a visit from the goon squad

10 years ago today I posted my first Alex/Lorelai fic.

Time's a goon, right?

Sigh, I'm feeling this today, because I've been like, these youths don't understand what fandom is supposed to be! They seem to think it's all about the shows, that the end goal is mediocre 'representation'. Fuck that. None of them can write for shit. What happened to creativity? To unexpected ideas? To crack worthy of the name?

So, I ended up here. :D

HEY IT'S YOU!!!  How've you been?

Jesus,  I'm so old that I stopped watching TV altogether.  No idea what's going on in fandom now.  Last I checked,  there were lesbians on Once Upon a Time?

Paget is returning to CM for a couple if episodes this season. Goddamn I may have ti watch that shitfest.

Youths are just annoying.  Especially teenagers and people in their early 20s.  They shouldn't ve allowed to speak or make decisions.

Hey you! :D

Eh, I'm all right, just trying to get out of grad school--no one told me getting out was harder than getting in. I keep getting stuck teaching those annoying youths, though the joke is, this semester I get to teach them how to give speeches. My entire job is listening to their opinions. *sigh* (Also, how did I end up teaching this? I'm like a weird moonlighting instructor--give me a class, and I will teach it, no background knowledge necessary.)

Did you hear? They hired Paget back as a regular! I really haven't watched/thought about CM for years, but if people are talking about it again, maybe I could write fic for it again. My fic writing ability has died recently. I go back and read my old stuff and think--who wrote this? this is good! I could never write that now.

I hope things are going okay for you right now. Missed you. :)

Yeah, I've heard that about grad school. That's possibly the only good thing about law school; it ends, so indentured servitude can begin. I can't believe youths these days were born in the 2000s. When I was a teenager. I don't even recall being that young and I certainly don't recall being allowed to have "opinions ( ... )
