Why I hate so much ... WIP
On reading Josephine Darcy's "Stone Marriage", a really good Snarry. It has intriguing plot, grammar (do not laugh!) And it is developing a relationship accurately. Even if it seems that authors notes become longer and longer the more the story progresses (seems to be contagius on fanfiction.net, but well, as long as the comments on comments are not longer than the chapters and are not consisting of some stuff that makes sense only to the named reviewera it's okay). BUT: the fic is a WIP. I hate WIPs with all my heart, cause once you found a good story you are completely depending on the author to bring it to an end and I won't let blackmail me with disgusting threats "not to continue the story if there aren't any reviews" into bribing the authors into writing. When I write, I do it for my own fun. Comments are a nice bonus, but something completely beside the point of writing. And something stupid like "OMG!!!! I like it!!!! You're a genius!!!!" isn't something I crave as comment. But, hell, JoDarcy is good. Just hope the fic doesn't die the shameful death like this one opening part for a series from Andromeda-fandom I read today. It had a lot of openings to forward the plot. But it never got further than the setting of characters and a bit of background. Ain't it pitiful?
Btw, if someone is interested, Marriage stone is on Silver Snitch II or alternatively (cause of the server-thingy with the archive) on fanfiction.net.

WTF?
The silversnitch archive isn't there. Or "temporarily not available". What the fuck? I was in the middle of a story! If someone knows what happens there please tell me.
(As my luck has it, it was a surprisingly good story for once. Usually SilverSnitch-Stories are so full of grammatical brutality and toothache producing completely unrelated to canon plots that I don't read more than the first couple of paragraphs. But the archive is good, even if some - okay, a lot - of the authors could need more than a beta. But The Marriage Stone by Josephine Darcy was really good. I hope, the archive will not do the vanishing trick like the detention site.)
Okay, now, 10 minutes later, I found the TSS-LJ. Oops, I did not know of the problems. But if the problems were in the beginning of April, how come that I can not go to the site now that it is fixed? Mysterious.

things I absolutely must learn to respect
first How to make icons. Animated icons. I definitely want another one with my now-favorite Ringcon saying by The Parkers, "Back off I saw him first!" have. Must still do not even have The Parkers or their alter egos in the movie as pictures.
second I've already seen with so many people that one can hide the long entries in a link. Well, so long are my messages not currently exist. But what if I post longer, I will not just inundate my front page. And by the time it is just more and more. But how is this done? When I insert a link to a website, I would sometimes dub this as something else. It works designated by the same principle. But how do you do that
edited at 17:05:07: Yesss! Lj-cut text = '' is the solution! It looks really cool!
third how to change default names "Leave comment" for? 've Seen many that they actually have something fun like "pick a flower." Perhaps it is only paid accounts, who knows
edited at 12:06:07. Oookay, that was a little trickier. The column with the text options for change is I only noticed this when I lay out my second LJ, which is used only for experimentation, had chosen. Otherwise I would have to search for years .... I know one hundred per cent that I had then changed somewhat, but probably I did not go beyond presentation and Colors and because it is so boring and meaningless I was also watched nciht further. The bigger problem is that I just did a blockade and I find nothing more than a slogan than the LJ-Gondor-tree-quote from The Parkers. And that is neither representative nor is he looking for short enough. At least I can change the categories quite nice.
To be continued ...
LJ, Lach risk!
Ok, I swear, I never have to "Dawson's Creek" confessed, just like on those other pitschesüßen High School series, which are merely brainless zombies. I have from time to time at most ne result seen because there was nothing better on TV (and I prefer to watch Andromeda and Farscape, which I as the worst SF series of all Consider times before I voluntarily doing to High High Scholl or OC California). And the last thing I'd read of the series would be fanfic. I thought at least. But then I've pushed me from side to side and from there to this http://www.geocities.com/mct3k02/frames.html page. I still get cramps laughing. It's so bad fanfic with such evil comments that it already is good again. My favorite word today is VULVARABLE. :-D

Feeling quizzical?
Oh, oh, you'll love it! I was in the mood to take a couple of quizzes, the Firefly quiz yesterday be blamed, and I'm especially looking for a certain quiz, from which i only remember that I was a Nymph. And here some words on quiz-sites. Blogthings is stupid. If the answer is so obvious, why would I feel compelled to take a quiz? And the result, that I'm only 11% homophobic and that it means, that I'm a tolerant person doesn't even have a merit to be witty and funny to post. Quizzilla is the best that I found, even if does have a lot of garbage, too. But here and there I found some really funny quiz. I found out, that I'm a dark elf, that I would be a pretty mermaid, if I were a magical being and that my goth fairy-picture (or whatever it was) isn't possible to link to my livejournal (but trust me, it was beautiful). On the minus side, it is nearly impossible to find a quiz you're looking for. Go-quiz is nice looking, even if there isn't so much you can find. But the acronym thingie - I ABSOLUTELY loved it!!! (though my real name wasn't so interesting, but hey! I always knew the real Me does exist somewhere in the www :-D ) Here it goes:
| H | Helpful |
| E | Extreme |
| L | Loud |
| L | Luxurious |
| W | Witty |
| E | Exciting |
| I | Inspirational |
| S | Serious |
| S | Sloppy |

Oh, yeah, thats me, the muse of politeness, artistry and amiability ***pointing helpful to the inspirational and witty***. :-D Although my friends would probably snort and mumble something like "yeah? more like serious and sloppy".

I'm Mal, huh? He is a character I liked the least in the series, figures I would be him :-D I thought I would be Jayne, I always liked HIS guns, but alas, being Cptn. Tightpants isn't so bad, at least I am not a reaver and get a nice arse :-D. The quiz made me sort of want to look the series again (even after the third time still this good, hmmm), but I have a work day tomorrow and I'll never be able to stop in the middle. ***logs out, humming the intro, and petting the cover of the DVD-Box of the series***
Random rant: Teh Zwinky is dead ... Hail the books!
My Zwinky was dead for some time now, but my hope of its resurrection died today. Stupid pet. I shortly created fourth outfit for my hottie and two different boyfriends and have a first friend there. but no, now I can't get the wardrobe to open or the outfit to change. I can't even install it again. All I can do is to log in and log out. Ah, well, at least my Zwinky died well-dressed :-D
Looked in the bookstore and found that there two new books published: one from the Terry Pratchett Discworld-Series and one from Artemis Fowl-Series. Yay, Yay, Yay, it made my day!!! Love it. Have to get this new fix. :-D
Or, and finally on the subject of the snarry - been reintroduced to http://www.restrictedsection.org . Wonderful archive, at least good betaed and from the random fic I read the authors have at least some understanding of creative writing. Am totally disgusted with what is lately posted on http://wwtw.thesilversnitchtoo.net/fic/index.php , it is totally dreadful. And the discussion board on the RS.org is totally cool, fell in love with the Homonymicide Morgue at first read. It is better than any fanfiction *giggling*.
