>>23 There is a nice and normal tumblr person called enchanted by hiddles who lives in Berlin and went along. She said it was mortifying, but that HL was actually trying to be kind by deflecting away from the crazy.

The most revealing thing was the comment by the culprit that the q&a was "my big chance". I have come across this phenomenon before. My mother in law bought a white outfit for my wedding day (no. I wasn't Bridezilla, truly, but just no) and when I called this into question she said in an incredibly hurt voice, "But it's MY BIG DAY."
