I'm just going to pretend I didn't hear the words "regular show" and "kink meme" mentioned together.

...so glad I didn't venture into this fandom. Please tell me that it's not all mordecai/rigby slash.

In fact, I'm really surprised at the response to this- I thought most people were brought up this way.

Are you just trolling, just that much of a dumbass, or did your dad homeschool you and keep you locked in the basement until you were 18 (provided you even are)?

Edited 2011-04-06 01:42 (UTC)

No self-respecting Homestuck fan could watch this anime and not think this, especially after episode ten! Remember get that shit linked all over Tumblr when it's done!

See, I had a huge problem with the comment because it was "what Polanski did was unacceptable, but let me list some reasons why it wasn't really his fault/why he didn't think it was rape/why it was kind of okay". That's what I had problems with. When the OP of that comment said that he won't do it again because he's afraid of going to jail, and not because he was sorry and he realized what he did was wrong, I took issue with that.

I don't think the OP is going 'WOO RAPE' but there were some very large issues with their comment.

Well, it's just because I thought it was an interesting representation of real attitudes that I see online. Women sometimes go incognito because men tend to be dicks to them in competitive games like the fighting thing, so I was excited to see that the player behind the male avatar was female.

He's still awesome, but I guess I was excited to see an androgynous female character who is physically powerful and computer smart. They don't turn up very often!

It's GI Joe: Renegades. It's actually surprisingly awesome. Watched it with my little brother at his behest, did not expect to completely fall in love with it.

I don't think paying the bills is anything Johnny Depp, Ewan McGregor, Kate Winslet and Jodie Foster have to worry about.

Skins fandom has a way of being super fail. It almost ruined Gen2 for me with the ridiculous hatred over Freddie.

I'm not trolling and I'm not a dumbass. I went to private school with a focus on economics.

I'm also 20 years old, and studying economics and computer science.

There are some straight women who are all "ewww!" and "gross" about lesbians but totally fine with gay men. Lesbiophobe is a very good word for describing them.

That's true. But a lot of people do, and if they were given the chance to act for a lot of money? I think many of them would take it.

Shit, the Anderson Tapes! ♥ I still can't believe he was ever that young.

STILL THY TONGUE

CAN'T HARDLY WAIT IS AWESOME

Look, it's Seth Green. He's hot, and he's fantastic. I want to bang him in Without A Paddle. That's nothing to feel bad about, especially since Kenny ends up being a well-intentioned (if a little embarrassing and goofy) guy.

Interesting. So I guess that means that technically, female werewolves should not be called werewolves (wowolves, I guess?).

Dude, Alien Loves Predator is still going on?? I thought it was on permanent hiatus when he had his twins. Damn I gotta catch up!

...so, to be on-topic, I can't comment to the direct secret, but I must say that AlP is awesome.

I actually did haha |: And bought the first season so that it wouldn't look weird when I buy the fourth for him. He's worth it, imo

Hell yes. Can I ask what your icon is from? I recognise it.

He is adorable in his hipsterness.

Yeah, I heard about the video from the local news. I am SO thankful it was a lead-in before a commercial break, because I changed that channel so fast. That is definitely not something I want to see, ever.

Private school with a focus on economics

Well, there's your problem. The actual field of economics and business does not give a flying fuck about anything but the bottom line. People? Eh, who cares. They're supposed to be rational actors!

Ah, private school. Forgot that one. Because I was seriously baffled at you thinking "wealth means everything" was the only way anyone was ever raised. But I guess when you're raised by and surrounded by people just like your dad all your life, it makes sense. I actually pity more than hate you, 'cause that's kinda sad.

I think JV would prefer if they didn't. His whole experience with Nick put him off 2D animation forever.

I think there is actual overlap. It isn't just people I know (if it were, I'd assume it was my fault), it's random people I find by searching tags on Tumblr.

I agree with this comment, so much.

I don't usually do this, but I'm going to break out the terms "Watsonian/Doylist". Nearly everyone who addresses this issue does so from the Watsonian perspective: the reason that Willow identifies as fully 100% GAY NOW so-you-are-being-sooooo-stupid-if-you-even-suggest-that-she-once-liked-any-man-let-alone-several is that THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT SHE IS and SHE KNOWS AND YOU DON'T HAVE ANY RIGHT TO SUGGEST SHE COULD POSSIBLY BE INACCURATE.

But the explanation that truly makes sense is Doylist, not Watsonian: for whatever reason, TPTB simply wanted a major lesbian-not-bi character, and wanted it badly enough to try and make Willow that character even though she hadn't been written or played that way. And that frankly wasn't a good decision, because the Kuleshov effect only goes so far; despite TPTB literally depicting the relationship between Willow and Tara as OMG-magical, it couldn't erase what we had seen of Willow with Xander and Oz, which just simply didn't seem like a-young-woman-who-only-thinks-she's-into-the-person-she's-with.

So the only TPTB really could do was make Willow's Kinsey-6 an Informed Attribute. (You know, like when the B-movie is about a musician whose music has made him beloved worldwide but they can't afford to hire a musician for the role who's actually that good, so instead they have characters listen to the music and squee and swoon and declare "Oh my God, he is absolutely a world-class talent!") Of course, with Willow, it didn't make sense to have Buffy or Xander or Giles declare "Gosh, Willow, you sure are 100% lesbian-and-not-bi now!" so they had Willow doing it, but it was still the same trick pulled by B-movie producers: it was trying to tell us through dialogue we'd seen something when that wasn't what they showed us.

There's no way to disprove the Watsonian hypothesis that Willow abruptly denies all her past history with men and starts announcing the "GAY NOW" because, in fact, she is wholly gay, and just took some time to find it out. But the Doylist hypothesis that "TPTB pushed it on us even though it didn't really make sense with what they'd already established, like they did with A LOT OF THINGS in Season 4" makes a lot more sense.

Thought of that scene... heart just broke. My tiny gingers... why so adorable?
