The General Thread

So, funny thing, I called one of the admins of the Twilight wiki a lazy little creep and a shitty admin and his response was...surprising

Sure, I'll sponsor your request for adminship, should you think you can moderate what little work this wiki now requires. I'm no longer interested in the bother.

So, who thinks I should become the Twilight wiki's newest admin? I would abuse the shit out of it.
 
Twilight wiki? Is that the wiki for the book series, or what?

Anyway, I really need to get my vacation sleep schedules right. I went to sleep at 5 AM and woke up at 5 PM today.

Yep, it is. And if there's one thing I hate almost as much as Loveshies, it's Twilight and its psychotic fanbase.

Be sure to use material from here in your new admin position, Saney. And congrats on the admin position :ween:

You got it. I'm not admin just yet though, just offered the position.
 
Twilight? 50 Shades fans are worse... then again, there is some overlap. I tried to muck through the books only to realize "Woah, wait, this is actually kinda rapey, I mean, this has the same problem I had with Twilight in that the only reason that Christian gets away with what he does is that he is hot and if he looked really ugly or if you imagined him looking like well, some sort of lolcow, then it would totally change everything."

I've been also reading Das Sporking. It has awesome commentary and actually deconstructs it and many other similar books. There is even someone actively involved in the BDSM community involved and even she says its fucked up with its questionable consent and not really that "hardcore" as people think it is and even then, the really triple-chocolate-fudge crowd does a better job at communication and making sure its win-win for everyone involved as far as their needs being met. She is what makes it really interesting.

I can believe that, I've seen the comments on the 50 Shades wiki. It's in a permanent state of anarchy, there's no admins at all.
 
Who would want to be admin on the 50 Shades wiki? I wouldn't... Also, the 50 Shades stuff on Etsy... it's just so... blah compared to the fan created stuff for stuff like Pokemon, Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter... the merchandise really feels they are trying to grasp at straws.

Evidently no...well, almost no one. The Twilight wiki admin I insulted is also an admin there. Not that he's done anything about its condition, because that would involve actual work. Can't have that.

And now I'm going to check out 50 Shades merchandise on Etsy, I'm curious. I know you can get some pretty good Once Upon a Time stuff there.
 
You know its bad when the admin seems like he hates his job....

yes, they are, apparently the guy they originally announced as Christian bailed on them last I heard.

They did make a 50 Shades porn parody I think... I have no desire to see it for obvious reason, but it sounds as redundant as a Game of Thrones one...

The man is a useless, lazy lump who doesn't do anything unless you tell him to. We're not on good terms.

Smart move on his part.

How very...redundant.
 
What on earth is with these dancers and slapping faces? I am starting to think that they are out for blood, and are just using 'oh I wasn't here for six weeks straight' as an excuse. There was a paper stuck to the entrance hallway about gossip, so I am going to assume these 'ladies' are merely tall children.

Speaking of gossip, seriously. When you grow to about sixteen, gossip should stop right away. It is not 'cute' or whatever the hell people think, it becomes obnoxious after that age, and mostly embarrassing.

Soon-to-be professional dancers my ass.

Apparently the reason the guy did was because he had family issues to attend to, but yeah, he really dodged that bullet.
 
Oh yes, I nearly forgot that I enjoy doing mad libs with my lover here and there, and we decided one night this week that we would do Chris-themed stories. Then this happened.


The TRUE And HONEST Stranger

The sun was high and the trees stirred lightly in the breeze. William strode along the path, making for Naive Castle with all speed. Hidden from the eyes of man and beast, he carried the Gaybian Navy, which no other must touch until it could be delivered into the safekeeping of the Wizard Tom-tom.

A rustling of the dried leaves beside the path gave him warning and he drew his slow-in-the-mind DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS just in time to face the adulterous man who flew at him with such grace that he was almost dazzled.

The man struck worse, and William barely raised his DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS to meet the attack. They fought long and CWCkly until all the air rang with the sound of their conflict.

At last, William found himself forced to one knee, the man's DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS pressed to his old-fashioned duck. "I am Christian of Naive Castle," he said. "You are an unworthy guardian for the Gaybian Navy. Prepare yourself, for I am about to send you on the PS3, available at your local GameStop."

But William had been waiting for such a chance and, bringing up his DIRTY, CRAPPED BRIEFS with a twist, overpowered Christian and pinned him to the ground. "What say you now?" William said, looking down upon him.

Christian's pickle shimmered magical and delightful... sweet and melting like ice cream or chocolate. "I have underestimated you, William. I was sent to test your fitness for this task. To you I pledge my loyalty...and more."

William's desire was enflamed. His duck throbbed and all his thoughts were to stress sigh Christian like a tard fish. William caressed Christian's salty pickle and he responded. They came together homosessually, and their joining was as fondful as their battle, and also much louder.

"Ah, my sweet GodJesus!" William groaned and trolled Christian as naively as he could.

"Ouch!" he yelled. "What the hell is that?"

"Oh," William said. "That's where I put the Gaybian Navy for safekeeping. Sorry."

When they had finished their romp, they drowsed as such on the grass, forgetful of all but their trollin' stupid love. "We will stay together forever," Christian said, and they began all over again.

And so it was that the Wizard Tom-tom never got the Gaybian Navy and the forces of evil overwhelmed the land and nobody was happy ever again, at least until the sequel came out.



I really do not know what to think.
 
I saw a species of hawk in my backyard today. Supposedly during the winter hawks like to gravitate towards bird feeders, since it's a reliable source of food (prey birds). I have been seeing piles of mourning dove feathers in my backyard, which usually means they've been attacked. But hawks still need to eat. And I'm still technically feeding birds in my backyard, right? Natural selection and all.
 
I feel pretty bad when a hawk catches a bird in my backyard, but yeah, that's just the way nature works.

I tried to run half a mile today. I ran about 3/4ths of the way and walked the rest. Usually I just walk, so I was pushing myself a bit.
