But how do you feel about fast cars? :P After checking facebook this morning, I'm reminded that I hate people, so I'm gonna make a post about Fast Five and maybe do a picspam of sexy cars.

I will never understand people.

And your PS makes me shake my head because really? Not everyone likes the same thing. If we did, the world would be a boring boring place! And trying to pressure someone into liking something because you like it? Just seems ridiculous. I mean, it's one thing to say "Hey, I love this show, you should check it out so I have someone to squee with!" but we like what we like.

I've been relatively absent from the internet lately, but I see it's apparently still as crazy as ever.

I sort of wish I *was* absent from the internet right now, but wherever I went, there would be *people*. And people are so terribly fucking annoying. And yeah, there doesn't seem to be a lot of middle ground between "SHUT UP STOP BEING HAPPY" and "WOOOOO YEAAAAHHHHHH AMERIKKKKAA AAAAAA FLAGS FLAGS" and I am just very tired of the news this last week. So far it's been "shut up you think you're so special because you're NOT INTERESTED in a wedding" and "so the army managed to get one of the people they were looking for, the one we, the press, turned into the boogeyman icon of terrorism - SHUT UP". I'm tired of "shut up".

And trying to pressure someone into liking something because you like itIt's the demands for reasons that I don't get. Apparently "I don't really like high school based stuff" or "I don't like high fantasy" or "I'm not a big fan of moral/improving fiction" is not ENOUGH, but I have to accept "I probably won't like your writing" as a reason for my friends not to read it? Man, one of these things is refusing to watch a ( ... )

Well, I'm absent from interacting with people on the internet. I've been trying to reorganize all my ridiculous attempts at fic (since I never tag my posts, lol, and everything I've written is hard to find) and have been reading ridiculous amounts of fic - mostly original stuff I'm finding via the_slash_pileI don't know why people have to go to such extremes. The majority of my flist/twitter feed/fb includes people who are more in the middle of the two extremes for the Bin Laden issue or who have conflicting emotions about it all, but the ones who feel strongly one way or the other are the ones who are (unsurprisingly) very very vocal about it ( ... )

Oooh, I'm not familiar with that community. Any chance of a rec post in future?

There was a wedding this week?

Some lass and some lad got hitched and everyone lost their shit? I could have done without the 37% cut in NHS funding that showed up at the same time.

If they had an objection to the subject matter or if they already knew they didn't like your writing style, that's one thing.

I do get a lot of people assuming that everything I write is buttsex porn, which is friendly. :)

That comm is one of my favorites. It's basically a comm just for reccing and requesting slash fic. It's a lot easier than trying to sort through the crap at places like adultfanfiction.net. I've recced a couple things in the past couple weeks, but I may do an actual rec post. :) I'm just lazy, haha.

I don't plan on ever getting married, but if I did, I would think that I would really hate having what should be a wonderful, personal, intimate occasion on display for the entire world to critique.

*sigh* I'm gonna win the lottery and buy an island.

Lol, are they disappointed when you write het or, shockingly, something without any sex at all? *g* I like your writing style, how it's dirty/rough/unpolished (not your actual writing, but the feel of it? if that makes sense) and evokes emotion and feels real, ( ... )

I think the show ponies Royals are used to it, but it can't have been the most relaxing thing in the world for the young lass knowing that the entire world media was staring up her left nostril.

IF YOU START YOUR OWN SOCIETY CAN I COME AND BE IN CHARGE OF THE ~SECRET POLICE~?

They don't ever read what I actually write, *because* I apparently write nothing but buttsex porn. Which is amusing. I've managed to trick a couple of those people into reading PtP and GASP. It ISN'T about buttsex after all.
