I agree. *huge Windwaker fan*

[batty-gal.livejournal.com]

106 - I love Deadpool as well! I was just re-reading his old series a couple of weeks back.

114 - The responses to this will be interesting...

124 - I wouldn't take it to heart. Some people simply prefer fics that are more romance-based since they often don't get it in canon. Also, it isn't something that happens with just slash pairings - I've seen het writers with the same complaint.

128 - Ooooh I thought I was the only one that can't stand Lucky Star! Also, there's a few shows/movies I hate but will play the hell out of the OSTs.

129 - The cause itself should be something you should stand behind, whether you dislike other feminists (or their methods to support the cause) or not.

[(Anonymous)]

You thought you were the only one who couldn't stand it? That's surprising to me, but come to think of it I guess it doesn't have much of a hatedom outside of 4chan.

114

[night-is-fallen.livejournal.com]

For what it's worth, I completely agree with you.

[penumbra.livejournal.com]

146: They're making new episodes?

156: Ugh, I would be so irked with that as a casting choice.

146

[atom-bunny.livejournal.com]

Yep. ^_^ I'm really hoping they don't screw it up.

[polysamachan.livejournal.com]

111. I really see no problem with creating a community for het pairings (Gwen/Lancelot kyaa~) but calling it a 'haven' is kind of squicky. It brings to mind scary Morgana/Gwen and Arthur/Merlin fans with like. Chloroform and baseball bats. WHY DO YOU NEED A HAVEN WHEN NO ONE'S ATTACKING YOU? :(

OP

[(Anonymous)]

The thing is, they exclude every mention of slashy/gay pairings from the fic and people who've written slash before are asked to watch their words if they want to join. I'm by no means a slasher, but that turned me off something terrible. I love my Uther/Morgana, but I can see and understand that people ping on Merlin/Arthur, hell, I've made it a background ship in my own story for some Uther angst once.

147

[(Anonymous)]

What band? I'm just curious because if I like that band, I might want to go seek this fic out.

Also, I understand your qualms about this. I once wrote fluff about a band member and his girlfriend. I felt really weird about it afterwards. Buuuhhh.

105, 114, 134

[alenxa.livejournal.com]

105: Are you my sister???

114: It's always disgusted and baffled me that so many people's definition of "fun" is "hurting other people who aren't hurting you." To be fair, it also baffles me how people who claim to want to be writers never learn to take constructive criticism. (Which, true, is still something I occasionally have problems with, but I don't attack people for providing it.)

134: Definitely a much better bunch of questions to ask than some of the stuff I've seen people nitpick and obsess over.

(Edited because so many of the secrets I want to comment on like, NEVER show up on page 1 of the post. WTF??)

[hako-neko.livejournal.com]

Holy yotz! It's Cartoon Aeryn!

[georg-vanlunden.livejournal.com]

t!b 7. Holy snookums is that that kid merman from the animated series? I... don't really remember him in any way whatsoever beyond that. Sorry.

106. No, I'd say he's still crazy. Amusing and not loved enough, true, but still ca-ray-zay.

110. Oh, I do agree that the Predator's and Fulgore's masks make me quiver in fanboyish glee. There is just something so ungodly cool about them. Who is Katsumoto though?

115. I think John did too. Poor, poor John ;_;

116. Oh, signed and agreed. Because then I could at least dream that someone would just off the little douche-drinker already BUT Goku just had to be a Jesus.

125. Or Lelouch. Or Napoleon. Or just about anyone with large dreams who made an impact, only to fall from grace in a spectacular fashion.

126. What's the name of this show?

134. I can see where you're coming from. To someone who wants to debate the line between fiction and reality, what people perceive as real and how the fictional stories can be more "real", more valid to them in every day life than other "real" occurrences is probably an interesting debate, and seeing it go neglected when it's where your interest lies must be harsh... but how much do you honestly think we can get from it? Most people probably don't think about it just because they ARE fictional characters: they don't care about discussing the nature of reality because they don't think it's relevant to their every-day lives, whereas discussing issues on a more "shallow", as you put it, level means they can discuss the things in THEIR every day life, bring THEIR opinions to the table in the context of discussing a show.

Too long and probably confusingly put (I'ma naming it TL:PCP): people don't think that kind of thinking will ever amount to more than navel-gazing and as such isn't interesting to engage in.

That, or they're just in it for the hot dudes and chicks. That's life for ya buddy. Not much we can do about it, but try and find and be grateful for those who share our interests.

137. ... Well, I can assume that that also meant that when Chad turned around and finally stood up for himself, that must have been even more powerful, huh? One of my favorite endings in the show actually, just for Cartman getting his come-uppance in a way that wasn't amusingly violent or over-the-top.

145. Well. Way to set the bar high. I mean for crying out loud, I'm tonedeaf! I'll never learn how to play a guitar!

146. THEY ARE MAKING NEW EPISODES? Oh my goodness Aunt Bessy-Marybelle where can I get a confirmation of this?

156. Personally trying to "see" anyone in the real world as Link is always going to be a bit of a stretch to me. I just... fumble in the dark when I do it.

157. Is this a game? I don't know why, but the design looks familiar despite the fact I can honestly say I have no idea who the characters are.

146

[alocin42.livejournal.com]

From the horse's mouth! http://www.reddwarf.co.uk/news/2008/09/19/new-red-dwarf-specials-confirmed/

[arvada.livejournal.com]

134. Umberto Eco makes me weak in the knees. <3

106.

[sonormalithurts.livejournal.com]

Cable is that you?

Re: 106.

[jaclynhyde.livejournal.com]

Heeee.

TB!6 101, 105, 119, 145

[agentphillips87.livejournal.com]

Too Big 6) Well there's plenty of it about if you know where to look :)

101) I do that too, which is why I avoid sharing a room with anyone...

105) Yeah, he feaked me right out as well - I don't care if he did have healing powers, I wouldn't want that wrinkly, clammy-looking thing touching me *shudders*

119) I haven't seen enough of the US version to judge whether it's any good, so I'm not about to hate on it for no reason, but at the same time I'm just not interested in watching it. The Spanish version on the other hand looks all manner of awesome

145) Marty! <3

TB!6

[(Anonymous)]

Link please? :)

119

[(Anonymous)]

Man, I HEAR you. And STfuckingFU about Ashes while you're at it!!

146

[verusmayaii]

woah woah woah WHAT

new episodes of Red Dwarf??? how did I miss this!?

sauce please? D:

Re: 146

[alocin42.livejournal.com]

Posted just up there a bit! It's pretty old news web-wise, at least in the UK... http://www.reddwarf.co.uk/news/2008/09/19/new-red-dwarf-specials-confirmed/

And I really get my knickers in a twist when people act like the only reason to do something well is because you're getting paid for it. I have a lot of hobbies I suck at, and the pleasure of doing them is trying to learn to do them better. If you aren't getting paid for something, why would you want to do it quickly and shittily? Why not take time and try to do things well?

I was going to say I have no idea how it's an "entitlement issue" to point out that crap stinks, but then I read yet another post by a Doctor Who scenester whining about how they were here first and the new fans need to gtfo, so I kind of do feel you there. I promise not to watch any classic episodes ever if it will make those people hush.

Re: 114

[(Anonymous)]

Sadly, I don't think all of those fans doing it "shittily" realize they are doing it so.

#139

[ailurophile6.livejournal.com]

I can't believe there's a Crosby secret!!

All you Sid haters can kiss my ass - he's the greatest player in the game, followed closely by Malkin

You're all just jealous he doesn't play for your team!

Re: #139

[suicidal-knife.livejournal.com]

For being so young, Crosby has led the team so far. Anyone who says they "hate" him are obviously jealous.
That's my two cents.

I'm not even a Penguin fan : /

#134

[misslucyjane]

Once more in English?

Re: #134

[(Anonymous)]

Exactly what I was going to say.

144

[alocin42.livejournal.com]

To me Robin Hood is a fox. That film is my Platonic form of Robin Hood against which all other versions are judged!

I know it's probably lame to consider a Disney film a Platonic form of anything, but what is done is done...

[cristiline.livejournal.com]

Er - is 157 pictures from Gaia puzzles? Or are the Gaia puzzle pictures stolen from some other fandom I don't know of?

[yui-hime.livejournal.com]

Uh. Moira, Vanessa, and Ruby look like they're just screencaps from their respective Shops. I've seen the Anne and Marie art on the Gaiapedia.

[aegoceros.livejournal.com]

114: THANK YOU.

129: I don't even know what to say about this secret. :\ It makes me sad that there are so many people who won't support a movement to secure rights for others because some people who fight for the cause take it too far.

129

[fruitsgrow.livejournal.com]

It is, but as someone that has had fanatic feminists in my face quite often...I really understand and don't blame some people from being turned off. You associate things with other things -- and if they association is negative, some people aren't going to stick around; they don't like the uncomfortable feeling or reminder or whatever the negative association brings.

115, 118

[captain-katze.livejournal.com]

115 - This makes me smile for some reason.

118 - I want that one on the left. So badly. Too bad I have your same dilemma when it comes to things preventing me from getting one...

[tellingtime.livejournal.com]

130: Whoa! TF2 RP secret! I don't really have anything worthwhile to add, just *hi5*

105, 113, 114, 120

[mcwicca.livejournal.com]

105: E.T. scared the everloving SHIT out of me as a kid. I still get creeped out when I see him.

113: That's adorable.

114: THIS. Very well said, OP.

120: I WANT FIC SO BAD.

[misscherri.livejournal.com]

111. I dunno anything about that or the fandom, and I could be totally off here but I really hope you aren't calling them homophobes for having a het community... because unless they're going around saying "MAN DO I HATE THE GAYS" that's not homophobic. and if that's not what you're saying... ignore this!
118. that is fantastic
138. YES ME TOO he's my favorite character in that movie

ALSO

[misscherri.livejournal.com]

114. I AGREE

105

[willag.livejournal.com]

You might hate me for this, but I find it ironic how your icon looks like a pink chibi-fied version of ET sans long neck. Just draw in a nose between the eyes... or, hell, that middle bump could be a nose that grew into a tumor and inched up to the top of his head.

It could be like an ET fairy or something... or perhaps what the female gender looks like... or perhaps an animated version of ET's heart come to life.

No, bad brain... urr, I should go to bed now, I'm obviously tired.

[ryahhime.livejournal.com]

121. I find his and Abby's relationship absolutely darling, though I don't ship it myself. I mean, come on, Abby MUST have thought about it. :D

157. What fandom is that? *is curious*

157

[danyellalot.livejournal.com]

Those are characters from Gaia Online.
