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

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.

I know exactly what you're going through. I admittedly have never read the comics. But I can't. look. away. For the first time EVAR, I'm following a thread on a forum because some of the people are doing insightful textual analysis. Of course, the Bangel shippers turn it around and call the insightful textual analysis character bashing, then turn around and do some bashing of there own, seemingly oblivious to the obvious implications that this is not a good thing.

As I just said in the BSV forum thread, I think the comics are Joss taking the absolute piss...out of the characters and out of the fans.

For the most part, I try to ignore the comics completely. I don't read them (or any comics, for that matter), so the most I usually do is shake my head at posts on my F'list about the latest madness. I do get quite annoyed, however, when I write a fic and label it Post Chosen or Post NFA and someone pipes up with "I didn't know that happened in the comics" or "but such and such happened in the comics so this can't happen". Grrr!

*sigh* Can't type!

Hahahaha, the NOT DEAN icons are amazing. I'm glad we live in a world that will mass protest a fictional character from winning an internet poll in the form of eye-catching graphics. NON-IRONICALLY AND WITHOUT SARCASM DO I MEAN THAT.

I have my OTFSCMW (One True Fandom Steel Cage Match Winner, obviously), and that is a dude, but! It is nice to see more ladies getting recognition.

...

am I a bad person if I find all the comics stuff terribly amusing?

I'm right there with you -- I'm finding it all mesmerizing, and needing to back away slowly. I was feeling bad for the bangels until I read the gloaty comments, and now, I'm all like -- DUDE! I suppose the blind spots are all in the eye of the beholder?

OTOH, my son is a big Waverly fan, and I agree with you -- that is all KINDS of wrong!

Hon. STOP.

Go and watch the actual show, instead. Much better.

Aeryn Sun....LOVE HER!!!!!

(Ahem, sorry. I just get very excited when I meet another fan of Farscape.)

But to continue, I have a huge girl crush on her. I blame the leather and the female power. And John. Yum in his leather pants as well :)

Damn your icon!

Stop reading random people's reactions to the new S8 comic.

I've pretty much stuck to the snarky people and

2maggie2's analysis (which, I'll be honest, I thought was snarky until about halfway through). I've already reached my puking quota for the week, so I don't want to risk it...

What the hell is the deal with Buffy/Twilight? I've been on vacation the last few days so have therefore missed the wank.

Dear Lord, I don't think I realised how strongly opposed I was to Buffy and Angel getting together again until I read that forum thread. *vomits everywhere*
