lirazel: An outdoor scene from the film Picnic at Hanging Rock ([misc] not a good insult at all)
lirazel ([personal profile] lirazel) wrote2012-04-27 08:59 am

as usual, some things

+ So apparently last night's TVD pissed everyone off? I haven't seen it yet, but I'm bracing myself for it. Do y'all sometimes wonder why we watch this ridiculous excuse for a show? I often do, and then [livejournal.com profile] ever_neutral writes perfect meta and I suddenly have feelings all over the place and I remember.

+ In case you missed it (read: in case you're not on tumblr), Joe Dempsie is perfect, and I want to glomp him:




+ For [livejournal.com profile] snickfic's amusement: this thing has informed me that Lauren is made of kitty cats, cherries, and awkwardness. With a dash of porn. WITH A DASH OF PORN. I still need to steal your "I'm bored and your porn is boring" icon.

+ Love Rain continues to be so perfect I could die. This week's episodes were so unrelentingly adorable that I almost couldn't stand it. I expect the angst is coming soon, but I have high hopes of getting a happy ending for Joon and Ha Na, so I'm happy. If you need something to watch, you should high-tail it over to dramafever.com and watch the heck out of this show. These kids have faces and sometimes they put them together.



+ I will probably try to FINALLY watch some of Young Justice this weekend. I have to write my [livejournal.com profile] rarewomen fic, but I'm hoping to get into this show because I am overwhelmed with love for y'all's feels. You know how sometimes you love a thing because your friends love it but you really know nothing about it? That is how I feel about this show. I love it though I haven't seen it.

+ I dreamed I was Fox Mulder's assistant last night (I have no clue where Scully was). Which I guess is my subconscious telling me to finish that damn show.

+ All of my GoT feels continue to be about the Stark girls. And Oona Chaplin being flawless. When is The Hour coming back? I need more of it in my life.

+ I can't decide whether I love or hate y'all who have been reblogging quotes from 50 Shades of Grey all over my dash. On the one hand: so incredibly, ridiculously bad that it's hilarious. On the other hand, I can never erase those things from my mind. [livejournal.com profile] dollsome has noted (and is indeed correct) that the series seems to exactly reproduce the feel of the Twilight books (not to mention Bella's characterization) only now with 100% more pr0n. It's kind of amazing. AMAZINGLY BAD AND DISGUSTING. I feel sorry for the women who are so into this series because they don't realize there's better porn on the internet for free.

+ 60,000 words on the novel! Only about 20,000 more to go!

+ I realize that some of you might not be nerdfighters (though you totally should), so if you missed this video you should watch it now. I really feel like it's one of the best that Hank has ever made, and it's dripping with truth.



+ It is Friday.

+ That's...it? Feel free, as always, to tell me about your lives, because I am always interested.

You're so easy, Kyrie!

No, but really: I have been meaning to for a while, and I'm at a lull as far as my kdramas go right now, so I'm hoping to get into it some tomorrow! And of course I will report back with my ~feelings~!

I AM. I am cheap as hell. It takes very little to send me into FITS OF UTTER JOY, especially where teen superheroes are concerned.

man i have some really important stuff to do right now but what if i just took this opportunity to spam you with all my icons

I am thrilled to be able to bring you joy!

You should probably do important things, but if you can do them and ALSO spam me with your icons, are you more than welcome to! I just don't want to distract you from your important things!

also

i forgot to mention one of the show's finest achievements

they used the "it was all just a dream" trope

and made it a psychologically horrific crowning jewel of the series instead of a trite cop-out

AND I HAVE OTHER ICONS + TEAM MEMBERS I COULD TALK ABOUT BUT I SHOULD PROBABLY LEGIT DO THOSE READINGS BEFORE CLASS. Just know that the ladies are the most amazing and also I need an icon of Rocket because she's only been in two episodes but she is scientifically THE GREATEST.
