This is what happens when I don't have internet for a day.

I am very stressed out right now. I've been awake since 5 am. It was nice and peaceful for a while, but then my parents woke up.

( Parents, why do you make a big deal out of everything? )

rant, life, first world problems, movie, this post is too long, the world revolves around me, parents, pointless post

Oh God, that sounds like my mom. She freaks out when someone is coming over and likes to pretend that the house is spotless all the time. I'm sorry, people live here. It's not going to be trashy, but it will look lived in.

Did I not give you alternative links for Merlin to bypass all that? It'll be 2014 by the time you own all of the series since season 4 doesn't come out until then :|

I finally got my mom to calm down when people come over, but there is no hope for my dad. He's really high-strung, about everything, and his anxiety rubs off on me. Sometimes I think that living with my parents is detrimental to my emotional health.

You did, but they aren't working on my computer. It might just be my Flash player being fickle.

2014?! What is wrong with you, BBC? Making DVDs doesn't take that long. I know you can do it, because the Doctor Who boxed sets come out within a year.

My dad doesn't care, but my mom is super OCD about it. She's been home all week and we've all stayed upstairs in our rooms because we know going downstairs mean we'll have to clean ALL THE THINGS. I know living with my parents is, so I wouldn't be surprised if this is a worldwide phenomena.

Which one did you go to?

Yeeeep. Season 3 is coming out in January, but it aired here LAST January. It's pretty ridic you have to wait a year for the next DVD set.

lol I love all your Merlin icons kyogres December 30 2011, 19:18:07 UTC

It's weird. I never got stressed like this in high school. Of course, back then my only "chore" was homework, which I had hours of every night, college applications and stuff. Now I don't have school or a job, so I feel like I should be helping around the house. Unfortunately, sometimes "helping around the house" involves pointless cleaning like this.

I tried several of them. The one that had videos from lots of different sites would only play the Megavideo videos (and I did double-check Noscript to make sure it wasn't blocking anything). The Megavideo site that supposedly gets around the limit won't load any videos. I guess it's not a huge deal to take a break every 70 minutes. The main problem is the quality and the video freezing up every minute or two.

Do you know when the episodes get released on Hulu, compared to when the DVDs come out?

My house is so messy and not-clean, but my mum makes me vacuum every week anyway. She says that since I have so much stuff/mess I need to vacuum more, because dust collects more quickly. >_

kyogres December 30 2011, 17:22:53 UTC

My house is cluttered but generally clean. (My room is clean and uncluttered, except for the times when I have to clear everything off my shelves.)

I will admit that I don't vacuum as much as I should, but I don't see a point in vacuuming the day someone is coming over if the floor looks clean. It's not like they'll be eating off it.

Also, how does vacuuming help with dust? Unless you're using an attachment, it will only vacuum up dust on the floor.

I guess it vacuums the dust that's settled on the floor so there's less in general? XD

OMFG I LOVE XMFC. <33333333

From what I understand though, it's a reboot of the original X-Men trilogy and the Wolverine Origins movie. So it's an entirely separate universe than the world/canon created in the other movies. I don't think the original trilogy is as good as XMFC, and it doesn't have all the gay subtext. XD

kyogres December 30 2011, 21:30:03 UTC

Yeah, XMFC is one of my favorite live-action movies. <3 (I know it's weird to classify movies into live-action and animated, but I have a really hard time getting into live-action movies, in part because I have problems recognizing faces... which leads to a lot of "wait, which character is on screen right now?" confusion. I have to really like the movie and be paying close attention to details in order to get past that.)

So Wolverine Origins isn't even in the same universe? I really hope they make some sequels to this movie. I need to know what happens with Professor X and Magneto. They had better make up in the end. ;___;

Yeah, everyone said there was gay subtext. I was like "you guys probably just have your slash goggles on too tight", but after watching the movie, I cannot unsee it. I wonder if the directors realized this. XD

nagasasu December 30 2011, 22:03:18 UTC

I'm fairly certain Wolverine Origins isn't in the same universe. XMFC has also been green-lit for a sequel; Fassbender and McAvoy are contractually bound to finish the trilogy if it gets the green light.

The directors and actors troll the fandom pretty well. McAvoy was all, "they should've had sex, gotten married, and then become friends." XD
