1. I'm 20 and I've had a crush on Aladdin since I was six. That man is cartoon-shaped Sex.

I do like some of his Final Fantasy work--but honestly that's him just phoning it in (especially for 7&8). Check out the breadth of his work; it's amazing (http://pics.livejournal.com/heebee/pic/0009rp0h) and beautiful (http://pics.livejournal.com/heebee/pic/0009s30c).

2. Same happened to me with this series so I wasn't too impressed/shocked when said major points happened. I was still able to enjoy it, untill the anime butchered the second half of the series. The last ep was still good though.

23. Not only that but they're all a bunch of annoying pre-teens. It seems that all the sane people have left the fandom or are very quiet. :[

Re: 23

[abyss-of-colors.livejournal.com]

There were sane people?!

I wish I knew what happened to the fandom. My guess is that people got interested in other fandoms or were so disappointed in not getting another season, they didn't come back.

19. You can take solace in your potential for multiple orgasm. Trust me, penises are overrated. I'm just sayin'.

Haha

[(Anonymous)]

As much as I hate being a woman. AGREED.

[virgo288.livejournal.com]

1. Heh you're not the only one.
18. Hey when does that ever matter?

OMG YOU'RE RIGHT! #18

[quasar-dilema.livejournal.com]

BE MY BNF!!!

But the Transformers one topped interspecies...omg.

Yeah uh the transformers person is retarded sorry. I mean wtf!

[flamingkitsune.livejournal.com]

1: Aladdin is love. ♥
8: I'm going to be completely unhelpful and just go YAY TURLOUGH. :9

[heron-advocate.livejournal.com]

1. Hell yes.

3. omfg I used to LOVE Liberty's Kids. I don't think there's any shame in loving a kids' show. It's a pretty regular thing for me. 8D

[jessibot.livejournal.com]

2 - Same thing here. I have never been more accidently spoiled than I have with Death Note, and it pisses me off so much. I was so looking forward to reading the manga way back when, but thanks to the retards who don't warn for spoilers, I've completely lost my enthusiasm. Bah.

[lightpipe.livejournal.com]

1 - ♥

11. To a degree I agree, but she's not playing under some pretentious delusion of masterful art, so I can't fault her. Plus she's funny.

24. He's not Nomura. That gives him automatic brownie points.

[akihisui.livejournal.com]

11. I like her, she makes me giggle. And she's got some other great stuff in her DA account. True its not for everyone, and no you're not a bad person.

PW is still young, lets enjoy it before the wank gets bigger than just spam posts. :/ Its already starting to happen on CR. Mostly stirred up by the same 4 users who REALLY need to chill out and quit the pointless emo about their retarded original characters.

[urplesquirrel.livejournal.com]

3. Hey, I readily admit to still loving some "kiddie" shows. Winnie the Pooh will always hold a special place in my heart.

15. Wow, y'know I usually have the urge to make fun of people who are so involved in a ship that they'll cry over it getting "sunk" in canon, but for some reason I want to hug you instead.

19. Girls can so top. I know I do. (And I'm still a virgin!) XP

19

[(Anonymous)]

Being a girl isn't the reason I don't think I can top. My personality is.

Actually in most of the discussions I'm talking about in my secret, everyone almost always agrees that the girl tops. And after a while, it feels like they're saying girls are supposed to top, and that makes me feel worse that I can't.

[verlaud.livejournal.com]

1. Aladdin ♥ :)

15. Aw :/ I know exactly how you feel about not telling anyone your fandom beliefs...it can be pretty lonely.

[i-dont-fly.livejournal.com]

:U

NUMBAH 21, GET DAH HELL OVA HAR, BETCH.

[anonymous-proxy.livejournal.com]

1. I LOVE ALADDIN! We should start a whole new world together~

13. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

18. ...dude, don't even get me started on HOW HOT BALTHIER X FRAN IS.

10

[gallo-de-pelea.livejournal.com]

FUCKING SIGNED.

I want Derby Chick TV series now now now

Re: 10

[(Anonymous)]

I want her to finish her Widerstand novel. I will camp outside the bookstore for that.

[xfkirsten.livejournal.com]

1. OMG YES ME TOO.

16. ...this isn't Stargate fandom, is it? 'Cause oh, lordy, I know someone like that in that fandom...

[zarla.livejournal.com]

11. I only post chibis once every few weeks, one post on each comm without any pictures crossposted anywhere. I only post each set of pictures once, all of it under an lj-cut, and I don't do it very frequently. I didn't think that was spamming... if anything I was trying to avoid that by stockpiling them and posting them all at once, rather than posting one thing every day.

As for worthless and uninspired... I know my art isn't that good and there are tons of artists better than me, so I at least try to make what I draw amusing, if nothing else. That's all I got sometimes, you know? Most of the time I just want to make people laugh, so the art usually takes second-place because it's the punchline that's important.

Really though, I didn't know I was spamming...I feel really bad about that now.

[rayiroth.livejournal.com]

ZARLA I LOVE YOU THOUGH.

Just saying...

I don't think it's possible to please everyone, sure, but you are entertaining a lot of us, and many of us are grateful about the sketches you do that make our days.

[pretentioustfu.livejournal.com]

12: I've had communities like that.

16: Yes, it's fiction, but are you soapboxing? Are you, as the author, favoring racism or sexism or homophobia in author's notes? Are you mangling characterization to make a main character something he/she is not (e.g. a racist, sexist, homophobe, adherent to a religion he has nothing in common with in canon) without any explanation for it but "I believe that way so he must too?" Are you treating real events like the Holocaust or Hiroshima flippantly, or failing to research an issue/a culture/etcetera?

I completely agree with the idea of fiction =/= reality, but the truth is, if a fair amount of people (or even one) is taking near-personal offense to your fiction, you need to take a long, hard look at it. See if you're creating offense, then see where, how, and if it's worth it or not to keep creating the "offense."

Maybe, in the end, you'll come to the conclusion I did when someone flamed a "controversial" fic: the flamer was being a ship-obsessed asshat who didn't like characterization except for her own OOC characterization and wanted fluffybunny fic rather than darkfic. If that's the case, you can happily move on and ignore whatever the person's saying, because they're the problem, not you. Maybe you'll see that the offended person actually has a good point, something that could be fixed without harming the story or characters. Either way, your fic can only be better for it, whether you decide that you're going to write what you want anyway, or you see something and go "wow, I need to Google that and develop it more/treat it more seriously/be nice."

[(Anonymous)]

but are you soapboxing?

that's rich, coming from you.

some people take offense when it rains.

it doesn't always mean the person who wrote the fic meant to be offensive. sometimes people look for something to be offended by, just so they can get all tl;dr in their righteous indignation.

22: So? You don't like to read angst. That's OK. As long as you live and let live for those of us who do.

24: That's Locke Cole. He and Edgar really make a good couple. That said, that art wasn't Amano's best, but Amano can do some really great art, and I much prefer his Locke design. Yes, it's effeminate and bishie, but it's hot. ♥

Re: continued since I hit enter by accident

[case]

24. Actually, that's Squall Leonhart. Just goes to prove how crazy similar all his stuff is...

1, 3, 21

[zoom-gas.livejournal.com]

1. *swoon*
3. I LOVE YOU. What show?!?!??!!!!!!!! I'm kind of obsessed with Arthur, so you aren't alone! Alot of stuff on PBS kids is really clever.
21. DO WANT. If you find any, LINK PLZ

Re: 1, 3, 21

[akisawana.livejournal.com]

livejournal community beexsam. Some good stuff there. I think the pairing's cute as all getout myself.

[kyaa.livejournal.com]

4. Durrr art is pretty

10. OH MAN, I remember obsessively checking her website to see if she'd updated. I loved her style and sense of humor, but yeah - never emailed her or anything. Just a nameless fan!!

18. I KNOW. IT IS LIKE. THE ONLY PAIRING I REALLY LIKED IN THAT GAME. ... Except Al Cid x everyone.

24. It's pretty hit or miss with me. Sometimes I really dig the dreamlike quality of some of his work, sometimes it just looks bleah :/

[princealia.livejournal.com]

1. I'D TAP THAT SEVERAL TIMES A DAY ♥

[dia-aren-marie.livejournal.com]
