phosfateThe state flag, located directly outside our office window, is displaying horizontal tendencies not seen since the last set of astronauts left a stars and bars on the Moon. The sky - and, indeed, everything else - is the same shade of grey as our computers and furniture. And the snow has started, cold and vicious-looking. The effect of the whole business is, to quote that famous passage by the Bard of Avon, "Reallye fucking depressinge. We shalle freeze our asses offe."
I sit at my desk snarfing Jolly Rancher Cherry suckers and trying not to whine out loud. *whine.* Oh sorry.

Date: 2002-01-30 01:10 pm (UTC)Y'know, sometimes I'll hear some dame refer to a performer (with whom, if there is a just and loving God, she has never had the slightest contact) as "Billy" or "Nije" or whatever, and I have a near-uncontrollable urge to punch her in the mouth, just as hard as ever I can.
Is that wrong?

Dear Lord. I just read this. I hadn't previously seen it.
I love the rant, but some of the replies made me ill. One in particular.
Paraphrasing: "We knew what we were doing was bad, so we hid it away from you all! It's a risk we take!"
And that justifies it HOW??? And if you're willing to take the risk that people will not like what you're doing, then you don't get to pull the "Oh, I'm CRYING 'cuz you're so MEAN to me!" card!!!!
Morons. Psycho morons, but morons nonetheless.
From one of the replies: I write David/Gillian fanfiction. Ok, now make a snap judgement about me.
Oooh, I'll be happy to. You're confrontational. Also, from things you previously said about what you write, you clearly care more about your own pleasure than about other people's feelings.
Whereas the people who are "unfairly insulting you" are worried about the feelings of the people you're hurting more than yours, because they're the innocent victims and you're the bad, evil nasty person. Your argument about the rant doing exactly what you do doesn't hold water.
We pour our hearts and souls into the fanfics that we write.
And you're writing something really sick, but that doesn't make you insane. Right.
And for the record? I like Tea. But pretty much the only thing I've seen her in that I can recall is a made-for-TV movie filmed in Toronto (at least in part) called "The Counterfeit Contessa." It was cute, and she did just fine in it.
Thanks, Ann. That was fun.

I haven't seen the inside of Yoinkys since that fatal evening, but if you're gonna lurk there, bring a bottle of water. It's hotter'n fuck.
