can we all just pretend this subject line is clever?

1. If I see one more person warn for slash, ESPECIALLY in the same line as something actually deserving of a warning like dub-con, I think I might scream.

2. I'm having trouble pasting text into the LJ text box. The lines of text always end up breaking and then I have to spend forever scrolling through the whole thing and fixing it so it doesn't look like I'm trying to pull some e.e. cummings shit. Anyone else having this problem?

3. I'm getting kind of tired of seeing characters with eidetic memories popping up all over television, especially when their eidetic memory is presented as their biggest defining characteristic.

4. I'm putting together a picspam entirely devoted to dimples. I'm super excited about this. \o/ THardy doesn't really have dimples, so let's go ahead and post a couple pictures of him now so that I won't be sad later when he isn't in my picspam.

Plus you know, in FAKE, the wrong people ended up together. There was way more tension with everyone with that "jerk" boss guy, but nooo everyone has to want the scared blond doesn't have sex/scared of gay guy.

Double ugh. Sometimes I wonder if it's a cultural disconnect sort of thing, because it seems like that sort of thing happens a LOT in manga/anime. Or maybe crappy writing is just multicultural. =P

FAKE. Two *cough* New York *cough* detectives *cough cough cough* fall in love, or something. One is openly bisexual and slutty (Did I mention New York cops?) and the other apparently never has sex ever.

Slutty bisexual chases after him for seven books with ridiculous "cases" with scenes usually ending in, "no,no no yes, NO!" only to suddenly culminate in (consensual?) buttsex at the end.

Oh, I remember that one now! I think I got about two books in and got distracted by something better. Glad I didn't waste my time on the entire thing. =P

I think it was one of the early non-rape yaoi manga and so it's mostly well known for that reason and not like...because it's good.

...still vaguely rapey though. I think some yaoi artists are confused about the difference between this is uncomfortable/painful face and this feels good face.

I remember people reccing the hell out of it when I was first getting into yaoi and then reading it and wondering what the appeal was. That makes a lot more sense.

I've noticed that too. =/

To be fair to the slutty bisexual whose name I can't remember, he *did* eat the other guy out first. So... there's that.

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

How very considerate of him. XD

[rispacooper.livejournal.com]

Hey you got recced on crack_van just now!

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

I saw! I'm kind of ping ponging between disbelief and flailing right now. I never expected to ever get recced on there, especially with a rare pair ficlet like that. XD

[rispacooper.livejournal.com]

I passed over it the first time not seeing it was crack_van and was like, oh she has a new ficlet, I will read it in a second, and then my brain went, wait, why did she format it all crack_van style? haha

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

It's all part of my diabolical plot to try to convince people I'm better than I actually am. ;)

[rispacooper.livejournal.com]

Everyone should format that way!

"Why you should read this fic: BECAUSE IT'S AWESOME."

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

Hahaha! I might have to actually do that the next time I post something I really like.

[rispacooper.livejournal.com]

"Because I rock at porn."


Or, to be honest, I'd be like, "Because there is fingerbanging."


Doesn't that say it all?

[coffeebuddha.livejournal.com]

All that needs to be said. ;)
