Wow, I had this exact reaction in a discussion about another secret about slash a couple of days ago.

AMEN, (figurative) SISTER.

[kribban.livejournal.com]

112. It's not bad if you want to read about fictional relationships inspired by your real life problems. It's only bad if you start expecting your friend to stay dependant on you. Or if you, you know, start threatening and manipulating your friend in to getting your way like the real Franziska. XD

142 (Serial Experiments Lain)

I did take away a "deeper meaning" from this series (or at least I think I did...it's all up to personal interpretation), but I wouldn't insult others for not finding any particular meaning in this show.

OP, it works both ways.

171

[chairman-wow.livejournal.com]

XDD When I started taking Japanese (purely out of linguistic interest) I'd seen all of one anime and read half a manga series in my entire life (not counting, you know, Pokemon and Dragonball as a kid). But now that I am into anime I spend half my life angsting over people thinking I'm a weeabo. Starting to get over it, though, because I really do enjoy the language. You should see if you can find classes somewhere!

103 - Actual book be damned, that sketch told me everything I needed to know about the story.

109 - Buddy, come on. There's not a chance in hell that a story set in historical settings would completely change their dialogue to adjust to the time period. That would make it uncomprehensible to 99% of the audience. And it was one slip, that doesn't speak for the rest of the series.

114 - Its strange that you wouldn't admit it, there's a ton of people who would know where you're coming from.

116 - What a viewpoint you have there. Being elitist doesn't make you an intellectual, and five bucks says it's a load of pretenious nonsense who is only worshipped by people too daft to know the difference.

119 - Stories are rarely realistic. The way the world works in real life is too boring to write a story about, half the time.

127 - when scans_daily was gone, a part of my soul died D:

143 - You either have a terrible relationship with your friends or you might just be obsessing to hard, there.

148 - NEVER BE AFRAID TO ADMIT YOU LIKE STAR TREK. I knew about Twitards before I even watched Star Trek, but I figured that there's nothing wrong with admitting I love a show as long as I don't represent the worst of the fandom.

163 - I love seeing hockey secrets. I just support hockey slash because the pun opportunities are ENDLESS.

164 - Pff, tell me about it.

Actually, it kind of does. Merlin eats SANDWHICHES, for god's sake.

What I don't get is all the fuss over 'historical accuracy' in this show anyway. HELLO? They didn't exactly have DRAGONS or MAGIC in the dark ages either. Merlin is a composite of vaguely-historical-come-high-fantasy-middle-english settings. What does the OP WANT? For it all to be in middle English? If it were THAT authentic no one but English Lit. geeks like me would be able to understand a WORD of the dialogue!

105.

[bombaygin.livejournal.com]

I read it SOLELY for the butt-sex. ;D WHAT IS WRONG WITH PORN FOR THE SAKE OF PORN? Does everything have to be an epic fucking Jane Austin novel for you?

Harrr. Yay PORN!

Re: 105.

[(Anonymous)]

Because it is deceptive porn! It has this big elaborate backdrop that hints at some sort of plot and then it just pulls it out from under you and goes "LOL! There's not plot here stupid! Just buttsex!"

If it was just buttsex for buttsex's sake, that'd be fine. But it's parading around as something else and then getting butthurt when it's called on the fact that it's just buttsex.

107 I'm not sure finding him hot is required.

115 There used to be fics where Ginny cheats on Harry with Draco, or, Harry's kind of an asshole and Ginny leaves him and ends up with Draco. Ah, how the worm has turned.

117 Or blatantly rewrite the women. If you wish that they had been better as characters, perhaps writing a story that explores that could be interesting, instead of abandoning them for the men.

120 Grammar is your friend. Also, Watchmen is not the be all and end all of the known universe.

135 I have a long attention span, so I see what you're saying. But sometimes people stop watching things not because they're fickle or have short attention spans or saw something shiny, but because the canon moved in a direction they didn't like. I'm tired of those people being portrayed as "bad fans" as though the only good fan is one that walks lockstep with the creators. I consider those people to be, sometimes, merely lucky fans.

143 Your RL friends are idiots. She's on TV every five minutes. How can they not know who she is? She's a LEGEND! And because of that, she still lives. (ps, find her films—they're great!)

146 I believe that isn't a slash ship, so RPF—but whatever with those RPF haters. They're tiresome.

157 Tell me about it. Fandoms can be great, or they can break your heart, and sometimes it's better to just avoid them.

163 Sports RPS makes me all happy inside, seriously.

171 From someone who constantly has to remind herself of this: you can't do or not do things based on what a bunch of judgmental haters would think. Half of them will hate you for some other arbitrary reason anyway. Which sucks? But there it is.

"I love you, Buffalo."

Re: 111

[malignantdaisy.livejournal.com]

"Almost wasn't mellow there."

116, 117, 138, 140, 169

[ibroketuesday.livejournal.com]

116. Oh, this should be fun. *settles down, waits for wank*

117: Agreed.

138: Really? Because I was kind of loling when Dean was drilling into his mouth and Alastair was making BIG GOOGLY FISH EYES.

140: I'm not religious myself, but I find this secret to be somewhat adorable.

169: Having an OTP is always a mixed bag for me. On one hand, squeeing, searching for fic, engaging in cracky discussions, that's all so much fun. On the other, it can also get to the point where you get kinda... possessive, and that's not such a blast.

Re: 116, 117, 138, 140, 169

[(Anonymous)]

Er, Dean wasn't drilling into his mouth. O.o; He was pouring salt down Alistair's throat.

101

[darcerin.livejournal.com]

This. Wholeheartedly agree.

126

[berrypop90.livejournal.com]

Everytime I watch this show, I think the same exact thing. But mostly about Geof. The thought always makes me giggle.

126 OP

[(Anonymous)]

I love Geof. He is clearly a massive pothead.

(And dude, how awesome would it be to be a pothead working in a bakery?)

139

[palmetto.livejournal.com]

Don't worry, I think the show is doing the same damn thing.

[tellingtime.livejournal.com]

126. Ahaha, YES. And I think I have a crush on Geof. He's like the calmest motherfucker ever.

126 OP

[(Anonymous)]

Potheads tend to be really chill people, in my experience. XD And I said this to someone like two comments above you - how awesome would it be to be a pothead working in a bakery?

117

[(Anonymous)]

117. IASFM. I have no problem with people slashing. Some people get off at the idea of two men together, and I could get behind that too. But I don't get how it can be feminist.

How does pushing well-written female characters to the background so you can fangirl over how two guys are totally hot for each other, regardless of canon, equal feminism? And yes, I am aware that not every show or fandom has well-written female characters, and I don't expect every feminist to be forced to like a het pairing, or even a femslash pairing, but it's the moral high ground that slashers walk on that pisses me off.

There are several well-written female characters out there to be explored. And yet, slashers I've seen ranting about how slash is feminist, say there aren't. So, are those slashers' standards for women just completely out of reach? Because if none of the women in the fandoms slash is popular are "strong" enough, then I think slashers need to re-evaluate what being a strong woman in a post-feminist world is.

Re: 117

[(Anonymous)]

this.

[sarajayechan.livejournal.com]

117. Word, etc.

119. People who lambaste things for not being Just Like Real Life annoy the crap out of me. Realism is NICE, but fiction is called fiction for a reason.

142. I look down on people who look down on people over anime. :')

165. LOLCats rule.

171. You should take it. Fuck people who cry "weeaboo" over every little thing.

[seiberwing.livejournal.com]

112. Sometimes people like to read about their own issues in romanticized, fictional form. It happens. To me.

117. Wait, what? I'm confused. You can be feminist and a slash fan, but you're a bad feminist if you slash?

130. Another no true Sxotsman secret? Boring.

[chairman-wow.livejournal.com]

re: 117, I think they're saying slash does not intrinsically give you feminist awesome points, or something like that? I've never come across these slash fans who claim that it does, seems a bit silly to go around bashing and/or ignoring female characters and claiming it makes you a feminist. (Not that all slahsers are female-bashers, obviously.)

[fluxy-2535.livejournal.com]

126- I'm sure most of the bakery spends their days stoned off their asses. You can just tell by the way they interact.

126 OP

[(Anonymous)]

I want that job so bad, man. I could get blazed and bake cakes. I would totally be down with that.

[yui-hime.livejournal.com]

108) People think he's insignificant? D: This might be why I try to avoid Pokemon fandom outside of D/P and green-haired cuties in go-go dresses and tights Team Galactic.

134) Sauce?

142) "Your Mileage May Vary" - you're doing it wrong. Just because you find the series boring doesn't give you a right to bash it or the people who actually enjoyed it.

108 OP

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, the main basis of their argument towards his obscurity is usually along the lines of "but he was only in like, five episodes!" You can't imagine how many times I've heard/read that.

And congratulations, I got a good LOL IRL @ your strikeout'd text.

167

[panicake.livejournal.com]

All of them are such great guys, I don't really blame you for wanting a piece of turtle ass :P

[zealmightyspork.livejournal.com]

114. Yes ♥

135. holy shit, gtfo. I dropped Lost halfway season 3 (I think the Jack and STD-chick ep was the last straw) halfway, AND I REGRET NOTHING. I shouldn't have to sit through a season of shit to get to the good stuff. That doesn't equal a good show.

142. ...You're one of the people who flails over Lucky Star or School Days, aren't you?

[melengro.livejournal.com]

142. ...wait, do you mean the School Days that I'm thinking of? The 'nice boat' show?

111, 140

[therenewer.livejournal.com]

111- YES. Not only is it an MST3K secret, but Riding with Death...Wow... <3 to Anon...and I think I'm on your ship as well. lol


140- Completely understandable. <3

171

[mrschul.livejournal.com]

I don't want to be considered a weaboo and I still take Japanese. But you know what it really comes down to whether or not YOU think you're a weaboo.

[otempora42.livejournal.com]

107. Well, I love Neil in anything, but Barney's so much hotter this season. It's the vulnerability, I think.

170. Join the club, OP. Join the club.

*would hit it in a heartbeat. If he wasn't gay and taken*

Plus, all of his characters are either adorable or hot. Or both.
