Call me crazy, but I think the original Kirk and Spock were pretty damn beautiful.

I anticipate many "FEMALE CHARACTERS SUCK" replies.

117 OP

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, I'm getting about forty percent 'female characters just suck/aren't as interesting in my fandoms', about thirty percent 'but it's just about the porn, innit', and about 30 percent agreement.

Hello. Obvious TAS fan here 8U

There are a fair number of people that don't like Martin's work. They've made themselves fairly known. No, you're not a bad Yuugimons fan if you don't like him or whomever that other person is. See? I don't even know them.

People like what they like. And popular things are popular for a reason, even if they are overhyped to a degree.

It's just, ffs why are people under the impression that if you don't like [insert popular thing from fandom] that you're a bad fan? It's stupid. Seriously. And if someone calls you a bad fan because you don't like it, then they're the idiot.

TL;DR FANDOM IS SUPPOSED TO BE FUN, STOP MAKING IT SRS BSNS.

Hello. Obvious TAS fan here

Let's celebrate by watching Cannibal Holocaust!

[boombangbing.livejournal.com]

105 - Wow, I've never seen girl!Nite Owl, before. That is incredibly awesome! ♥

137 - I feel like a bad fan - I like Dani, but I'm really going to miss Jane if/when she leaves.

151 - I kind of get where you're coming from, except wtf TOS had pleeenty of pretty people in it.

Didn't Gino end hating Suzaku's guts way before the series even ended?

143

[yummycoffee.livejournal.com]

You won't be feeling the same way about him in a few more hours. ;)

Re: 143

[shiplizard.livejournal.com]

I was waiting for someone to say this.

I was kind of hoping the secret was comment-bait, because otherwise it's really kind of sad. :(

101

[amethyst-wolf.livejournal.com]

Who cares? And I mean that in the most positive way.

By some definition, I'm considered to be a 'stereotypical' girl gamer - only because I fit the requirements of 'a person who games who happens to also have a vagina'.
For the record: I'm a huge MGS fan- jesus, for 10 years, already. I like Katamari Damacy, and I've been a huge JRPG fan since I was a little girl. This doesn't reduce any 'gamer cred' or make me any less of a gamer.
Conversely, I do genuinely like games like Call of Duty 4, or WoW- but that shouldn't make me this uber gamer, either. You like what you like, and that's that.

What I'm trying to say is: man, it really doesn't make a difference as to what games you like. As long as you are enjoying yourself, and you like them, what does it matter what anyone else thinks? Why should you let other people's opinions water down your enjoyment?

You can't change anyone's opinions, so you may as well pay no mind to their pettiness and just have fun with your games. Life's too short to worry about what other people think of you.

edit!;
Conversely, don't be fake, either. From what I understand, it's actually more of a stereotype for a girl to fake enjoying 'popular' games for the sake of fitting in. If something doesn't float your boat, just say so, anon.

[lucia-tanaka.livejournal.com]

130. Me toooo. :3 When they practically have sex on stage, how can you not? :D

143. Yanno, I really didn't feel like killing Fountaine at first because I really hated Ryan and had no major issues with what Fountaine did. But once dear old Frank mocked me in the Proving Grounds for feeling bad for Atlas and his family, the fucker was goin' down. >:|

Re: 130, 143

[yummycoffee.livejournal.com]

re 143: wow, really? I mean really? Did we play the same game? D:

151

[neth-dugan.livejournal.com]

Trouble is, there are so many generations of Trek fans.

There's those who got into it right at the start. Those who got into it when TOS was being repeated. And those who sorta trickled in after. There's those who got into it when TNG came out, when DS9 came out, when Voyager came out and so on so forth. This is simply another wave.

Personally? I grew up on TNG (literally), it came out the year I was born but DS9 is my fave. And that series happens to have a damn good looking cast in my opinion. Siddig is one hell of a good looking man, for example.


That said, I can see what you're worried about - it's a point. But so long as they make a point to look at and understand the original text you can't get after them too much. Those joining in due to the movie may be a new and scary wave but it's perfectly possible that they'll become actual Trekkers rather than movie!Trek fangirls and fanboys.

Re: 151

[veronica-rich.livejournal.com]

You seem very wise, especially the last paragraph. Coming new into an established fandom, you DO have to hold your tongue for a while and understand the dynamics of longer fans and what they like, IMO.

151

[pimpmytardis.livejournal.com]

151. Really? I know DW fandom has a lot of crazy, but it was through New Who that I got into Old Who and I made a bunch of really lovely friends. Because of one of my Old Who friends I rented the TOS DVDs and enjoyed them waaaaay more than I did as a kid.

As far as I'm concerned, the best thing that could happen because of the ST movie is new fen do a similar parallel to the DW fen and check out TOS. Also, I personally find the real TOS cast more attractive by far than the new ones.

But it's clear that you have a grudge, and I'm not even going to address your "we're geeks we don't need the pretty" because WTF?

Re: 151

[neth-dugan.livejournal.com]

I know right? Just because we're geeks doesn't mean we can't apreciate the pretty.

164

[pimpfork.livejournal.com]

Hell yeah <3 *loves the music from that game so hard*

[flowerofsin.livejournal.com]

N!S2. True fans remember the minutiae.
135. FFFFFF.
139. It's okay. Not everyone finds it or Python in general funny. I find that sketch hysterical, but it's hard to explain why.
151. Star Trek: TOS wasn't full of attractive people? Really?

149, 166

[lavaliere]

149. I ship it, even if Gino was reeeeeally disappointed with Suzaku's choices towards the end. ):

166. Browsing some of these replies... You know, I'm thinking the bit on Scrib is a bit off, considering how many people DON'T KNOW WHO SHE IS. Seems pretty fail, imo.

Re: 166

[astraybucanneer.livejournal.com]

I can't say this for certain, but perhaps that's just because not very many people know what she looks like? LK has posted more videos and pictures of himself than Scrib has so he's fairly recognizable, even if I'm sure a fair amount of people can remember her username from ff.net.

Yeah, I'm not even sure if this matters. I can see what you're saying, and for the most part, I agree. Not quite sure whether to be annoyed, confused, or just put off by this secret. :|

[callmejude.livejournal.com]

125. ZOMG AARON ECKHART. WHAT IS THIS?

142. D: I'm so sorry to hear that. That song always makes me cry because my relationship with my mother is like that, and I realize how lucky I am. I'm sorry that your relationship isn't better. *hug*

148. SAME HERE. It didn't ruin vampires for me (although I'm sick of defending my interest in vampires is oler than those dumbass books, I don't really care), but I like glitter and sparkles. D: They DON'T belong on vampires. :/

155. A part of me will always believe they're canon, anyway. Because I'm a nutjob. XD

161. !! I agree full-heartedly with the lack of chemistry between Sheldon and Penny, and that Leonard/Penny is the cuter couple, but don't call Sheldon 1-demensional. D: His point is that he's very unpersonable, and people that lacking in social skills usually come off as stiff or one-demensional, but they aren't.

Well, a lot (not all, but a lot) of slash is erotic in intent. Or has some erotic/romantic content by definition (certainly romantic if not erotic, otherwise it would be "gen" fic).

And a woman who is very straight in orientation, is not attracted romantically or sexually to other women, may very likely not be interested in reading femmeslash for that reason. I don't see it as such a big deal. My SO is a very, very straight male and I certainly wouldn't expect him to be all that enthused about reading m/m slash fic. Nor would I get all upset about that being the case.

That doesn't mean I think it's cool to go "ew! femmeslash!" any more than it's cool to go "ew! slash!" or even "ew! gen!" If something's not your cuppa, just let it be. But you can't *force* someone to like a particular kind of fic either if it's not to their tastes or interests...

Re: 117

[aquila-star.livejournal.com]

Yeah, this. *thumbs up*

[obvious-wing.livejournal.com]

108. LOL worst show EVER. At least, in my opinion :D I don't hate the ship any, just. Seriously. Worst ever.

117. I don't see why just liking m/m is a bad thing. That's just my preference. I read fic for the pr0n. If that makes me a bad person, that's fine. I ship people who's relationship I find interesting and all that, but I'm essentially reading because it's hot and entertaining. Not because I have to "on principle" to be considered an adequate slash fan. I don't seek fic for people I ship if I'm not gonna find it hot, you know?

121. LOLOLOL!! I'm not part of the House fandom, but that secret had me laughing hard for some reason. Great wording.

135. Song is SEXY. Just saying.

148. LULZ, what a great secret! Dude, apparently they were selling $10 Edward Cullen sparkles in a tiny jar at Hot Topic, WTF. So my friend stole one, on principle. I LOL'd.

117 OP

[(Anonymous)]

That's fair.

[carbonatedh2o.livejournal.com]

121. I was unaware that these fics existed. XD Could someone link me to one or more for teh lulz?

[(Anonymous)]

Most of them are in the dark_wilson community.

[wanderingscribe.livejournal.com]

117) Slash is not really slash, no. It used to be a catch-all term, if I recall, but when people started using terms like fem(me)slash to separate lesbian sex from gay sex, the meaning of slash shifted to become male-male only.

138) Who is that? He reminds me of a scruffier version of chef Aaron Sanchez and it's really messin' with my head.

143) I have some bad news for you, OP.

149) Are you a Zutara fan by any chance? Something seems familiar and I can quite place--oh, wait. Same delusional batshit, different pairing and fandom.

[pureaddiction.livejournal.com]

138. Russel Brand :)

111, 124, 138, 157, 158, tb-secret1.

[mutantjules.livejournal.com]

111. eh, I get your point, but I didn't see it as Emily pressuring her. she kissed her at the party and Naomi clearly didn't mind, and from that point on, she definitely wasn't saying "I'M NOT GAY OK" any more. she's bi. appreciate it, cause according to most tv shows, we don't exist.

124, dude. even if your flist doesn't understand, it's YOUR journal, not theirs. what's the worst that could happen? they unfriend you? and that'd be pretty fucking crazy if anyone took you off their flist because of a fandom-related comm you joined. realistically, maybe a few of them would just go "um. really?" and you'd say "YES. I KNOW IT'S WEIRD BUT I AM TOTALLY INTO HIM. XD" and everybody just gets on with their lives.
plus, in case you haven't noticed by now, you are IN NO WAY the only one suffering from crazygingerhobo-lust.

138, there are few stars out there quite so likely to nail their fans so I think you should MAKE IT HAPPEN. next time he comes to your town on some comedy thing, get tickets/find some way to get backstage/wait by his bus. chat him up, he will totally do you.

157. BAHAHA I KNOW RIGHT. like, minus the Green Day, but I remember giving my first blowjob and remembering shit I'd read in fics (like humming while you suck, hee), and trying it out and the dude loved it and I was like "IT REALLY WORKS? OMG!!!"

158, bahaha again. it's not EVERYONE, just more people than expected.

too-big secret 1...OMG. Gerahhd Butler would be good as Crowley, but I'm still and shall always be stuck on Johnny Depp for the part (the writers had him in mind WHILE WRITING IT, everyone else can bugger off). PATRICK WILSON AS AZIRAPHALE, HOWEVER, I DON'T KNOW HOW I NEVER THOUGHT OF IT BEFORE BUT HOLY CRAP YES PLEASE NOW.

161

[earthquakedream.livejournal.com]

THANK YOU. I'm glad I'm not the only one.

138, 124, 105

[pureaddiction.livejournal.com]

138 - Oh my god me too. Seriously. Sleep with Russel Brand may as well be one of life goals. :)

124 - Just do it. It's the Internet. I did for the lolz mainly.

105 - Aw. Danielle. <3

102

[jazmin-firewing.livejournal.com]

I really want to know what this game is now. And what the macro is referring to. Can somebody help me out, please?

Re: 102

[sharp-jolt.livejournal.com]

The game is The World Ends With You.
I've never seen the macro but it probably has something to do with Joshua, the bitchy girly boy (pretty much the only way to describe him..oh and smartass)

106

[lacommunarde.livejournal.com]

You'd want to deal with Immacolata?! (I know, the world is just beautiful, isn't it?)

117

[kathkin.livejournal.com]

117. I have yet to find a femmeslash pairing that does it for me. I don't know what it is. I'll read the fic, but I don't ship it.
