14. Is it weird that I used to agree? First time I ever saw people using the adjective!noun form of stuff in fandom I assumed it meant the coding "not" was all wtf what are people talking about? *dies*

[melting.livejournal.com]

Ugh, before anyone gets on my case about it, none of these secrets are mine.

As for #6, other things killed the fandom for me.

ETA: And #9? I agree with your secret, but you'll sound more credible if you check your grammar.

11. Oh shit, I'm an asshole. :c That's really true of me...

13. SRSLY. +_+

[mercale.livejournal.com]

1. I just gotta say... I luvs you.

3. Seriously. Same here.

8. I know what you mean.

17. We need a program like alcoholics anonymous.

.06 Agreeing with you, six. Kinda depressing, I would have written fic otherwise.

[sarajayechan.livejournal.com]

10. A+

THE SKY IS BLUE. I SHOULD SUBMIT THAT AS A SECRET.

16 -- I've totally been tempted into downloading it. ¦] Just because from what little imagery I've seen of it, it looks like Eureka Seven meets FLCL laced with really good opium. It's probably more that that, I figure, but... still. XD

not-secret -- LOL, wank-starter much?

[karel]

16. What is this? I'm intrigued~

[dusk.livejournal.com]

4 Yeah, it's hard sometimes :( Maybe you shouldn't play in panfandoms if you don't think you can interest without being a bad RPer?

7 Jealous much? =/

As a major Asch fan, I have to say that I do not mind your opinion at all!
And I'm even happier that you don't flame him publicly or others for their opinions, so I really hope that others can grant you the same respect as you do them.
You are most definitely entitled to your opinion and to dislike him in peace.

[nanakibh.livejournal.com]

16 - You made me want to watch that now. XD; Just by the character art alone, I was interested and ran to look it up.

[experienced.livejournal.com]

5. YES. YES. YES. THANK YOU. I really, really, really don't like Asch. His backstory.... I won't go into a big rant about it here, but I considered it to just be one gigantic wangst button. Let's dislike him together. ♥

16. Holy shit I know you don't I. I tried to watch TTGL but Yoko annoyed the shit out of me. Actually the whole anime annoyed the shit out of me. Thanks again, 4chan. GIVE ME ANOTHER REASON TO TRY IT AGAIN. It looks nice and beautifully animated, but my god everyone going "OMG TTGL IS AMAZING AND ANY OTHER ANIME THIS SEASON SUCKS DONKEY COCK" makes me not want to touch it ever again.

though I agree Kamina/Simon is all 20 kinds of awesome.

[if-i-had-you.livejournal.com]

#2: Clarification is needed, plz.

#6: WHO ARE YOU.

BECAUSE I AGREE WITH YOU TTLY AND COULD HAVE LONG CONVERSATIONS WITH YOU ABOUT THIS. >:|

#12: Hmm.

[midvalley]

HELL YES.

Gurren Lagann is AWESOME.

[maeda.livejournal.com]

9 I suppose it's bad that I'm a touch pissed about there being 243 Panic! at the Disco fics and none for David Bowie or Orgy.

People have no taste.

12. I have a friend like that who basically makes her interpretation of a character a self-insertion, and she gets away with it because the character is somewhat like her, like your friend. People don't know how self-inserty she is, though, because hardly anyone in the RP knows her as well as I do. :/

[larvayne]

14. Guilty~ I apologise but it's a habit :x

4. I understand how you feel, it's kind of hard for me as well... But I think I manage. Relatively. Maybe you can try playing in roleplays with specific fandom-? Or try your best to work with the character while still staying close to canon?

[misheard.livejournal.com]

13. Word.
14. Guilty as charged, though I picked it up from another roleplay... So wait, all this time I've been insinuating that my female Naesala was IC instead of OOC? Wow. That's... *snicker* Looks like it's back to hyphens for me.

[wakeupfrenzy.livejournal.com]

5. YES. It's not even that so many people love Asch despite the fact that he's long haired Luke with less of a personality. It's the fact that people jump down your throat for your opinion. But then it's totally ok for them to turn around and bash Tear for an hour. :P

14. ...depends on the programming language? "!" usually means "not", sure, but I work with VB in Microsoft Access, and you can use a "!" like a "." in that language sometimes. Like, I might type Forms!frmMyReport!ReportDate to get the ReportDate from a form (or Me!ReportDate inside a form). I think it works with recordsets, too, like rs!FirstName. (DISCLAIMER: some of this syntax may be wrong, as I am le tired and not actually looking it up. But you get the idea.)

Which kind of makes more sense in the fannish context, since ReportDate "belongs" to the form?

What computer languages were popular when that showed up in fandom, anyway?

(I'm waaay overthinking this.)

[laurus-nobilis.livejournal.com]

4 - You don't need to ignore canon to make your character interact with characters from other fandoms! Think about it as writing a crossover, and interacting with crossover characters. Canon characterization still applies, you're just expanding on it.

Unless you're one of those people who sees crossovers as inherently AU, I guess.

[suntea.livejournal.com]

5 - I'm an Asch fan, but uh. In general, people should support each other's opinions o_o;

[pretentioustfu.livejournal.com]

11: WORD. Sometimes I feel like I'm the ONLY person who thinks the entire membership of lol_meme, /b/, and Encyclopedia Dramatica are trollish assholes who, for all their protestations that trolling, spamming, flaming, and stalking are "not taking the internet seriously," are actually taking the internet a whole lot more seriously than those of us who try to have peaceful, positive interaction online.

As in, if you truly don't care about something, why vandalize it and ruin it for everyone else who does, and actively insinuate yourself into a social network with the intent of gaming the system and eventually destroying it? If you truly don't care or are only around for laughs, why don't you just go to your favorite comedy site, laugh a while, and then log off and have the wonderful real life you boast so much about?

[ritalion.livejournal.com]

5. Oh, completely agreed. Asch kinda redeemed himself at end, for me anyways, but he still really annoyed me. At least he's not as annoying as Sync, who, IMO, was the flatest, most boring character in the whole game.
