122. Oh gosh, that was a TERRIFYING boss. Don't feel bad, though--when I first fought against GOHMA I was absolutely freaking out. GOHMA. I had to get my brother to help me beat it. And I was screaming. XD;;

125. I'm tempted to subscribe to the Robot Chicken version, where he was abducted by aliens and they sent down the fake Jackson so nobody would know.

156. ...Find another show to watch when it ends?

172. Honestly, I grew up in that fandom and I think it's part of the reason I DON'T like the pairing smush names now. XD;;; IT WAS SO CONFUSING! That being said, I don't MIND them and even sometimes use them when it's convient (Fakiru for Princess Tutu) or, well, hilarious (KIDOUCHE from [livejournal.com profile] polychromatic/Soul Eater + Code Geass...yeah, I know)

176. ...Worst. Role model. EVER.

LOL, OMG, HOW DID I MISS THIS SECRET???

He DOES look like Fakir and Ahiru's kid. That's sort of creepy. Now...I want to watch it, too.

132.) SMeyer is a terrible writer. She is an idiot. All of her books are awful, and The Host was mind numdlingly awful, esp for any who enjoys Science Fiction.

This sums up my feelings on SMeyer:
http://www.journalfen.net/community/fandom_wank/1172270.html

She deserves every little bit of the hate and hilarious vitrol that she gets. I really wish she would never write again.

[identity profile] wazira-sharira.livejournal.com 2008-08-12 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
esp. for any who enjoys Science Fiction.

Yes. That's her problem. She is a writer who knows nothing about fantasy, attempting to write fantasy not for fantasy fans, but for people who would otherwise not read it. And the result is something that looks like she did no research and literally just threw supernatural elements into a teen romance so that it could be shelved in two different categories in a bookstore.

127. The amount of emotional investment I have in the outcome of the Christmas Bowl is absurd. If the Devil Bats don't win I will be devastated, not just because I love the Devil Bats with all my heart or because I think the heroes should always win in shonen manga, but because of the message it would send: No matter how hard the underdogs try they can't beat the snooty, elitist, unlikeable b-holes who have talent but no heart. Sorry, got carried away there a little bit. Like I said, very invested.

122. I HATE THAT DAMN DUNGEON. Congrats on beating it!

124. It's impossible not to be disliked by by someone no matter what you do. However, you won't gain anything if you don't put yourself out there. You might find people who think you're pretty neat. Don't be afraid. :)

138.) I suppose I'm fucking crazy then.

Ya know, speaking as a long-time villain obsessor, it's not always just about looks. It's about the character, the way they speak, act, move... sense of humour, awesome snarky lines...
A lot factours in.

A lot factours into why I'm so freaking in love with the Joker. Yes, I do happen to find him extremely sexy, but that's definitely not the only reason.

145.) RYOKOOO

104. Aww Girly Secret! I thoroughly enjoy his depiction of the absurd sometimes, and Winter and Otra's story is so sweet and wacky and all things yummy. :)

125. BEST MICHAEL JACKSON EXPLANATION EVER. \o/

126. LOL I love how this probably pertains to at least a dozen people in every fandom in existence.

142. The past Wimbledon final - and watching Rafa on the olympics this morning - really, really has me jonesing for tennis slash. Or sports slash in general, because I keep picturing Phelps and Lezak giving the French team some punishing post-heat sex. XD

108. You can be a straight guy and ship slash, just like you can be a straight woman and ship femslash or a gay woman and ship slash or a gay guy and ship femslash, or whatever else. Sexual orientation's got nothing to do with it. That said, I don't know anything about the games aside from what I've learned from Zero Punctuation, but that's a very nice picture. (Also, I bet your little sister thinks you're awesome. XD)

112. Everyone in the world wishes Atticus Finch was their dad. It's a base requirement for being human, so having a crush on him is independent of that. No worries.

127. ASDJKDASJ EYSHIELD 21 YES. ♥ Oh god I agree so hard.

111: Good luck! I totally started running up and down my street at full speed to practise sprinting for my life with the Doctor, haha. But then I had to stop because my shin splints became crippling.

180: I don't know about Nazis, but it sure taught me that captains were hot (a tradition helped by Captain Malcolm Reynolds, Captain Jack Harkness, etc.)!

Mulan FTW!! I loved that film too, even though I was well into my 30's when it came out. I only hope and pray that she stays a warrior, amd doesn't drop out to marry whatshisname, and that she beheads the bloody dragon...

[identity profile] greeneyedlady.livejournal.com 2008-08-11 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
149. Wanted to add a few words on this one too. Like the OP I am a fangirl who doesn't like any kind of slash or yaoi (with the one exception being Sex Pistols) and I also am not quite sure where I fit in within fandom. I don't doubt my womanhood, but I do feel a bit left out sometimes. I am a manga fangirl primarily and a lot of my favorite series are Weekly Jump titles. For anybody who doesn't know, Jump fandoms are dominated by fujoshi. Het and gen fangirls are often the outsiders who must look to communities that specialize.

There's also the whole deal with the "slash goggles." It definitely makes it harder to relate to other fans when they are squealing over "subtext" that you just can't see.

They need to come up with a word for female otaku who are not fujoshi but not like male otaku either.

169. Okay, so besides the obvious similarities (like the impossible Ahiru-esque hair antennae), I was still skeptical.... Until my friend actually looked up more information on the character and sent me the link over IM. He even SOUNDS like their kid (even a mix of their personalities) and he fights with a bird monster? I'm really curious now. XD And I'll use a Fakir/Ahiru icon just for the heck of it. ...I almost want to make some cracky icon about this now. I'd joke about Uzura and the dysfunctional family the three of them would have, but that kid, aside from the eye color, fits in too well. I'm beyond amused. XD

That fandom is over 20 years old. Every fan who isn't yet mature enough to deal with newcomers is one of those walking "still lives in his parent's basement" clichés and can die of drama.

Alas, I'm sorry, it doesn't exist. Really, those songs were introduced to me through friends and fanmixes, I just portrayed them as videos, 'cause it was the easiest one to do with photoshop. :x

I do wish someone would make that video, though.

111. I'm not overweight, just on the heavier side of healthy, but I can't run very well because I have weak lungs. I probably wouldn't mind so much except that I feel like I'd be a miserable Companion because of it. Good luck to you, though — both on losing weight and finding an adventure.

121. Psha. No one's going to laugh at a you — you're a freaking black belt!

Also, I think it's awesome.


139. So agreed! I liked Josh a lot at first, sort of flipped out on him during his big reveal at the end, and then on the replay started liking him again, but still not as much as I once had, or as much I liked most of the other major characters (Shiki is my favorite — her relationship with Eri really got to me for some reason).

About Rhyme — we don't even know if she got her entry fee back, or if it was lost forever when she was erased during the first week. Yikes! So, yes, I've been wondering about that too.

(Speaking of which, has anyone else thought about things like what their own entry fee would be? I think I'd end up having to play the game mute — the most thing to me that they could take away is my ability to speak my mind and express myself through words.)

149. Yeah, I never really got yaoi either. But then, I never really got porn in general. I do sometimes read or view vaguely smutty works if they're particularly romantic, or otherwise accessible on an emotional rather than carnal level, and in those cases I overwhelmingly prefer yuri or het. And I think you're right — I think it is about relatability.

It may not be a matter of security, though. It may just be a matter of wanting different things out of smut.

172. I don't get the hate either. I think they're sort of handy.

178. What? No. NO NO NO NO NO. Light is Lawful Evil. Joker is Chaotic Evil. They would despise each other and wage war on one another and God help anyone who got caught in the cross-fire.

Re: 139

[identity profile] jewel-song.livejournal.com 2008-08-12 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
139 - Rhyme's entry fee was actually her dreams for the future. They mentioned it very subtly and I don't think they ever came outright and said it. Beat says that he didn't have any plans for the future, but Rhyme did (he said he made up the dream about being a great skater). And in the beginning of the game, Rhyme was telling Shiki that her brother had lots of dreams, but she didn't, and wishes she did.

I totally missed it the first time, and my friend had to point it out to me, lol.

(Shiki's my favorite because I can relate to her so much. But I love Beat because, hello? He's kind of adorable. ^^)

And yeah, I've thought what my entry fee would be, but I still can't decide. :) (Yours is really good and struck a cord with me.)
