I was insulted personally in another author's comment forum on the Pit of Voles. *sigh* One day, I will write a book--no a trilogy!--about all this. The first book will be called Fandom. The second book will be called Wank. The third book will be called Get a Life, You Stupid Asshat. Seriously, though, isn't this supposed to be fun?
I third what everyone else has said so far: I wanna read what they said!
Go here and scroll down to "bookminion" (is the fourth review at the moment). It's not even all that bad but more random...and also rather misguided since she/he/it is comparing my character of Maedhros living in a paradise realm to French Pony's Maedhros about a thousand years later after having been imprisoned, tortured, deprived of a hand, and having watched his family die one by one...and my character compared to that has any reason to be grim? *siiiigh*
Wowww. She (?) should at least have had the decency not to make her snipes behind your back. *Evil eye in the direction of bookminion* But then, subtly in critique isn't a skill everyone possesses coughbookminioncough. ;)
Actually, this late-breaking announcement comes from the organization known as ASS: Asshat Surveillance System. ASS has recently posted a bulletin that The Last Temptation of Homer has changed her name to The Battling Bard.
*evil grin*
And she has a LiveJournal now too! :^O
In fact, said comment came from someone called "bookminion." ASS is now keeping an eye on that one too. ;)
Awww! for Alex and his box. Sounds rather mess, if you say he's chewing it, but aren't messy things generally the most fun for pets?
Re Fandom Wank and the jack-asses at the Pit of Voles: They don't call it the Pit of Voles for nothing. Hope you're not too annoyed by all these incidents and random insults tossed by Eru knows who and why. Remember when I told you about a kid reading my totally slashy and incestuous stories? Said kid called me some pretty colorful names, but I found it mildly amusing, at best. Don't let shit like that get to you. But please do write that trilogy. I think it will be loads of fun to read. *winks*
Re: Saw 1, 2, 3... whatever!: The first one was scary and sick. My kind of movie. As for the sequel(s)... meh!
Those eejits really don't get to me. I find it amusing, really. It's like if a bunch of old ladies in a knitting circle suddenly and randomly started poking at each other with knitting needles. Also, this particular eejit never once commented on my work to me but took out her/his/its displeasure with French Pony. Ayiyi....
As for Saw...the first was rather innovative, I'll admit, though blood-phobic me went and read all the gimmicks before seeing the movie! :^D Now, though, the whole blood-and-guts-torture-movie genre is really wearing on me. Last year saw Hostel, The Hills Have Eyes, Wolf Creek, Saw 3, Turistas, and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning, all which seem to aim to outdo the previous torture movie in terms of blood, guts, and gimmicks. Horror movies in general of late make me want to put my head through a plaster wall. (Or maybe cast myself in a torture movie! :^D) Few really make any legitimate attempt at creating true horror, imo, aside from cheap scare tactics and lots of fake blood.
I often wonder why Bobby and I spend money on dog toys.
It's the same with our tomcat. He's got all of that pet toy stuff yet he finds things like cardboard boxes or sticks from the garden (or shiny stuff on our Christmas tree) soo much more interesting... ;)
And he also likes to lick the stuff in our dishwasher...
Besides the Christmas socks, my outfit is generally misguided.Oh please, my usual weekend-ly outfit is much, much worse... I often wear shorts, a tank top, thick, thick socks and legwarmers when nobody sees me (when I get too cold like that I usually drape my cashmere shawl around my shoulders... o.O). Add to that a vast array of mismatched colours and... well, you have the general idea. ;) I guess nobody would confuse me with the girl the know from university like that, haha. And last saturday I wore a normal outfit, but I had my hair braided up and a bandana tied around it all day (this had practical reasons at first because I was siwmming and my hair was still damp when I walked home, and later it prevented me from
