I only read the first book so I don't ship it. But I lol'd at your secret, its creative XD.

Whilst I agree that Light wasn't justice.. I don't think L was, either. He said himself that he would give Light the death sentence if he found proof he was Kira.. and isn't that pretty much the same as what Light was doing? Ridding the world of "bad guys" and all? I mean, yes, Light did kill thousands of people, but no matter how immoral he might have been, does L really have the right to judge him? I think not. Plus, when L got his hands on the Death Note, he was actually honestly considering using it himself (to test out if it was real or fake, I think. My memory fails me a bit here), so no, I don't believe he's justice, either.

And we all know what happens when someone decides to "just test" the DN to see if it's real~

39. I've tried to love Death Note. I look at the art and think it's gorgeous, but by the time I started actually reading it, it ended up being overshadowed by other serial killer/mystery-centric things that I found more compelling (Namely Monster and Dexter). I don't like it, but I don't dislike it either.

59. You're not the only one who thought that. Far from it. You're also not the only one who felt awful afterwards.

60. Who doesn't? I mean err what you freak what is wrong with you D:

[identity profile] apocalypsos.livejournal.com 2008-02-02 12:08 am (UTC)(link)
44. My brother made me proud by completely getting it. He went with a friend and the friend's girlfriend, and when the girlfriend complained that they never find out where the monster comes from or what it is or whatever, he railed into her, all, "That's not the point!" And then he proceeded to go into this explanation about how it's about the little flailing people in the streets who don't know anything and what they would do and how they would react if our hometown was attacked, and he genuinely made me want to hug the life out of him with fannish glee.

I adored the movie AND the camerawork, and I was one of those lame dorks who had to leave because it was nauseating me.

60. Heh. Well, that's because they're perfect for one another. ;)

61. You know, I've thought of the "If she were a man ..." comparison before, but the Spike comparison is surprisingly apt.

45. OH HI I LOVE YOU!!! God, I loved that show ^__^ Now, if only I know the american name so I could look up the DVDs...

8. Aaand picture is related how? I'm just saying, those are kickass cosplayers, but I can't see the connection to the secret.
9. ... I REALLY want to know how this picture is related to the secret. MOstly because it's bizarre to the point of brainbreakage.
15. Thank you for writing this, and I support your efforts. Fight on, for everlasting multipairing tolerance!
21. I... have seen rule 34 of them. Granted, there was nothing prony going on, just the two being naked, but still... I have seen it. I wish I could unsee it, but I can't.
29. Man, word on every account. I haven't played the game, I admit to this, but everything I hear about Genesis kind of makes me raise my eyebrows in dubious doubt of Nomura knowing what it is he's doing.
31. Care to divulge some reasons? I like it, because I think it's fun, has neat fightscenes, and loveable characters. What is it in the show that makes you reject it?
47. I hold an embarrasing love for crossovers in all their shapes and forms, so if you want to write them, I say write them.
60. YOu and the rest of the internet. Myself not included, because I think it's funnier to imagine them as crazy buddies who just want to blow shit up, but if it's what tickle your slashbones, I say go for it you crazy diamond you.
61. I am not a big part of Supernatural, I just want to say that I loved your Princess Bride quote and the context it was put in.

If the Namine cosplayer was a little blonder and American, she would look exactly like the person that I'm talking about, so it was related, just secretly? I'm not railing on the cosplayers or anything- that wasn't the point of the secret.

22. I am too much like Howard Moon for this to work. And I am a girl. Weird. (Yes, I have actually made a stationary village type...er, village? Not as anal as his but man, was it ever sweet.)

43. My problem with the ending was not the deaths of all three of those characters. It was the fact that the show simply ended there. I would have loved a quick next scene of Jet reading Spike's obituary or cleaning Spike's gun. I wouldn't what Jet to cry or anything of the like. That's not in the character. All I want to show is that the man understood that Spike is dead. Faye would walk into the lounge. She, herself, wouldn't say anything about Spike's death either. Instead, she's standing there eating an orange and looking at Jet.

Faye: So, what now?
Jet: We're going to Earth.
Faye: Earth? Why, is there a big bounty?
Jet: No. I want my dog back.

They could have ended it right there knowing that they were looking for Ed and Ein and I would have been happy with that ending. Is it a happy ending? No. Spike is still dead. But it would have showed the crew moving on. And that's all I wanted.

59. Yeah, I thought the same thing. And then I felt even worse because my second thought was, "Man, Terry Gilliam can't catch a break."

26. Can I ask why? I mean, I can understand not liking a pairing, but losing respect for the people who do like it makes it sound like there's another level to it for you.

59. You're not the only one. All of the people I spoke to immediately after had exactly the same thought.

I was really reluctant to play it when I got The Orange Box, but I am so glad I did. I've never had so much fun in my life.

I've been looking for a fan community or some way to meet up with cool kids and play the game [on 360, woe I do not have it on the PC] but I've found nothing. It makes me sad.

Come with me now on a journey through space and time! I told my friend at work that I find Howard more attractive than Vince, and she shunned me. I'm glad you recognise his good qualities as well. ♥

Re: 22

[identity profile] betise-mcmutton.livejournal.com 2008-02-02 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Though I usually appreciate Vince's type better, I find myself strangely attracted to Howard. Must be because he looks exactly a friend of mind who is a jazz nerd.

9. BUT A WOLF?!

10. Ogod, I have that parody BOOKMARKED, I love it so. ;;b

24. ... Holy crap, I think the anime version is hotter than the manga version. What is this madness. D:

26. Might I ask why you dislike the pairing?

31. To each their own! Do you not like the plot, characters, or general show?

39. I think it's just tedious to go through the whole "I know he knows what I'm doing, so I'll do the OPPOSITE of what he thinks I'll do but what if he knows I know that he knows and he successfully counteracts what I plan on doing, so maybe I should go back to the original plan or make a whole OTHER different plan that he will never figure out, unless he does" etc etc etc. :/ I really only liked it for L, and then [spoiler] happened.

42. You have obviously not seen the amazing that is STRIPPER!VASH! >D (Okay, m'just joking XD)

44. Huh? I rather liked the movie and thought the camera work was INGENIOUS for this kinda movie. A lil too much foreshadowing, though.

38 & 47. AHAHAHAHAHAHH NOTE TO SELF: SHOW THESE SECRETS TO RESPECTIVE MUNS. XDDD

59. I thought th same thing and proceeded to think I was a HORRIBLE PERSON. ;;

Ningeeeen. Ningen explain secret number nine to me. I have no idea wh the people in it are, or why they are shopped onto a hunter and a dead wolf, but the picutre si incredibly bizarre and so oddly appealing that I MUST KNOW before I go to sleep. I will go to sleep and wake up insane. Er if I don't figure it out.

In a way, I both agree and disagree. I agree that some people don't give it the chance it deserves, because the idea behind it is absolutely brilliant. However, I have a feeling that the reason most people (like myself) try to avoid it is because the fandom is a bit... overwhelming.

It's become the Kingdom Hearts of anime. It's hard for people to appreciate what is truly a very good thing, because the fans are far too... fanatical. So it's hard to convince someone on the outside looking in.

27.

(Anonymous) 2008-02-02 12:19 am (UTC)(link)
27. I agree. I don't mean to offend anyone, really, but what's up with "Strong black women"? I've never seen a character portrayed as a strong chinese woman or mexican or any other race. I feel like the media is only using their ethnicity to show the world how strong they are. Yeah, they're strong, but they're leaving out everyone else, and it's making them look superior than the rest because they're "strong".

58. Who cares? LS and AzDh are different IMO. LS is about otaku at school, and AzDh is about a 10 year old high school student and her dsfhksgfjdsgc-ing friends.

I don't know where people are getting the whole "I've never seen latino/asian/indian/korean/irish women portrayed in a positive, empowering way"

There are hundreds, THOUSANDS of movies with women of different ethnicities cast in an empowering role. It's up to you to get off your lazy asses and seek them out.

The Sister Fidelma books?

Unfortunately, I've read the first one and not found any more - I only buy mystery books second hand or on the cheap; unlike Cadfael and the Susanna Gregory books, the Fidelma books just do not seem to turn up anywhere.

Fidelma is pretty kickass, though - maybe I'll have to start hunting her down a little more seriously.

(My friend put me onto the series, and she's on LJ too, so unless you are her, there's at least one more person on LJ who knows what you mean. =) )
