Sue Thomas, F.B.Eye was a good show! Unfortunately, it was a show from a religious channel, PAX I think it was - not sure it exists any more - and it seemed like the characters (especially Sue) didn't go five seconds without mentioning God and their love for God. Which is fine if you like that kind of thing, but it definitely gets old fast if you're not religious.

SA
Heh, you're right. Well, I grew up with a foreign dub, so I probably forgot about that.

Nothin' wrong with a little icon love. Thanks! <33

Is it really? I don't quite understand what you mean by "roll up on", but to get over the fear she'll have to start interacting with dogs normally. And I'm not trying to be cruel; I was bitten in the face (by a Great Dane!) as a child of about twelve, and had to consciously work with myself afterwards not to give in to fear. As a result, I don't have a fear of dogs today.

THANK YOU

HAVING AUTISM/OTHER MENTAL DISORDER DOES NOT GIVE YOU AN EXCUSE TO BE AN ASSHOLE

Yes!! I love Sazh, he's one of my favorite characters. I have a thing for gun-weilding fathers in fiction and everything about him is perfect. He's the only reason I'm still trying to beat the game, I want to see him win. ;_;

Not OP, but I've often talked to my RP partners in between turns - little comments about the RP, a bit of chatting before getting started, sharing links or book recs or stuff like that, without necessarily having long, completely fandom-unrelated discussions about our real lives, our work, our family etc. So I get how you can have the impression that your RP partner is a funny, nice, interesting person whom you might want to know a bit better.

This is like that awful "Are anime characters asian or white" argument, IT DOESN'T MATTER.

Gah, yes, Snow. You look like you're thirty, stop creeping on the high school girls!

(I know technically there isn't a big age gap, but their appearances and the way they act just stink of older guy and underage girl.)

I can relate, OP. I've always written in small fandoms, but now I have an idea for a Supernatural fic, and I really want to write and post it ... but it's such a HUGE fandom, and after fandoms in which everybody knew each other I find that so intimidating. I'm afraid of either getting bashed or just completely ignored because nobody knows who I am.

Thanks for sharing, hadn't seen it before. While I have many problems with this video, there's also a lot of good in it.

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, but you consciously worked with yourself. There's a difference between someone willingly working on a fear/phobia/whatever, and people knowing about a problem and purposely ignoring and provoking. You working with dogs = cool. Friends knowing about a fear of dogs and purposely ignoring that and shoving dogs into your live = not cool.

Haha, that's awesome! :D

"the label actually gives people a reason to rely on their illness as a crutch,"

and that's the type of thinking that gets people into trouble. A label or diagnosis should not be an excuse, and people who use it as such are wrong. A diagnosis is there to help you cope and understand yourself. Example: I have ADD. I don't use this as an excuse to jump all over the room or have shitty papers or whatever. I use it as a tool to then go and research coping mechanisms and things that will specifically help a brain with ADD.

And I'm not saying that everyone does this, but the whole using it as an excuse thing just perpetuates horrible stereotypes and ideas, and then we get secrets like this.

Yeah, it isn't fair we have to self police, other people should make the effort to understand. And Daddy is going to buy me a pony, and we'll all have world peace before Valentines day.

If we don't self police then no one will, and the situation will keep replicating itself. It isn't fair, but fuck it, we don't live in a fair world and every sub-culture that has gained acceptance has done it because they self-policed, confronted and kicked out the wackos. That is just the way the world works. Live with it. The rest of the world doesn't care, and is happy to roll with whatever it sees, we are responsible for what it does see though.

I certainly understood that- sometimes when I'm practicing German I can't think of the word, I say the Spanish word I learned back in middle school.

As for Japanese, I was thinking about those people who actually purposefully and consciously say desu or kawaii out of nowhere just to sound cool (in their minds). It's obvious most of them aren't actively learning Japanese and are just parroting what they learn from anime.

You'd be surprised. Grammar might not work that way, and it doesn't, but vocab and grammar are learnt differently. A lot of people (not all, because there are as many ways of learning as there people) learn vocab first and then learn grammar constructs separate. In the stage where you are internalising vocab it is very easy to do the direct word substitution. Thankfully, oh god thankfully, that tends to vanish once the grammar constructs kick in.

or you just like learning for learning's sake. What is wrong with studying for the joy of learning something new? When did education become yet another bean-counting exercise. Bring back classical education, and compulsory Latin and Ancient Greek lessons, for all. Keep the bean-counting exercises out of schools and universities!

Harsh, like life.

The real problem is parents of Autistic kids and Ass-pies using the diagnosis as a "get out of parenting free" card. Yeah, they now don't have to control their kid, everyone else just has to tolerate the little shit's bad behaviour because the brat is now special. If a kid gets a diagnosis of autism then it means parents have to work three or four times as hard teaching social norms, reinforcing social norms, looking at places and asking is it safe/fair (to the child and others) to take their kid there (and if it is a diagnosis of aspergers, it is a sign they need to go to a different clinician and get a real diagnosis instead of a fictional one). It is a life limiting diagnosis, not a responsibility abdicating one. Sadly very, very, very, very few parents actually want that responsibility. They are just there for the diagnosis so they can be relieved of the title of bad parent.
