That Moment...

Really gives new meaning to the words "rough sex"...

Touche'.

And as for what @Cave Troll posted...There are no words...other than I'm scared as hell to hit the "like" button on that one. But no judgments, dude.

 

TMW you start writing your first fanfic.... though it's a bit Ironic FanFic. I actually hate the material in question but have an odd fascination with it, which has led to my own fanfic of it.

 

So what's it about?

 

Just to prefaced, this is a Fanfic, so expect glorious awfulness... . It's a fight between my own Kristol of Ancea and a mysterious woman from a far off world called Terra (Earth), calling herself Empress Maryssa, she was gifted with Mary Sue like powers by an alien entity she calls Yel. To combat her, Kristol merges with an Arch Angel, who gives her Marysue like powers as well. I am hoping to cheese it up as much as possible. I'm going to have as much of a blast with it as I can, leading up to my Wish Fulfillment story. which is oddly cannon, since each MC used in it was taken moments before their passing, including one from an Alternate Timeline. they disappear in their reality and appear on the Inter-Story Dimensional Star Ship, young once again.

I think you can guess the book in question, just check out the Books currently reading (Or what ever it's called) thread. I haven't read it since making my last post. I am toughly disgusted by the book.

 

Nope, not a clue. Sounds fun.
I have done something similar.

 

That's exactly how my only (un)fanfic came about. Had to watch the movie of "The Polar Express" three times a year for class and I just got sick of it, so I wrote Last Run. It's a fun way to de-stress over hated works.

 

Well, we is writerz...

And drugs. Let us not forget drugs. Yesterday I wrote an overdose scene.

ETA: Aaaaanyway, TMW you are celebrating reaching what looks like the end of the laundry pile, and in putting together the last load you see what remains is one of this color, one of this, and two of that.

 

Ooh why not make it a cocktail: Violent Sex while on Drugs.

 

The hallmarks of Humanity .

Sex, Drugs, Alchol and Violence. So let's Rock N' Roll like it was the 60s.

 

There probably will be some of that in the new book.

That book's gonna be a hoot to write...Gotta finish this one first, though!

 

I look forward to it with palpable, violent glee.

 

That moment when...

Shit, I've got to preface this. Phenotype correlates with culture and language, and that correlation varies with geography, but there's no causal relationship. Also, I just got back from a mini-vacation where the people share a strong physical, a not-insignificant linguistic, and a culturally-fraught relationship with my hosts of the past decade and a half or so, so I may be on edge.

But Mrs. A and I were in a restaurant tonight when two* visually Asian** people sat down at the table next to us. She spoke North American English with an inflection that I've come to associate with the children of immigrants from Asia, and his speech was that of a non-native north Asian. But not Japanese, as she spent quite a lot of her time explaining the menu and food culture to him, and seemed to have a fairly solid*** grasp on things.

Probably had to have been there to understand how weird it felt.

*I wanted to say "a couple" but a) they didn't project the image that they were "together", and b) are two old men sitting on a park bench a "couple" or not? Prove it.

** see the above comments on phenotype. Statistically, there have to be "Chinese-Americans" whose ancestors left the old country before at least two of my grandparents left theirs.

***at least as good as mine, maybe better

Like Romesh?

 

TMW you find something funny...and then share it.

 

You confused me now.

I wasn't being sophisticated, neew...he's a UK comedian and doesn't speak a word of Sinhalese. I wanted to find the Colombo airport clip where everybody's saying 'good afternoon/hello' in one language and he's grunting 'alright, haws it going, mate' in English. I have the same when Frenchies think I'm a Danish model.

Ahh...@CT, I think I got it.

Hmm:

 

(Le sigh)

 

TMW you realize that the occurrence which Hemingway called "a false spring" in A Moveable Feast is very real.

I remain in deep anticipation of that earthworm aroma which beckons new life, and the skirts, and the sun, and finally ice scream.

 

TMW you creep someone's FB page back to when the photos of the person are young enough to make you feel like, yeah... you need to leave now.

 

TMW you're doing your grocery order and you can't read your handwriting for one of the items on your "Priority! don't forget!" list...

(ETA: Success! Still can't read it but remembered what it was! Fresh ginger.)

 

Was he at least cute? ;-) Just kidding.

 

My wife won't let me write grocery lists (or any list for that matter) anymore because my handwriting is so terrible. I even get blasted at my job occasionally for it. I assume I could remedy the situation with deliberate practice, but that's pretty low on my list of things to do.

 

You're supposed to use a Dremel for that.

(Sorry. Couldn't resist.)

 

Don't you mean Violent Sox while on Drugs?
