I love you, Jane Austen, but...

Mansfield Park's heroine, Fanny Price, is amazingly contemptible in her ridiculous passivity, priggishness, and Mary Sueness. She lacks precisely the qualities that made your other female characters so interesting: ie, spirit, a lively mind, and a sense of humor. All she has is cringing timidity, frailty, and Virtue

Egh, I don´t like Mansfield Park much. Except the implied incest. Or was that just in the film.

Anyway, get yrself to glam_lolz, it´s Bolan week.

[katranna]

Oh, it's kinda in the book too. Hahah, definitely makes one go wtf?

Am not sure glam_lolz is the best place for me this week, I think I take it a bit wee too seriously. :-) Doesn't help that I'm studying Dionysus stuff now.

[electricwitch]

Ah dear. No lolzy ideas on what he would have done if he had lived? That´s the theme, I tried to put the most positive spin on it that I could think of, hee.

[katranna]

I think I'll be more in the mood for that on the birthday rather than the deathday, hee. See, too much Dionysus and Orpheus for me right now. First one descends into the underworld with the death and is all somber and srs, and then one ascends back up for the reincarnation/re-whatever you wanna call it, and then you can get drunk and be lolzy.

[electricwitch]

Well yes, but I don´t want sombre and srs, because I have to finish my dissertation so I can´t spend all week going BOLAN OMG NOOEZ.

Anyway, I don´t think being somber and srs suits me, I´d rather be like Bolan and write wry songs about going to hell.

Now I´m depressed argh. *crawls away in search of chocolate*

Oh man, see, this is why you don't want me on glam_lolz! The lolziest thing I can possibly post right now is really gay Dionysus stuff. Which is... off topic.

Um, watch Fastlane? That cheers me up! Though it's distracting as hell as well.

[electricwitch]

LOL oh well I have Bolan lolz to distract me. Thank God he was so hilarious. Though if I have to listen to Gloria Jones again I might actually have a break-down.
