I've been so absent lately, it's pathetic. IDK, school happens, and this term it's happening all over my weekends. I think I'm going to take a two-month introductory Latin course over the summer, so that I can A) do a classics minor next year and B) stay in Montreal as long as possible instead of heading home to my tiny suburban town ( Read more... )

O HAY I HAVE MISSED YOU is that okay to say despite our not-very-lengthy acquaintance?

Latin is awesome! I did 4 years of it and it's an A++ language and very easy at first.

Ohhhh you like the season so far? :/ At least we are agreed on missing S2 dynamics. :D:

I don't post ever now except for... single sentence posts. :/

YOU ARE THE NICEST. :DDDDDD

4 years? I am always impressed with people who stick with languages. Did you end up actually able to translate Ovid and Virgil and all those dudes? *____*

I do like it! IDK, I have a really low bar, and I really like new Ruby, and if they'd just add a lot more Sam time and take out those awful crying/confessing scenes it'd be fine. Also, Monster Movie kind of makes up for every bit I haven't enjoyed. But YYYYY, they really need to get back to S2. I miss crazy John Winchester ;_;

I like your single sentence posts! I am reading them now and you are LOLARIOUS. We should make a joint vow to, you know, actually update. WHAT IS NEW IN YOUR LIFE, MY MOST EXCELLENT FRIEND?

THAT IS AWESOME. I have a ridiculous love for Ovid and old guys writing boring things (THOUGH LOLOLOLOL ANCIENT ORGIES?) and I have always wanted to take Italian/Spanish/a little French would be useful right now too. ONE DAY LOLOL :/ Though two months of nothing but Latin might be crazy. Don't be surprised if I end up pitifully crying for help. DDDDD:

IL NEW RUBY AND YOU ARE A FOOL >:( But YYYYY, this season is clearly inferior to the Supernatural of yore. DD on your least favorite bits?

OMG I READ YOUR METAPHYSICS COMMENTS AND THEY MAKE ME D: FACE EVERY TIME. THAT SHIT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE AT ANY HOUR, NVM ABSURD HOURS OF THE MORNING! >:( I used to love doing laundry in the dorms just for that reason. Sometimes it was the most sociable part of my day. DD ON THIS CRUSH, THOUGH! I will live vicariously through you :(

I can't read CM badfic at all! I keep trying but it makes me cringe and long for the show. We are two ships passing in the night ;_;

LOLOLOL I SENSE AN EPIDEMIC OF RUN-ON COMMENT DISEASE

see the problem is I have no frands who have time to listen to me now ;_; manasseh February 1 2009, 05:07:28 UTC
My Latin teacher was this little old lady who made us read this story about some guy who got turned into a donkey by the gods, and then at the end of our group translating someone realized that the story was set in another story. So as a group we were like, "What's the other story about?" and she told us it was a "*AHEM* romanbacchanalianfestivalcoughcoughcough" and I was like "LOLOLOL ORGY OMG LET'S TRANSLATE IT" so we did ( ... )

lolol my frands just think i'm boring (and i am!) peganix February 1 2009, 05:26:01 UTC
LOLOLOL that Latin story sounds really cute until you get to the orgy! I hope I have a nice little-old-lady Latin teacher. Also, "Roman Bacchanalian Festival" is kind of an amazing euphemism ( ... )

we can be boring together! manasseh February 1 2009, 05:38:20 UTC
I hope you do too, bb! Or at least a teacher who's really into the language, that always helps. :Db

INORITE? Way to break something that wasn't broken, PTB! Lame. TBH I'd be tempted to say Sam's never going evil, but since it's SPN I'll bet that he'll go evil in the third-to-last episode and then Dean will save him in the finale and it'll be stupid because we won't care anymore. SPN is all about doing a season's worth of shit in two episodes. lol WORST PACING EVER.

They've been dangling a lot of stuff and haven't reeeeally delivered on any of it IMO. SPN is so good at being mediocre now it's not even funny. :/

lol the only reason I could do it at all was because I knew that if he was a jerkface about it I could easily kick his ass. :D: sadfax: he has a weird muppet voice. Like, an actualfax weird muppet voice. It is hilarious. And sad. But at least I can always hear him coming when he's on patrol so I can look appropriately cool-slash-casual? :D: Who am I kidding, I always look like an Oreo-scarfing lol fatty hobo whenever he's on ( ... )

OH GOD that is horrifying but so plausible. DAMN IT, SPN WRITERS, GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER. I don't want to be that old person going "YEAH BACK IN THE OLDEN DAYS EVERYTHING WAS AWESOME AND VEGETABLES TASTED LIKE CANDY" but I really thought seasons 1&2 were well-paced and adeptly done. And then last season's arc was pathetic and I loyally blamed it on the writer's strike, and this season has just been not good. But I am actually enjoying a lot of the MoW and flashback episodes, so I will just mediocre on through.

LOLOLOLOLOL MUPPET VOICE! :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDD Y, it would be hard to find that threatening. You should offer him an Oreo! It would be the #1 way to seduce me, at least :D:

NOBODY FLASHES TOO MUCH CHEST HAIR LIKE GASTON! But this guy came close, especially he was really pasty and gross instead of buff and manly. Why yes, Gaston is my ideal man.

HERE IS SOMETHING I LEARNED: CONVERSATIONS WITH YOU ALWAYS END IN THE BEST GRAPHICS EVER. EVER. OH, I LOL'D (but with a deep undercurrent of anger. FUCKING GREENLAND >:((((((((

S1 was enjoyably un-srsbzns until the finale, at which point it became srsly awesome. S2 was probably the best the show has ever been and ever will be. I have successfully blocked out S3 and S4 is so far good when it's good and horrific when it's not. :/ I kinda think the MoW/flashback episodes, no matter how good, aren't adding anything to the season since the current arc is supposed to be IMPORTANT and WORLD-SHAKING and OCCURRING RIGHT NOW. So instead of seeing a whole bunch of stuff that could be awesome, they're just feeding us material we should have found out back when we still gave a shit. I mean, yaaay Winchesters in school! But I would have dug that way back when it was still relevant. :(

My floormate suggested that but I comfort-ate them before he came back. :(

Oh my god that's so gross and hilarious. Pasty AND hairy AND blinged-out. NOBODY'S YOUR IDEAL MAN LIKE GASTON!

:DDDDDDD

IAWTWHOLE SUMMARY OF ALL THE SEASONS. Though this last episode (which I just finished) was kind of A++ in calling back old dynamics and stuff, and still fitting in with this season. LOL PATHETIC RATIONALIZING :(

A whole bag of Oreos >>>>>>>>>>>> human relationships! TOTALLY TRUFAX! Also, I'm about ten seconds from running out to the depanneur for cookies right now. OM NOM NOM :DDD:

LOLOLOLOL &panda; But I don't have any good pictures for you except this terrible cap:
