grrrr...

People, please tell me to stop reading random people's reactions to the new S8 comic. I've loved what some of y'all on my flist (and, by extension, some of the people on your flists) have had to say, but there are people justifying evil all over the internet, and I cannot handle it. It just makes me so furious, and I want to engage all of them, and that will lead to my life being sucked away, and I could be doing way more constructive things like writing angsty Spuffy babyfic for [livejournal.com profile] seasonal_spuffy and beta-ing for my favorite people.

Tell. Me. To. Stop.

In other, happier news: BUFFY SUMMERS. DONNA NOBLE. TAMI TAYLOR. AERYN SUN. JOAN HOLLOWAY. VERONICA MARS. PARKER. AND OTHER AWESOME WOMEN. DOMINATING FANDOM STEEL CAGE MATCH.

PLUS: MY ICON. YES.

Also, I'm watching Wizards of Waverly Place (yes, I'm lame, but I have a massive girlcrush on Selena Gomez), and OMG SELENA GOMEZ AND DAVID HENRIE. IT SHOULD BE ILLEGAL FOR ACTORS PLAYING SIBLINGS TO HAVE SO MUCH CHEMISTRY. STOP IT NOOOOOOW. YOU'RE MAKING ME UNCOMFORTABLE.

The trainwreck I'm watching now. It was interesting for a while, because [livejournal.com profile] 2maggie2 and someone named KingofCretins kept on saying this is not a good thing with rational explanation and some Bangels still jumping up and down on their beds with joy, and one guy named Chuck2it going off stream-of-consciousness style on the poetry of B/A with references to his 9/11 experience. I didn't follow.

I'm following that one, too! I just want to hug KingofCretins EVERY TIME HE POSTS. And [livejournal.com profile] 2maggie2 is knocking it out of the park, too, being awesomely snarky to the Bangels.

YES! There's so much stream-of-consciousness going! Comments where I don't even have any idea what people are saying!

It's kinda fun to follow (and thank God there's no class tomorrow or I'd never get any homework done), but the wank is wanktastic and the brilliant points are expressed brilliantly. I'd say our side is representing itself very well indeed (and I'm now endeared to many Xander fans). It really is fascinating to watch once you get over the sick feeling in the stomach the actual issue created and watch for the sociological aspects on display.

You're right: there have been some wonderfully eloquent people arguing for us (and yes about the Xander fans, though I don't particularly care for Xander).

It really is fascinating to watch once you get over the sick feeling in the stomach the actual issue created and watch for the sociological aspects on display.


This is very true. It's harder for me to get over that sick feeling, though, because my life has been pretty sucky lately, so I'm depending on fandom in ways I probably shouldn't to make me feel better. *sigh*
