Holiday Confessions/Ranting

[(Anonymous)]

Because many of us need to blow off steam.

Re: Holiday Confessions/Ranting

[(Anonymous)]

To those of you who emailed me on Christmas asking how I was, with it being the first Christmas without my mom:

I was fine until you brought it up! :)

Re: Holiday Confessions/Ranting

[(Anonymous)]

Not the holiday specifically, but I hate how hard it is to find clothes that are nice and warm enough to wear this time of year.

Re: Holiday Confessions/Ranting

I can't stand my extended family when there are too many of them, and I can't stand my parents either when it's only just the three of us. I need just a couple of siblings or cousins to reach the perfect balance on my social awkwardness scale.

I hate being sick over the holidays. I hate even more being unemployed because one of the ways I show love is by picking out the perfect gift for people. And I couldn't do it this year. Argh.

Also, kitty, you got so many great new toys. And yet, you still want to play with my feet and my headphones. I love you, but now I have to shell out $30, almost my entire January spending money, for a new pair.

I hate opening presents when people are focusing on you. That is why Christmas is better than birthdays. No one watching to see how you respond to gifts.

Re: Holiday Confessions/Ranting

[(Anonymous)]

Holidays have always been a constant battle ever since I got really really bad adult-onset allergies. I always got the vibe they were 'humoring' my 'paranoia'. So years passed have had big fights between my narcissist sister who insists stuff I'm ridiculously allergic to is 'traditional', and me pointing out not only is it dangerous, but no one even likes it! It never gets eaten!

This year, after being told they wouldn't, the dangerous dishes made an appearance and I decided to bite my tongue because Christmas. No one even ate any! But cross-contamination is a thing.

Of course I got really sick and spent Christmas night and the next couple days miserable.

The small silver-lining, I have already told them they can take their 'but fambly!' and 'traditional!' and shove it, I'm not sticking around for food anymore, that way they can have their display crap and I can live. It'll be easier on all of us, and honestly I don't know why they get so offended when I suggest it'll just be so much easier if I handle my allergies and they handle their dinner and we focus on the stuff we can easily do together.

i work in retail

so there is no "holiday", there is no "christmas", there is no "new year"; there is only "peak"

and it sucks balls

Re: Holiday Confessions/Ranting

[(Anonymous)]

I told my sister about this guy I've just started seeing and her immediate response was "ZOMG DID U SLEEP WITH HIM YET???" No sis, I didn't sleep with him yet, we've been on ONE date and it wasn't that kind of date. Some people like to take things slow, so CHILL. Then she made innuendo at me for a while. She's always been a "sex first, get to know you afterwards" type and I am the opposite, which she ought to know after all this time, so it is really annoying how she tends to act like her methods of dating are the default and like I'm somehow weird for not following them.

Re: Holiday Confessions/Ranting

I need to write a thank-you card but right now it is the last thing I want to do. Traditionally it's the opportunity to exchange notes about what's been going on in my life, and there is absolutely nothing good to report.

Media things that still make you angry

[philstar22]

The DCU take on Superman still makes me angry every time I see something about it. Is there anything in media (or fandom) that can still make you angry?

Re: Media things that still make you angry

[(Anonymous)]

Captain America in the Joss Whedon directed movies. He throws out all characterization from the previous movies because he needs someone for (quippy, Joss Whedon character type) Tony Stark to bounce against.

Re: Media things that still make you angry

[(Anonymous)]

Most things about the Tolkien movies but I'll stick with Tauriel here because she could've been great but she ended up being all the worst parts of Hollywood media.

Re: Media things that still make you angry

[kaijinscendre]

What happened to Donna Noble is a travesty and I'll hate Russell T Davies for that forever.

Re: Media things that still make you angry

[(Anonymous)]

Aaron Sorkin's writing.

Re: Media things that still make you angry

[(Anonymous)]

My NOTP becoming canon. I still have self-indulgent fantasies of convincing the writing staff to retcon it by, like, saving one of the staff's kids (or pets, or favorite delivery driver, I don't actually know anything about these people) from a speeding train or something ridiculous and that's all I ask for in repayment.

Re: Media things that still make you angry

[greghousesgf]

the idea that something's wrong with anybody who does not want kids. that bullshit shows up in A LOT of TV shows and movies.

Re: Media things that still make you angry

[(Anonymous)]

Almost everything about the 2004 Phantom of the Opera movie, from the borked timeline (good job setting it during the year Paris was under seige by the Prussians and everyone was eating rats, also the title character is in his 50s and his protege is 20ish, not 35 and 16) to the setting (why a fictional opera house when the Paris Opera actually exists, the Phantom didn’t grow up there, he helped build it as an adult) to the fact that only one of the three leads can sing (and of course it’s not either of the characters whose beautiful voices and astounding talent are central to the plot.)

Also that Neal Cassidy was killed off on OUaT. Okay, almost everything about Once Upon a Time sucked after season 3, but I might have kept watching if he hadn’t died and Hook and Zelena weren’t onscreen all the damn time.

* The slow realization that Bioware isn't all that good at what they do.
* Sad/Angry Puppies.
* I think big social network sites have changed a lot of things for the worse.

Re: Media things that still make you angry

[nightscale]

The HIMYM finale, I'm never acknowledging that as canon, fuck it.

Tripp getting killed off in AoS, that fucking sucked.

The completely disappointing and underwhelming 'Dark Phoenix' in X-Men 3, and tbh all of X-Men 3 too.

2017 Fandom Accomplishments

[(Anonymous)]

What did you create this year?

How do you feel about fanart changing canon physical characteristics of a character?

[(Anonymous)]

Like weight, race, age, etc. Is there anything you prefer over canon? Anything you’re okay with under certain circumstances?
