14) What is the point about lying to people about something you like? I could see just secretly liking it, but what is the point in telling people something you're fond of is "shit"?

17) If the song is sung well, it's sung well. It doesn't matter if your voice matches the original singer's perfectly - it's about covering the song, not imitating it. Go out there and sing!

23) Some people just don't care? I make all my own icons, but I don't begrudge people who don't.

And, hey... Why are icons fandom now, exactly?

31) I LOLed at "om nom nom like a shark."

32) I'm going to need a thought-process explanation, here.

52) That's really beautiful. Now I feel bad that my copy's gathering dust because I thought it was boring. :(

56) I don't get it, but this is one amazing secret.

63) How the hell would she fight? The lipstick is already a weapon/item, so she can't use that.

65) I feel the same way about Custom Overflag and Nadleeh. D:

Proving 36 right! :Db

Oh crap, this random anonymous has totally just made me want to follow the sage wisdom of all other passive-aggressive whiners who post secrets and expect policy or opinions to change because of them instead of, you know, engaging in actual discussion or just commenting with "I DON'T WANT TO DEBATE WITH ALL THESE PEOPLE, LEAVE ME ALONE."

Perhaps we enjoy the hive mindset? A good chunk of games these days have real friends that call and live with and date other people in the game, and you know what? That's awesome. That is beyond awesome. It's awesome to have friends become family over the years, awesome awesome awesome.

CAN'T RAIN ON OUR PARADE. Don't bother trying.

25. There is hope- try out for [Unknown site tag].

33. As do I.

35. Now that you mention it, it’d be kind of cute.

41. Courage secret FTW! And I can see how that scares you.

57. Wow. Just…wow.

61. I would too, but I feel bad that Mung has a wife…

Then that means we get to keep Hugh and Eddie, right? I think I can deal with that.

53. Because shippers totally operate on a hive mind and have no ability to think individually and like a ship for character dynamics.

And even if the logic wasn't made of epic fail -- which it is -- it could be applied to every ship in every fandom that has ever existed, so why is Zutara the one getting picked on? Again? It's not like Kataangers don't sexualize Aang just as much and pull Katara completely out of character just as often. And that's far, far creepier, IMO.

I swear, the butthurt over that trailer gets better by the week.

OP

(Anonymous) 2008-05-09 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
Because Zutarians are not only the craziest, they're the most annoying.

And the most bitchy towards Katara. And Mai, for that matter.

One of my favorite rival ships is 5986. In fact, if they aren't together tyl, I'd be pretty disappointed! THEY ACT LIKE AN OLD, MARRIED COUPLE, HELLO!?

17.
Altos need more love. Heard of Full Moon o Sagashite? I think the songs in there are the right range for you (but they've been fan-sung OVER and OVER again, so...)

20.
Read GANTZ (http://www.onemanga.com/Gantz/).

23.
Some are just lazy and other don't have time. There are many busy people out there who can barely get on the Internet, let alone LJ, once a week.

31.
I've only watched the anime (it's pretty much the same as the manga, right?) and loved it! Many of my friends don't know or care for this series either. Boo.

33.
Me too. What are people complaining about this time?

63.
Please learn to spell "weeaboo" correctly.

64.
Time to move onto someone else.

N!S 2.
I'm trying to like it. The animation is gorgeous but it's not hitting the right note.

TB 1.
Where's the fic?

OP for 20

(Anonymous) 2008-05-09 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
Does GANTZ have disturbing images that are aesthetically pleasing? I only get obsessed with beautiful disturbing images, as messed up as that sounds.

50. *makes note to always put Lorne in fic* Personally, I always wander off when it's Rodney or John fic. (boys get boring after a while, and since the canon is nothing but boys...)

[identity profile] etherealtsuki.livejournal.com 2008-05-09 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
03. Well, I wasn't surprised since she was never a fighter (it would make sense that the Guardians of the Tenth Vongola don, those 'mysterious ring holders', would be able, you know, guard Tsuna). At least Chrome is a Guardian! But Haru is much, much LOEV. And Gokudera/Haru rivalry is already epic when it happens.

07. Because Kira didn't 'use' Fllay and actually thought she gave a damn about him and he had a HUEG crush on her. When the object of affections comforted you and told you that they cared for you at the time when you're in the middle of a breakdown, all bets are off. The fact she used Kira's sincere affections to further her agenda made her well hated in the fandom outside of Japan. Kira pushed himself so he can protect her. You seriously can't say the situation is the same for the both of them.

20. D: And that's not even the most bloodiest death in the series.

33. Yes, Near's english dub voice is sexy.

37. We be trolling, everybody respond when I say something.

39. Oh shit, someone who is a Aoshi/Soujirou fan like me~! And I join the fandom so late.... Oh god, you MUST tell me what doujinshi is that. PLEASE.

41. I admit, Courage the Cowardly Dog do have the occasional episode which was upright unnerving.

54. Okayyyyyyy....

57. But Soubi and Ritsuka don't have a sexual relationship. Soubi making inappropriate passes, touches and kissing Ritsuka? Yes. Actually having sex with Ritsuka? No.

66. Beauty Pop is cute, I like it.

69. Oh please, actually watch the movie. I thought she did a pretty fucking good job as Luna. Made Luna...err, Luna without making her seem like a total airhead or overdoing it.

Not Secret #1. Too old, plus I don't think Yohko was the first since the whole supernatural shtick was already popular. Plus the series wasn't all that good outside of the fanservice anyway.

Not!Secret #2. IAWTS.

31. Can I luffs you forever nao?~<3 Because that is one of my favorite manga. Maybe THE favorite.

63. Lip..? !! Lip's Stick! Ok, she needs to be in it, now.

66. Don't be ashamed! That's a pretty neat manga~ =3

17 - Don't feel ashamed! I'm an alto, too, and it's a great range to have. Who wants to sing all those nasty high notes, anyway? And you can sing along with a lot of male-vocalized songs without having to bring it up an octave. :D

29 - *squeals over OLS secret!!!*

41 - Eep, that show creeped me out too, and I adore horror! A lot of it was the area surrounding their house... just so desolate. Whoever came up with the original design did an excellent, if frightening, job.

51 - But, but...! ;_; Zoe and Wash and forever! (Lol but I have to admit - Kaylee/Wash would be adorable.)

54 - Get off your high horse and stop telling people what they can or can't watch. I'm sure you've seen Hollywood-produced films and most likely watched a few American shows. European channels do air American shows for a reason. The very same reason American channels air British and other foreign shows. For other people to watch them. And the only people getting the "wrong impression" of the British are those stupid enough to not know the difference between television and reality.

55 - ..... does this have anything to do with Spy vs. Spy porn?

59 - XD

68 - OMG I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE!!!!

Wow, way to make a general assumption about an entire group of people.

[identity profile] virescens.livejournal.com 2008-05-09 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
Aw, I love that show. It's so cute and the animation is just hypnotically good that I can't stop watching it. <3

HO SHIZZLE! first ever game I went to I started slashing... i thought i was just too wierd for words. Now I realize I'm not alone in the world. You'vemade my life, thank you. *Laughing very hard and pleasantly surprised*

[identity profile] xanykaos.livejournal.com 2008-05-09 03:58 am (UTC)(link)
06. Yeah. It's an old story. It's a shame. But it's the way the world works. *sigh*


09. Mm. I think I know what you're talking about. But I'll say it's easier to look at a nicely drawn piece of art than it is to read a fic about a character you don't know or care about. Also, if the OC is drawn well, well, then...it's been done well. Whereas a lot of written OCs are just written poorly.


10. Kudos.


17. Hey now! Altos rock! Screw sopranos and their breathy high-notes (jk, y'all, some of my best friends and all that). So you can't make the uber-high's...do something they can't do, like blues. IMHO, a good alto>a good soprano, because it seems like everyone is, and honestly, once you hit a certain range, it just becomes painful, however well-sung.


32. Oh man. My childhood. Can't....unsee...


41. Not a fan of either, but I'll admit, that show did a good job of being literal-nightmarishly creepy.


42. You'll be happy to know then, that in the book, Mowgli goes back to the jungle. Bagheera and Baloo's personalities are reversed though. And man, I hate it when people hate female characters for a male being attracted to them. Really now.


51. I can't help but feel like that's almost sick. I don't know, Wash and Zoe were just such a perfect relationship. Not flawless, but honestly, heartwarmingly good. The thought of Wash with Kaylee actually makes me a little physically sick, and darn it, I love them both. It just...doesn't...work.



53. Gad, I am so tired of seeing these crappy anti-whatever ship secret. But especially with the anti-Zutara ones, I can't help but feel like they're all just attacks. I love Zutara. I love Zuko, yeah. But I love Katara too. She's awesome and maternal and responsible and so many things that I'm not, even remotely. Honestly, though, I think if one's out of character, the other will be as well. If someone can't grasp Katara well enough to write her, then I doubt they can do more than spoof Zuko.


54. Wow. Arrogant disgusting troll is both arrogant and disgusting.
I honestly hope you're not serious, especially with the oh-so-stupid second paragraph (plus, is Martha sassy? I never noticed, really.). Ouch.


56. Lol, no idea what it is, but funny.


69. Wow. I totally shouldn't watch movies with people from Carencro or St. Martinville in them, apparently.





[identity profile] dorknessrising.livejournal.com 2008-05-09 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
53. So do I. I'm also getting siock of the attitude that acknowledging when a character has made a mistake or acted immature and snotty is somehow bashing them. Katara is one of my favorite animated females ever, but I don't agree with everything she says and does. Just like I don't agree with everything every other character in the fandom says and does. None of them are perfect, and it shouldn't be in bad form to to say so.

Ah, Courage. I love that show. It gets extra props for being the only piece of media I've ever seen that actually replicates what dreaming is like, in all those scary, funny, beautiful, and strange moments.

My favorite episode is "The Last Star-Makers." ^^

72) I LOVE Ben. He's one of the only reasons I still watch Lost. (The others being Sayid, Hurley, and Desmond. I'd say Charlie but you know how THAT went....) He's such a screwed up character. He's great.

17. I personally find female singers with deeper voices infinitely more attractive and pleasing to the ear than female singers with higher voices.

Sing anyway. I am sure it is beautiful.

11. Aw, don't be put off by the over-zealousness. Personally I did think it was awesome. I'd say try watching the pilot, see what you think. Don't just not watch it because of other people's insanity. ;D

32. ...I'm not sure I even want to know. o.O

54. Cause I'm sure British people never watch any American tv shows. Ever. At all.
