I know everyone and their sister knows about this by now, but... DUDE...



BEST.

WANK.

EVER.


The absolute bestest best.


One fic writer has the stupidity and audacity to ask for payment for fanfiction... and all of tv ficdom jumps on her throat.

That's solidarity, my friends. Who knew this is what it would take to make us all agree on something?

Though we be different, though we have wars great and small, though we ridicule one another and make stupid icons about it, when one of us decides to leave the coven betray the pack turn away from the teachings of all fic traditions lose sight of the mission make money off illegal copywrited property...

...We are as one.

::sings:: WE! ARE! FAMILY!

And as they say in Gungrave and the Godfather films... you don't. betray. the. family.







BWAHAHAHAHAHAAHA!


BWAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAHA!

Um. Ahem. I'll be over here. In the corner. Laughing for about FIVE years.

EDIT: on a more personal note-- well, acutally, I don't have a personal note. I didn't know cousinjean, though I do remember thinking her fic was pretty enjoyable and it's entirely probable I might have exchanged LJ comments with her at some point when I was more active in BTVS fandom. I don't think she's a bad person, but this is one instance where I am going to take all the pleasure possible and laugh at someone's pain. And fandom's pain. And all the pain. Because today I am just that shallow, and this is just that funny, and I thank my lucky stars I don't put that much emotional stock into much of ANYTHING I do online, because if I did, I'd have to take this all seriously.

In the end, we will all float on.

In the rain gutter. With Pennywise the Clown.

Goodnight!

I'm sorry!

As much as I love the song, ever time I hear it I also think of IT and "We all float down here. You'll float with us."

I CRIED WHEN GEORGIE (that was his name, right?) DIED IN THE BOOK. (I hate it when bad things happen to kids in books and movies.)

that was his name. I remember it was the FIRST chapter. It was the friggin OPENING of the book. And I almost threw it aside and gave up just from that. Nothing else in the book was as horrible as the first chapter.

Hey, I don't remember if I've asked you this before, but do you watch anime?

Re: little paper boat! AAAAHHH!!!

[spicedrum.livejournal.com]

I don't. I have in the past - My college roommate and I used to go to the anime group's periodic all-day marathons and catch stuff, and we'd rent what was limitedly available back then (i feel like such an old geezer), but I've never been into it hardcore where I know different series or can keep characters straight and such.

the things I remember watching: I found Akira boring, and I love the original Vampire Hunter D., Bubblegum Crisis was amusing, Vampire Princess Miyu was cute. I'm not sure if it's considered "real anime" because it was released as a US feature film (I have no idea what your fandom definitions are over thattaway *g*), but I love Princess Mononoke.
