ext_81845: penelope, my art/character (contemplation)

[identity profile] childings.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
N!S I honestly hope that Miyazaki stops doing films. I can't think of anyone else who went from such total win to total fail in a career.

108 Haha, that video is pretty old already. Isn't it awesome, though?

114 I'm not a huge fan, either. Well, vampires are all right I guess, but I always pictured vampires more like Bela Lugosi's version of Dracula than some sexy gothic bishonen dude.

115 I don't believe in a life not worth saving. You deserve to be happy and you deserve to live, no matter how depressed you are or how pathetic you think your life is. Seriously, you can do it. If I could overcome (knock on wood) my bipolar disorder, you can overcome your suicidal ideation.

120 Except that you can't change your mother's vote, and like it or not it's her right to vote for Prop 8 (even though I and other sane people like me would disagree).

127 If I had that coat I'd wear it to work. Actually, it looks warm -- I wish I had one of those day when I was standing outside in the freezing cold dismissing 1st graders.

134 Why would you expect people in fandom to be better people than "regular" people?

163 I doubt many people seriously fap to that when they say that they slash something. They're doing it for the lulz. Which is even more disturbing to me, because when did sexual fantasy become a joke for people, or just a way to express that you really really like someone or something? I think it's stupid and immature. If you slash something, it should be because the pairing really gets you off.

Not just shipping. If you're just like LOL I SHIP IT that's one thing. It's another thing to be like LOL BARACK AND RAHM ARE TOTALLY HAVING GREASY ANAL SEX LOL unless you're really into those two having greasy anal sex. If not, that's just a stupid way to say that you really like them as politicians.

tl;dr feigning sexual attraction to someone or something just because you like it is childish and dumb.

Nobody really cares if you think it's stupid and immature. Fandom period is stupid and immature, and it's there for people to enjoy in whatever way they so choose, no matter how creepy or loltastic it may be.

Dude, it's my fucking opinion. I'm not telling you what to like or believe so FUCK OFF.

I'm just saying that I think it's stupid. If you don't care (and you don't speak for everyone), why are you even replying to my comment? Jesus fucking Christ, you'd think it was against the goddamn law to share what you think with anyone. I'm just commenting on the damn secret.

You clearly lack the emotional fortitude to post in this comm. I suggest you GTFO. Your crybaby posting is shitting up the place, and you're not smart or interesting enough to make up for the lack of comedy. In short, nobody give a flying fuck about your opinion. :)

TIA!

Well, my point was that some aspects of shipping (and fandom in general) is pretty childish, actually.

[identity profile] paperclipchains.livejournal.com 2008-12-10 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)
So is sexual fantasy the only valid reason to ship something now, or?

I already made a distinction between just shipping something and shipping it in an overly sexual manner. (That's usually what I think of when I think of slash, is fucking.) I don't get the point of acting like you're sexually turned on by something and then not actually being sexually turned on by it, and just pretending like you are, as a joke.

I ship lots of pairings, but just because I like the characters in that relationship, not because I fap to it.

(Anonymous) 2008-12-10 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
I ship lots of pairings, but just because I like the characters in that relationship, not because I fap to it.
And you can't slash characters together just because you like the characters in that relationship? What does the relationship being between two guys have to do with whether or not I fap to it? Sure I do fap to most of my ships, and they are mostly slash, but it's hardly just the fact that I fap to it which makes me choose to slash those characters. There are some characters I slash where half the time I only want to read them falling in love and been sweet and adorable and lovely, and will occasionally skip sex scenes in fic.

This: That's usually what I think of when I think of slash, is fucking. is just a really baffling idea to me. Slash can't be sweet and schmoopy and non-pornographic?

confusing

Nobody seems to be paying attention to what I'm saying.

I'm saying I don't get people who seem to be sexually into a pairing and they're just feigning sexual arousal for the lulz. If you actual fap to a ship/slash/whatever, that doesn't bother me or confuse me at all.

is just a really baffling idea to me. Slash can't be sweet and schmoopy and non-pornographic?

That's just the connotation I get when I hear "slash," because of how it's been used. I'm old compared to most in fandom, so maybe it gets used differently these days.

Oh, I'd taken that into account as your opinion, but couldn't really think of anything useful to add, so I just brought up the point I was confused on.

The way I've seen it used, 'slash' just means any ship between two men (or between any two people of the same sex, depending on context). With the usage I'm used to, you could call a fic slash regardless of whether it was an NC-17 PWP or whether it just featured the two guys kissing once on the lips with no tongue. What you said came across a little bit like "gay relationships are only about sex", but I guess we had our wires crossed and had two different definitions of 'slash'.

With regards to pretending to be sexually aroused by things you aren't sexually aroused by... hmm. It is something I've done, mainly just within certain contexts where it's understood that that kind of thing is expected (capslock comms for example). I don't really know how to explain that. I don't run around saying I ship pairings I don't ship, but if I'm talking in a capslock comm and a particularly weird combination of characters comes up, I might say something like "LOL, I SHIP IT". I guess the humour comes from the fact that it can be a kind of parody of normal fannish shipping behaviour?

N!S - I guess I'm hoping it would be something like one of the *win* ones. With an awesome Joe Hisaishi score, too. So maybe that should read IDEAL MIYAZAKI FILM OMGPLZ.

in any case, the series is phenomenal.

Well... honestly, Miyazaki isn't the same man who made Laputa, and he's getting old. And I heard that Earthsea, which was directed by his son, wasn't that great, so maybe he won't even be able to pass on much of a legacy. But I'm with you, I'd love to see him do another good film.

I've never heard of the series but now I want to check it out.
