Yeah, I never post anymore. [Oct. 19th, 2009|05:56 pm]
[Tags|, , , , , , , , ]

I was tagged for this meme like a month ago and then I forgot about it, I am so sorry .___.;;

Respond to this post with "JEFF" and I will give you five questions to get to know you better. Repost and answer them in your journal. Pass it on, etc.
Questions y'all )
Hopefully I will not take another month to get back to you guys. But I might! :D

Also. Here is another meme I ganked from [info]ibbsc. Because I am cool like that.
You are in this meme. Yes, you. )

And you know what, let's just throw in another meme for the heck of it.

THE OTP MEME

Yeah.

I like Vampire Knight a whole lot. It takes it in turns to be really pretty and really adorable. Here is some of the stuff volume 6 contains:

- Canon straight romance (shocking)
- Canon gay romance (Aido's thing for Kaname is adorable)
- Subtexty lesbian romance (SOMEONE FIC YUKI/YORI NOW PLEASE PLEASE)
- Actual more girls
- Absurdly pretty hair
- Way-too-adorable kids
- Stupidly attractive administrators
- Amnesia
- Hot 19th century fashions*
- Unusually deep feelings
- A situation involving a heterochromic child with paralyzing kiss powers which may or may not all be an elaborate plot to get close to a girl

* It's no coincidence that all the hot presidents came from the 19th century.

Also I got Scribblenauts. It is a fun game if you have an imagination. And yes, the first thing I attempted to write was "Rickroll". (Spoiler: it works.)

Apparently I have some internet on this vacation. I must use these powers for good!

...And by good I apparently mean whining about Shonen Jump. Eh, close enough.

So, SPHFWLKaiB finally showed up in Bleach. You can probably imagine my reaction. But. Butbutbut. They spelled his name as one word - Szayelaporro, like that. I know that's probably closer to the original, and since the speech bubbles are so narrow it shows up as hyphenated anyway, which is almost like two words. So I really have no reason to be upset about this. But idk, man, I just think it looks dumb. Some other spellings they have that bug me are "Nnoitora" (I know it's not that different, but still) and (are you ready for this one?) "Cirucci Sanderwicci". Sanderwicci? What is she, a BLT? Dude, "Thunderwitch" is possibly the coolest last name ever. You can't screw that up. D: You know what, I think I am just going to be one of those people I hate who ignores canon and spells people's names however she darn well pleases. Like heck I'm giving up "Thunderwitch".

While I'm here, I suppose I should say something briefly about the other mangas in Shonen Jump. Because I can.

Naruto: I really like how Naruto calls Yondaime "Pa". They could have gone with "Dad" so easily, but I like "Pa" better. It gives him character. And it's cute. Pain was a cute kid.

One Piece: Nami/Vivi is so canon. Mr. 2 Bon-chan is amazing.

Ultimo: O.A. must love this series. There is no way Jealousy is a boy.

Yu Yu Hakusho: Natsume is surprisingly attractive. I like seeing all those people from forever ago.

Tegami Bachi: I would probably like this series better if the people didn't have such stupid names. Two words: Jiggy Pepper. Niche makes it worth reading, though. She's great. Also I like the term "Letter Bee". Reminds me of Smellerbee. Or Linda Ellerbee.

Yu-Gi-Oh! GX: I don't care.

Also I am going to see Wicked tonight yay.

[writingonegreatSONG |7 8 9 - Barenaked Ladies]

It's recently come to my attention what an embarrassing percentage of my thoughts is spent on attractive fictional-type guys. Which maaay not be the best thing to write about now that I have an attractive real-type boyfriend who reads this thing. So, uh, let's see what else is floating around in my head.

Okay, how about some brief thoughts on Bleach 224? So brief they don't even warrant a cut. )

Stuff got long, so have cuts for the rest too. This one is about Bleach also. )

Yet another meme, because I have no life, and also apparently never update LJ anymore.

RULES: Comment and I'll LJ stalk you to find THREE FANDOMS you apparently love. And then you answer these questions about them!

01: What got you into this fandom in the first place?
02: Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
03: Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc.?
04: Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
05: Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?

TMBG are apparently a fandom now. :P )

And, as is traditional, I conclude with something totally irrelevant:
"In the Watchmen: The End is Nigh game, the NPC thugs taunt Nite Owl by referring to Rorschach as 'your little girlfriend.'"
HAVE I EVER MENTIONED HOW HARD I SHIP DAN/RORSCHACH YOU GUISE @_@

P.S. PLAY DISGAEA.

[howdoyouFEELtoday? | :D]

I know I really shouldn't be squeeing so much over this pairing, considering it's from a cheesy '90s cartoon that's only good anymore for making hilarious YTPs. But. Um. Sonic and Robotnik get married (sequence starts 5:43ish). While Sonic is in drag. And Sonic kisses Robotnik five times. And then licks cake off him. @_@ And that's not even getting into all the show's other gay implications, like Tails calling a guy hot in the same episode. Or all the totally, totally canon Scratch/Grounder. "You gorgeous hunk of high-tech" indeed. Oh, AoStH. If you keep being this slashy, I may actually have to start watching.

Also, I'm sure old news is old, but it looks like we're getting some Scandinavia up in the Hetalia anime! Including Norway, Denmark, and Iceland! Which means they're actually getting canon personalities! Awesome! The only worrisome thing is that I've seen everyone's voice actors listed except Finland. I hope that doesn't mean he's not going to be there. I mean you can't have Sweden without Finland! *waves SuFin flag*

Okay I will stop talking now.

I am probably more excited than I should be that my limited knowledge of Japanese is now at the point where I can mangle certain YouTube Poop lines. ここに 地図が あります。どこに いきたいですか?FEAR IT, YO.

Have a meme I got from a place.
Pick six of your favorite fandoms and answer the questions (don't look at the questions before you choose the fandoms). For "favorite" read "current".

1. Bleach
2. Hetalia
3. The World Ends With You
4. Sandman
5. Lost
6. Kuroshitsuji


I bet you're really curious to see what happens. (Warning: contains fangirling.) )

I was going to make this part of a larger post, because I'm pretty sure no one cares, but then I realized that I had nothing else to post. So, uh, Lucas is out for AB and Tenho is in. Lucas's shirt was pretty impossible to find anyway (somehow ;A;), so this is probably for the best. I can find all Tenho's stuff on Amazon or probably in a store and he doesn't even need a wig. ~*~*~LAZY COSPLAY~*~*~

Ummm. So yeah.

I beat TWEWY (the first playthrough, anyway). Just throwing that out there. Also everyone should get that game. It's good and awesome. Maybe a little short, but good and awesome.

W-why did I have to find Axis Powers Hetalia scanlations at 11 last night ;_; US/UK? Sweden/Finland? Germany/Italy? Russia/Lithuania? YES PLZ. And who knew France, Austria, Canada, America, and heck, even UK were such good-looking guys? (Poland kinda gets on my nerves though.)

You know, I've never really held my childhood sacred. So when people do things like Rule 34 Pokémon or whatever, that doesn't bother me. But finding out that Abraham Lincoln thought blacks were inferior to whites? That's really depressing. D:

Also, I know I'm really late to the party with this like with everything else, but new fandom: Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog. Go, watch. It's short - only three acts - and really awesome. Great music, great acting, heck, it's Joss Whedon. You really don't need any other reason to see it.

And now I'll do a meme.

(Stolen from [info]athousandwinds, who I found... man, I don't even remember.)

List 12 characters from different fandoms first. (No cheating!) Then answer the questions under the cut.

1. Szayel Aporro Granz (Bleach)
2. The Joker (The Dark Knight)
3. Darth Maul (Star Wars)
4. Mello (Death Note)
5. Rock Lee (Naruto)
6. Lloyd Asplund (Code Geass)
7. Rick Murray (Degrassi)
8. Kirby (Kirby)
9. Desmond Hume (Lost)
10. Luna Lovegood (Harry Potter)
11. Phoenix Wright (Phoenix Wright)
12. Hal "Otacon" Emmerich (Metal Gear Solid)

The questions under the cut )

Be warned: I've found a community ([info]fandom_memes) full of these things, so don't be surprised if you get spammed by them over the next while.

[writingonegreatSONG |Dancing in the Street - David Bowie & Mick Jagger]

You know, I actually didn't come into 1776 with any slash expectations, but Jefferson/Adams is really, really canon. Just... "But, Mr. Adams". That whole scene. "But I burn, Mr. A!" "So do I, Mr. J!" And when Jefferson's leaning over Adams on the stairs, their faces get so close. That's got to be my second favorite they're-totally-making-out-even-though-their-mouths-don't-actually-touch scene, ever. (The first, of course, being David Bowie and Mick Jagger in Dancing in the Street (about 1:18-1:20). Normally I'm a Bowie/Mercury shipper, but to borrow a phrase from Mr. Adams, good GOD.) Unfortunately, the Jefferson/Adams doesn't go much of anywhere after that song, but trust me, that's plenty.

1776 is an excellent movie, by the way. And play, I assume, since the movie seems very faithful (heck, it even kept all of the songs). I can't remember ever having such a strong urge to watch a movie again. Unfortunately, I returned it to the library. But still. Great acting, great music, great historical accuracy. I recommend it highly.

I blame Phoenix Wright for addicting me to this song. I suppose this means I actually have to watch the series now... dunno if I'm looking forward to that one.

Also: the question finally answered...

"Don't worry, I'm a top."
"A top?"
"An aggressive top," Ryuzaki said. "I have never once been submissive. One of the few things I can boast about. I have never even been submissive to a traffic signal."

[writingonegreatSONG |WE LIKE IKE! WE LIKE IKE!]

A little context here: I'm in school posting on LJ while my friends kill each other in Brawl. Life is sweet. :D

So, what I did during the past month or so: Was emo, wasn't emo, got into more fandoms (Code Geass is AWESOME), got into more webcomics (Order of the Stick is AWESOME). Also, finally watched Quantum Leap for the first time. Where has that show been all my life? (And where has Scott Bakula been all my life? Mmm.)

For those of you who are geeks and wear clothing, I've found some great online stores: ThinkGeek and mental_floss. mental_floss has a smaller collection mainly involving famous dead people, while ThinkGeek has more general geek fare, including popular culture and memes. They're both worth checking out.

Those slashy Death Note things I mentioned )

Well, off to catch up on friends-only entries.

P.S. DEREK STEPHEN PRINCE IS GOING TO BE AT OTACON (I don't even play Metal Gear Solid...) OTAKON!! Not that I have any sort of way to get to Otakon ever, but...DEREK STEPHEN PRINCE *fangirls*

The thing about Degrassi is that it's Canadian. Which is excellent, but the accent can throw you off. When they're in the middle of a dramatic scene and someone goes "You don't know what you're talking aboot" or "I'm soarry", you have to pause and go "oh they're Canadian lol" and then get back into the scene. No, but seriously, Degrassi is a great show and I totally have a crush on Rick. :\

Has anyone ever thought of "Flannell" as a portmanteau for Flansburgh and Linnell? Not necessarily in a shippy way (although I do ship them wth D:) - I just thought it was somewhat clever. Of course, they already do have several serviceable collective names, like, say, "They Might Be Giants". :\

...Dang it, now I want to read some TMBG fic. Does anyone even write that stuff? D:

Song Lessons Meme )

You'd never be able to tell I only have eight RHCP songs in there. (Does "RHCP" remind anyone of "RCMP"?)

Also, most of you internet-savvy folks probably already know the song "Ievan Polkka" from the Leekspin video, but if you don't, go look it up. (This video has the full song with subtitles.) This is probably my new favorite Finnish song. Just makes you wanna dance. ^_^
