AtS

So I was all thinking to myself "Ya know, I got real excited about Destiny but I wasn't so excited earlier, and I'm very afraid for my pairing, and I did miss the last two eps, and I don't want to just jump in without knowing what's happening... so maybe I'll just keep recording it and recording it and watch it all after the season ends."

But my entire friends list seems to be in love...even the "negative" folks. So... I give in. I'm weak. I'll download Harm's Way and Soul Purpose this weekend and get my butt in gear. ::bows to the inevitability of Jossverse::

There is something both beautifully gratifying and horribly wrong about hearing Aragorn's voice come out of Duo Maxwell's mouth.

...although they do both have long hair.

Random side not on the Gandalf = Zechs part. I loved Gandalf's return from the dead in LotR. I had serious bad issues with Zechs's return from the dead in GW. Stupid, stupid, stupid just-fix-it answer that cheapens the tv series' wonderfully written and much-deserved death. In my mental canon, everything in Endless Waltz happened except it did it without Zechs. It's not hard to imagine-- he didn't do a whole lot for the movie anyway except show up. Such a waste, considering the grand villain he was in the series.

LJ for Relatives

Tonight on the way home from Mexican food out, I explained the whole concept of LJ to my mom. At first she didn't understand that all these journals were conencted to the same website servers, and wanted to know if there was some guy or office building somewhere that was cursing everyone for wasting all his storage space and bandwidth.

This is why I guess it is always best to start explanations from the beginning.

Anyway, I explained icons and journal styles, comments and friends lists, the great time spent on icons, degrees of privacy and general uses and purposes. I explained the stigma/etiqette that had built up around friending/unfriending people (my mom thought this was funny), and I even got as far as explaining kerfluffles. I dipped into explaining fandom_wank, as a community journal that existed once upon to mock kerfluffles in other people's journals. I explained that like in every social community, rules of etiquette have begun to develop that eventually stifled the anarchic freedom at which every community starts its existence.

My mom's final opinion was that "kerfluffle" sounded like a euphemism for farting. "Maybe that's even the sound it makes." ::makes raspberry noises::

Damnnit, Kakashi's so ruthless it's scary. And he always seems so nice, too. But when it comes down to things like this he has no inhibitors or scruples or sense of morals. He's an "ends justify the means" person to his soul. Ruthless.
