There is but one pink menace, and that is CHERRY FLAVORED PEPTO BISMOL. TEN THOUSAND TIMES NASTIER THAN NORMAL FLAVOR.

[omnicat]

Is cherry-flavoured Pepto Bismol worse than Umbridge? Really, truly? Dolores I-Must-Not-Tell-Lies Muggleborn-Registration-Committee Umbridge?

Never mind me, I had to google the stuff. :P

The picture in that macro is so poorly done that I can do nothing but laugh.

Although to be honest I can think of an even more appropriate character to use with the pink menace thing than Relena and that would be the awesome lady in my icon. I mean aside from the pink limo, she isn't that often with the color pink.

(Of course bashing on that character for that is also ridiculous stupid and can induce me to slam my head against a wall.)

I HATE PHOTOSHOP LEAVE ME ALONE. 8\

Yeah, but is ChibiUsa ever called "Pink Menace" by the people bashing her? As far as I know that particular insult is Relena-specific, and that's what I was going for.

[monalisaofpasta]

HOnestly yes, I heard it about Chibiusa way back when and it is the character I think of first when I hear that term. Relena was always called stalker and useless and a bitch and all sorts of terms. She would be called out for the pink things, but to be honest I kind of wondered whether it took it from SM because the two fandoms did have significant crossover between fans. Like I said, I don't know the whole history, but I always heard that term more in conjunction with Sailor Moon fandom where it was regularly used and that is where I associate it with.

[omnicat]

As I am not in Sailor Moon fandom that isn't really my problem, BUT OKAY.

I notice that this conversation is decidedly lacking in quirky meme-ness. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUU- ?

Am I late to the party? xD Whenever Relena's in pink on the show it's either:
1. Pacifist school uniform
2. A business outfit

Her casual attire is white and purple, demmit. Her party dress is blue with a white flower. Her Sank Kingdom lady of war outfit is white. The dress she wears when she goes to shoot Une is white with a blue bow. Are we seeing a common theme here? xD

Besides, her parents bought that limo. I doubt she had a say in it.

[omnicat]

I wouldn't automatically object to the pink stereotype because I like pink. It's the fact that they use pink as an insult that rankles me. I like pink!

But yeah, she's hardly as hung up on pink as people suggest. Haters to the left.

[wingzerohugs]

I like pink well enough. Color preference doesn't have anything to do with who she is though, and the fact that she doesn't prefer it as much as people think she does kind of drives home the point. :p

*goes back to watching Boardwalk Empire* Not a lot of pink but it's jarring how GW some of the fashion is. @_@ -random-

Catch me on IM if you can. ;)

[omnicat]

Color preference doesn't have anything to do with who she is though

Yeah. People seem to have this crazy notion that because she wears a lot of pastels, among which pink, there is something wrong with her personality. Which is... wut? Makes no sense. Hence, the graphic.

Sorry I'm not getting online, I'm just way too busy trying to get stuff done. @_@

[rosalui]

I am surprisingly unaware of this. :O

(It's been a while, bb! How you doing, stupid insults to your favorite characters aside? :D)

[omnicat]

You are? Now I'm jealous. T.T

I'm okay. Just really busy because as usual, all the teachers have decided to put all their big assignments in the same insanely short period of time. *head desk*
