Oh goodness, trolls. And Monkey Island secrets, which are always fab!

1. Fry/Leela is one of my favorite pairings in the history of ever. I'll never quite undersand how a cartoon that mostly comedy has some of the best writing, interaction, and character development I've ever seen.

I'll also add that the world could use more men like Fry. Sure, he's kind of an idiot at times, but he's an honest, fun sort of guy with childlike wonder who genuinely cares about the woman he loves.


13. Oh good lord. So, everyone who draws furry is a, what was that word again, "furfag?" I haven't heard anything so disgusting, ignorant, and arrogant in a long while. And here, I thought part of the joy of fandoms was different people coming together.


26. Another example of an incredibly ignorant statement. I don't mean "you don't know what you're missing" kind of ignorance. I mean, just because something it psuedo-Asian or what-have-you, that overrides any other merits it has. You even admit that it's well-written. But it's "weeaboo" (whatever), so clearly even Bratz would be preferable.


27. The only problem I'd have would be the term Manga. I don't know, but I'm all kinds of interested in comics. I just think that using the term "manga" for original work from the states is just...well, a little bit lame, but also a bit detrimental to American comics in the long run. If you have an original comic published, it's a comic. Especially if it looks like that. I'm tired of getting pigeon-holed as a wannabe manga-artist (nothing could be further from the truth) just because I like the concept of being the writer and artist for my own independant story.


40. Mm, maybe Martin Freeman. Adorable!


41. A) Don't be ashamed or scared. Come on in, the fandom's fine. There's a bit of jostling, but if you read the comments to a lot of similar secrets, you'll see that the older fans are pretty darn nice (or at least, that's my experience).
B) Thank you for using the picture tha pretty much sums up the entire series for me. The Doctor (my Doctor, at that), holding out his hand. Man, how can you not love this show?

[rhosyn-du.livejournal.com]

I just have to stop to express my love for your icon. That is all.

Are...are you trolling on your actual account?

How much of a dick can you be? I thought the whole point of internet dickweedery was that normal person+total anonymity=complete jerkhole.

[loticae.livejournal.com]

Not trolling :3 And I don't really care to hide behind a fake account. Sorry to disappoint.

[xanykaos.livejournal.com]

How is that not trolling?

[loticae.livejournal.com]

I've always defined trolling as doing something completely unserious to elicit a butthurt response. Since that wasn't my intention, I don't define it as trolling. ' w '

[xanykaos.livejournal.com]

I'm confused, then. What were you doing if not that? Trying to piss someone off for funsies...copy-pasting "furfag" onto a comment to someone seems to fall into that category.

[loticae.livejournal.com]

Again, I wasn't trying to piss you off. But I did do it for funsies! :D (I like that word, I'm going to start using it. Thanks!)

[mikkeneko.livejournal.com]

You're trolling. And uncreatively. /lifequit IMO.

41 OP

[sammywhatammy]

Oh, it's not the Classic fans I'm worried about, I've also heard their good reputation. It's the fans who rage over Rose vs. Martha. I have never understand why it's such a big deal to ensure supremacy of one pairing versus another, but like. Wow. These ship wars were infamous, and I was aware of them long before I ever saw DW, even though I don't pay attention to fandoms I don't know.

I know, right? :D I LOVE that image SO MUCH. (I love Nine SO MUCH.)

Re: 41 OP

[xanykaos.livejournal.com]

Ah. Yeah, I know what you mean. It amazed me when I first encountered that vitriol. I mean, I like Rose better, personally. I like her dynamic better. I didn't hate Martha, I just wasn't as fond of her. And then I suddenly encounted oodles of Rose-haters who were all "Martha is so much better!!!11!!" and... man, it freaked me out. I have to admit, it's kind of left a bitter taste for Martha in my mouth. But then, I know people who feel the same way about Rose.

The shipping... I will ship Doctor/Rose forever, but it's funny to try and make it like any one pairing is supreme (I will also admit that the concept of Doctor/Martha confuses me more than annoys me), given the fact that the Doctor's been around for ages and has had many, many companions, and really, loves them all, in his own way. (Me, my favorite companion's Evelyn Smythe! I swear, I think I'd ship them, but it would almost be too much of a teenybopper thing to do to such a great relationship as they had!)


But yeah. Ship wars kind of destroy everything. I thought Rose got the most hate until someone posted a secret with the horrible graphics of Martha with mean things written on them. I just don't get it, man.

Re: 41 OP

[sammywhatammy]

I agree. I like Martha, she's a great character. But she's an almost-doctor who wasn't as smart as a high school dropout xD; Uhhhh. Whut. I find that funny, in an endearing way. Thankfully, I'm not swayed to hate a character, pairing, or series because of its bad fans...I just dislike the bad fans 8D I dunno.

Like I said in my secret, I'm all over NinexRose. And TenxRose is adorable too, but I feel bad that Martha got ignored because Ten was moping the entire third season :[ (I love Four/Romana. I don't really have an all-time favorite companion, though...) Though, I think if Ten gets to fiddling with Donna, I'll be very disappointed. I'm not fond of Donna at ALL XD;;

Me neither. :[

Re: 41 OP

[xanykaos.livejournal.com]

I'd rather Ten not get fiddling with anyone, really. I never was a fan of Ten/Martha, not because OMG DOCTOR/ROSE 4-EVER!!!, but because...well, I just didn't find any chemistry there. She liked him. Honestly, if you got whisked away by a foxy little number in pinstripes who happened to be a ridiculously intellegent alien who could taken you anywhere and anywhen in the universe while being adorable and funny in the face of all danger, etc... well, who wouldn't fall in love just a little bit. But he didn't like her back. And I don't think it was just the moping over Rose (though I did think even from a Time Lord's perspective, maybe it would've been "too soon" really). I just didn't see the chemistry. Sometimes you like someone who just doesn't like you back. It happens.

It was Martha's pining that kind of pushed me from "Oh, a new companion" to "I kind of want her to go away." I will be equally disappointed if the Doctor "fiddles" with Donna. It's just...after the whole relationship with Rose and the Martha pining thing (well, really, just after the former)... I've had enough of canon romance for now, thanks. I seriously want the next-next companion to be a bloke from the past, or an older woman or something. Something that doesn't automatically go "SHIP ME!" (well, no more than normal).

I gotta agree with Four/Romana. I've only seen a tiny itty-bitty clip of them, but the chemistry sort of lept off the screen.
