Jun. 19th, 2003 02:58 pmRENTON (voice-over): Choose life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a big fucking television, choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players, and electrical tin openers.
Choose good health, low cholesterol, and dental insurance. Choose fixed-interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends.
Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose a three piece suit on hire purchase in a range of fucking fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who the fuck you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pissing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarassment to the selfish, fucked-up brats you have spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose life.
But why would I want to do a thing like that?

I found an LJ community for Hellsing! Wheee....

the middle of good and evil. you dont mind
humans, but you like going along with your
insticts as well. you show your opposite sides

merciful, but suddenly harsh and cold. you
sometimes make a game of it. are you kidding?

I was hoping to get one of the Walentine Brothers, the one who laughed his head off and said Fuck every third word. But he wasn't an option. :pout:
I also found this and it's second page here from my school's anime club mailing list. It's a short comic that's sort of meta-fannish for anime fans and people curious about anime.

Now it's off to read Buffyfic. I've been slacking. I think it's a denial thing. The truth of The End is finally setting it, a month later.

Oh, and another Trainspotting quote, because I lurv that film:
RENTON: He's always been lacking in moral fibre.
SWANNEY: He knows a lot about Sean Connery.
RENTON: That's hardly a substitute.

Date: 2003-06-19 03:43 pm (UTC)Trainspotting is one of my favorite movies ever (probably second to Pulp Fiction). That awesome monologue is my favorite part too. Mmmm Ewan... *sigh*
Oh, and I know what you mean about denial. My sister thought I was insane today because I was listening to "End of the World" by REM and was moved practically to tears with nostalgia.

Date: 2003-06-19 03:46 pm (UTC)I've actually been reading everything BUT Buffyfic for the last week. It's strange. I have alannafic and wisteriafic and other people's too just waiting for me to read...but I just can't start. And I haven't looked at my friends page in a week.
It's shite being Scottish!

But being American with Scottish blood means I get to be proud of the cultural history and yet avoid all that economic embarrassment of being conquered. ;)

Just thought I'd add to the random Trainspotting quotes.

:blinks: I didn't think you were. I certainly wasn't insulted. That was the whole point of the movie quote. :)
