Is that Stacy?

Do you mean to tell me you haven't seen Three Stories? D8

144 OP

[(Anonymous)]

Yes it's Stacy. I saw Three Stories, and that's the only one I like with her in it. I can't stand re-watching her episodes.

144

[xbriyeon.livejournal.com]

144. I'm a big Hameron shipper, and Huddy can annoy me but I can tolerate it, and compared to that Stacy's really not that bad. o_o

101, 126, 135

[slowplay.livejournal.com]

101 - Amen.

126 - I enjoy watching and rewatching classic who, but even I go there regularly. :)

135 - I was going to make a joke about how Mickey is just the "tin dog" but I'll forgo it. Instead here is a news flash for you; "People are petty and weird."

#130

[sashimi-salad.livejournal.com]

I haven't been keeping up with One Piece. Which chapter is that?

#130 OP

[(Anonymous)]

chapter 485

[relmneiko.livejournal.com]

121. That entire game was just 'let's kill off all the cool characters one after the other!!1' -.-;; Yeeeaaah the only thing that kept me going after Axel's death was the fact that you get a keyblade shaped like his chakrams which I equipped all the time even after getting more powerful keyblades. HE IS ALWAYS WITH YOU!!!1

143. I'd worship Pikachu. Someone needs to start some kind of crack comm for this. 'THE CULT OF PIKACHU.'

[chiixhideki.livejournal.com]

105. I WANNA WATCH THIS

That is all.

[batty-gal.livejournal.com]

105 - Oooh, I understand where you're coming from, but my problem is with a different show's fans. While I hate the particular show I'm thinking about, it isn't because of the asshole group of fans, it's because it sucked.

109 - She's pretty!

122 - Woman of color here! *waves*

136 - I blame society.

[honestys-easy.livejournal.com]

113. They put a sign up? Laaaame.

132. *waits for-fucking-ever for her Samantha: An American Girl movie*

[friendshipbeam.livejournal.com]

There's already a Samantha movie. It wasn't in theatres, though.

138

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

Windwaker designs: best thing to happen to that franchise. And the only thing that made me want to even pick up a Zelda game. Hurr.

101,105, 118,125,126, 136,143

[shadsie.livejournal.com]

101. Heh. ZORK. I used to play that on an ancient computer my brother-in-law gave me, but I never got very far in it. Showing your age or just your gaming savvy?

105. I've not seen TTGL, but reading a bit about it makes me interested. Still, I understand what you mean about overenthusiastic fans. "House," "NGE" (though I actually do like NGE... just not my favorite anime). For what it's worth, I've been a *complete* "Trigun" fanatic for the better part of a decade, yet I understand that not everybody likes it - it just grabbed me in a particular way -- is not going to do that to everyone. If someone's talking with me and tells me to "back off," I will.

As it is, I'm reluctant to get into "The Meloncholy and Haruhi Suzimaya" (sp?), and I'll probably *never* get into "Bleach" because of the majority fanbases... they just scare me. Also, though I've seen the movies, I'm slightly afraid to start reading "Harry Potter," too... I really understand the "extremely popular=scary" sentiment. Maybe I'm missing out on really great things, but overly-hyper (or overly wanky) fans can do that to some people, *especially* if they act snobby about their "baby." To treat me like I'm a lesser human being or like I'm stupid for not liking something is the easiest way to PREVENT me from even giving it a chance, and people who condescend to me are generarlly on my piss-list forever.

118. I'm just shy of 29. I wish it were a valid career choice. I think it would be my dream job... working with "animals," traveling the world, not answering to a boss...

125. Life just sucks sometimes. Without going into details, I'm in sort of a similar situation with not being able to move forward due to money issues... The world is indifferent to individual dreams and hopes, I fully believe that "making it" is probably more a matter of luck than of talent or skill, however...

I have had fictional characters who've helped me to a degree, but, in the end, you have to internalize it. You have to just say "Screw it" when it comes to the world and believe that *you* have worth. Even if the world is indifferent, someone loves you. Even if the world is hard, you are alive and are still trying. I believe that we all affect the world in a variety of ways, many of which we cannot see - that there *is* a reason. If, in the end, you need to get help from someone -- (psychatric or otherwise, for depression and such), don't be ashamed of it.

126. Not into Dr. Who... and if I wanted to, I could learn all about Classic Who from my walking-encyclopedia fiance'. I say be careful with Wikipedia, though. They aren't always accurate (I don't trust them with fandom stuff, not after some crap happened with people editing the wiki with mis-information in my home fandom). If someone tells you different, please, PLEASE don't say that they're wrong because "Wikipedia said so!" -- I've had someone pull that with me on subjects that I've *LIVED,* thinking they were some kind of holier-than-thou expert on it because they read something on Wiki... ARRRRGH! If people give me Wiki articles to try to "correct" me, (or anyone else) my respect for them immediately goes down, honestly -- just because of the one person.

136. I feel the same way you do. There are a lot of characters I like, even ones I think are "pretty" or "sexy" that I would never, ever shag. If I think a character design is good, or that they have an interesting personality, I don't equate that with "I'd hit it." I love Vash the Stampede, but it's hero-worship... I'd rather "be like him" or "be his friend." I love all the Haibane of Haibane Renmei because they have beautiful personalities - I want to hug them all, not "hit" them all. Then again, I'm not "most of fandom," either -- I'm sort of a freakish aesexual -- so maybe feeling this way just isn't common or even "normal" in fandom.

143. I'm not sure it would catch on, but the "Cult of Chu" could be kind of funny. You can always make a fansite.

Re: 105

[lanjelin.livejournal.com]

I tend to become extremely curious about things that people talk about a lot, and that was the only reason I watched "The melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi" (I really liked it, which I didn't expect; it wasn't what I thought it would be). Generally I tend to have low expectations of hyped stuff (can anything really be that good?), but I still want to see it. Sometimes I get nice surprises that way, heh.

148

[darth.livejournal.com]

148. This secret makes me want to watch the dub just for that. XD;;;

138

[jading.livejournal.com]

I haven't gotten far on WW (too busy replaying FE), but it's a pretty good game so far. I love Link's character design in TP better than WW, though. Ocarina was my favorite though. Then probably Link's Awakening. fsdfds

Yay for Zelda secret :D

113.

[julian-black.livejournal.com]

YES. I know exactly what you mean.

101! You are my hero!

[runcible-spoom.livejournal.com]

101, you rock.

I named my "Rock Band" band "Eaten By a Grue." (I am not kidding.) It was either going to be that or "West of House."

Re: 101! You are my hero!

[ellisbelle.livejournal.com]

I just laughed harder at your icon than anything I read in this post. Brilliant.

113, 122

[gomimushi.livejournal.com]

113. D: THIS IS THE SAME REASON I HAVE NEVER GONE TO VISIT PLATFORM 9 3/4.... It's also secretly the reason why I was so happy to move to the UK back when I was around 11/12, because it meant just maybe i'd get a letter and be able to go to Hogwarts.

I feel like such a dork. :'D

[callmejude.livejournal.com]

144. I'm able to force myself through her episodes, but I totally understand what you mean. I can't stand her at all. Every time I see her face I cringe. I hope to God she never comes back. Everyone thinks it's cause "ah, you ship House/Wilson and you don't want the compitition there!" but that's not it at all. I love when he flirts with Cuddy, 'cause it's hilarious, and the thing with Cameron (despite my dislike for her) was cute. So, no, that's not it. If that were it, I'd love the episodes with her in them, 'cause Wilson gets very protective and supportive and friend-like, and when she leaves, they're closer than ever, but she hurt House, so FUCK HER.

...sorry, I get very ranty. TL;DR: I H8 HUR 2. :B

[paperclipchains.livejournal.com]

House hurts her, and House hurts himself.

I don't like Stacey either, but I think "she hurts House" is kind of a bullshit reason - especially when you consider that an unhurt House is not a House at all.

#136

[shoe-bug.livejournal.com]

Thank you! While I can understand why people think that way, it still saddens me somewhat whenever I see a secret like what you listed. All the worry just seems so unnecessary. I'm happy to know that I'm not the only one who has adopted this philosophy. :)

101.

[ravenousgrue.livejournal.com]

I'M UNDER YOUR BED.

136

[lunatic-the-7th.livejournal.com]

iawtc. Whenever somebody I know talks about shit like that I go Harkness on their asses.

[biocaam.livejournal.com]

103. WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS GAME. I DEMAND TO KNOW

105. Oh please, grow the fuck up. There's 'tards in every fandom. And if I judged an anime by the first episodes, I don't think I would love half the anime I do today. Some stuff needs time to grow on you.

118. Oh my God, I'm having flashbacks from when I was seven or eight and I was fixated with being a RL Pokemon trainer. Seriously, I imagined they were real. Thankfully my family *kind of* accepted it until the fixation went away.

122. Hmm, I completely understand you, totally, yet I always felt that fandom was a sanctuary where color, race, religion, etc. didn't really matter. I've actually met plenty of people of color (both men and women) who are into fandom, just in real life and not on the internet. Sorry. D:

126. Hey, I learned everything about Phoenix Wright from there and I haven't even played the games. People tell me my fic is great. xD If only they knew.

130. Um, wow. I'm sorry but...you remind me of my IRL friend who thinks her favorite characters are deities and should be worshiped as such.

133. NOOOOOO. I only ship Temari with Naruto or Sasuke. ShikaIno and HidaIno ftw.

138. I loved the game for its simplicity and pretty art. TP was way too serious for me. I always think OoT and MM will triumph over them both though because it had a perfect blend of the two.

145. HOLY SHIT, MARRY ME. I understand you 100% and then some. My parents put me in THERAPY because of it. I really wish they understood. They're hypocrites too because they fangirl/boy over their shows and think I'm weird for not liking them.

[poisontea.livejournal.com]

103. The World Ends With You (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_World_Ends_With_You). I have it, and I need to play it. It looks pretty epic, and I've really only heard good things about it. *A*

#119

[hako-neko.livejournal.com]

119. Didn't Xavin introduce himself as a "PRINCE" anyways?

105

[(Anonymous)]

How predictable. Because you don't bend down and worship the show, people are saying you're a troll, a "screaming twat," and so much more. Just because you don't like the show, and assumably, like myself, you're tired of people getting on your case about why.

I've watched the first ten episodes. I'm still not interested. Stop acting like I'm the antichrist because of it, jesus, fandom.

In other words, IAWTC, OP, and yet I'm not surprised by the reactions you're getting. Incredible. It really is the new NGE, like you say. People are just as retarded and defensive and unwilling to accept that not everyone likes the goddamn show.

138

[paulnolan.livejournal.com]

Well yeah... WW is pretty much superior to TP in every way.

Re: 138

[king.livejournal.com]

I laughed because of your icon. c:

103, 105, 121

[ahvia.livejournal.com]

103: lmao I was so confused by this secret until I read the comments, now I wish I were confused by it again. also OP you need to play the world ends with you, it's great and playing THAT game is way way better.

105: okay i'm sick of this "FANDOM RUINED IT FOR ME" bullshit. STAY AWAY FROM THE FANDOM or tell whoever is pestering you that you don't like awesome shows and be done with it.

121: oh PLEEEEASE there are characters in that game who actually have hearts, finish it for THEM!

Re: 103, 105, 121

[rinnia.livejournal.com]

Y-your icon. Oh. <3 So awesome.

122

[singealiene.livejournal.com]

Scuse my racism; those sound like some shitty friends you got there.

Then again, it seems like many non-fandom "real" friends are often looking for reasons to embarrass fandom people. Race is as good (read: stupid) reason as any. Still, I know exactly how you feel; being in the minority (is that a pun? I don't think it is) is always a bit wonky.
