Man, I'm tired.

• My car is now stealth!car! Sure it doesn't have A/C, but it can sneak up on you now! *pats new muffler* (Okay, yeah. I really do need to get a new car since there are other minor things wrong with it as well. But...I'm cheap. And if I can make it go for $93 instead of spending $16,000...)
  
  
• Confession time. I've never read the msscribe thing all the way through. I started a couple of times when my flist would point to it, but kept wandering off. I think it's the "Oooh, SHINY! *is distracted by photoshop/games/playing on LJ*" thing.
  
  And so I've decided I either need the bullet point version of the msscribe thing, or else I need to see it in stick figure form. *nods*
  
  
• I think I need to go back to bed. *YAWN*
  
  
• Rome Rome Rome Rome! ROME!
  
  
• I'm kinda consumed by Rome at the moment, but I'm also getting the urge to get back to classic Who. In the mood for Two right now.

Quiet stealth car for under $100 - Good!

And I see your crow bar and see you a P-90!

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Yes! Under $100 stealth!car! Woo! I'm a happy person.

I...have nothing to raise.

[greenpear.livejournal.com]

But I still like your crowbar. In fact, it was the inspiration for my P-90 icon.

[misssara11.livejournal.com]

Yay for steathcar!

And more YAY for Two! *points to icon*

Seriously, you'll be cheering and tearing your hair out over Rome. Trust me on this. *Pete Tyler thumbs up*

[greenpear.livejournal.com]

Must ask, where did you get that icon of Two?

[misssara11.livejournal.com]

The same place I got this icon of Jamie!

She had a ton more (including Life on Mars ones), I think, at her LJ.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Two really is adorable, no? He's so timid!

And Rooooooome!

I've never read the msscribe thing either! I honestly really have no idea what it's about, and I've tried to care, but I think I'm just too self-involved. It takes a lot to get me interested in people I don't know.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Heh. Yeah. I know it's the ultimate in wank or something, but I find it so hard to be interested in wank/the underside of fandom most the time.

[goldy-dollar.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I've always felt really uncomfortable with the idea of mocking and laughing at other people for entertainment, so I've always felt a bit turned off by everything on f_W.

I started watching The Tudors on demand yesterday. I see much viewing in my future (looks like the first season is being taken down September 4, so I must finish watching by then!) I shall have to check out Rome.

FYI, I think you'd like The Tudors...

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

I've heard of the Tudors and that I need to watch it. Doesn't look like it's out on DVD yet, but I've saved it on Netflix.

[makesometime.livejournal.com]

Please don't hurry to see it. It's horrible, horrible stuff. I may be saying this because they BUTCHER history - I've heard Rome is veeery good at history, so they can't be compared - and most of the people are miscast, especially Henry VIII.

Anne Boleyn is pretty though /shallow.

[diavestra.livejournal.com]

I just have the Season 1 finale to go. I quite like it. I imagine Season 1 will be out shortly, as it's going to disappear from On Demand and I'm assuming Season 2 is going to start...

[buckbeakbabie.livejournal.com]

I read it and couldn't believe that I was IN the HP fandom back then, and missed all of it. Seriously, ALL of it. The wars between the two sites (I was a member of BOTH, but only really active on one...) I was blissfully unaware. *boggles*

*wishes I could be immune to the wank in the Who fandom*

Ha! That's pretty amusing. :)

*wishes I could be immune to the wank in the Who fandom*

Yeah, tell me about it. I try to ignore it as much as possible, right up until something pisses me off.

I can't even draw stick figures, but the current wank is because she reappeared a year later to post an "apology" in five parts:

1. I thought it was funny! I was a n00b! I didn't know any better! (For years!)
2. The nanny did it!
3. None of you are real people anyway so it doesn't matter if what I did hurt anybody! No, wait, it wasn't me! It was the nanny!
4. I don't care what you all think of me and I'll spend nine pages telling you why!
5. My head is so far up Cassie Cla(i)re's ass that we share bras!

And then she went attention-whoring in the comments to the f_w post. It's a pretty sad excuse for a wank, really -- the only reasons anyone cares are nostalgia, overdue ficathons (er, that one might just be me), and major boredom with "lj sux!"/Aja's t-shirt inferno.

(Speaking of which, the best comment in the whole thing was something along the lines of -- I didn't bookmark it, shame -- "Aja, she's a nutjob. Don't get worked up over it. Go read some porn. Make some icons. Burn an overcoat.")

5. My head is so far up Cassie Cla(i)re's ass that we share bras!

BWAH!!!!!!

Okay, Cassie Claire's the one who wrote that Very Secret Diaries thing, right? I remember being told a while ago that she (or whoever the author is) didn't take kindly to it when people write that kind of thing for various fandoms. And I was sitting there thinking that the author completely ripped it off from Bridget Jones, and so she might not like it, but tough shit.

"Aja, she's a nutjob. Don't get worked up over it. Go read some porn. Make some icons. Burn an overcoat."

HA!!!! Okay, how does Aja fit into this whole thing? The only way I know her is from the shirt-burning video. :D

5. My head is so far up Cassie Cla(i)re's ass that we share bras!

BWAH!!!!!!

You think the bras are part of a metaphor. They're not. (Okay, she only mentions the one bra. Call it poetic license.)

Heh. Yes, that Cassie Claire. She plagiarized a bunch of other sources, too, and seems to have known about msscribe's sekrit evil deeds at the time.

Aja was BFF with Cassie Claire and therefore also with msscribe, but she and Cassie Claire had a falling out before the msscribe expose happened last year and she was cast out of the inner circle like Adam and Eve from Eden. Yes. Only I don't think she was naked.

I once read a summary of the MsScribe business, but can't for the life of me remember where. It was complex and totally nuts.

If I remember, I'll try to find it for you.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Oooh, thanks! Yeah, I definitely need things simplified for me to care about it.

[alliesings.livejournal.com]

Yay for Stealth!Car. It took a few hundred dollars for mine to have the same effect, but it's seriously cool to actually be able to drive without thinking I'm the #1 cause for noise pollution in our town.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Heh heh. Yeah, I can't believe how loud they are without the muffler. It was a bit embarrassing.

And, dood. There a FW wiki now...

Yeeeeeeeeeesh. That's just ridiculous.
