If no boom yesterday, boom today. - Or: THAT was the next explosion.

Fine. I deleted yesterday's rant, but today, it's going on air. Let there be Drama.

"It really sucks when a canon character, particularly a major one, is OOC."

Which totally doesn't apply to at least half the characters, even the major ones in their respective canons, on DF. Oh, no. Of course not. Especially not those your puppets like to interact with. Or those of your clique. Never.

"And the way she treats people that she should respect-"

Whom, please?

"The worst example was the dog-petting thing, really"

And that is necessarily OOC? Because someone who tries to convert people's way of treating house-elves would never ever tell them how to treat animals? Sorry, I don't get it.

"If we're thinking of the same person, then she hadn't even read the bloody books when she joined."

Has our dearly beloved Eöl- and Saeros-typist ever read the Silm? Just asking. Or did she just need every possible reminder about the character because it's so far in the past and she can't remember anything?
Would you swear that all of our LesMis muns have actually read the book/s, or don't you think one or two might just be running on the musical and/or one of the many movies?

By the way: She had.

"...especially about her trying to break the magical rules of the universe."

PROVE. IT.

Seriously? The last thing one needs are immature, inane, selfish teenagers, who stick only to the rules they like or made up themselves, who're incapable of getting their own lives sorted out and wine about not being respected when they've done nothing to deserve respect, telling them what to do.

And let me just add something entirely for myself, because I've been swallowing it for far too long:
YOUR. PRESETS. ARE. NOT. FUNNY. ANYMORE. They were never really funny, and now that the amusement has worn off, they're really just annoying.
The same goes for the Eruawful "your mom" joke, which wasn't even funny when I was in kindergarten and CERTAINLY shouldn't be funny amongst people who have been out of kindergarten for a while.
Also for "O RLY", but that's not your fault alone, so I'll let that pass.
Anyway, rule of thumb - and listen up now, because this might be important:
Passing fads are only funny as long as they gracefully pass when their time to die has come at last.

You know what? Excuse my Middle English, but FUCK YOU.

Comments

First: Ooooh. My bad for misreading that comment, then. Or maybe it just wasn't entirely clear from the context. I mean, it wasn't entirely clear that by "not getting one's own life sorted out" I meant mostly the same shit I do with my RL. Such as spending too much of it in front of a computer, failing at what should be more important, and being just generally not much good. And lo! It's not below the belt to say that of myself, but it is when I just generally put it there and everyone reads it with their own interpretation in mind.

Second: Wellll, there was that time when Leany - asked that you discontinue using one of your presets, I think, which didn't yield much more than "It's just for fun", and some of the snide side-remarks, and there's M's behaviour yesterday, which happened before the post...

Lastly: Well, I tend to respect my friends too, but that doesn't make them authority figures or shining paragons of virtue, really. And if they behave in a silly or downright stupid manner, I either snark at them or tell them. But maybe I'm the only one who can treat the same people with both respect and humour, depending on the situation.

First: It was not at all clear from the context, and I am well aware of that.

Second: Leany did not ask me to discontinue use of any of my presets. I have log of the conversation. M was being a bitch, and still is- Just ask Cissa.

Lastly: Depending on the situation. Thank you.

First: Then don't complain about people reading it that way.

Second: That was a while ago. Which is why I brought it up in order to show that you didn't start to, shall we say, show anti-Leany sentiment just yesterday. I'm weird like that.

Lastly: Yes. Which is why she usually treats Fëa with respect, but when he was being a right old grump, she made fun of him. Don't worry, though, Fëa didn't get the joke either.

[gods-griffin.livejournal.com]

First: I didn't complain, darling. I explained.

Second: How is that anti-Leany? And you don't know how I feel. I may act a certain way because I'm having a bad day, but you don't know how I feel or what I'm thinking.

Lastly: Fair enough.

First and second in one: Of course not. But I only get what I see. Often enough, it looks like bitching just because you don't like the person in question. If that's wrong, well, there's that context problem again. Which actually seems to be what this whole thing boils down to.

[gods-griffin.livejournal.com]

Context is a bitch.

[oloriel.livejournal.com]

That it is.
