I should know better, but you know. And then I went and rewatched most of Ouran Host Club last night and suddenly BURNED for Kyouya/Tamaki (GIVE ME RECS IF YOU HAVE ANY) and found this magical gem of asstasticness:

119. Tamaki Is A Rapist? » by [NAME REDACTED, WHICH SUCKS, BECAUSE OH MY GOD, THE IRONY] reviews
Just as the title says… A hidden side of Tamaki OH NOES! o.o Watch out Kyouya! Poorly done cause, I suck xD
Complete - Fiction Rated: T - English - Humor/Romance - Chapters: 7 - Words: 10,062 - Reviews: 50 - Updated: 4-6-07 - Published: 2-22-07

I can’t decide: is this a joke?  Is this something a frustrated writer posted on ff.net just to fuck with me?  I mean, because otherwise, why?  Like, it couldn’t be real, could it?

Also, regarding House’s seasonally-disaffected episode last night — spoilers ho!

I know that Harmony just came out but a) still downloading, and b) need to write up minipost about … uh, that one from last week, anyway, where John thinks he’s Batman?  And the show continues to fail at convincing me Katie and Rodney have even ever touched each other’s boobies?  Yeah.  But while I’m doing that (anduh,editingalotofpagescough), you guys should totally check out this dating website the BBC put together for the men of Austen.

FOLKS, DO NOT LIE AND TELL ME THIS DOES NOT DESERVE TO MAKE AN APPEARANCE IN OUR STORIED (LITERALLY) HISTORY OF PHONESEX FIC.  COME ON WORLD.  COME ON.  (Fair warning, video NSFW.  Also, awesome.)

For years, I looked down my nose at romance novels — then I got really bored and Lyra gave me Devil in Winter by Lisa Kleypas.  Then I read one of those fucking Bridgerton novels by Julia Quinn.  NOW I AM APPARENTLY WRITING SGA REGENCY AU.  sdlkjdf.  The only thing worse than this is the newest batch of SGA spoilers — which, if you have seen them, then I’m sure you rolled your eyes as much as I did because, COME THE FUCK ON, SHOW.  COME THE FUCK ON.

Oh, but for the curious, a little peek at my newfound shame.

(As Serial Karma pointed out, somebody else is writing SGA regency, too — dude, is there something in the freaking water?)

Dear People Who I Told I Would Be Editing My Book:

I am, sort of. In fact, I even bought sour gummy candy and beer for the process, but then I read a Lisa Kleypas novel and eight pages into assimilating hand-written edits with computer edits, I decided, I should probably watch SGA instead. AND THAT WAS THE RIGHT CHOICE TO MAKE AS MY BOOK TOTALLY DOESN’T HAVE BABIES OR GAY IN IT. Love, Pru.

PS, yes, you can tell by the tears I am going back to editing after this.

Spoilers and screencaps ho!

I admit it: I flounced off of lj in a giant cloud of hate memes and not being able to understand why fandom had a tendency to foster giant piles of whores — but I knew I wouldn’t be able to leave lj entirely.  I mean…everybody’s there.  All my friends are there.  How would I be able to comment on their stories and stuff if I like, went totally fandom wanky and deleted my lj?

But then there are days like this, folks, and people like this one, that really make me wish I’d hit that delete button and had been shamed into keeping away forever.

Spoilers ho, but no picspam, ya’ll are safe.

2008 is a Year of the Rat, meaning that 2 cycles of the Chinese zodiac ago, my mother was screaming shit at my dad sometime this year about how she was never going to have another baby again.  As such, I allowed my mother — in the grand and inexplicable tradition of my Motherland — to tie a jade pendant around my neck (I even promised not to take it off.  For a year.) and give me red underpants to wear.  Something about luck?  Apparently, it can either go really well for me this year, or super shitty!  I vote really well, so here are my goals for 2008 as follows, while I wear my jade pendant and eye the red underpants suspiciously:

(1)  Finish editing “Voted Most Likely”
(2) Finish writing “Drop Stitch”
(3) Lose 30ish pounds (I think?  I mean, okay, to be honest, I haven’t really thought this one through — as somebody at dinner pointed out to me tonight, “Do you have 30 lbs to lose?” and I was like “Yes.  I think.  Okay I need to look this one up.”) by starting to go back to the gym again.
(4) Find love

Obvs, last one least likely.

Happy new year, ya’ll!
