[Picture is the cast of the anime "Dragon Ball Z".]

I used to hate anime, until my brother invited me to watch this. I'm so happy I did! On hindsight, this series was much deeper than I first realized. (Silliness and battles that wouldn't fucking end aside.)

[Picture is Jean Kirstein from the anime "Shingeki no Kyojin" or "Attack on Titan". He is a man with light olive skin, short light brown hair and holding what looks like gunblades with some wires coming out of the back? He is wearing a paramilitary type of uniform.]

It's so stupid but it drives me nuts when fanfiction says he dyes his hair blond. First off, it's not even blond, more like an ashy brown. And second, hair is usually darker at the roots so it would make sense for it to be darker where his hair is shaved and lighter where it's longer.

[Picture is Mary, as portrayed by Amy Adams, from the 2011 movie "The Muppets". There are some colorful muppets/puppets around her while she looks sort of paralyzed with anger and/or disbelief.]

I think she was selfish. Saving the studio was something very important, and all she cared about was them spending time with her. Plus, I found it awful how she described Walter as Gary's friend instead of his brother, it just seemed so disrespectful, and it seemed like she was just mean to him the whole time.

Secret because no one should care that much about what went on the Muppets Movie.

[Picture is William Lennox, as portrayed by Josh Duhamel? from the movie "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen". He is a man with olive skin and short dark brown hair wearing a military uniform and walking next to some jeeps.]

He felt like a different character all through Revenge of the Fallen. He was SO reactionary until the last twenty minutes, when he started leading his unit. Yes, he's not going to act the same way around superior officers, whether or not he agrees with their orders. But he's still going to be the same guy.

Too long; didn't read: This guy wasn't as good an actor as I first thought.

[Picture is Elsa from the CGI animated film "Frozen". She is a young woman with light skin, blue eyes?, very light blond hair pulled back and wearing royalty-style clothing looking sad and teary-eyed. There is some text written next to her picture: "Elsa: Don't let them in, don't let them see; Be the good girl you always have to be; Conceal, don't feel, put on a show; Make one wrong move and everyone will know."]

[Text from the secret maker]

One of my parents has been in a pretty unstable condition lately, both physically and emotionally. Because of this any show of negative emotions makes them stress out and ends with them becoming sick.

Ever since I saw this movie, I use this mantra to keep everything bottled in. It really helps me maintain a cold, unfeeling exterior, allowing me to continue functioning and allowing them to be calm and happy.

I know this is not healthy, but I don't know what else to do.

Secret Because: Isn't one of the themes of this movie that holding everything in doesn't work and ends up making everything worse?

[Picture is Queen Regina and Rumpelstiltskin above, and Prince Charming and Snow White below, all characters from the TV series "Once Upon a Time".]

I think they [Regina, Rumpelstiltskin] are more sympathetic than they [Charming, Snow White] are.

[Picture is a panel from the webcomic "Dissonance". It shows the silhouette of a person walking away while a balding man looks on. The silhouetted person says "I'm sorry, father... but if this was a test of faith... I'm afraid I've failed."]

Months or years after a webcomic has apparently died, I still keep checking for updates.

[Picture is the actress Zooey Deschanel making a surprised face. She has long wavy dark brown hair with some lighter brown highlights, blue eyes and red painted lips. She is wearing a blouse? of white semi-transparent fabric.]

I don't understand her popularity at all. Sure, she's pretty (a lot of actresses are), but she's bland as hell, and she does the same dull wide-eyed kinda-kooky acting in every movie she appears in.

[Picture is two mashed up pictures, one of a tall pole with bright signs and advertisements in a city with tall buildings, and another of the town of Ponyville from the cartoon "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic". There is a silhouette of a man? in front of the city, and the silhouette of a cartoon pony in front of the cartoon town.]

If you've ever written a story for the "Conversion Bureau" shared universe, and it wasn't a parody or an attack on the premise, I won't read, comment on, or acknowledge the existence of anything you've ever written.

As a rule of thumb, most multi-author settings in this fandom are creepy as fuck, but the Conversion Bureau takes it to a whole new level, and authors who're willing to write for it tend to put their misanthropy into all their other stories. Usually at length.

From TV Tropes:

Conversion Bureau fics are set on an Earth some time in the future, where the island (or pocket universe) of Equestria has suddenly appeared in the sea. Unfortunately, the realm of Equestria is pushing into Earth's territory, and the magic of Equestria is lethal to humans. In a few short years, Equestria will flood Earth with magic, and there will be nowhere left for humanity to live. To fix this, Princess Celestia sets up "Conversion Bureaus" all around Earth, offering the humans the chance to be turned into ponies and eventually live in Equestria.

[Picture is an image from the book "Eona: The Last Dragoneye" or "Eona" or "The Necklace of the Gods" by the author Alison Goodman. It shows a woman wearing a red sleeveless shirt and red pants and carrying two swords making a pose. There is a faded dragon in the background.]

There are so many things about this book that are gross and wrong and just plain stupid... which is why I feel ashamed for enjoying it so much. I'm still halfway in denial about the fact that I kind of ship her with Ido. (And by "kind of" I mean "absolutely".) I can't even count the number of ways that is terrible and fucked up. (I could probably count the ways but please don't make me it would hurt..)

Happy New Year, transcript anon! Thanks for keeping this up! :D!

Happy New Year, you too! c:
