  • If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    There's occasionally massive flare-ups in the shipping community, but for the most part, people don't give a fuck.


    It really is just harmless fun for most people. It's like most things; 95% of the people involved are just in it for some entertainment, 5% of people are insanely serious about it and will tear you to shreds over it.


    In this particular case, there's been like... no drama, ever, regarding the shipping. It's just a whole bunch of people thinking that two characters are cute together and pairing them up.

    New flatmates now traded in for another Italian dudette and either an English or a Japanese dudette. Welp, whatever, I live pretty much on my own in practice anyway, so I'll see what the houseboss dudette decides in the end.

    Alex,


    The extent to which people take Adventure Time so seriously baffles me. I certainly appreciate the show and like the characters, but the whole show plays out like a chase scene between a clown car and a horse carriage full of otters. It thrives on chaotic, improvisational fun, and I think experiencing it otherwise is missing the point.


    I might be totally off here, but I think part of the taking Adventure Time "seriously" thing might come from the whole post-apocalyptic backstory and some of the more recent episodes like "I Remember You" and the three-parter. 


    Though I may not necessarily believe that Adventure Time is some super deep masterwork myself, I see no real reason to begrudge people for taking it seriously sometimes when the show's tone can shift towards that end of the spectrum occasionally.


    Of course, I doubt any of that stuff justifies shipping drama, assuming anything actually could.

    There was that one ad that got pulled, but that was more like drama on the creators' side.

    The way Madass Alex talks about it makes it sound like series never has any continuity or emotional and drama between the characters, which develop as the series continues. That it's all just tigers chewing bubblegum and magical fetus princesses.

    We should do something for Saturnalia :p


    December 17th through 23rd.


    Saturnalia is the best-known of several festivals in the Greco-Roman world characterized by role reversals and behavioral license. Slaves were treated to a banquet of the kind usually enjoyed by their masters. Ancient sources differ on the circumstances: some suggest that master and slave dined together,while others indicate that the slaves feasted first, or that the masters actually served the food. The practice may have varied over time,and in any case slaves would still have prepared the meal.  Saturnalian license also permitted slaves to enjoy a pretense of disrespect for their masters, and exempted them from punishment. It was a time for free speech.

    So, just to bum me out further the bus line I take is being discontinued, extending my commuting by about half an hour (about 4 hours throughout the day) and not allowing me to sleep on the way back...

  • We should eat Saturn for Saturnalia.



    Got a good recipe for the stuffing.
  • So... I started watching The Shield. These guys sure like their ambiguous main characters.

  • He who laments and can't let go of the past is forever doomed to solitude.

    I watched it back in the day, watching Michael Chiklis as a almost morally black (grey my ass) cop and comparing it to his later roles of The Thing and the dad in No Ordinary Family kinda clash with it.
