This might actually be more traumatic to me than this entire past two weeks.
Guys, I cannot even look at this research tying diet soda (OH MY GOD MY SWEET DIET CHERRY COKE) to heart disease. I cannot even look at it. People who know me know that I have a psuedosexual definitely addictive relationship with that stuff; you wouldn’t like me if I didn’t have my Diet Cherry Coke. Seriously, what the fuck? I always knew they put crack cocaine in it, but I was like, “That’s fine — that’s just going to make me model thin.” But heart disease? The sad part is, I’m actually weighing the benefits like, “Well, I am probably going to die young anyway from my associated risky behaviors (ie: also the inadvisable drinking I have been doing), so really, is heart disease such an issue?”
Meanwhile — I’m wondering, how many of you would actually be interested if I did a big kdrama/jdrama/twdrama/cdrama intro post the way I did with yaoi? I mean, it can kind of be intimidating to get into, but things have already improved so much since you know, there’s live online streaming of a lot of episodes — and I have already suckered people into watching Bad Couple and Coffee Prince, there’re a couple of others I would highly recommend. Bueller? Bueller?
::Looks up from HP:: Yes.
Oh, and, soda’s bad for you? … I’ll take ‘Things we’ve known for about 20 years’ Alex.
Huh, I’m kinda bitchy today. Anyway, it should probably be noted that I don’t drink soda (or any carbonated beverages) and never have, and have always been looked at as somewhat of a freak.
HMM. See, I’ll drink it anyway (but not the diet because, ugh), despite the fact it makes me feel like I’m having a stroke.
I guess you’ll just have to decide what’s most important to you. *nods*
Sorry, totally unrelated - was that David Nykl on Eureka tonight?
I’d want to read it.
Ooh, yes please. I’d enjoy the hell out of a Pru-guided intro to k/j/c/twdrama.
But are you watching Yamada Tarou Monogatari? Because you should be. It is all my happiness, plus grocery shopping gay love. Or something.
OK, no. Because you’ve already suckered far too many innocent people into far too many fandoms, and seriously, you’re like a one-woman gateway drug enabler…person. Thing.
That said, yes, of course you should do an intro to k-Drama. Because we are all your bitches.
Well, since you said you didn’t read it, let me tell you; it’s not that bad. The lead researcher guy said that it’s probably not actually the diet soda, itself, but rather that soda drinking in general is normally a sign of terrible eating habits, which is what causes the heart disease.
So keep with the soda, and lay off the greasy foods! :D
Also, I’d be interested!
Definitely do an Asian drama intro thing. I’m very intrigued by them, but also a bit confused.
I sort of lurk your journal… But I’m de-lurking to say that I’d be very interested in an Asian Drama thing. All the ones I try and pick out on my own never turn out good…But Coffee Prince?
