1. Yeah, that happens. I thought it was retarded until it happened to me. Then I thought "ship wars" were retarded until someone attacked a "ship" (sorry, can't write that word without quotes) I thought was unassailable. I didn't get into a big tiff over it, but the extent to which I was irritated really surprised me. My advice is breathe, relax.

7. Man, I dunno. I definitely think Mike did a fine job, and it's certainly not worth arguing about, both MST3K eras are great, but... damn if Joel didn't have a certain something... Now I'm just terrified somebody is going to do an MST3K "I Ship It" secret, but it's probably already been done. Sigh. (Incidentally the character I missed the most was TV's Frank...) Keep circulating the tapes.


9. Of course you do. Because Iroh is completely goddamn awesome.

18. That's fucked up. Nobody on my f'list would fake a death. I feel for you.

19. I stopped being surprised by shit like this when people didn't know about Ranma or Kimagure Orange Road. But yeah, I hear you.

23. For what it's worth, my dream concert was fantastic. Just don't worry about it being some kind of huge peak experience, go to hear the music, and have a good time.

7. Frank. :( Is it weird to say that I cried when he died?

Yeah, it is.

Whoah whoah whoah wait what HE DIED?!?! The character or the actor?!

Damn, you scared the crap out of me. Okay then. Because Frank Conniff rocks.

I actually met and got his autograph at A-Kon 6. Oh shit, I have seriously dated myself. :-/

SERIOUSLY? *is jealous*

Love your username, by the way. <3

Ha ha, thanks, but why? XD I get self-conscious because of the weeaboo factor, even though I've had it since aught-two.

Yeah, don't worry, Frank's still kicking around. ^_^

In fact, he very recently did a cameo on episode #602 of The Radio Adventures of Doctor Floyd (www.doctorfloyd.com), a super-cute family-friendly podcast show thing. He's been on the show quite a bit, actually.

But this paticular episode also stars a certain Mr. Joel Hodgson. :D And if this episode is any indication, the creators of the podcast are HUUUGE fans of MST3K.

Awesome. Thank you!

Oh man, you're gonna hate me. When I decided to do a MST3K secret, my first thought was a Joel/Mike "I ship it." Cause I kinda do. ^^;;

But I realize that while slash is just a part of everyday life in most fandoms, MST3K is NOT one of those fandoms, and I understand when people get freaked out at the idea. Heck, just regular MST3K fanfiction (that aren't MSTings, I mean) is still a pretty alien concept! So uh, don't worry about it getting into the "main fandom," or anything. It's all very secretive and underground and rogue. >_>

How?! They were never on the SoL at the same time! I know, that doesn't have anything to do with slash possibilities, but whatever. :-)

I don't really see how MST fanfic would work. I mean, it could be done, but unless it were really funny, what would be the point? But don't let me stop you!

Anyway, yes, much Joel love. Think I'm gonna go watch Mitchell... HOT MERGING ACTION.

(Anonymous) 2007-07-23 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
Aha, that is where you are wrong - Joel visited the SOL and met Mike in the episode Soultaker! ...Not that it matters, he was only there briefly, and he was kind of a jerk to Mike anyway. >_<;; But, y'know, they could always meet up after Mike and the Bots get back to Earth and develop a friendship/rivalry that eventually maybe possibly leads to something more. And there's always AUs. ;D

I've seen a little MST3K fanfiction, and I agree that it doesn't really work unless it's funny and doesn't take itself too seriously. It depends on how well it's written, really. ^^

Have fun with Mitchell! "Oh, goodness, they merged successfully. My heart...was in my throat." XD

[identity profile] pts.livejournal.com 2007-07-23 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
Oh wow, you're right. I bow to your superior MST knowledge, and if you simply must ship them, well, go in peace. XD Soultaker also afforded some of the greatest lines.

"Bus-taker!"

"Leak-taker!"

Ah, Mitchell. "Now he looks like a smallmouth bass!"
