First off I realized I don't have any Final Fantasy VII icons, but oh well, that doesn't really matter cause it doesn't change the love I have for that game one bit. Second, I know it's probably unfair and puritanic... but I really hate the "ff7 fandom" that came about after Advent Children. Note the quotation marks? It's because it's not really a fandom. In my belief a fandom constitutes of people that actually take the time to get to know the characters and immerse themselves in said fandoms canon story lines etc. ......but the reason this rant came about is that while looking for pictures of Reno in ff7 I stumbled upon a "fan" of FF7!AC..... her 'knowledge basis' for the movie ('cause obviously she hadn't played the game) made me cringe and want to punch her. And if this hadn't been the internetz I probably would have. Arghhhh okay I'm gonna go throw a real tantrum in some corner of my room or blow off some steam by going out for a run instead of being a real, in the words of my dear friend Jack-in-the-Box, CUNT!
On a completely unrelated note (or actually slightly related on the topic of fandom):
mssamyx! I have officially fallen in love with Generation Kill. So much so that I couldn't wait with watching it until I got back home! It's not as good as BoB, which I wasn't expecting, but it really gives me the kicks I need right now!! Also already slightly fallen in love with the fandom after stumbling over a AU set in East Timor during the '99 referendum which was so awesome that it deserves a post all in its own right! Which I shall produce as soon as I've given the Author a proper review ♥
That's all for now... but hence forward I will post more often! (I have some personal fubar news to share with you guys, but saving that for later! It's all good!)
