state of the asphinctersayswhat?
Perhaps because secretly, I want to alienate everyone on my friends list and the new people who have been friending me at a frightening rate [well, frightening to me at least], but probably because at this very slow speed [You're like a snail. A snail who's driving a car very slowly.], tonight's Angel episode will be finished downloading by the time the episode airs here and mostly because I am very peeved at certain memes going around, I hereby present this journal entry, In Which I Scoff At People.
Firstly -- the 20 people thing. I told lunakornkid this but it makes me feel ancient when I recognize an old meme going around. Kinda funny, that. It starts out nice, like that '10 Differing Opinions About Fandom' meme, but then turns into the '10 Things I Feel Really Passive-Aggressive About.' And on top of that, people get paranoid. Is s/he talking about me? Why isn't s/he talking about me?
And then there's the 'If My Life Were A Fandom'. I'm sorry, but that just screams 'Look at me! I want attention and fawning from my friends!' It's very so-called BNF-y, and the very fact that one is postulating that their life be so overpoweringly important as to deserve a fandom? Creeps me out.
Caveat: People, friends of mine. I've seen you do this meme, and I sincerely doubt that any of you had these things in mind.
But, for christ's sake. I see these EVERYWHERE! Damn dirty apes! It's a mad house! A mad...house.
And then a final repetition of what I have said over and over again. You tell me to eat a fucking sandwich I will shove it back in your fucking face. This goes for certain celebrities too. Keira, Sarah, god, even Mischa freaking Barton. [I can't stand Marissa anymore and 'meh' at Ms. Barton's acting skills, but I can sure defend her physique. And no, 'god' wasn't included in that list.] There are people like that who exist in this world without suffering from diseases. And that's not even the point. I used to blow up about this when I was a spoiler whore and certain people on BAPS would see one spoiler and make a gigantic assumption about something and HELLFIRE AND DAMNATION, and god almighty, Mutant Enemy wants Spike to DIE. The point is, no one has any idea whatsoever about people's eating habits. We have this attachment and possessive feelings about celebrities in the fandoms we participate in -- we're deluded into thinking we know everything about them. But the truth is, we know shit. So to assume, especially in that manner, does nothing but make an ass out of you.
Well, now that I've managed to piss someone off [I know you're out there], work in four BtVS references, and a Wayne's World one, I will now link you to Qveer Eye For Thye Medieval Man, A Prayer For Web Porn Surfers, and Howard Dean, the hottie.
And then I will go murder my dad, because he is the biggest asshat in the world. And then continue to stare at my pretty, pretty new icon. If you can't read the quotes? You're not really supposed to be able to. And if you can? I heart you.
Le sigh.
