik on Miss Conduct, but she was having none of it (second question).

Writers for the globe read
Writers for the globe read children's books? Sounds about right, hedge fund Henrys globe only looks like a real paper compared to the Herald. Sad after watching spotlight to read the globe today and see what it has become...sports and a poorly written stories about how Charlie Baker is the greatest and Boston should do whatever is best for carburbinites who visit/work here.
Nothing wrong with reading children's books
These people have kids too, ya know.
Harry Potter
A lot of adults have read the Harry Potter books.
I don't know what this means
I don't know what this means and I got that the story being told paralleled Harry's but it didn't click that it was a complete spoof until you pointed it out here.
Why bother?
Yeah, it's kinda funny, but why waste the space on a fake submission, when I'm sure there are plenty of real ones?
As a warning?
That she's on to these young whippersnappers and to just cut it the heck out right this second?
Or, inspiration
It could make more people to try.
Miss Conduct is not to be trifled with!
Advice columns may seem trivial to some, but I will take sharp, insightful writing anywhere I can find it.

Big fan of Miss Conduct.
